With all the focus on winning cups and the League the nice thing about footie is that a single game like this can be the be all and end all.
On Sunday, this is our season right here, I’m up for it big time!
 
We've had a lot of topsy-turvy results in the Premier League recently. Does this have any significance for Sunday? No. None at all.
 
Yeah, has to be Johnson, Richy and Son.

Though wouldn't surprise me to see Kulusevski starting and to bring Johnson on second half.

With Udogie out, hopefully this means that Davies (if he plays) will not venture so much forward and we’re more solid at the back, giving Porro more freedom to join the attack.

I’d personally start Kulusevski, I mean I am not his biggest fan, but he’s probably better at holding the ball, even if that means we lose a tempo or two when transitioning.
 
Unpopular opinion but I would maybe lean towards starting Kulusevski. We could use some of his strength in the first 60min, he can defend the ball at his feet better than Johnson, use his frame to shield and rough up and tire the defenders a bit. Then Johnson could come on and hopefully do the job against tired legs.
I know he's been in terrible form lately but since he's not starting we just can't keep the ball high up the pitch at all. I think even if he does slowly work his way up with the defender hanging off his sleeve that can benefit us in opening phase of the game.
Also I worry Johnson could not handle the pressure of such fixture and go missing after a while and then our options will not be great having to maybe put Kulu on to actually change the game.

Here is what is going to happen - They will be 2-0 up come half time :ange-facepalm2:
This place will be toxic :avbhumph::avbfu::mourfinger::dohertyshrug:

Brennan, Richie and Werner will come on at half time - we quickly make it 2-1 with a header from Richie :richlips: Brennan then makes it 2-2 within minutes - the ground is suddenly alive again :mickyarm:


The nerves are kicking in for the scum - they are playing not to lose now - its still 2-2 on the 85th minute - Werner has it on a plate but fulffs it - Was that our chance? :ange-hands-head:
89th minute Richie is through on goal - the ground goes silent - he goes round the keeper and taps it in the net 3-2 ! Scenes in the stands as the pigeon gets all funky , gooners making a run down the high road , Saka is limping - Ange give Lego head the "mate" ref blows the final whistle , better luck next year you south London nomad cheating cunts!
:ange-arms:
