Prediction....2-0 Arsenal

Forgot Livermore. Stick him on the bench.

I'm never usually too concerned about playing Pulis teams at home.

It's away from home where I get the jitters. If this was at The Hawthorns, I think you'd have a good chance of winning, particularly as you've beaten us in the last two seasons there.

Realistically, I can't see you getting much from the game on Monday.

2-0 Arsenal.

Can't really tell with arsenal (as has been the case for the last decade or so).

wouldn't be surprised if we followed up last week's dogged, disciplined performance at stamford bridge by playing like children.

Everything is possible and thinkable. We are Arsenal.

Its about time we got something there. I was at Emirates last season when they won with a late scrappy goal. Prior to that Yacob spurned a golden chance from about a yard out to give us the lead.
I expect another dogged performance and 1-1.

I remember when we won at The Emirates a few years back. We were 0-3 up and missed a penalty.

Baggies what a stupid name

Why is it stupid?

Do you know where originates from?

Would like us to try the 3-5-2 experiment again or at least 4-2-3-1 with Chadli/Morrison closer to Rondon/Rodriguez. Expect us to go back to 4-5-1 and inviting pressure from the off. Our approach in away games means we are cannon fodder against the top 6 sides. Our away form in general is pretty dreadful with 1 away win in 2017.

i remember that. jerome thomas scored didn't he? and almunia played like a bit of a spaaaastic.

nasri had a stunning free kick come off the bar too

That's the one.

Don't think we've picked a point up at your place since those 3 points.

It's going to be 10 behind the ball and firing misfiles into our box at every opportunity. If we don't score early then the pressure will really be on.

Have to score early in these game as you guys will inevitably create something through a corner or set play

What's so funny?

I think its more to do with the article implying its at the hawthorns rather than at the emiorates

I fully expect us to lose this.

Pulis doesn't quite seem to know how to accommodate the new players yet. I feel we're a team in transition and it will be a few weeks before we get going.

You lot play 3 at the back now too? Interesting

Damn, that side looks brutal too. 5 defenders and 3 defensive midfielders

As of last week.
