I am off to Emirates shortly, so leave you with Europe secured and a possible sunshine victory for our Mighty Claret heroes.

Here's Madge to fire us to victory.

Come on you Clarettttttsssss!

I'm just hoping that this is the game where the wheels completely fall off for Arsenal. I thinking a 3-1 win for us.
Their squad has barely showed up to play for Wenger this season, and now with Europa done, they want the season to end and won't be bothered to even try today. A win against Bournemouth for us, and 2 draws the last 2 matches for them (against a decent Leicester squad and huddersfield that will definitely be playing for a point),and we finish above them.... Wishful thinking I know....

Time for our Aye Aye Ashley to "ruffle some feathers."

Lunch, sunscreen, then I'm heading out for the short public transport journey to Emirates Stadium.

Come on you Clarets.

With Koscielny out Chambers could start and he has a knack of scoring against us.
No negativity though cos we are scoring 3 in the capital for the third time and the third win this glorious season.

How many of these are going to be worn in the away end this afternoon?

Hi everyone for our last away game `together` this season! What a blast! The wee uns are in la la land (if a little restless). Neither are wearing their Claret outfits and I`m sorry to add, very much doubt I will be with you either. I`m off to my Arsenal supporting Japanese mate`s apartment to watch the game with him. I`ll endeavour to join you if I can, but if not, keep the fantastic banter up to the maximum as it always is on the matchday threads.

ENJOY AND UP THE CLARETS!!!!!!!

Where's Chris wood???

Hendrick and Barnes up front

Wood not in the squad - Jeff back in the starting 11 - that Gash in the foot from last week has taken it's toll

He went off injured with a cut on his foot last week

I’m assuming he’s out because of that

He's not injured. Probably being sold along with Mee

I have arrived 0.7m from ground and parked in a Mon-Sat spot, so hope all ok!

Very sunny! Strong Arsenal line up, beaten by the Burnley line up, of course.

Up the Clarets!

I'm glad Hendrick is playing, we'll have a scapegoat if we don't win.

Vokes must be wondering what he needs to do to get a start

SussexDon1inIreland · Post by **SussexDon1inIreland** » Sun May 06, 2018 4:06 pm

Watching from home in Greystones 30km south of Dublin in County of Wicklow.

We can play with a freedom today doesn't matter what the result is although a win with a disputed penalty going to us would suit me.

Thank you to the team the staff the Board and super Sean Dyche for a truly amazing season.

Scorchio in Derry, not something you usually hear.
Battling with arsenal for 6th place with Europe already guaranteed is something you don't hear either for the clarets fans. Heady days, cold beer in hand.UTC

No, just a suggestion from Clarets Player based on the way they did his arm up in a makeshift sling

no doubt whatesoever our summer recruitment simply must include a fast striker
