we have to win this...cant give manure anther chance to extend their lead..and hope manure lose
-
Everton might pull a draw here
-
I think more points could be drop here... Not just 2, Maybe even 3... Arteta could also be back for this match. Go Blues Go... Beat the Goners. And it seems Andrew Johnson has a tendency of scoring against them... As Paris Hilton would say... Thats Hot!

gd idea.Originally posted by zocoss: or this one -
I'd say a potential second loss for Arsenal if they continue their mediocre performance like the one they had against Portsmouth
-
If its another FOUR FIVE ONE then i think we're gonna lose or draw.
pls you frenchie,use 4-4-2 for god's sake. the midfield's too packed that's why fabregas and hleb cant really play thier game if AW uses 4-5-1...he must really realise what he's doing is wrong.. -
I see a draw...Everton will draw inspiration from their win against Bolton and superb performance against Man utd.
-
i see a magical 3-1 win by Arsenal.
-
Come on Gooners! Although we flunked at Fratton Park, we must still have faith in the Gunners! i predict a 2-0 win, Gunners will be fired up and hopefully, they aim for a rugby score
-
tink so too... 4-5-1 too negative liao... playing 2 striker will take the pressure off the lone striker... hope wenger change his tactics... everton sure will play 10man def... u cant expect to play counterattack when theres no attack from them... nx match should b grab early goal n force the game open... so 4-4-2 will b perfect...Originally posted by felirox:If its another FOUR FIVE ONE then i think we're gonna lose or draw.

That is an insult to Everton... what do you mean sure play 10 men defend? With players like Arteta, Tim Cahill, Johnson and Yakubu you think they are going to sit back?Originally posted by BrUtUs:tink so too... 4-5-1 too negative liao... playing 2 striker will take the pressure off the lone striker... hope wenger change his tactics... everton sure will play 10man def... u cant expect to play counterattack when theres no attack from them... nx match should b grab early goal n force the game open... so 4-4-2 will b perfect...
Maybe they will should they take the lead... But if its a level game i don't see why would they hold back in their own stadium. Give them some credit lah... I think Andrew Johnson could even get a goal as he seem to like to score against gooners... -

everton make no difference either. they will play negative football after they lead. -
past seasons...everton parked their bus whenver they're on the lead or when they wanted a draw..they know if they play an attacking style football,they will be crushed by arsenal. Last time everton tried to play that and they were thumped by arsenal..7-0. So i guess everton will try to get a goal ASAP and defend..but i believe AW has LEARNT HIS LESSON ( hopefully) and play 442 so we can tear apart their defence.

Cahill: Watch Out Arsenal
EvertonÂ’s attacking-midfielder Tim Cahill believes the ToffeesÂ’ confidence is high after bouncing back from their defeat to Manchester United. They beat Bolton 2-0 at home on Boxing Day with Cahill himself adding to Phil NevilleÂ’s rare strike.
Everton have only lost one in 14 – to United – and Aussie Cahill is optimistic about their chances against Arsenal.
"I really believe we have a great chance of achieving something. It is all about how we apply ourselves," the Australian told the Daily Mail.
"We probably will not see a lot of the ball. But if we get a chance, we have got to try and take it.
"Arsenal will be coming here knowing they are facing a massive game.
"These are the matches the boys look forward to. We were buzzing at Manchester United and we will be buzzing again when we play one of the elite teams in the world."
Everton lie in 6th place in the Premiership table. They received a huge boost when Cahill recently returned from his injury hell and the Aussie knows this hectic period is crucial for all teams with top-six ambitions.
"We are flying and are just happy to be in this position," said the 28-year-old.
"I think consistency is the key to where we stand. There are a lot of players in good form.
"We are taking things a game at a time - but for the club, everything is going really well.
"This is the time of year when you can make or break your season. This is where you see how things will pan out.
"We need to try and get maximum points if we possibly can and push ourselves up the table." -
*Van Persie will NOT return against Everton*
Robin van Persie will NOT be fit to return against Everton on Saturday - and William Gallas is a doubt for the weekend trip to Merseyside.
The Dutch striker made his first start for two months against Steaua Bucharest on December 12 after a long-term knee injury and came on as a substitute against Chelsea four days later.
He was sidelined for the north London derby with what was described by Arsene Wenger as a "little muscular problem, but a very minor one". Van Persie was expected to feature at Everton but that is no longer the case. To make matters worse, Gallas suffered an injury against Portsmouth on Boxing Day.
"Van Persie will not play on Saturday," confirmed Wenger after the 0-0 draw at Fratton Park. "We don't know about Gallas yet. He got a kick on his foot late in the first half." -
