10 Reasons why we will beat Palace + starting 11

Well before I start..HAPPY NEW SEASON, let’s hope Wenger spends a bit more money on the defence and we could be in with a shout this season.

1) Pulis has left Palace, not an ideal start for any team, especially one that will have to punch above it’s weight to stay up this season. Pulis completely turned around Palace last season, they were everyone’s favorites to go down and he steered them upto 11th.

2) Koscielny look’s likely to be fit, it will be nice to have one fit CB on the pitch.

3) Chambers has looked ok in pre-season, CB is our only weak position today.

4)  Diaby maybe fit, but luckily so is everyone else bar the German’s and Theo so he shouldn’t get on the pitch .

5) Captain Arteta will get to try his new super Def Mid role where he doesn’t run about too much, breaks up play and just gives the ball to Jack and Aaron.

6) We beat Palace home and away last season 2-0.

7) We haven’t won any of our last 4 opening weekend games, Palace haven’t won any of the last 5.

8) Alexis will be the star attraction today, but Campbell, Ox and Sanogo will all be hoping to get on the pitch and make an impression today.

9) Giroud’s goal Vs City shows with a bit of competition for places amazing things can happen.

10) Wenger Knows, what a difference a year makes….

My starting 11 – Chesney, Deb, Chambers, Kos, Gibbs, Arteta, Jack, Ramsey, Alexis, Ox, Giroud.

COME ON THE ARSENAL.

10 Reasons why we will win the Community shield + Starting 11

1.. Sanchaz Sanchez Sanchez, possibly the biggest and most exciting transfer we have made since Bergkamp.

2.. Joel Campbell , I like him (he will be pleased to know that i’m sure)   he has some genuine pace and after waiting years to get a work permit he will give it his all to stay at ours.

3.. Diaby is injured. Earth is round. Man invents the wheel…

4.. Chambers looks like he has come to us to cover CB and RB and with the Germans still putting towels on sunbeds he will partner Koscielny in the middle of a new look defence with other new boy Debuchy at RB.

5.. We only have 6 Defenders listed at the club on arsenal.com, but who cares we have 10 midfielders and 9 forwards, ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK

6.. Manchester City have never won this trophy at Wembley.  (nicked from bbc sport)

7.. Vanishing spray will be used for the first time in an English game, another first involving our club.

8.. We have so many options in the middle of the pitch that not only will Man City not know who we will play but Wenger is possibly having sleepless night over the right combination too.

9.. Man City will be without  Fat Lampard, Snidey Sagna, Sergio Aguero, Pablo Zabaleta, Martin Demichelis, Fernandinho and skipper Vincent Kompany.

10.. Wenger knows this is really a glorified friendly and the result won’t make too much difference to our season, but we need to show we have learned some lessons from last seasons games against the bigger sides and put down some kind of marker.

My Starting 11 – Ches – Deb, Kos, Chambers, Gibbs – Flamini Ramsey Santi – Joel Ox Sanchez

 

 

 

10 reasons why we will beat Hull + starting 11

1) Ozil trained before the game, would bet he starts on the bench and he has been missed.

2) Koscienly should be back, we have missed him even more.

3%) Kim Kallstrom, decent show Vs the Whammers would not bother me to see him every game.

4) flamini is back from suspension, it’s all good news today !

5) Diaby is likely to make an appearance, as is the Easter Bunny.

6) Podolski, I really dont know how many times he has to prove he is the one true clinical finisher at the club.

7) Ramsey and Ox, both doing well in getting back to full fitness, see even more good news

8) Hulls Home Prem Record – Won 7, Drawn 4, Lost 6.

9) The Arsenal’s Away Prem Record  –  Won 9, Drawn 2, Lost 6.

10) Wenger knows that this is yet another vital game for our fight for the 4th place cup. With players coming back we could field a strong bench, so plenty of options for Wenger on 70 mins.

Predicted starting 11 – Chesney, Sagna, BFG, Kos, TV, Flamini, Ramsey, Santi, Podolski, Ox, Giroud.

Giroud to score and The Arsenal to win 7/1 with a £25 matched bet from William Hill

On a Side note, well done to all the traveling Arsenal fans today, it was wrong, very wrong for this game to be moved at short notice you all deserve any lost money for trains, hotels etc to be paid back to you in full. Football without fans is nothing. Television companies must start considering fans, or we will stop considering them.
