Pre-match views from the forum:
MutableEarth: “They looked up for it vs Liverpool even though they lost in the end. They’re not a very good side but they’re plucky. We’ll have to be on point – but we kinda have been recently. I think as long as we defend the way we have been defending for the last few weeks and don’t give up any chances via error, we’ll win this game quite handily.”
SA Gunner: “I liked the idea of getting our main players off as soon as the game was safe. I want this game to be similar in that respect.
Let’s also continue to open the game up early with a goal. Opposition fans have clocked onto how we use set pieces to unsettle and open up games so you better believe that opposition teams are fully aware of this too.
Burnley do have a bit about them though, to be honest, they can defend and they can play through you if you are not well-organised, so it’s important we remain on point in this game.
A clean sheet and dynamic attacking performance again please, thanks. 2-0 to Arsenal.”
LookingForEric: “They haven’t won in 6 but they’re scoring a fair amount of goals. One of the worst sides I’ve seen defensively mind you. They should come at us which will help our game, should be able to pick them off fairly easily.
Has the potential to be one of those weird losses, but we are in such good form and I back that.”
