Can The Arsenal Deliver

Sol Campbell is out injured ahead of the Champions League clash with the 'bubbles' of Panathinaikos and is joined on the side lines by Edu. José Antonio Reyes who's been in the wars recently having suffered an injured hand against The Saints at the weekend and having seven shades of a la shita kicked out of him by the Neville's Grim at the Battle of Old Shiteford Part 'Whatever'. The only other injury worry is Gilberto Silva who it's been said could be out from anything from 6 weeks to 3 months with his cracked vertebrae. ouch!

The exclusion of Edu will probably see our Wonderkid Fabregas start in midfield alongside Le Boss Midfield General Paddy Vieira.

The question is, can The Arsenal deliver? We haven't started this Champions League campaign on fire and with two home games on the bounce this is where we need to pick up all the points. So lets hope the boys can pick them selves up and do the business when it needs to be done.

Saint Wenger tells Ol' 60% Proof Nose to 'Leave it'

With Ol' 60% Proof Nose still upset after having one of his players, Ruud van Cheatingcuunt banned for two games, being drenched in French Onion soup and some stale Manc ham & garlic pizza and citing any Arsenal players, present and past for gamesmanship, stamping offences, murder and crimes against humanity - Saint Wenger has called for a truce and has told the mad old jock 'leave it'. Full story here.

More on Ol' 60% Proof Nose

The barking mad old jock - Ol' 60% Proof Nose claims that Saint Wenger was the 'man on the grassy knoll' in the 1963 assassination of US President JFK and has video evidence to support this, he also claims that he has evidence linking Saint Wenger to the gun powder plot. Our reporters spoke with Ol' 60% Proof Nose - but we couldn't understand a damn word that miserable, incomprehensible, sour, desperate, purple faced one said - so we told him to 'do one'

The big game - my verdict

This will prove to be hard game against a very physical side, who after our display in Greece wont be too afraid of us. They are a physical team but can play - with what in my opinion is their dangerman Olisadabe or something like that. Until he came on against The Arsenal we looked comfortable, but his presence and no nonsense style and speed seemed to unsettle the defence. Anyway we all know if the boys play to their strengths and abilities we'll win. However for some reason I think we'll draw and leave it late to qualify to the next round.. don't ask me why, I just believe sometimes we like doing things the hard way.
