Got a horrible feeling Danny Rose will be playing centre mid.
69, you say?Had a mental dream that we went 5-1 up after 30 mins but for some reason I had to leave.
Fast forward to full time and we'd lost 6-9 ...........after extra time.
I don't even know what to make of that.
Wow! 30% of voters are optimistically deluded in thinking we'll win this. I admire it though.
Come on, you know it's not about impact on the league or season. It's Arsenal.There is potential of that but the outcome will have no real impact surley? All of the big 5 are expected to win at home.

Emery looked to expose our RB last season and he will do it again. Luckily their defence is also shit.
Sounds like the best of both worlds. I mean, at worst, you won't have to watch the game.Option 1- disappear for the day but miss the game on the telly. Not great.

Should not put the pressure on to rectify it as we know how well the team respond under pressure or expectancy.In the early 00s and late 90s we had bad teams but the one thing you could guarantee against Arsenal was that we were always fired up. Yes michael brown was terrible but he was happy to put a challenge in. Nowadays it seems that we get very very nervous against arsenal as we do every big game. We just never seem to be up for it like they are. Our record against them has been very poor recently. Not won in the league in a while and we need to rectify that.
Agree with lots of this, suspect many of us do.Copy-paste the same post I make every year about this being my most hated fixture of the season and how I feel sick to the stomach. Not helped this year by my feeling that we're likely to lose the match. Doubly not helped by having the international break to stew on a defeat (against the club that I most hate us being defeated by), if that's the way it goes.
Probably safer for me to avoid watching the match today and then checking the score around 7pm: massive bonus and upswing in mood if we've got something out of the game, and damage-limitation as far as possible for the foul mood I'll be in if it goes the wrong way.
Good luck to you brave souls who have the minerals to watch this one as it happens: I hope you're all celebrating like crazy come the final whistle and that I have a very welcome surprise a little later when I learn the score.
From memory I think we tend to lose just before the international break would be a welcome change not to.Copy-paste the same post I make every year about this being my most hated fixture of the season and how I feel sick to the stomach.
