Man City v Arsenal - Preview and Prediction

Welcome back Arsenal,

Gosh International week just don't pass easily feels like month, but anyways we are back in business and I am expecting a positive result from our trip to blue side of Manchester. To be true Man CIty are good but just not good enough to resist Arsenal attacking threat, so what if Arshavin is injured, we still have Cesc, RVP, Bendtner and watch out for Bendtner he will have point to prove to Ade-bye-whore. And he scored couple of excellent goal for Denmark, his goal against Portugal was brilliant.

My prediction for this game. Man City 0 Arsenal 2

I know we have injury problem but ManCity will be missing Robinho and Tevez as well.
Considering the way ManCity played their last three games, trust me apart from their goals they were shit. If we look at the number of chances Wolves and Portmouth created but failed to score, We can all imagine what Arsenal can do if given that many chances to score. So an away win looks on the card. And I really want Arsenal to give them a footballing lesson, I still cannot forget that defeat last time around.

Team prediction.

Almunia
Sagna Gallas Vermaelen Clichy

Song

Denilson Cesc

Bendtner RVP Diaby

I would love to see DUDU start but that ain't happening, anyways Diaby is playing well(I know he scored an own goal but overall he played well), this new formation suits his style of play.

And yes!, that all, I expect Tomas to make the bench but not Theo.

Let me know your Team and Prediction.

Boring Boring Internationals

Hello everyone,

Well another international week another player injured in Arsenal camp, this time its our little Russian, What happened to him?, he aggrevated his groin injury and will be out for 3 bloody weeks, that means he will miss the game against money city, Liege and Wigan, Arsene Wenger is furious and rightly so, Arshavin was carrying a groin injury and this kind of injury takes atleast couple of week to heal so he was not 100 percent, We really needed him against ManCity. I know we have sufficient cover for him but we do not have another Arshavin. His quality is unmatched.

Now for the good news, Rosicky and Walcott both are back, I belive they both will start on the bench(surprise me Arsene and start Rosicky). Infact rosicky played some 50+ min in Czech 7-0 thrashing of San Marino.

Finally Eduardo, I watched the game last night between England and Croatia, yes Croatia were not good enough last night, but they way english fan were booing DUDU everytime he touched the ball really made me sick to my stomach, I cannot really understand why? and he was again denied a penalty by the ref which I believe was a clear penalty.

Finally I am posting this video of a legend(DB10), all I can say is "Arsene bring him back". Trust me you will not such an audacious goal every week.

No News !

Good morning Gooners,

News today, nothing!. All the papers are about International matches and the same old Eduardo ban. And yes Chelsea 2 transfer window ban, funny isn't it, considering they will loose some important player's from Africa this January. Let's see how they cope with that, I will not be surprised if this ban is lifted by FIFA. And they resolve the issue with some fine, What am I doing?, talking about Chelsea.

Well, In other news Rooney, ya you all know him, he say he is not a diver and he never cheats, well the less I say about his comment the better it is. Because I seriously don't believe in lengthy blog.

And yes congratulation to Nikki B and Denilson for their new contract, keep playing well you guys all the best and one more thing I really want to watch Rosicky play this weekend, though he is yet to make any appereance for gunners this season, he is still been selected for his national side I don't know why? whatever it is I hope he don't get injured again.

Nothing else to write about, well a long and boring weekend awaits gooners. TC

Prediction/Team News/Preview - Arsenal v Portsmouth

Premier league is back and we are already a game behind. Like Wenger said "we don't want to play catch up with anyone". I really feel that Arsenal should score early because we all know that Paul hart has Already parked his bus in front of Arsenal goal so more time we take to break portsmouth defence more likely it is for our player to get frustrated and make mistake by over committing themself,

Now for some team news, Wenger finally said it, that Vela is carrying an ankle injury and it will take some time to recover.

Eduardo is fit to face Portsmouth on Saturday, having recovered from a groin problem which ruled him out of the Champions League qualifier against Celtic. Well I believe that Eduardo will start this match and let's hope he don't get injured again till the end of the season.

Theo Walcott (back), however, has once again been ruled out. Arsene is right to criticise England U21 coach and Capello for including Walcott in the U21 championship. He warned them about the consequences.

Lukasz Fabianski (knee),Tomas Rosicky (hamstring),Samir Nasri (broken leg) and Johan Djourou (knee) all continue their rehabilitation. Wish them all a speedy recovery.

Portsmouth travel without midfielder Papa Bouba Diop, who faces a possible three to six weeks on the sidelines with a hamstring injury.

The Senegal international is set to undergo a scan to confirm the extent of the problem, but he will definitely sit out the clash at the Emirates Stadium.

Manager Paul Hart remains without Herman Hreidarsson and Steve Finnan, who are also suffering with hamstring problems and are at least two weeks away from returning.

Arsenal Team news:

Almunia, Sagna, Vermaelen, Gallas, Clichy, Song, Fabregas, Denilson, Arshavin, Bendtner, van Persie, Mannone, Eduardo, Eboue, Ramsey, Wilshere, Gibbs, Silvestre.

The formation should be somewhat like this

Almunia

Sagne Gallas Vermarlen Clichy/Gibbs

Song

Denilson Ramsey/Fab

Bendtner Arshavin

Eduardo/Van Persie

Prediction : 3 - 0 (Arsenal) Arshavin to score his first goal today

Let me know what formation you think Wenger will play

Who could Arsenal Play In CL Play-Off ?

I was too busy with my studies so I did not get time to post any blog. Since tomorrow morning we will find out which team we will be playing against in the play-off round to qualify for the champions league group stage.

The draw will consist of two parts as 20 teams compete for 10 places.

The 10 remaining clubs who did not win their domestic competition - such as Arsenal and Celtic - will compete for five places in the group stage. This is known as the 'non-champions path'.

In this 'path', Arsenal are one of five seeded teams - along with Lyon, Sporting Lisbon, Panathinaikos and Stuttgart - and they will be drawn against the non-seeded teams - Celtic, Ateltico Madrid, Anderlecht, Fiorentina and Timisoara.

The 10 other clubs who did finish champions are allocated to the 'champions path' and follow the same format.

The five winners from each section join the 22 automatic entrants in the group stage.

The play-offs will be played over two legs on Aug 18/19 and 25/26

Uefa Champions League play-offs Non-champions path
Seeded	Unseeded
Arsenal	Fiorentina
Lyon	Atletico Madrid
Sporting Lisbon	Celtic
Panathinaikos	Anderlecht
Stuttgart	FC Timisoara

As you can see Arsenal can face any of the five unseeded team, If we can avoid Fiorentina and Athletico Madrid, then I we should not have much problemo qualifying for the group stage but even if we draw against these two teams it will surely be difficult but I am sure we will make it.

And you don't have to guess that these teams will also want to avoid Arsenal.

more news on Tomas Rosicky Injury soon.....

till then bye.

Will Arsenal Sigh Huntelaar?

hello everyone,

This is my second post of the day usually I don't do that but I just read an interview of Harry Redknapp he clearly mentioned that they did tried to sign Huntelaar, they even had a meeting with Real representative but according to him his wage demands are too high for them.

Its assumed that he currently on 60K a week at Madrid so that means if he is to come to an english club he would be expecting something similar, but the biggest obstacle in this deal could be the shitty tax law in England, with all due respect to the country but this tax law seems to be unfair, like Arshavin clearly mentioned in his interview with SkySports that if they don't do anything about it there could be mass exodus of stars in premier league.

Its pretty obvious that no player would want a pay cut in their salary for a move to premier league that too when a player is in his prime, like Huntelaar, so if Arsenal have to buy him, they will have to make him one of the highest earner in the club with the likes of Cesc, Van Persie and Arshavin, which seems very unlikely since we all know how our club operates but all you can do is hope that we sign him.

Even if we don't sign him I think we are pretty good upfront with fully fit Eduardo, Walcott, Arshavin, Robin, Vela, Bendtner. Let me know where else do you think we should strengthen or squad and let stay positive even if we don't sign anymore player.

And a request to all the fan who come for home games at Emirates please cheer our player don't booooo them and get behind the team even if we are losing a match, let them know we are with the team, we have to stay positives, as I can see glory days are coming back to the Grove. And if you are finding it hard to inspire yourself then you must watch this Bobby Pires video. I still love him

till then

take care.

Why Arsene Is Upset About Adebayor Departure? And More

Hello Every one ,

Finally Adebayor has joined city for 25 million pound. If u ask Arsenal fan they will say"good riddance".

But Arsene Wenger doesn't seem to be too happy with Manu leaving Arsenal.

According to Le Boss.

we fans are somewhat responsible for his departure, he thinks he did not get the suport from us, he says he is a hardworking footballer.

Well boss thats the reason we loved Manu so much, We fans would have forgiven him for what he did during the Transfer season, had he shown the commitment, the desire to play for the club, like he did in 07/08 season.

We fans were not expecting another 30 goals from him again.

It was his Fault.

Talking about "Hleb"

Anybody remember him, if yes then I am so happy that he finally accepted that he made a mistake leaving Arsenal. i know its doesn't matter now but still somewhere in there I feel so Good. Since he was giving those stupids reason about life in London is the reason behind him leaving the club

This is what he said "when you mostly sit on the bench, winning titles brings very little joy, while getting to the last eight of the Champions League with Arsenal was unforgettable,' said the Belarus winger.

“I regret my move from London, but unfortunately nothing can be done about it now

“For me, Wenger was like a father. I consider him one of the best managers in the world.

“For such a boss one wants to die on the pitch. Arsene managed to create a smashing team with a wonderful atmosphere inside of it.

“I have no doubts that if Arsenal had the same budget as Barcelona, the Gunners would be among the three best clubs on the planet."

doesn't it feel good, Ya I know it does.

And Finally Rosicky is back the "littele Mozart" I loved the way he plays, so good to see him back. I was actually praying for him that he don't get injured like what happeed with Eduardo when he made his comeback. Let us all pray that this is the season we win some silverware.

till then
