Md9 Posted 7 July 2020 Posted 7 July 2020 Quite excited for this. Watched the palace game which was the first game since it all started as I haven’t really got back in to wanting to watch it. Would love a win but wouldn’t be to disappointed with a draw. Attack them from the off and they will crumble.

Yeah giving a kid his full debut away at Arsenal in what's pretty much knock out football for us seems kinda unlikely. Especially with Fuchs and Bennett having finished the game fine against Palace.
StanSP Posted 7 July 2020 Posted 7 July 2020 Has to be 3 at the back again doesn't it? Same back 3 that finished against Palace. Justin RWB. Don't mind if Albrighton or Fuchs play LWB. Ndidi, Praet Tielemans in middle. Vardy and Kelechi up front. Press Arsenal high and they don't like it, especially Luiz if he plays. It'll all result in Aubameyang getting a dodgy penalty in the 96th minute anyway. Who's the ref tonight?

Bert Posted 7 July 2020 Posted 7 July 2020 Yep, it’s the ref that dislikes us the most. Chris out of his depth Kavanagh

Clever Fox Posted 7 July 2020 Posted 7 July 2020 We've got to improve our passing which has been sloppy at times, otherwise they can hurt us. I just hope Ozil doesn't play. He always causes us problems.
coolhandfox Posted 7 July 2020 Posted 7 July 2020 Would take a point, but it's about time we beat these away. Think the last time was in 1970's
Guest Posted 7 July 2020 Posted 7 July 2020 massive, massive game. A win today and we go 12pts above of Arsenal with 4 to play. Also Sheff U play Wolves at the same time, a win for Sheff and they are 10 behind with 4 play and wolves 9 behind with 4 to play, a draw would be almost as good. Spurs didn't look good in their win yesterday and have to play us and Arse and would be 13 behind with 5 to play. Basically a win for us sees us on the verge of clinching top 5. The pressure would be greatly reduced and 3rd, 4th and 5th would go down to the end of the season. Just win Leicester.

Granted I didn't see Saturdays match due to my brothers wedding but a debut with 3 atb and therefore less defensive responsibility and more attacking freedom seems a fair chance to me. And we still have the backup if it doesn't work out.

Ric Flair Posted 7 July 2020 Posted 7 July 2020 1 hour ago, Bert said: He might not even make the squad, but it’ll only be for cover I’m sure. I imagine with Maddison and Chilwell out and possibly Perez that we're 3 squad players down and 9 subs can be named so at least 1 academy player would be on there? I'd imagine the wing backs will be Albrighton and Justin and either Fuchs at LCB or Bennett in at RCB and Evans or Soyuncu moving over? Would be incredible to see Thomas thrown in from the off though, Arsenal have a habit over the years of being the absolute pits when academy players are thrown in against them. 2 assists and a goal on his debut from Luke incoming.
Scotch Posted 7 July 2020 Posted 7 July 2020 Guys..... We ALL know that we are starting this game with two DM's. My guess would be Ndidi and Choudhury so we may as well bitch about it now and get it out our systems.

If we have a positive attitude and set up to have a proper go at them we have a decent chance of winning it. if we go down fighting so be it but a decent display and points on the board puts all the pressure onto the chasing pack.
Collymore Posted 7 July 2020 Posted 7 July 2020 Surely Vardy is going to be rested at some point? He's played like 90 minutes after every game hasn't he? Then again, he's not like your average player with those red bulls!

I completely agree injustice have a feeling he will, he seems fond of ot every now and again.
FerrisBueller Posted 7 July 2020 Posted 7 July 2020 Do we know if Pepe is playing tonight? He was excused at the weekend as his wife was in labour.

Chrysalis Posted 7 July 2020 Posted 7 July 2020 Is going to be a very tough game, if only this was a few games later where they would be in beach mode. But we need to be aiming to win this. So a real test for rodgers and the team.
