There is a rare starter for Arsenal today in the shape of our Czech Republic international Tomas Rosicky. The move to bring the midfielder into the starting line-up is probably being forced on to the manager, but with Arsene Wenger still having to cope without almost every first choice central midfielder in the Gunners squad, the Frenchman is probably delighted that Rosicky has at least made himself available.
There is no Chamberlain, Ramsey, Arteta or Wilshere because Wenger seems to have spectacularly offended the god of football injuries somehow, so Cazorla and Rosicky will have to make sure that Mathieu Flamini is nit left too much on his own.
At least the Gunners are playing at home against a team we should easily beat in QPR. Hopefully that will mean that we are attacking almost constantly and the need to protect our back four will not be too much in evidence.
Szczesny
Debuchy, Mertesacker, Monreal, Gibbs
Flamini, Rosicky, Cazorla
Alexis, Giroud, Welbeck
subs: Ospina, Bellerin, Chambers, Coquelin, Walcott, Podolski, Campbell
The in-form and prolific QPR striker Charlie Austin is clearly the danger man but we have plenty of those ourselves and as long as we take on this game with the right frame of mind, it should end up with three points and a lot happier time for Arsenal fans.
goodbye prince poldi, wherever u go- all the best.
mertesacker an flamini to be our rocks today…….cough
Flamini again and again …
All hail the Rose!!!
Monreal doing a better job as a CB than Granper Sacker.
That awkward moment Flamini tries to dribble.
traore- once a gooner- always a gooner-
thnaks armand-
shame alexis is dealing with turkey withdrawal-
Sanchez vindicates himself with an orgasmic header.
Giroud red card. We have too many dumb players. Averagely, talentless and too big for their own shoes.
Giroud acting like NY_Gunner: losing his temper unnecessarily.
Dangit predicted Alexis 34th min goal, came at 36th
Hope you all had a very good Xmas
Goners, names of any good streams ? Thanks in advance
day.to
FirstRowSports is 90% of the time flawless.
Chamberlain supposedly injured now, more indication that our players are f*cking delicate nonces or Wenger’s training methods are shit
Prediction
4-1
Sanchez 57′
Expecting a high scoring game.
Arsenal comfortably.
Goal fest. π π
Not comfortable with Monreal at CB but I am hoping he will prove me wrong and have a good game.
Otherwise looks like a decent side, but still do not understand why Podolski is not given a chance to start
It’s OK – it’s a world cup year
That was a lazy penalty
Somebody will be hacked off
they will not win the Huawei phone π
Some one else will be happy.
I have Cazorla thought he was the penalty taker now ?.
Still time for another penalty π
Rosicky is playing well
qpr are absolute sh*te away.
easy win.
Ε΄onder why rosicky isn’t played enough. He already has created so many chances
no kidding, rosicky has fresh legs, looks good,
remind me why rosicky was left out when he wasnt injured?
We need to take shots from edgr of the box. Rangers parking.
We have become really poor, I’d say we’re on the same level as Everton now.
you’re spot on, really need Kos in back, Oz in middle and Theo up top, otherwise we seem to be a mid table squad… even arteta seems to spread the ball around better then flamini,
Come on Arsenal.. Score. Can’t afford any mess ups.
feels like one of those dayz, better not draw these guy! think the announcer just said tackled by nacho flamini…
qpr r so poor….wow
And we can’t even score
Arsenal should wear them down
The goals are coming
I sat here saying Carzola must take penalty and then Alexis misses.
Rosiky and Carzola look our best players.
Play Rosiky more Wenger
Hi guys,
Not watching the match right now. Relying on your commentary guys.
Good lick to the Gunners.
*luck*
What the hell is Mertesacker doing pushing that high into the QPR RB position?
QPR are playing rugby.
You know why Chelsea get no injuries? The ref protects their players watched Westham game and it was evident
How Welbeck has been playing 5 seasons in BPL is beyond me.
The guy is poor..
Sanchez you beaut
i just cant figure out wekbeck… something just dont click, thanks sanchez,
hahahaha
who was marking sanchez- qpr are goinn downnnnnnn
love u alexis – same as always
beautiful creation Gibbs, excellent header placement Alexis
When we put crosses in the box why do only ever have 1 player in there.
Watching Chelsea they have 3 or 4.
OG, Welbeck and someone else must make sure they move their asses
Don’t sit off them. Go for the kill.
Come on Mert, grow up
#IN17WETRUST! Coyg!!!
Awww Rosiky and Carzola are playing really well together, almost put OG through
Game on. That should open the game up more. QPR need to come forward now.
I must say, OG looking much better than last yr, seems to get into open spaces deeper in the box, i think up top w theo, assuming theo gets healthy, could be productive…
Agreed!!!would really like to see theo on with sanchez still on the pitch!!
Just curious, why was Mertesacker on the right wing at times during that half? As our only real centre back I’d rather he stayed put.
I was saying the same. He got skinned earlier own when he was in qpr RB position, he then was square all body positioning wrong and a one two later qpr were in the clear for a counter..
Rosicky Rosicky Rosicky..!!!! We missed you..!
Rosicky can turn out to be a deep lying playmaker, he doesn’t need to go forward to give throughball over the top.
Respective team talks:
Redknapp: you lot need to Adam and Eve in yourselves and stop walking around like you’ve got a pair of Alan Whicker’s on. All I care about is getting my battle and money and heading down the battlecrusier so get your act together.
Wenger: *tear drops down eye* wtf is mulled wine? *bursts into tears* it was warm. *Steve Bould steps in* Nacho and Per, try not to **** this up. Welbeck, not sure what your game is but try to do something useful. *Wenger gets up* Why would it be warm?
Are u drunk?? Who cares abt redknapp & hiz team !!!
Yes
West Ham game on Sunday has been giving me a bad feeling all week.. Don’t know why..
#alexsong!!!
@Wazzzimbo
Dangit predicted Alexis
34th min goal, came at 36th.
You got one hand on the Huawei mate.
2 mins off, correct score so far – chuffed haha
Giroud you f’n donkey, play for the team you douche
3 match ban for the donkey kong, hopefully it won’t cost today.
Lovely show … Giroud … think he is Cr. Ronaldo or something
hahahaha
wtf olly
3 game break for you π
enjoy your hols- donut
Giroud you f*ckin knob head. Looks like Theo’s starting at West Ham then!
Giroud you stupid donkey
Well done Giroud for getting sent off.
You can guarantee that one of those idiots will f**k it up.
Last week it was Mertseacker
This week its Giroud.
Is there a competition at Arsenal to see who can be the biggest idiot ?
Because if there is then Wenger is leading by a mile…
hahahaha
The warmth embrace of capitulation – how I have missed you
Now Welbeck will lead line against Westham and Southampton.
Maybe this will mean Theo starts on Sunday
thats what I get for finally praising Giroud, moron, now we have no OG for 3 games and of course Poldi gone…
We’re not going to get the result…
Just waiting for our weekly defensive capitulation.
Its coming, you know it is…
It’s not even that donkey Kong misses the next games, it’s that now everyone needs to exert more energy to get a result now with congested fixtures
Poor old Olivier. Lol.
lol- what a guy. what-a-guy
Wenger should bring on Coq for Welbeck, push Sanchez up top
3 games in 10 days and now we have only Welbeck as a striker too..
MOZART WHOOHOOO
Good for Rosicky after having such a long time without a game.
wenger how do u feel about leavin tomas out
#IN17WETRUST we trust good assist #sanchez! !!
Might have to keep Podolski
and Sanogo now.
Campbell might get his chance.
Theo Rambo Ozil Chamberlain coming back
So plenty of options.
ALEXIS 2 QPR 0
Can somebody tell me why the DELUDED ONE has WELBECK playing instead of Podolski
It’s not over yet..
all hail alexis sanchez if only we had one more player like him.
Why wasn’t that ugly stupid lipped Ferdinand sent off for grabbing our stupid giroud around the neck???
Sanchez is selfish sometimes, but I guess I wouldn’t want to pass to Welbeck either.
Head scratch that
wenger waiting for 90th minute to bring poldi
Why don’t we just play short corners, at least we will keep possession
Cazorla and Rosicky have been brilliant in midfield.. Sanchez has been brilliant upfront..
Not a penalty, ref is wrong.
What a great dive
Not a penalty..
no substitute unless they burn out … wenger out
The referees of PL are shocking.. He was right there to see it and gave it. What a f’n tool.
I’m so tired of the premier league referees, every match there is at least one big decision that they get wrong
Make a change Wenger, we creating chances why not bring on premier league best finisher “Poldolski”.
And Le Coq
tired of watching the worst arsenal team i remember in a decade or more….the rahman guy is about right 5 more players to get back to being a top team…plus a new manager of course…
Why is that not a penalty what the difference
Not a penalty and Ferdinand should have seen red as well.
It pisse# me off
#######
Come on boys, let’s grind out a result at home, to QPR.
Well done.
The weekly defensive collapse begins.
Giroud obviously has competition for idiot of the week with Debuchy.
And to think they get paid Β£40000+ a week for this when so many a far more deserving.
Makes me wants to throw up…
Put 2 players to cover the right
That’s the problem with Sanchez. He sometimes holds onto the ball too much.. Should know when to pass..
Come on Arsenal.. Hold on..
Time to seat WELBECK….I was young last time he scored a goal.
the zonal mark attack again….
Again more crying
Everyone ball watching there//
All i can see an old clown with a lanky crooked nose managing a circus in Emirates and putting on a great show. LOL.
Haha haha crying from laughter
We cannot just sit back
We must push out
π
Fcking Giroud had gotten us into trouble..
Well that was a joke
thanks god for alexis and rosicky…
I hope you all have a great new year.
