Sublime. 11 BPL matches left. Some tough games in there, but we're right in this.
Thought the commentating was awful, starting it by saying we're completely out of the ECL. What. The. F*ck. We still have a game to go and have a track record showing we can score 2 goals away. Even when Giroud scored the opener it was all 'Sunderland were awful' rather than 'sublime movement and passing from Arsenal'. Just did not feel neutral at all.
Yeah, that's a lovely goal.
Stoke (A) 01/03 - PL
Everton (H) 08/03 - FA Cup
Bayern Munich (A) 11/03 - CL
Tottenham (A) 16/03 - PL
Chelsea (A) 22/03 - PL
Manchester City (H) 29/03 - PL
That's how the rest of March looks.
Easy.

Ramsey should be back around the Everton game from memory, the boys should be pretty refreshed with a week off now. Not sure how much effort we should put into the Bayern game with this schedule to be honest

Cocks deflated this morning
Europa League at best beckons.
I think they will take us a little more serious than last year at their home. I'd obviously love a good result, but would be happy with us putting up a good fight, even getting a positive result, without going through. The worst case scenario is being put to the sword before the following three games.
I think premier league wins against Stoke and Tottenham are a must, while a win / draw or draw / draw will be acceptable against Chelsea and City. That's a win / draw against either of them. Draw / Loss in either order would certainly be game over.

thanks uberG
I thought maybe he makes them and wondered how easy it is to do...
Also here's some interesting stuff from Wenger on Sanogo;

Arsenal, where do you get your gifs like that one in your signature? Do you make them yourself?
Vertonghen would be an awesome buy. I doubt Belgium would be impressed with Vermaelen and Vertonghen both at Arsenal behing Mertesacker and Koscielny though. Assuming that partnership continues to thrive, and Vermaelen stays.
I think that's awesome about pulling Sanogo out for 2 months in England and 2 months in France to rebuild / condition him. It sounds like it worked really well. It looks like it did too. Hopefully that will help him with his injuries too.
See ya Nicklas.
I'd love it but I can't see us getting vertonghen, there's no way spurs would sell him to us at any price unless no one else wanted him. And surely he's got at least 2 years to run on his contract so he won't be interested in winding it down and coming on a free.
Also, not to be a doomsday merchant, but we're far from confirmed in the top 4 at this stage. We're 3 points away from 4th and it'll only take a bad couple of results in our March Death Run to drag us down to Spurs level.
Stoke next in the league, followed by:
Spurs (A)
Chelsea (A)
Man City (H)
Lose those three and we'll be right in amongst the rabble.
On the other hand, win those three and we'll probably be favourites to win the league!

2 wins and draw out of those 3 games and we would be a very position.

Can't recall where I got this one from, I didn't make it.
Re: Vertonghen, hell yeah I'd take him. If he wants Champions League football he can come on over.

yeah he'll never get it at his current employers
Paul, neither the Cocks or Chq books will get to 4th. Regardless of how poorly we play or even a Liverpool collapse
We need to beat Stoke because MCFC have the weekend off, adds a little pressure. well maybe.
How old is Leggy? Is he 12 or 72?
Read in an article this morning that the entire squad got 2 days off after the Sunderland result, which is nice for the players but also a probably a well needed rest before the up and coming games.
Also read that Ramsey is targeting Spurs as his comeback game, meaning he'll miss Stoke, Everton and Bayern Munich. Hopefully that's the case, be good to see him again.
Campbell pre-match was talking about coming back and fighting for a place in the team. I don't think Bendtner, Sanogo, or Giroud could score those kind of goals...I'd love to see him get a shot at a place.
Be interesting to see if United can turn it around.
Can't fekkin believe we couldn't beat that rubbish side. Embarrassing to not get points off that Moyes side.
If you are old and wise you were probably young and stupid

I heard the reason campbell is away on loan is because he cant get a work visa. I hope that gets sorted for next season.
tickets sorted for the Everton FA Cup game, meaning that for some reason I will have been to every Arsenal FA Cup game this season. As a designated lucky charm, I believe that you lot should pitch in for my tickets to the semi final and final.
All I do is make the stuff I would've liked
Reference things I wanna watch, reference girls I wanna bite
Now I'm firefly like a burning kite
And yousa fake fuck like a fleshlight
