You're asking for trouble opening a goon thread. You know these goons are emotional lot and blame everyone else when they lose. Good luck

AW has chosen not to add any defensive player to that MF - it's a lot to expect from Xhaka - Ramsey is useless - plus we give too much space - not good in a very wide Wembley pitch - the torture is closing in!!!!

Where's My Son?

As for the formation, provided they resist becoming a back five and can engage the wingbacks, it should be interesting. Monreal was poor vs Downing and Co, t'is essential Alexis drops back and covers. Navas on the right should be a defensive liability, albeit with the potential for greater attacking threat, Sanchez needs to pin him quick fast like ramadan, it's the rap phenomenon dun, dada...Not so quietly confident, two goliaths with the defensive resolve of a masochistic mare on a date with Chris Brown,both teams have disappointed and neither is capable of holding a full bladder let alone a lead. City will start fast and be picked off on the counter, 3-2. A red card somewhere in there? Why not.

Heart says Sanchez & Ozil play to their level & Arsenal win 2-1.

Head says Pep scorches AW and 3-5-2 and Man City stroll to a 3-1 victory.

1st step for Arsenal unlike recent form, don't concede goal inside 20 minutes.

If they play like they did v Boro, they're going to get lit up to shreds. Lets see whether take 2 of the 3 man back is any better than the first try.

Every Gooner justifiably fear the worst today.

Good luck to the boys but allowing city more than 70 % of possession is not good .I can'twatch again,wil do replay after result.

I'm exaggerating to point out how turnover prone he has been. Literally every time but one that he's touched the ball has been a turnover

Giroud struggling right now

Cmon Xhaka, get the ball forward!
