[Chap]

Probably our best lineup.

[Percy McCarthy]

Five Emery signings!

[Rigadon]

Odd they’re starting Mereno?  Good to see their CHs don’t make miraculous recoveries

[AlexAlexCropley]

Rice passes a fitness test.Let's hope he's not 100%

[eye digress]

Not left ourselves too much up our sleeves if things go awry, but that midfield is so strong (if narrow).

[Flamingo Lane]

No Guessand?

[PeterWithesShin]

Evann Guessand has not been included in Aston Villa's squad to face Arsenal due to injury.

[Sexual Ealing]

Horrible feeling about this. We've been getting good press. We don't want good press, it goes to their heads and they fuck it all up under the spotlight.

[Hampshire Villa]

Elliott doesn't even make the bench?? Why did we get him?

[PaulWinch again]

I think we’ll get beat but hopefully I’m wrong.

[Chris_Jephcott]

Any good omens out there today?

We have an amazing ability to shit the bed when we’re close to greatness. But then again, we are high in confidence and in fortress.

[jwarry]

No Guessand?

Injured apparently

[PeterWithesShin]

We were going to shit the bed v Wolves, and Brighton. We will drop points over the season but we need to stop shitting ourselves every game, Arsenal are more scared of us than we are of them.
