Another away game where we could potentially drop points.
Our away form this season has been shambolic for a top team where we have been completely void of creating chances. I'm shocked that we are still just only 4 point off Liverpool for 4th place with a game in hand.
You think with the players we have, creativity will be the last thing for us to worry about but once teams defend in numbers, we literally have no idea how to penetrate.
We don't make use of corners and set players as under wenger, it just seems that this aspect of the game is not given much attention to. We don't play with any width. The likes of Iwobi and Sanchez always cut in and don't make any runs to the by line to put in any deliveries.
It is a real concern and I'm concerned that tomorrow will be no different. Palace will defend deep and then break through the likes of Zaha.
With nacho injured I think wenger will stick with a back 4 and even the likes of AMN to help combat Zaha if he switches sides.
I would play walcott on the righ rather then Iwobi or Welbeck as he I think he will give us more going forward in terms of productivity.
But I don't see wenger changing things and except Iwobi to start.
Tough game tomorrow. What you guys expecting?
Will we struggle to create chances tomorrow

It means either Liverpool have been unlucky or Arsenal have been lucky or both.

Walcott, Castor you are actually being serious aren't you.Walcott is as good as gone in January. (I hope) Walcott is one of the main reasons that this team has gone backwards in the past ten years.So many chances,so many bad performances, He probably over the ten years has a good game every six and that's being generous.However the other five are shocking. In relation to the game yes it will be very tough. Hoping to sneak a 1-2 win.

I’m not looking forward to it personally
Palace are in good form and are set up to deal with our slow lethargic sideway passing game
Will take a good performance to take 3 points. One I don’t think we are capable of putting in at the moment

It's got to a point where I just cannot look forward to any of our away games. Shocking stuff.

Its very strange, last season Arsenal were exceptionally clinical and absorbed so many shots per goal conceded but this season its gone the other way lol. Arsenal are a bit like Man Utd of last season play well but get little in return.

As I keep saying we need to drop Xhaka. It will take a few games for the team to adjust to not having him but we will start to improve once we do.
