Arsenal will be under real pressure to win on saturday , if we can get ahead the fans will show their frustration -we have a chance of a result .

Wenger will be delighted about playing us next. Whenever a team really needs a result, we often oblige, and I can't see anything other than a resounding display of generosity from us here. 4-0.

After last night i bet Arsenal fans looked at the fixture and thought "thank fuck for that it the villa"

They are having a torrid time with loads of bad press, we won our last game and show some fighting spirit

5-0 Arsenal  :'(

Looking at their defence last night, i can see our front three of Gabby, Zoggy and Benteke causing them a few problems.

I'd like to see N'Zog stay in the hole where he has been devastating, rather than wide, I might throw Holman in on the right as he's naturally a more defensive minded player than Weimann/Dawkins/Bowery.  Given as Arsenal aren't brilliant in the air, I'd play Bennett rather than Baker at left back, but maybe go with Baker over Clark at centre half.

I think this could well be a game between the team with the best record this season for scoring after the 80th minute against the team with the worst record for conceding in that period. I also have a gut feeling the result could be nil nil. Just don't ask me to back up that prediction with any facts or logic.

If we can stop them scoring for the first 89 minutes, we may get something out of this



Or maybe not

I'm expecting an Arsenal backlash after the last couple of weeks they've had. 5-1 to them.
