Arsene Wenger clearly wants his Arsenal team to finish the season with a flourish, and a fluent and stylish one at that, because in this final match of the Premier League season the boss has packed his starting line-up with our most creative and entertaining players.
And despite all the talking up of our flying England international forward in the build up to the game, that does not include Theo Walcott. The exciting young Alex Iwobi is not in either, and neither is Joel Campbell. Instead the boss has gone for the passing and technical ability of Jack Wilshere on the other side of the attacking line to Alexis Sanchez, with Olivier Giroud keeping his place at the point of the Arsenal attack.
The fit again Mesyt Ozil is back and he will have the considerable talents of our little Spaniard Santi Cazorla to unlock the leaky Aston Villa defence. To balance all this attacking intent Wenger has brought back Francis Coquelin to break up play and protect the back four.
Cech
Bellerin, Gabriel, Koscielny, Monreal
Coquelin, Cazorla
Wilshere, Ozil, Sanchez
Giroud
Subs: Ospina, Gibbs, Arteta, Ramsey, Elneny, Campbell, Iwobi.
So it looks like it could be a tough 90 minutes for the already relegated bottom side, while hopefully for Arsenal fans it will be a big finish and maybe even a happy ending if Newcastle can do us a favour against Tottenham. COYG.
Bob.
WE LOVE YOU ARSENAL
AND ALWAYS WILL
UP THE GOONERS!!!!
Where was this atmosphere all season. Terrific stuff, absolutely fantastic. Fans are the biggest motivational tool a club has at it’s disposal. Fans mood went right up, players effort right along with it. Glad to see Wenger so animated over the last number of games, himself and Wilshere let their feelings be known. Arsenals drastic PL season beats totts best ever one. Mind the huge gap there Poch, how people jumped on his bandwagon Ill never know, like I said, he doesn’t come close. Arsenals fans today make certain people in here look and sound ridiculous.
Fans are most important motivational tool.
Arsenal need support not anti BS.
Neutrals love Arsenal and I couldn’t blame them.
Supporters really were terrific today.
ps, that wasn’t a reply above Muff. Just came in to leave a quick comment. COYG, gotta love the Arsenal. What do ya know, we are capable of filling the stadium with real fans. Loved every minute of it.
Lets win this 13-0 just to be sure if Newcastle draw π
LOLL
cazorla and le coq! nice!
jack ozil and alexis boom!
lets supprt them as one lads last game of the season π
I sincerely think if we played with this starting 11 we would have won the league.
Ramsey on the bench, Walcott not in the team replaced by Campbell on the bench! Happy gooner.
A convincing win and 3 Ozil assists would be great π
Great goal giroud… Guess who’s back???
come on Newcastle!
I can envisage Arsenal at the 2nd position at the end of today’s games.
COYG!
Fckn love it. Newcastle winning & across the country Sp*rs fans arses are twitching like fck. LOL!
Whoever gave this post a thumbs down is not a true Gooner. Do one yer plastic!
commentators absolutely right.. cazorla showing in brilliant way what exactly we missed π
and sanchez playing superb and… that lob from ΓΆzil to sanchez.. brilliant
got to say we really missed santi
Agree 100%. The season might have played out much differently if he had been fit.
2-0!!! lmao
Love it. Can’t wait for the banter to start with the melts from down the Lane.
lets hope we dont mess up here. lol
True JP.
We’re still 1 up after the first half.
I hope we don’t mess up. Newcastle is doing us a favour here.
COYG
COYT
Newcastle keeping their end of the bargain, let’s do this!
Will somebody for the love of Christ shoot the freaking ball
Typical Arsenal ticky tack BS.
can u imagine if spurs lose an we dont win…
lol
haha lol it would be typical of this season but this site would be on fire
Can we just end all the games now? Lol I’m loving these scorelines across the board.
WTF!!! Bomb threat at Old Trafford, suspected package explosives set for a controlled detonation in Sir Alex Ferguson’s stand.
It’s the only thing that can put a smile on our faces.
Arsenal please do not **** this up. St totteringhams day could well happen lol ?
The utd game was abandoned due to a suspicious package,
It turned out to Van Gals suitcase and belongings!
Come on Arsenal don’t you dare mess this up now!
While the Spuds are losing 2nil. ?
We should raid Newcastle for those two Goal scorers!
We were linked to that young striker of there’s, before they signed him…. another one for Wenger’s nearly signed list.
COYG’S!
Come on Newcastle! Roast those spurs!
Looks like it will be St Tottenham day after all! Coyg!
And is you’re best striker expecting him to give Ozl 30 assist.
he is simply a JOKE!
Hey guys I suspect there is disgruntled spurs fans trolling our site!
was thinking the same
2nd place and passing spuds would make for a decent campaign…
Now arsenal found an easy team to beat and they wasting chances like they are wining 6-0,can wenger please tell them its just 1-0? They should get their acts together.
our inability to press remains a basic weakness and a mystery as its a characteristic of all the top teams …
we have a one barrel carburator on a 6 liter engine…
Can’t believe we’re playing like this when there’s so much at stake – backsides need to kicked – this is embarrassing to watch.
Lamela has just scored π wtf wtf is wtf is going on with us today? Holiday mode?
all season we been holiday mode mate
thats kinda the reason we threw the title
but whatevs π
red card for castle, looking bad
Mitrovic is a colossal Dbag
please Arsenal score a second goal, so my nerves go away. lol
Don’t we have a better goal difference compared to spuds?a draw would be enough right?
loooool
no mate theres is miles bigger
they need to lose
and mitrovic just got a red
ffs
Goal difference, arsenal 25, tottenham 38.
sean, it would be less a goal difference if your hero could score a few
My hero has just scored again…common oli
And my hero just bagged his hat trick… Well done giroud… Great way to answer to all the criticism.
@muff. Yes good point your not wrong!
3rd place for Arsenal. Tot need a draw to finish second and it seems they will make it

Surely it’s done now? Giroud hatrick wtf!
what a day!! oh to be a spud must be miserable… never seen such bad karma on one squad… year after year, coyg!
fair play to Newcastle.. down to ten men and still attacking Tottenham
4-1
HAHAHAHA
Lets start to celebrate π
so thats 10 more years of Wenger and Giroud cause we finished above spuds for billionth time. Seriously, we’re acting like we won the league. We blew it and settling for a consolation prize once more. There’s nothing to celebrate.
5-1!
thinking same, really need a consistent center forward, hat trick against a relegated team when it does not count for much is sterile…
4-1, 2nd place!!
4-1 hahaha! God i love Newcastle
Not over yet..fingers crossed. It would be awsome to finish above the so called this season mighty spuds…f them.. Common oli…
Newcastle now scored four
Never mind make it 5 bwahahahaha

ROFL Newcastle put 3 past these muppets & with 10 men. fckn comedy gold this. Happy St Totteringham day to everyone.
Hoooora.. Congrats to everyone.. Great end to a disappointing season. But seriously Newcastle don’t deserve to go down…well done giroud today…he’s back…
Does anyone know any good funeral home in North London for spurs?
Happy st totteringham day Gooners???
5 1 with 10 men lmao. Can’t wait for moto tonight, I’ve not looked forward to it too much this season I must say.
But look at leicester, go one goal down away to chelsea, and then get one back.
We go a goal down to chelsea and game is lost
Happy St totteringham day once again…hahaha

OG Hatrick when not needed. Wenger will remind us how good he is.
