FS2. I guess that is better than FS+, but I'm visiting my parents this weekend and Cox doesn't have HD FS2.
Same with Cox BR.
Sucks not having HD, but I'm just thankful I get to watch it.

Yeah I just watched on iPad.
Good win. I like when we can play Santi deep.

Biggest thing I noticed was that playing Gabriel with Koscielny allows us to play a 4-2-3-1. Flamini and Cazorla never looked under pressure, and the only time we looked caught out was when Chambers was way upfield and Reach made a good play to get Gabriel the yellow. Obviously will be a different story with good teams, but Wenger realizes we become a much different team when Mertesacker is paired with Kos. Overall the offensive partnerships between Ozil and Sanchez worked pretty well, and they looked close on 2 occasions of scoring. Lots of positives today. It feels like we are on the edge of everyone clicking. Need Wilshere, Ox, and Ramsey back to give us some variety.

Just watched Gunnerblog's "On the Whistle" video and he brought up the idea of playing him there while Ramsey is out.

If yall can get a copy read this month'so FourFourTeo cover story on Alexis.
Lots of great stories. His nickname as a child was El Dilla - "The squirrel." When he finishes football he wants to be an actor, and his dream role is either a detective or an astronaut.
ETA: He was also called Nino Marvillo - The wonder kid.

Good win, like our chances to repeat. Damn ozil and santi are just magical together.

Ozil created seven goal scoring chances. That is just absurd.

Yeah he's been brilliant since he's returned. I think our first XI right now, if everyone is healthy, is as follows
Welbeck is depth across the front three. He's not clinical enough yet, but is a defensive option if we need him. He, Ox, and Theo provide a rotation for us to pick from. I like when we can play Santi deeper. He helps transition from defense to attack so well with his ability to keep the ball in tight areas, and he sprays the ball side to side beautifully, and he makes incisive passes from deeper. Also moves Ozil centrally.
If not that, then this.
And Ox could slot in for Ramsey, who's not been in great form this year.
Healthy, we have so many options and I hope we get relatively fit for a push down the stretch. We're only two back of third, City is struggling in second.
On a side note, if we'd had the sort of keeper play United has had this year (not that ours has been awful), is there any doubt we'd be third and pushing for second?

The options at Wenger's disposal are great. Arsenal hasn't had this much depth in so long. Squad selection is almost difficult..
If our keeping was on par with ManU we would be right with City. No doubt in my mind.

Stevie I think I still put Gibbs ahead of Monreal but otherwise I agree with your ideal lineup.
Posted on 2/16/15 at 1:05 pm to cwil177
Gibbs gives us more going forward but Monreal's run in the center has made him a fricking fighter at left back. Which is funny because I used to think Monreal's runs made him better than Gibbo going forward while Gibbs dealt with physicality better.

So Away at Preston North End or Manchester United....
Posted on 2/16/15 at 3:55 pm to RTR America
Man U it is. Bring it on, we can definitely win

Our lineup for the last matchup....
...proceeds to knock on wood until the game....

Remember Jack's miss in that last United game? He puts that away and Arsenal win the game

time for some retribution for that abortion of a game earlier in the season.
let's do this

I know we are not playing... At Finns for the first time. Saturday mornings are hard to make living in BR.

Guy in the Bayern jersey is drockw1 the poster. I might be there for the second half.

I love Gibbs, but he has to injury problems. Montreal is first choice for me. I think him playing cb has advanced his defensive skills 10 fold.
Thus is good though, you see Gibbs and chambers elevate their game. They lost their spot.
Excuse my drunkeness. But these folk don't like us. I'm guessing this is one day Arsenal doesn't take this bar over.
