Anyone think we can win at Arsenal?
|
|
A few weeks ago Gold and Sullivan were claiming we were going to give the big boys a run for their money, everyone was on a high after signing Payet and all looked rosy.
Since then the next few signings we need have stalled, we have been put out of Europa league and suddenly according to the media we are lambs to the slaughter at the Emirates. You can get 11/1 on us winning there that is how little chance we been given. In a one off game, start of the season are we REALLY THAT POOR??
Does anyone out there think we can actually win this game??

Be nice to improve on the last 3 results there
3-0 3-0 5-1
I think we could maybe get a draw. Bit of magic from Payet and Zarate, Sakho with his usual goals.

These are the sort of matches we do win, we are definitely nowhere near as good as them but the first game of the season is like a cup fixture, anything can happen. First proper match under a new manager, the same can be said. So whilst we shouldn't win, we might well do and then lose against the lesser sides.

0 - 1 Sakho....though for this to happen Adrian will need to reach Rob Green levels of excellence and Sanchez will have to be off his game. If Wenger unleashes Alexis Sanchez on O'Brien and he has no support....it could be a cricket score.

Of course we can, maybe the odds and form are against us plus they have very good side and are at home, BUT if we go out thinking that then we just as well get BFS back, hope we give it a real go and I for one think its not unthinkable, WE CAN WIN, done it before, remember we were the first team to beat them at there new stadium, and the last to beat them at there old.
Irons, 0-1, 3 points on the board……………

I don't think Sanchez will be playing, due to the Copa America having just finished?

It's a game of football, of course we can win at Arsenal.
It's unlikely but if we play to our best and they put in a performance not up to par then we can win, we have before after all.

We can win at Arsenal, but we need to be positive.

We can win of course.
Will we win? That's a different story.
3v1 defeat I reckon. Hope I'm wrong.

I've done Sakho to score first and West Ham to win 2-1 200/1

Roe, at 200/1 that's a brilliant price for a quite reasonable bet and I'm tempted on that one myself.

I usually do my standard £10 2-1 West Ham win, but I just can't see it happening.
Fuck it, I'll do it anyway.
You never know.

I believe we can win. They will not be certain how we are going to play and if we are sold at the back we stand a very good chance, particularly since we will be in the unusual position of playing 11 men this season.
Sakho and Zarate could be good together.

Its been a long while since we got anything at Arsenal or even at home. Do not see enough changes in the squad and style of play yet to suggest we will not get humbled :-(
Hope I am wrong.
