On my way.
Stopped for a charge and to start the match thread.
Sun shining at Fleet services on M3!
Madge is fired up and raring to go. So much so, she is wearing our new 4th strip!
Today is the day we make our mark at the Emirates.
Top of the league, at kick off!
Up the Clarets.

I heard their manager on the radio last night, the only word I understood was "physical" I then turned off.
I really do hope we beat them, we must be due some fortune over them.

With Aubameyang as my FPL captain, I'm hoping for a high scoring away win.

I hope your captain scores sod all. It's one of the reasons why I packed FPL in, I'd be watching a game with the lads and wanting a 0-0 as I had defenders playing for both sides.

COYC! Finally time to get something again these. I would take a draw now, but sneaking a 1-0, last minute penalty would work too!

Their defense looks very vulnerable.
Feeling very optimistic, which is probably dangerous...

I've a feeling that it will be close and somewhere along the line VAR will very dubiously over-rule Mike Dean to give Arsenal something they don't deserve. It's Arsenal after-all!

So your hoping the opposition score 5 or 6 against us in a 7-6 win for the sake of your fantasy team wow! Especially the chances of you winning the damn thing aswell in a game with millions of people in! The mind boggles

Not really we have 3 defenders and 1 attacker on the bench. I would bet my life that strikers are used as substitutes far more often than defenders and therefore our bench is unbalanced and poor IMO.
All those on here creaming themselves about how strong our squad is need to look at this bench and realise we are weak in comparison with a lot of the other teams in this league.
That said im happy with first 11 and think we'll put up a good fight even if we ultimately come up a bit short

We'd have to beat them at least 4-0 for the media to ever acknowledge that.
