In our last game against Fulham, we saw a lot of tired legs and today’s game is a real opportunity to rest key players. The likes of RvP, Theo, Ramsey, Arteta, Song, Santos, Mertesacker and Vermaelen would all be rested. A week’s rest can do our key players a world of good so it is definitely welcomed! Wenger in his Presser said there will be a mixture of experience and youth. Experience we all know would come in the likes of Arshavin, Benayoun, Park, Chamakh, Gervinho, Koscielny and Djourou while for the youth we would see the likes of Coquelin, Frimpong, Miquel,

Hello peeps,

Hope y’all are having a good day? The weekend didn’t go as planned as we failed to close the gap on 3 of our rivals who failed to pick up wins.

The Carling Cup is back and today we host City. We welcome back our ex-players who got lost along the way for one reason or the other. Nasri , we all know the real reason why he chose City…… Money!!!!

Not going to sit and lie…. That i don’t care about the outcome, most especially if its a Loss on the night. We know our target this season and its a top 4 finish and any other positives that comes after finishing in the top 4 should be a bonus.

We win tonight and I would definitely sing my lungs out, we lose tonight and I would sleep quite nicely. All in all we are in a win – win situation which I’m fine with.

Probable line up for today:

Fabianski

Djourou, Squillaci, Koscielny, Miquel

Coquelin, Frimpong, Benayoun

AOC, Chamakh, Park

This eleven is good enough for the night to send the City faithful back to Manchester crying plus we have got the likes of Arshavin and Gervinho waiting on the wings if we need a little bit of impetus.

Prediction: 2-0 Arsenal.

I’m sorry about the short write up, the assignment to write a match preview came on short notice. Hope its up to scratch though?

Until next time…. Stay cool!!!
