i predict a fresh fit Arsenal vs a tired, post-Everton (x2) match squad from us. An Eternity of rest versus 60 hours rest. Plus all the knocks & bangs that really gets our options from the Bench. They have home advantage in the freezing Tundra of North London. Still in the Champions League versus Still arguing about Selhurst (censored) - 0

Arsenal can't hit a barn door at the minute which could be our in. Under the most pressure they've been under at any point since they spectacularly imploded in the title run in last year and they desperately need a win. If we can keep them out until the hour mark, they're prime on the counter attack. I'm not sure what with though - no Olise or Ayew is rough. That will also require us to defend a lot better than we have done recently. Arsenal are conceding a fair bit from set pieces too but we're famously weak there at present. If we let them score early and they get their tails up - then yes, it could get nasty. If, however, a few step up and play to their potential - never say never.

This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

Given we play the cup replay three days before this it'll be interesting to see what Roy does...actually perhaps interesting is the wrong word. We've done ok at hanging in there against the big six this season but we'll need Eze to up his game to stand any chance of a result. I can see this being another frustrating one where we come undone in the last 10 minutes. 1-0 Arsenal.

I'd rather commit whatever resource is deemed necessary to beat Everton than just throw whatever remains in to form a bus to park at Arsenal, true Roy style, just hoping for the best. I'd stomach a 5-0 loss at the Emirates quite happily were we to advance in the cup.
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |
