Arsenal v West Brom

400th league win. Nothing lesser would do. And some retribution for the last year's match along the way?

Line-up this year >>>>>>>>>>> Line-up last year.

When is Abou Diaby ever fit? He truly fits the definition of dead wood.

** Van Persie could start on Saturday

** Diaby still three weeks from fitness


** Wenger - Away form hasn't been good enough

** 'Sir Alex Ferguson's achievements are remarkable'

** Wenger - We can't afford to be complacent

** Wenger - Too early to draw top-four conclusions

** Wenger - Manuel Almunia did well on loan

** Wenger - We must improve defensive record

Well, the last game I remember Diaby playing in was that catastrophe against Newcastle

You remember the last time he played lol I still don't remember when that was. If Diaby miss any more games this he must be sold ASAP.

No, I think he had an appearance after that, but ...
Yeah.

I'll go check.

He played in the Blackpool game at Bloomfield Road. Played well, too.

That's the last I remember of him.

Great review Sam, I like your line up.

Thats the thing he is a great player with a lot of expectation I just don't get why he is always injure he don't play that much.

I really think if he can stay healthy he is one of the missing pieces for Arsenal.

YOU KNOW WHAT I THINK THE MISSING PIECES ARE?
Invincible players, that don't get injured.

Important we keep winning, always nice to win before the international break too.

if odemwingie is doubt for this one i have no idea how they will set up
not sure if they field tchoy as a lone striker cause he is better when he has partner so the dou creating space for each other
their wide players from few times that i have seen tend to tuck in and play narrow to make life hard for even 3 man midfield (dunno if that will be plan for tomorrow)
their narrow shape force opponent backline to play narrow too and makes space for tchoyi near touchline so our wide players should be wary of tchoyi runs when he drifts in to the flanks(if he starts)

so in that case i would have Rosicky start in one flank to help us maintain possession
if thats not the case then screw them it's crap feeling to watch/remember last season game

Im surprised to see ROsicky get the not over Arteta, and Arshavin over Walcott. Why did you decide to go with those 2?... or is that the official line up? lol

I don't understand why that post doesn't start Vermaelen...^

PL match straight after the CL.. egh

I dont think we should expect an energetic performance by the team. If we score a goal early on, the pace will be extremely slow.

That is what we should avoid, 1 goal is never enough with Arsenal, 2 is The minimum and 3 should be the ideal.

In terms of individual performance and tactics. I think we will see rotation, Heard Oxlade might be involved. Arshavin n Benayoun are in contention so we might see Theo/Gervinho on the bench. Maybe Rosicky might start for Ramsey who looked tired.

However with the International break coming in, Might as well play a full strength team.

I expect a win, and lets hope a Clean sheet comes with it
