If we get a penalty, make sure Sinclair takes it.

For some reason im quite optimistic about this one.

We always tend to play better against the bigger clubs. If we can keep it at nil nil for the first 20 minutes we may get lucky.

Id play the following.......

Green
Faubert
Upson
Gabbidon
Llunga
Parker
Berahmi
Stanislas
Noble
Hines
Cole

Subs Tomkins, Diamanti, Jimenez, Kovac

This is the sort of game where we'll expect a hiding.....and probably win it 1-0.

4-4-2...if we are going to get beat then let's at least make a decent game of it.

Stick Hines up with Cole and drop Diamanti.

Funny how no-one is really that bothered about Zola's "integral main man" for the season (Copyright Duckers) Mr Jiminez making the starting line up..............and practically anyone we have signed in the last two transfer windows being in the side either.

And some people think we have a better squad than last year................

No flies on you Smuts .

4 teams selected and Diamanti and Jiminez make the starting 11 in one of them only , and no posts from viewers criticising their absence .

No one wants Franco anywhere near the first 11 either .

Still, too early to judge Nani :lol:

Green
Spector
Upson
Tomkins
Illunga
Parker
Collison
Behrami
Jiminez
Hines
Cole

442, diamond in midfield. Not just for this match though, I'd like to see this every week. Noble needs to be dropped to give him a kick up the arse. Diamante clearly hasnt settled and needs to be dropped for the time being. Faubert has done OK but the defence in general is disorganised. Lack of communication and I don't think Faubert helps this. I would definately give Spector a run out for a few games. I am confident that over a run of 10 games this side would gel well and start to move us the right way up the table.

If we win, which we can do, let's see all the doom and gloomers starting to pick up again. Football's a fickle old game...

Never a good time to play Arsenal & cant see anything else than Arsenal winning this one.

If the same Arsenal turns up that played Blackburn 6-2 win & Everton 6-1 win at Goodison then f**ks sake its gonna be a rough one.

Lets hope this game is the defining moment that CB holdings think its time to jump ship & sell us to Bowe/Gold etc..


If a defeat in this one will finally convince these f**kers to leave then so be it.



West Ham 1 Arsenal 4 :oops:


Roll on 2010

Thats Diamanti now making 2 out of the 6 teams selected on here .

Jiminez is stuck on 1 .

And LBM is waiting in the wings to storm back in March .

Mr Nani, the court of public opinion is leaning towards you having bought a couple of ponies .
