weller54 Posted 5 August 2017 Share Posted 5 August 2017 Horrible opening fixture to be given.. Never beat them! ...Performance important here more than the result, as can't see us getting anything from this. 2-1 defeat. Vardy with our goal.

warnerbro Posted 5 August 2017 Share Posted 5 August 2017 First game of the season. Need to start in positive fashion. Go in with a strong mentality looking to get something from the game. Arsenal are nothing special at all as we have all seen in recent seasons. Always think our performances other than the title winning season have been lacklustre. Be nice to get a good result here for change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox92 Posted 5 August 2017 Share Posted 5 August 2017 Can't wait to for the day and to get down there. Not looking forward so much to the performance. Can't see anything past a solid Arsenal win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sublime_Coatsworth Posted 5 August 2017 Share Posted 5 August 2017 Leicester to go two up in the first ten minutes, Maguire and Vardy. Arsenal string 100 passes together but go nowhere. Sanchez gets sent off 5 mins into the 2nd half. Iheanacho scores. Late conciliation goal for the Arse fails to mute the first "Wenger out" chants. Arsenal 1:3 Leicester Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxfanazer Posted 5 August 2017 Share Posted 5 August 2017 Not expecting to get a result but ya never know. Last night proved that we're capable of scoring goals from pretty much nothing. Vardy's always on the move and we have players that can make those passes. Shakey has some serious decisions to make all over the pitch. Who plays alongside Vardy? James, Iborra or Drinky? Albrighton or Gray? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxes21 Posted 5 August 2017 Share Posted 5 August 2017 Schmeichel Simpson, Morgan, Maguire, Fuchs Mahrez, James, Ndidi, Albrighton Okazaki Vardy Iheanacho on for Okazaki at 60mins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheppyFox Posted 5 August 2017 Share Posted 5 August 2017 The best time to play a bogey team if when they've not been given chance to find any form, I fancy this one. 4-2 Leicester, Nacho for a brace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a massive Fan of his but Yes we need to plan for life without him. start Gray and let Mahrez be the impact sub until he is sold or decides he wants to stay.

foxy boxing Posted 5 August 2017 Share Posted 5 August 2017 If there is a good time to play these it is the first game of the season when you don't know how good they are or whether there still finding form after the summer break!. we all know how Arsenal like to play and it is up to Skaky to find a way to beat these and get at them from the off. they don't like the physical game and we need to keep the pressure on them.

Melbourne Fuchs Posted 5 August 2017 Share Posted 5 August 2017 Last Season we had the easiest opening fixture possible, Hull were being asset stripped and yet they still managed to beat us. Based on the fact that this is possibly the hardest opening fixture we could get, I'm optimistic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnglishOxide Posted 5 August 2017 Share Posted 5 August 2017 I think we would all like to see us go balls out 442 with a Vardy, Iheanacho, Mahrez, Gray, Ndidi and James front 6. Catch them off guard at the start of the season. However, I think Shakey will play it cautious and go with Iborra as the third CM and Albrighton instead of Gray and Kelechi, leaving Ndidi with a bit of freedom to support Vardy. A point is surely the target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blabyboy Posted 5 August 2017 Share Posted 5 August 2017 As others have said, right at the start of the season is as good as any time to play them. I think at least a draw, but hoping to sneak the win.. Albrighton and Vards (just to p155 off Wenger and the fans about his transfer policy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozvaldo Posted 5 August 2017 Share Posted 5 August 2017 We're in the changing room. Shakey, with a string of sausages around his neck, plays a VHS video of last season's opener at Hull. Vardy crushes that 3rd can of Red Bull against his his after seeing all those chances he missed. Gray, pouting in the corner, scratches his pink bits in anticipation of actually starting a game. And Wes instructs Appleton to continue to manually rotate his portable jerked chicken rotisserie during the first half, for a half time snack. We go out and spank them 4-1.

cc_star Posted 5 August 2017 Share Posted 5 August 2017 I dunno, I fear a thrashing Almost every BMG attack in first half lead with a pretty clear chance on goal, it was as if Ndidi & James were non-existent, with Maguire out of position having crossed the halfway line & lack of sharpness from the other 3 2nd half was obviously different, but unless we start like that - we'll already be 3 or 4 down by the break Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
