Think he will start with gaston , it's a free game no one is expecting us to get a result but 60 or 70 mins worth of a match winner may be enough . Arsenal have not been as dominant at home over the last 2 seasons but we must cut out the individual mistakes and defend better as a team .
The thing that is apparent in this squad is the team spirit is great and they all want to work for each other and the manager

And anyway, why should we care. We shouldn't let sympathy for the Arsenal fans ruin our victory celebration.

Well Im glad he is relishing it because nobody else is.”
I'm certainly looking forward to it almost as much as you would look forward to a trip to an all male brothel.
I reckon we have a decent chance of getting something there so try and keep up bigfella. Has your Uruguayan found anyone else to moan at as Nigel isn't in his league anymore?

I think tomorrow could be an absolute humdinger between the finest two pure footballing sides in the country. But the thing we've got that they haven't is Rickie Lambert. He'll be the difference.

I also speak as a man with a bet that is a tiny bit too large for comfort (as all good bets should be) on Saints to be in the top ten by season's end. I firmly expect Nigel still to be at the helm, ready for an attack on a top eight finish in 2013/14.
My post was an attack on the doom-mongers who normally post on here. Be patient, they'll be along soon calling for his head.

PS. Thanks for reminding me of the odds for the game; I think there's value at 9/1, definitely.

Say NO to negativity.
The only bet I'm putting on is that I can stop gambling.

Nobody cares about wenger and what he has to say. we know he is frustrated by defensive teams that come to the emirates - the fact is he has won nothing for years and all his best players leave - what a joke !!
Tomorrow we head to north london to FIGHT AND WIN !!!
