Loss PL: Newcastle 2 - 0 Arsenal | Monday 16th May | KO: 20:00 BST | Sky Sports

Time to rally the troops.

No time to be down since we have a chance of redemption right here.

None of this sitting back or reactive tactics, please. We need to play on the front foot, hold the ball and silence the crowd. City bouncing back after their CL exit should be the blueprint for Arteta as they remained focused and did this to Newcastle:



It’ll be a lot tougher as they’ve only lost one game in 2022 at home and that was against Liverpool but WE CAN DO IT.

Remember the last time we had to secure CL football at St James Park? Well, we got the job done and I don’t see why we can’t do so here.

Let’s remain positive, win this one and move on to Everton.

[Riou]

Remember when that walking lard factory Ashley promised all his players like a £1 million bonus, if they beat us on the last day of the season in 2013, helping Sp**s get Champions League?

Tottenham really do have the worst selection of fans

Don't care who starts for Newcastle here, just have to win, which we can do.

 

[Tir Na Nog]

We should be hoping Trippier starts. Martinelli up against someone making their first start for 3 months. Yes please.

I don't think Kernkrafth 400 is much addition either tho.

Haven't seen a single pundit predicting an Arsenal W... We really seem to be the underdogs for this game

 

[Riou]

Very difficult away night games at St James', that's when you need your big players to step up...




...Saka/Ødegaard/whoever, please just win tomorrow Arsenal

It's normal in the sense that we have 4 or 5 players missing, away from home against a side that has only really lost against the best 3 teams in the league. We are also off the back of a hammering by our rivals and less rest than toon.

Up to us to put that to bed. Early goal would be nice.

I was confident we'd win with a Vieira-esque deflected goal until my mortal enemy posted this tweet.


An assassin of good fellings if there ever was one. But to a masochist like @lamby22 its pretty much par for the course

It'll be an absolute catastrophe if we don't win this, everything is in our favour, Newcastle have injuries and players returning from injury who won't be fully fit or close. They're practically on holidays as evident in their last game. We had a bad loss but won our previous 4 and just need to get back to that.

And we don't have injuries ?? lol

It's their last home game of the season & they'll want to put in a good display in front of their fans.

It's got all the makings of an miserable Monday evening written all over it.

Everything is in our favour?

Tierney, Partey, White, Holding, Gabriel all set to miss the match. Or rushed into playing when they aren't fit.

We are off the back of a hammering by our fiercest rivals.

We are playing a team who has the second highest points total in the PL since Eddie Howe took over.

The only teams they've lost to recently have been Chelsea (they were denied a clear penalty), Liverpool (lost narrowly 1 0 ) and City who were dominant and a class above them. We got beat 5 0 by City too. Were we on holiday that day?

We are playing away.

We have had less rest than them.

While it will be disappointing not to pick up 3 points it will most certainly not be a walk in the park. I do expect us to win if we are serious about CL. But given that Sp**s have a good chance of going into 4th today, there will be huge pressure on us tomorrow. Again.....not exactly in our favour.

I think for strengths on the pitch he meant money also; ASM loves playing in those Gucci headbands

 

[sergio_giorgini]

What is Newcastle’s strengths and weaknesses ??

Strengths: ASM & Guimaraes
Weaknesses: They’re sh!t.

 

[MD3 Gunner]

Strengths: ASM & Guimaraes

They may be **** but they’ll still beat us

 

[Riou]

Strengths- Alain Saint-Maximin, Dan Burn & Calum Wilson

Weaknesses- Joelinton

Joelinton has weirdly been their best player somehow.

Like a really bizarre Vieira tribute act, don't know how he has done it

 

[sergio_giorgini]

They may be **** but they’ll still beat us

They’ll beat us or we’ll beat ourselves?

 

[MD3 Gunner]

They’ll beat us or we’ll beat ourselves?

Well maybe the latter but you know what I meant.. our UCL dreams will likely be dusted tomorrow
