Manchester City vs Arsenal| Saturday 17th October 17:30| Sky Sports

[UpTheGunnerz]

Yall expect Partey from start, reality it will be Nenners

 

[Breezy]

Be very surprised if De Bruyne doesn’t start and Partey does start.

 

[field442]

Sackable offence if he starts Elneny over Partey.

 

[A_G]

they have Liverpool in a few weeks so no point risking him

 

[kash2]

If we beat Man City, I'm putting some money on the title.

 

[Gegen Pressing]

Pep " It's going to be a boring draw"

Arteta " but then Master, I think you failed the transfer window, and the pressure is on you"

Pep " and so you know. Will that be enough to beat me?"

Arteta "I know that you already know."

 

[Manberg]

Our team has a mental block away against the big teams. We need to get that out of the system.

I think Home or Away is making little difference at the moment, that's why we get results like Utd 1 Spuds 6, or City 2 Leicester 5. I doubt either of these would have happened with a crowd. If we had any block with the bigger teams I think its already gone. Having said this I've gone for a draw but we can definitely win it, with or without KDB.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

seem we very likely see him start on bench and that bit frustrating but expected even tho he is fully fit to play.

 

[DanDare]

It's a balance. Do you gamble his quality outshining his unfamiliarity with the team?

 

[Jury]

Throwing him straight in is a bad look. It’d seem desperate and exposes the player.

 

[Taneruit]

Will it possible be a Elneny-Ceballos midfield to start?

Xhaka is playing tonight and Saturday seems to be a bit soon for him if he arrives tomorrow.

What a ridiculous thing to say

 

[daron christie]

We have a tough run of games coming up but if we beat Man City it will make those other games easier as those teams coming will be crapping themselves....we lose and it will be same old arsenal

 

[Gervais]

Leno; Holding, Luiz, Gabriel, Bellerin, Xhaka, Ceballos, AMN, Pepe, Lacazette, Auba.

 

[Anders Harbo]

Leno; Holding, Luiz, Gabriel, Bellerin, Xhaka, Ceballos, AMN, Pepe, Lacazette, Auba.

That is exactly why AMN is so important to have in the squad. Without him to step in for Tierney, we would have been absolutely ****ed.

 

[Jury]

What a ridiculous thing to say

Spoken like an excited ADHD child, creaming his little Batman y-fronts at the thought of busting open the latest ultimate team pack with Thomas in it

Leave it, Bald spray, yeah?

 

[boxerumble]

Guys, no harm in having him make the bench for this one. Yes he's experienced, yes he's played at the highest level and yes he has all the attributes we need. However, it's one game. One game of the few games we can afford to lose worst case.

He'll definitely start vs. Vienna and will for sure need to be ready for Leicester then be completely comfortable with our team by the time United rolls around.

I think we can beat City without Thomas Partey imo. They’re nothing special, all we have to do is play our own game and not be scared like the first half against Liverpool.

Get an early goal, keep the shape and then bring on Thomas Partey in the second half to stifle/frustrate them in the middle of the pitch and hit them on the break similar to how Leicester destroyed them.

I don’t want to see Willian starting in this sort of game. Pepe has to start...they’ve got Mendy at LB ffs :rofl:

Pepe was up against some kid in the carabao cup and never looked like beating him.
