Arsenal v Leeds Preview

Nice preview Sam.

I would love to see Henry instead of Chamakh and i will also love to see Ryo play.

Ryo still injured right?

Btw, Squillacci

Great preview Sam.

I think Chamakh will get the start and Henry will come on to finish the game off.

3-1 victory with Henry scoring the 3erd one.

Is this game going to be televised?

ryo isnt injured. but i think he will be on bench

Squillaci at the back and Chamakh upfront means we're toothless in attack and armourless in defence

Looks like it's going to be the Arsenal way once again

Nice job Sam
why Gradel has played only 4 matches this season? he was one of their better players in last season match while Denilson started
also Snodgrass is their 2nd best goal scorer good that he is out
we had so many chances via corners played in to edge of 6 yard box
lets see if we can get the best of them this time
Arteta/Per/Kos all defo need rest
i think Park needs to start on left side and we can use Arsha as CAM to play in between the lines this is only championship side
Ryo and Titi both lack match sharpness but can come off the bench in 2nd half

Spoiler:

Great job Sam.


Really looking forward to this match, Henry's turn to shine and I reckon this'll be the last chance of a few players like Arshavin, Chamakh and Squid.


And the match is gonna be televized (Al Jazeera 3, 5)

Gradel got sold to France ages ago no?

Clayton is a quality player, hopefully I can jizz in my pants tomorrow (providing Ryo gets game time )

Where's Benayoun in your starting line-up? Surely he'll play over Arteta.

Benayoun Coq Rosicky a bit too attacking aint it?

Arteta trained all week with the likes of Coq - think he will play

Nico Yennaris trained with the Arsenal first-team today. Could be involved v #LUFC given full back issues.

( via younggunsblog )

Too attacking? Not really. 4-2-3-1 with Rosicky and Coquelin as the two.

Bare in mind this is Leeds we're playing, not United, City, Chelsea, etc. Think we can afford to take a couple of risks with the starting line-up.

Arteta needs rest.

The same Leeds who drew with us at Emirates last year with Rosicky putting in a poor display.

afc team that beat Leeds 3-1 in replay lst season: Szczesny; Sagna Koscielny Djourou Gibbs; Denilson Song; Bendtner Nasri Arshavin; Chamakh

Rosicky played poor last year, so we shouldn't play Benayoun?

You'd be hard pressed to actually find a player that did play well in that game. It was a poor performance all round. I'm not underestimating Leeds or anything, but I just don't see the need to risk Arteta. He's not missed a league game since he's arrived, so the cup games are the only opportunities he'll get for rest.

meh i wanted ozyakup to start tomorrow.

great preview Sam ...thnx 4 sharing !lol..i didn't knew that b4..You're a Leeds player :?: good luck man..trololol.....just kidding...
Well,can't wait to see Henry performing tonight ,then 2 give my opinion about loaning him...should we or not ,anyway Ryo shouldn't send to another needless loan..IMO ! i'd love to see him playing also but !
-n finally we have Ozyakup what da hell Wenger signed Park then
Maybe a bit off topic! but Honestly I'm very optimistic about young -future- talented players we have....but i'm not satisfied as much with current squad n performances in general ! Hope 4 a win tonight .. come on Henry

I'm not picking my team in my preview, I pick the team that I think will play. Hey you might be right, who knows? I actually think you are right.

Reading on goal (I know) that this is another potential lineup and I really do not like it. Defense is very weak and Kos and Song will be spending all game trying to cover for the back line and GK. Do think that the front 3 could be interesting though, with the change of adding Park in the center, chamakh on the left and Beny on the right. Chamakh is not even a poor mans RVP and he has just not worked in the center this year probably do to the lack of a CAM. Adding Benny to the right adds needed experience and might as well see if Park can produce anything in the center. AOC in the midfield to me is interesting also. Could add creativity that we have been missing this year.


Almunia
Koscielny, Squillaci, Miguel, Hoyte
Oxlade-Chamberlain, Song, Coquelin,
Benayoun, Park, Chamakh

Really, that's what Goal wrote? What, they got two players in the correct positions?
.

Told you Benayoun wouldn't play.

I got almost all my team right
