arsenal here will go,

C'mon you gunners! Nice one Bendtner

na so

Wenger wants to come in?

Game is nicely poised!!!

Fuller skinning Verma! Surely the world must be coming to an end

Well Done Boyz
Make una no fall my hand again ooo.

Officiating in England is a joke,Is Fuller now an Arsenal player to stand "there" when we arehaving a FK?

Jeeez,see as RF they treat our defenders?

Ricardo Fuller has reduced Vermaelen's credibility.
TV5 is shyte!

up gunners a.k.a D-empty cabinet

Ramsey's influence on the game is more than Nasri and Cesc's contribution.

Good 1st half
Apart from that howler in defending Delap's throw in, we've been up for the fight
Ramsey,clichy,Nasri especially.
This is a fight and surely the Stoke hoodoo must end today.
Big ups to Nic for that super equalizer!

See you
TV5 would be amongst the team of the year,come May

End of first half.It's been a tight game with the Stoke lads closing down every available space,keeping it tight and waiting for a a break or opportunities to lauch it into the eighteen.

I expect Wenger to tell the lads to stop the tip-tap at the edge of the box and take shots as their defenders are quick to read our passes.I will also expect to see Walcott at some stage as i am sure they will tire out in the 2nd half.

Please lads,let make it count.

Arsenal have to take their chance oo. . .

They need to put this game away.

I like that Wenger has found a place for Eboue. I know
many Arsenal fans don't like him, but the boy is too talented
to keep out of the team. He can take players one on one, has pace
and is very decent in the passing game.

I do think Arsenal are beginning to have a problem at the full back positions.
Clichy still doesn't look like his old self and Sagna has no nous when it
comes to going forward.

Ultimately though, they need to put this thing away as soon as they can.
A little less of the fancy touch in the final third. Hold and spread please.

Hope we gain the lead early in the second half then pump them more

That is because Stoke consider Nasri and Cesc to be bigger threats than the rookie.
They have not allowed Cesc to get his rhythm in the game at all. . . .Big ups to Stoke for doing that.

The only thing is without Delap's throws and set-pieces, Stoke are gash!!!
If Arsenal can minimise the number of throw-ins, corner-kicks n indirect FKs. . . . .Y'all should be good.

Is Tuncay Sanli on the bench?
If he is. . . .Wenger should start fasting n praying.

After conceding 40 league goals? You must be high on shroomz.
Richard Dunne and Collins of Aston Villa will win that award every day of the week.

If only Arsenal put more crosses into the box, they will win more games.

I cant see Stoke winning this game though. They look so tired.

mess PHCN and the gen is refusing to start
counting on you guys for updates.

Arsenal fans would be diappointed if they fail to gather three points from this game.

How so?
5 Trophyless seasons didn't disappoint em and you expect a draw/loss at the Britannia Stadium to disappoint em?
Are you high on your toe-nails?

@ Chamotex,

Never write this Stoke team off.
They still have ball players in Kitson, Tuncay and Beattie to bring in if things get messy.

All of a sudden Doyin13 becomes an Arsenal supporter.
Pompey are still in the Premiership o . . . .at least until August when a new life starts in the Championship

We have too many center MF's inasmuch as it helps in keeping possession it kills us in counter attacks! I can't remember when last we scored from breaks

He has always been a GAYnner.
Don't let him fool you. . . .all those Pompey talks are a facade. . . .

The trophyless seasons made him declare himself a Pompey fan.
If the GAYnners win the UCL this season, he will renounce Pompey and adopt his darling team.

I feel he should drop back a lil and exert his influence from the back as against what he's trying to do at the final third.
One thing though,i really do MISS Diaby,his presence,physicality and ability to take on players would have been an added advt.

The only thing is without Delap's throws and set-pieces, Stoke are gash!!!

The way Stoke closes down their opponents,you can't but conceed those set-pieces as they give you little or no time dwell on the ball and make decisions.

Is Tuncay Sanli on the bench?
If he is. . . .Wenger should start fasting n praying.

Of course he is,but he can not do more than RF ATM.I expect Walcott to come decimate these buncha tugs with his pace in the 2nd half.

Sauron, they look jaded.
I just remembered they played extra time in midweek.

If Arsenal keep the ball and continue passing, Stoke wont have a sniff.

That was a PEN for me

That was a stone cold penalty
the challenge on Ramsey

chamotex:

That was a PEN for me

Ramsey dived!!!
He was on his down before the contact.

Another dive from Eboue.

At least Eboue is showing some consistency with his art of diving

He is now becoming a nuisance with that.
At least if you're going to dive, be good at it
