Pre Match Arsenal v Leicester

[popillius]

We are going to try and bore them to death with as many defensive players on the pitch as is humanly possible.

We'll inevitably concede at least 3.

Yep, "Brushed aside" will be the headlines, 4 -0 the Gunners.

 

[Miles Away]

My tactic against Arsenal would be to be violent.

They are a very petulant bunch. Take as many bookings as possible and preferably cause one or two injuries.

They'll unravel.

Yep

Maybe 4 - 1, with Vardy to get his traditional goal against them.

Stand 11 of our tallest players along the goal line and get them to alternately jump up and down for 90 minutes.

But then Ricardo won’t play again and all hell will break loose.

This is the most sensible suggestion I’ve seen so far

More of a coherent tactic than Sloth will come up with, that’s for sure

Should be interesting.

We all know what Arsenal are. Immensely capable defensively, which they build on with moments of creativity. They generally do just enough. 1-0, 2-0, 2-1. They don't hand out too many batterings.

So, if we ship 4 or 5 as plenty expect us to do, we'll know that we're utterly shite.

The plan is clear enough by now. We set up to be hard to beat, forsaking creativity. Fatawu & Ricardo often sacrificed. It's a plan of sorts. But it doesn't ****ing work.

We can't set up that defensively, because we're ****ing shit at it. We're always likely to concede & we never look like scoring more than once. It doesn't take a maths genuius to figure out it's not going to be easy to win a game from there.
Everton, from significantly less possession, had more shots than us & more on target. We managed 2 in the whole game. We should have lost.

& Everton are shite.

I'm not saying we should start tomorrow but after that we really need to look at being more adventurous or we're going to just slowly die. Surely Cooper must know this. If we carry on the same way, with the same results, he'll be gone by Xmas, along with his chance of ever getting another PL job.

Sort it out you ****.

I think we've got a good chance of winning against Arsenal this weekend.

I don't.

I think we've got a good chance of winning against Arsenal this weekend.

says a lot that I checked the women’s fixtures just to see which team you meant might have a good chance.

That’s a clever workaround @Joe_Fox …

 

[camberwell fox]

It’s just a matter of how many Arsenal want to score.
