Okay Arsenal fans this it, the latest chance for the Gunners to take advantage of the struggles of our old enemy and get one over Manchester United. There is the small matter of a trip to Wembley for the FA cup semi-final as a prize as well.
Louis van Gaal has made just one change to his side, with Luke Shaw coming in for the banned Jonny Evans and Rojo moving from left back to the centre. So Di Maria and Fellaini keep their places and Falcao stays on the bench.
Arsene Wenger has been a lot more liberal with his team selection, making five changes to the Arsenal line up that beat QPR last week. It is no surprise to see the boss bring Danny Welbeck in, hoping to get some of that fgormer club effect from the England striker.
We already knew that Szczesny and Mertesacker were set to start, with the other two players coming in the Spanish left back Nacho Monreal and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain in central midfield. Giroud drops to the bench so Ozil will be playing in one of the wide forward roles with Welbeck in the centre and Alexis on the other side. Cazorla moves back to his favoured CAM role.
Szvcesny
Bellerin, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Monreal
Coquelin
Alezis, Chamberlain, Cazorla, Ozil
Welbeck
subs: Martinez, Chambers, Gibbs, Ramsey, Walcott, Akpom, Giroud
FFS Welbeck hold onto the ball for once. Everytime the balls comes into him he loses it there and then.. smg
I never thought I would say this, WENGER please bring GIROUD ASAP
Ozil out
its time to move on….We must look for a new manager in summer
i agree, van gaal sux too,
Wow he’s finally been booked. Miracles
after 20 years, Fellaini finally receives a yellow
Dannnyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
DAT GUY WELBZ
welbeck haters, rejoice
Welbeck celebrating against United? Haha
Szvcesny and sanchez r absolutly awful!
Welbeck my son
1-2
GOAL
Welbeck celebrate like crazy boy
Okay Danny, you’ve redeemed yourself. Now let’s get the forward in who can hold up the ball please
Come on please defend this lead please guys
CANNOT BEEELLIIIEVVEE ITTT ONE MORE
Oh Danny Boy, the pipes are calling
welbeck sanchez sheezy and wenger needs to be released with the deadwoods
I have come to the conclusion that:
1)you are Nameless in disguise
2) You are a very sick old man
No ref no don’t be stupid
Young is SUCH A CHEAT
Wow. Alexis just completely burned Valencia. You know, the player FIFA said was the fastest in the world?
bellerin is an accident waiting to happen
I don’t care Welbeck off please!
That the problem with our defence, every time back pass to our goalie than our goal kick will go to them to easily attack us. Mert is alway so nervy.
Get Ozil out
Good swap, Bellerin would have been sent off otherwise
Dat awesome moment wen dat guy scores against manutd
Let park the train.
Monreal MOTM so far !!!
POSSESION don’t let MANURE control the Ball….have some one seen OZIL???
If we are going to defend all the way, is time to sub ozil.
oh alexi you beauty,
Oh boy, if Welbeck had missed that goal I would have smashed the TV lol
Still only 1 goal lead.
Lets score another one for a proper cushion
COYG
gervinho would have missed it wide,,, just saying
F….CKKKK DEGEA
Damn great chance for Cazorla but GREAT save by de Gea
We should give Welbeck some credit cos if that chance go to Giroud, I dont think he got the pace to beat the goalie.
Omgg stop it
De gea
Haha …well done Ref
If we lose this now..
Ok 1-2 and United 10 men
PLEASE don’t mess this up.
thats why u need a goal keeper. keep u in the game. would any arsenal goalie saved that from cazorla??!!
MU draw some top team with 10 man so we need 100% concentration.
hey di maria, its not spain anymore, we better close out w them down a man!!!
how many of us thinking arsenal gonna fxxk this up from this situation? thats the pathetic mind set we ve been made accustomed to
Geez, are you still weeping ?
They are down to 10 men and we are letting them run into space.
gone are the years when we wud hv torn apart a 10men team.
thats was united, at home on the ropes,
We better see this through
Our full backs must stay back, but we need 1 more goal guys, just 1
Can’t we sub Schezza he makes me nervy
Why aren’t we controlling the game????????
why the hell is our full backs bombarding now. why aint arsene shouting at them to stay back
Loving this ref
What a great ref, top class official
he should referee the Chelsea games
what an idiot januzaj. dont even know how to dive. thank god for once we hv a fair referee at old trafford
We must control possession now, the old Arsenal way.
Here’s an idea, let’s try and keep the ball lads!
its nearing ferguson time…. hearts in my mouth
Welbeck could be the difference hahaha pay back biatch
5 minutes, is this Fergie time or what
Why they always got extended injuries time.
no kidding, 5″, no injuries?
we should have spend and sign the ref….
Wenger still out!!
Not a good day for you Hafiz your team lost and lost to the better team. Di mari what a flop.
How did we screw that up
my god…what a goal keeper this guy is
Wenger shouting what, but he still sitting
Arsenal whoooooohoooooooooooooö
proud to be a gunner!!!!!!!
This is my most wonderful time being as a arsenal fan.
Ibfeel like weve just won the cl, beat my most hated team on their patch finally! Great and strong refereeing with some luck going our way for a change. Could have had three or four if not for degea. Coyg.
We played well, we are not perfect but darn today we were the BEST….nominate the whole team MenOTM…screw MANURE…..Welbeck there is someone watching for you up there well done lad.
and the draw is….. bradford reading!!?,
Bradford /Reading no way we can screw this one.
