Newcastle v Arsenal... a quickie!

Okeydoke, let's take a quick look at my prediction for today's line-up.

I think Arsene will return to 4-4-2 today as 4-5-1 did not work on Saturday. I actually would like to see Cesc Fabregas given a run behind a main striker (like RVP) in a 4-5-1, but I doubt that will happen today.

Mr Wenger will select a line-up from this group of extraordinay gentlemen:

Arsenal (from): Lehmann, Eboue, Gallas, Toure, Clichy, Hleb, Fabregas, Gilberto, Rosicky, Ljungberg, Adebayor, Almunia, Denilson, Diaby, Aliadiere, Baptista, Senderos, Randall.

I think he'll go for something like this:

GK Lehmann
RB Hoyte (I think AW may be a little tired of Eboue's attitude)
LB Clichy
CD Gallas
CD Senderos (like Arseblog, I'm not sure the Touré/ Gallas partnership works. I also think Touré needs a rest.

RM Rosicky
CM Gilberto
CM Fabregas
LM Ljungberg

(Goodbye Hleb)

CF Adebayor
CF Aliadiere (His last chance. I think there's a slight chance that IF they play 4-5-1, he might be on the wing, with Rosicky occupying a more central position)

Subs: Almunia, Touré, Diaby, Baptista, Eboue.

No doubt my prediction will be completely wrong...

Arsenal 0 West Ham 1

The club are in a serious spot of bother now...

That's three very dodgy first-team selections that Wenger has made in row. Quite frankly it pisses me off.

Freddie Ljungberg never will be a centre forward and selecting him there is just crazy.

On the other hand, if that was a 4-5-1 selection against West Ham... well, then we deserved to be beaten.

Two defeats to West Ham this season and three in a row if you count last season. That's just fucking awful.

SORT IT OUT ARSENE!

And so ends a very short rant...
