Match Threads Arsenal vs Spurs - Match Thread

Hoping it’s three at the back. Sissoko and Rose as wingbacks. Not quite sure how the rest will line up tho? Eriksen and Winks in the middle maybe? Son and Lamela behind Kane?

I know this is not the thread for this but am I alone in thinking Wolves seem to be suffering the EUFA cup Thursday blues rather like Burnley last year .

The commentator said they have played 10 games this season, Everton have played 5.

 

[RichieS]

I think it is.

This would be preferable to a 4 with Davinson at RB, but then Sissoko at RWB would leave us light in the middle.

Absolutely. Could be TA on the rb with Sissoko covering a bit from cm. No idea what the plan is. Not ideal though, I would say.

 

[ajspurs]

fuck me - the Scum midfield and defence is utterly shocking and void of any class. literally only their top 3 to be worried about.

I swear we've said this the last two years though and they've massively outplayed us both times. This is the game in which they fight for everything and the crowd get right behind them. Regardless of their team we haven't been able to deal with it the last few times at the Emirates.

Seeing that Arsenal team means nothing to me, it's about how we go and play on the day.

Love that team assuming it's three at the back.

Great to see Verts back especially, hopefully all well there. Also good to see Eriksen start, time for him to put in a performance, at least get his head down for a bit.

 

[kaz Hirai]

No idea if that's a back 3 with Sissoko rwb or if Toby has gone to rb and it's our standard formation

 

[ShaunL84]

We should be winning this.

I doubt it though..

 

[werty]

I don't think Sanchez has played right-back in his career. Alderweireld has, but not for a while I'd imagine.

I hope not as that would mean winks and Eriksen in midfield against their 3, which would be a fucking disaster

 

[Hakkz]

Their gameplan will be Torreira and Guendozi winning the ball and Xhaka hoofing it up the field for the top three.

 

[ShaunL84]

Why is that **** Campbell on Sky?

Hope he suffers a heart attack live on TV.

 

[lukadownthelane]

Sissoko needs a belter today or we aren’t getting the ball

 

[Bobbins]

Ex Chelsea, Ex Liverpool and the biggest betrayer in the history of the club, Gooner captain.

Why what a thoroughly balanced pundit line-up from Sky! I look forwards to Alan Smith co-commentating!

Absolute joke.

 

[Gilzeanking]

Dunno if this has been posted . Its Mourinho talking in depth about how he sees our overall situation and previewing today's game too
Good stuff

 

[JCRD]

Not with a Winks/Sissoko central mid pairing

Sissoko is gonna score dude

 

[Grey Fox]

Pissed off that Lucas gets dropped again, he deserves better treatment from Poch, I would play him over Son at the moment

Yeah, that’s why I’m not sure how the rest lines up. You’d have thought, if it is 3 at the back, that we’d have another CM in there rather than maybe Lamela? Push Eriksen on with Sonny. But yeah, could be Toby at RB in a 4.. I’d rather see Sissoko as wing back than CM, as long as we have adequate CM’s in the side. Really missing Ndombele for this game, big loss.

 

[JCRD]

We won't lose, it's fine

Man now you gone and done it

 

[THX2208]

I see a lot of the members are optimistic about the game today ?
