Arsenal -our next opponents, a team that are under achieving big time . What do we have to be concerned about ? Nothing at all. Their last win in the league was early in November . Their only wins since then have been in Europe against a bunch of Norwegian vikings and Viennese Waltzers. We will never have a better chance of getting a result down in North London. All we have to do is keep our shape and be a bit more adventurous. After having seen them have most of the possession today at Spurs, and still getting beat, because they created very little, I am very optimistic. Anyone feel as positive as me ?

been feeling a little sorry for my Arsenal supporting friend....he's a fine gent - but as Spurs parked the bus for the second half of the match, because the Gunners were 2-0 down and deemed to be of little threat to them....then all We need do, is what we can do best (preferably after we've scored)....Defend, meaning, for my old mate...it's tears again.

If only we had Kane and Son, what a bloody great double act those two are.
Spurs look genuine title contenders to me, but I would love us to beat the Gunners and draw them a bit nearer to us.![]()
Ha ha , it’s got 0-0 written all over it - they can’t score we can’t score a thriller from Manila is on the cards.
I’m hoping not but we’ll see - problem we’ll have them s Arteta will be saying / thinking this kicks us on again a big result and we March onwards - and we’re nervous anywhere in our opponents last third of a pitch.
Arsenal are 15th in the league but I can't get too excited, City were 14th when we played them, didn't stop them smacking 5 past us, hitting the woodwork twice and having another disallowed.
If City are our bogey team Arsenal are not far behind. With a series of perplexing decisions going in the Gunners favour we had only picked up a single PL point against them until last time out in a 0-0 draw at Turf Moor when we really should have won. How did Jay Rod miss! A win here would be massive.
I am always positive Malwayne, even if I don't sound it, but it is Burnley we are talking about, whether its Real Madrid or Wrexham we are playing, its not the opposition that worries me, its ourselves and what tactics we employ, which are generally negative, plus its Arsenal who always seem to get the nod of the Ref with some rank decisions going against us in many previous games.
All I hope is that we give a good account of ourselves and don't get stuffed as I couldn't bear the thought of Piers Morgan gloating next Monday Morning!
