    Seriously tho....
    Arsenal will be hurting after not winning a league game in Nov.
    We are buzzing after 2 clean sheets & 2 wins on the bounce.

    I deffo think its a good time to play them... Confidence is an awesome tool to have in your bag

    I'm going for 0-0 or 0-1 !!!

    Pretty much as good a time as possible. Sanchez is world class, and without Koscielny their defence is nowhere near what it is with him in the side. Having said that, I'd be over the moon with an away point at the Emirates...

    They have the massive game in Greece to worry about as well in that midweek, but will we make no mistakes like the last 2 matches ?

    I'd settle for the same result as last season 0-0, but wouldn't be averse to a sneaky 1-0 win.:emoticon-0100-smile

    Probably the best time possible I agree.

    Plenty injuries, huge midweek game, our confidence on the up.

    Take a point all day long :emoticon-0148-yes:

    @Big Funk Allardyce did Cazorla get injured yesterday as he started the game? Never saw the whole thing though!

    If that's their injury list then it is a good time to play them as they're missing majority of their creative players.

    Once Sanchez went off yesterday they had no outlet ball at all. Nothing stayed up front and it was easy for Norwich - every cross was aimless and floated as well. Although the player to be very wary of is Oxlade-Chamberlain! Class attacking player. But better that than being worried about him, walcott, cazorla, sanchez etc!!

    Edit - I'd take a draw now though!

    Not many players get injured as soon as they start the game <yikes>

    Yep, he Koscielny and Sanchez all picked up injuries. All have no return date though that could change over the week once they've been assessed.

    That`s one hell of an injury list.

    It`s up to us to make the most of these situations and I can see us frustrating the hell out of Wenger. They`re not up there in the dizzy heights of the prem for nothing though and I`d take a point now.

    and let's remember that Sam would love to get one over on Wenger-boy. He thinks he's a right arrogant twerp. we have a good chance.

    Set up as for Palace. Defend deep, attack when the opportunity arises. Point would be great, 3 would be a massive bonus <ok>

    That, I would suspect, is exactly the way Sam`s looking at it.

    Rightly so imo.
