Arsenal Match Thread

[Linz]

Erm yeah... just what we need

 

[Hilltop Blade 4 life]

It's a shame we're playing arsenal at this time cos recently we have been gaining in confidence, (the defence in particular), and i just fear that arsenal are going to come here and undo the good progress we've made by sticking 4 or 5 past us.

Please prove me wrong blades

 

[metalblade]

only 4 or 5

 

[Come from away]

Just say hello to the good old 4-5-1, not much going forward but should keep it under three.

I don't think this one matters that much.........unless we win of course!

 

[Hilltop Blade 4 life]

Similarly i don't think the actual game matters a great deal, but it could be a massive blow to morale and confidence if we get absolutely thumped, which is very possible when you think that we have no midfield and they'l just be coming at ud all game and totallly controlling us.

 

[Samantha]

I'm going - we'll win

Heh - I hope!!

 

[Come from away]

Arsenal are at the top of their game, even if they only bring half their starting eleven we are in deep trouble - not great for morale.

 

[silverfox]

I don't think a thumping by one of the best teams in the world will make such a difference to be honest.

Losing at Scunthorpe maybe.

 

[Come from away]

On the other hand it might inspire us to play some real football.

 

[stinkyblade]

Glad i'm not paying for that funeral

To be honest, we will raise our game, may or may not create that many chances but we will give a good account as we always do against the top teams. We always play well against Arsenal, albeit with Warnock

Have faith Blades

UTB

 

[S64 Blade]

I'm not going Tuesday night. First home game I've missed for over 2 years.

Can't afford it really, if i could i don't think id be willing to pay those ridiculous prices.

 

[Tinoblade]

I havent got my ticket yet

I want to go but im always really tired after working mornings

 

[DazBlade88]

Arsenal's kids will be out but we will miss Cahill and Bardsley at the back. We'll get hammered.

0-5.

 

[MAQ]

Got tickets earlier. Front row, family stand

Just me an the daughter going this time. Is everyone going to the lion before hand?

 

[Blades-7]

I don't think we'll win tomorow!

Beating Arsenal won't give us 3 points.

I'd be quite happy with a 1-2 or 0-2 scorline.

 

[silverfox]

For anyone who may be confused we play Arsenal on Wednesday.

 

[stuie01]

To be honest as long as we keep the scoreline below losing 3-0 i would be fairly happy it would be great to beat Arsenal but how they are playing lately that aint going to happen even their young kids/reserves are immense in quality

 

[shorehamview]

Arsenal are, to be honest, crap. What have they done recently to prove otherwise? Fair enough, they got to the Euro Posh Cup final the other year, but they lost to Barcelona, and they are rubbish. Arsenal have done nowt in recent years.


This may not be true.

Our fans are noisier, more passionate than the Dubaibury Library crowd, and can be guaranteed to outsing the Cockneys all match regardless of the score.

This is true. Bring 'em on.

It may be less painful if we go on Tuesday though.

 

[metalblade]

I have a really bad feeling about this one

 

[Bladesman]

I reckon we can win this one.

 

[Tizer Flavoured Blade]

I want what ever you're on

 

[RIP Niftos]

I want what ever you're on

and lots of it

 

[Robbie]

I don't think it is going to be anywhere near as bad as people are making out.

I'm plumping for penalties before lose.

 

[Come from away]

Given his first team has disappeared, it should be a good game!

 

[Sensiblade]

Walcott starting by the sound of things.

 

[Robbie]

Walcott starting by the sound of things.

For the Blades?

 

[Greasy Chip Butty]

Walcott starting by the sound of things.
