Its the NLD this weekend, you'd have thought playing Burnley (no offence) or anything...
But where is all the buzz about it, normally we would be going hammer and tong with the Spurs fans but it all seems a bit quite...
So whats do people think the score will be, who will score,.... I think it will be tough game in my opinion, in will be a high intensity game...
My team would be:
------------------Szs-----------------------
---Coq--------Mert-------Kosh----Gibbs
-----------Arteta-------Ramsey-----------
-----Alexis-------Ozil------------Cazorla----
-----------------Welbeck-------------------
Bench: Chambers, Ospina, Rosicky, Oxlade, Wilshere, Diaby
North London Derby

If we have a shot on target I'll be happy
The only way we have any hope is to play 5 along the back line when defending, compacting the midfield & looking to counter.
In my eyes we should look to go there and be a typical mid table defensive team and hoping for a result
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The funny thing is 'typical mid table defensive teams' actually know how to defend. We have a converted winger at left back, a central defender at right back and a central defender who seems to think he is Ronaldinho

I think we will have shots on target in this game. Not sure how many and if we will win or lose.
But you mistake Arsenal for those teams that look to defend above all else. This makes it very difficult for teams trying to make an opening. Hopefully Arsenal have a bit more confidence about them to put themselves in that bracket and at home will look to attack and win. We could see an open and entertaining game who ever wins.

Spurs fans don't realise how bad we've been this season. I know we're unbeaten in the league (only for another weak) but performance wise we haven't been great.

we are bollox. the fact that arsenal are also rubbish is irrelevant. we will collapse like a new born deer at the first spell of arsenal pressure.
its inevitable.
and if that doesn't happen, we will be well in the game, then a dreadful individual mistake will gift arsenal the goal, and then we will fold like a pack of cards that has just been hit by a boulder

Unless we play the team the OP has (with Chambers in for Coquelin), I can see us drawing or possibly even losing. Hopefully Spurs are as bad as their fans are making them out to be because I can see us reverting to 4-3-3 with Ozil on the left again which is a recipe for disaster. If we play the same team that beat Villa with Alexis in for Ox then I think we'll win 1-0 or 2-0.
