Official Gooners Thread - A New Hope

I can see Wilshere milling Mirrallas the first chance he gets.

[ONeill]

That's the first I've seen of Ross Barkley. Great prospect for Everton.

@Woolberto: Classic move by Mirallas squirting the water on Wilshire. I once did the same thing to Paul Casey in Croker #COYB

[Captain Obvious]

Good result for Tottenham and Chelsea.

0-0. Fair result. Everton one of the better teams Arsenal have played at the Emirates.

Could be a crucial point with Chelsea to play Spurs in a few rounds.

Will Wilshere start next game? What i seen Saturday he was poor and same tonight,is Wenger afraid of leaving him out  ?

[ONeill]

You'd imagine he'll give Jack a break at the weekend, bringing Rosicky back in.

Yep draw keeps Everton at arms length and with Arsenal's superior goal difference it means UCL qualification is in their own hands still.

[Main Street]

It looks doable but barely.
Though I don't know if Wenger can take the pressure. He could spontaneously combust should Fulham put in a tackle on Saturday.

[Billys Boots]

I hear there's talk of Real Madrid wanting to talk to Wenger - could be an out for the Prof and Arsenal.  Any talk about it among Gooners?

[Dinny Breen]

He has one year left on his contract, could be just posturing.

He's a control freak so can't see Madrid been a realistic opportunity for him.

bad result yesterday and tonight for us

bad result yesterday and tonight for us

Didn't think it was that bad, Gerry. Everton are a good side. Spurs yet to play City and Chelsea. Chelsea have the Euro games to be thinking about as well as Spurs and Everton.

Need to be beating Fulham on Sat. Draw that and it's uphill.

[Norf Tyrone]

Chelsea have Lpool and Utd away with Everton and Spurs at home.

I think Arsenal will come 3rd tbh.

[Main Street]

Yes Chelsea's run in is by far the most difficult but they are in impressive form.
It will be very tight if they get past Basel. Tottenham can afford to have a couple of spring breaks with their schedule especially if their game with Chelsea is postponed for a week.
