Gunner76

I would say Arsene has done it Per fect with that lineup – TR7 is going to be huge tonight

Swedegunner

goonerbynature

I’d want Flamini for Chelsea’s muscle though. With arteta

PP

Previgo

Hope we don’t face the same cunt officiating we got at the etihad

some dumb american

Hoping Cazorla comes off the bench and scores so we can all sing “Santi Claus is coming to town”

Mehn! This keeps appearing in ma face “theo hatrick” “theo hatrick” anyone care to shed some light on it?

Hoogy

Great to see Poldi back on the bench, have a feeling he could be vital tonight.

LETS SMASH T*ERRY AND THE SCUM.

Hoogy

……T*rry…….

Petit's Handbag

Could we not just put Diaby on the bench to scare Terry?

Goonerestgooner

Personally I would’ve gone with:
Szczesny, Sagna, Mertesacker, Vermaelen, Gibbs, Arteta, Rosicky, Ramsey, Ozil, Walcott, Giroud.

But what do I know!

gooner odst

Welsh Jesus, Giroud and Walcott to kick off the Christmas please. Thanks Santi.

Previgo

Pete cech: “wdf? Is that prince poldi on the bench?”

Oor Wullie

Hmmm, bit worried that Flamini’s not playing. This looks a bit gung-ho

Mark

I AM SO EXCITED, YOU GUYS

Benis

Hate to be the one to point it out, but we don’t have any back-up central defender (bar Sagna).

dgaj

Any one else absolutely loathes Ivanovic?

I hate his fucking nose… alright… ok. I’ll calm down… get some tea.

Oor Wullie

My general rule is if they play for Chelsea I hate them.

Ben

Best line up we could’ve gone with. Good work Arsene.

griff

Really hoping ozil shines tonight. an awful amount of bollox being spoken about oz. owen has had his pop. this evening on irish radio mark lawrenson and cascarino talking utter shite about ozils lack of ability in big games and that madrid are not crying after him. fucking sick of these clueless english and irish one eyed pundits. time to make them eat their words. 3:0 come on u gunners.

Comedian

the fans have to play their part tonight. Dont wanna hear those chelsea fans singing maureens name.
We have got to show those cunts where their place.

Gary Neville “to be in fourth at the end of tonight would be a real dampener. It would have an effect on the players”.

Would it really though? Considering we’d only be a point off top spot, I don’t think it’ll effect the players too much.

Goonerestgooner

According to the live blog line ups, Chelsea have got Eto’oxlade-Chamberlain on their bench!

ThePascalCyganInsideGunnersaurus

COYG!

He's got no hair but we don't care...

So excited that Poldi is back and ready to be called upon!

COYG!!!

zaidy zainal

Don't boo Paul Davis

Tonight we become Arsenal

mo974

halftime. it looks bad. no mojo. chel$ki look more dangerous . bad feeling. ramsey is having a bad game. arsene should change things now not wait his ussual 70 th but what do i know. flamini for ramsey and santi for ozil.

bitchplease

Walcott need to play on the wing second half and stretch Chelsea!

Steve

Dean being a nump, just hope he don’t cost us the Muppet!

John

We played so well we didn’t need any subs?!?

nop

Looked pretty rubbish out there. Toothless. Win the league? Not likely. Not like that we wont.

goonies

Giroud is hopeless tbh

titus

The fuq are subs for?

mo974

sorry but if arsene doesn’t see that ramsey and ozil need a real break then we are fuck big time. please give the keys back to santi and rest ozil a bit cause he need to adjust to EPL. frustrating game, and no incentive a very few but we could have steal it if only we had a world class striker
