In calendar 2011, Stoke have played 23 Premiership games. Road sides have scored a total of 13 goals. Great day to change the trend, but I fear Arsenal 2-0 Stoke

On the subject of our best centre half partnership i think that Upson could operate behind Huth and Shawcross as an old fashioned sweeper. This would work as long as each player knew their roles - not 3 centr halves- and it is not necessarily a defensive formation , done properly it would give a bit more freedom to Ryan and Robert to go a bit further forward for the occassional tackle , as they do presently or even ( Tony do not read this) act as a free man and have an occasional burst from the back to sortie up front
will never happen of course

Would love to see us win this one but just can't see us getting anything out of the game. I think Whinger's boys will win 1-0 or 2-0, but would love us to go at them and win it with headers from Shawcross, Huth and KJ or Crouch all from Rory's long throws !

Begovic
Wilko Upson Shawcross Wilson
Pennant Delap Whelan Etherington
Walters Jones Bench: Sorensen, Shotton, Huth, Palacios, Whitehead, Crouch, Jerome In my opinion if we take Van Persie out of the game Arsenal are toothless up front. Jones should play because I fear every time Crouch goes up for a header the Arsenal pansies will go down every time

Same old away game tactics, but perhaps this is one of those occasions when we don't concede an early goal and lady luck smiles on us. 0-1.

Time to beak out of the away rut. We're going to see a much more positive approach because of the Pulis-Wenger feud. The team's confidence is growing by leaps and bounds. At least a point and we may nick it.

For this game i wouldnt mind seeing crouch and jones upfront together, knowing how week arsenal are. but i reckon pulis willl go for this: --------------Begovic wilko----woodgate (if fit) ----shawcross-------wilson pennant------whelan-----palacios-------delap ------------crouch------walters-------------
cant see him picking etherington, because he played on thursday and i think im right in saying hes still carrying a bit of an injury?

Begovic Wilko Shawcross Upson Wilson Shotton Whelan Delap Matty Crouch Walters Bench Sorro Palacios Jerome Jones Huth Higgy Whitehead Shotton out wide? No Pennant? Personally there's no way i'd try Shotton on the wing in the Premier League, and i'd assume TP thinks the same. Also, Pennant isn't injured is he? I can't see why he's not in your whole matchday squad? If he doesn't play then there's no way Shotton will be played out there.

Rigsby - it does indeed look like Pennant is injured with a hamstring. He faces a late fitness test and is touch and go.
So given we will need a lot of tracking back I would play Shotton given his pace and defensive duties over and above Delap on the wing as we look to no doubt contain for the first 20 mins or so. In effect if he is disciplined, Shotton gives us two right backs for their initial onslaught and then he and Wilko can overlap as we get in to the game
We need to stretch Aresnal down the wings if we are to get any joy with the big lads in the box. Shotton isnt perfect but a better choice than Rory - we need Delap as sweeper helping the back four out
