Arsenal v Aston Villa Pre-Match Thread

[Proposition Joe]

I'll take a point. For selfish reasons, i don't mind the winning streak pausing, because I have tickets for the Forest game, and if we win 12 in a row at Arsenal there's no way we'll make it 13. And I want to see a win!

Bookies don't have us 6/1, punters do. If you're offended, bet twenty grand on Villa and it will soon change.

you put the 20k up and I'll go put it on 😂😂

I would do but I've invested all my savings on Northern Rock shares. As soon as they turn a profit I'll get it sorted.

Without Mings/Torres/Cash/Kamara I'd be delighted with a draw. I'm not sure if they'll go for us after the rope a dope at Chelsea, and it could be a bit cagey.

                     Martinez
Bogarde. Konsa.    Lindelof.     Digne
            Onana.         Tielemans
McGinn.         Rogers.         Maatsen
                       Watkins

You can now get 7 to 1. 
Tempting.

If we had Cash and Kanaranzi I'd back that, but we don't and it's probably why we're so long.

Wait for them to score first to fully maximise value anyway.

Looks like Arsenal with have 3 of the main defenders back. I think Arteta left Timber out against Brighton as a precaution to play against us. Without Kamara and Cash it will be very difficult. The sub options that Unai uses so well will be restricted. I would rather Bogarde in the midfield but think Unai will play him at right back. A massive game with a lot of pressure on Arsenal.
