LOSS Premier League: Everton 1 - 0 Arsenal | Saturday 4th, February | KO: 12:30 GMT| BT Sport

This should be relatively straightforward, the new manager bounce not withstanding.

The starting xi picks itself, unless Partey is not fit enough to start and Lokonga takes his place.

 

[Tir Na Nog]

Win this and City have to go to Sp**s the next day 8 points trailing and needing to win.

We know what we'll get, they'll be fired up, crowd rejuvenated, maybe expecting a tough low block. We should have too much still. A year ago all these factors might've worried me, not now.

Sean Dyche ball oh dear

 

[JENSON_GUNNER]

Sean Dyche ball oh dear

I doubt he'll be able to get them to play his style of football in a week's time.

 

[Pulp]

Lost at Goodison last year, so expecting a better result this time

 

[DasBootist]

Must win. I don't care about last season's result, this year iz different.

We're going to batter them. We're different sauce now.

Surely not that hard to play 10 behind the ball

 

[Dennis_Bergkamp_10]

A win puts us 8 points in front with a game to spare, and City going to Sp**s. Ffs this could be the weekend everyone starts believing ad much as I do.

 

[Riou]

Don't care about this being Dyche's first game...




...we need to just take care of business like the quality team we are.

 

[Lady_Gooner]

New manager bounce, irritating fans & early kick off tax. Long day
Glad we’ll have had 8 days off

 

[MartiSaka]

Interesting to see if Sean has them set up like prime long ball, rear guard action Burnley given he is in a relegation battle. Might be a tough game if this is the case but we should get it done.

 

[Gunners1616]

No more Richarlison. He had the game of his life against us last year over there.

Hopefully everyone if fit' for this one.

Not against Arteta's Arsenal. Newcastle had to dig deep to get that draw. Not sure a lot of teams can be that organized. Southampton got lucky too.

When we beat Everton 2-0 in the 2014/2015 season to help us secure a Top Four finish that season, @UpTheGunnerz remember this tackle from the first Gabriel on Lukaku...

...gotta be one of the best timed challenges I have seen from any Arsenal player, it's beautiful to watch on the second angle.

My boy Gabriel! Butt ugly but did he have a heart of gold? Probably not that either

Doesn’t early kick off help us in this case? Their fans won’t be as loud unlike if it was in the evening for example.

 

[ThePortugueseGunner]

Back to the Premier League with no more cup games. We have to use that to our advantage. Total focus on the title run and the potential Europa League trophy.

Everton sucks. No excuses for this one, we must secure the win and keep the advantage.

Speaking of tackles...




...The King could have timed this a bit better

Gabriel I was the greatest Gabriel we’ve ever had at the club
