Absolutely. Doddle of a game. Le Arse are going backwards faster than an Italian tank filled with Tottenham fans. Martin OderEater will be as rusty as the Tin Man in the Wizard of Oz, and their best player and at @Gol15 star man Declan Bomba Rice is an injury doubt. 

They have no wheels. This has a 4 or 5 nil win written all over it for us. Maresca's first win over a top team done and dusted.

It's about time we get a result against them. Just like the United team, don't think Arsenal carries that much aura right now, we play to the best of our ability we can beat them. We just need to cut out the madness from the back ( noticeably the GK), and find ways to neutralize their biggest threat in Saka ( and Oddegard if he plays). Last thing I want see is Havertz celebrate in front of us ( as much as I don't hate the guy )

Its got to happen at some stage... 

 
Maresca needs a win against a big team. However I fear our defence isn’t good enough to get away with it against these bigger teams. They will punish you. You can see we’re almost there but he needs to sort out the defence. 
 

Also, there’s not enough goals in the team bar Palmer and Jackson. Not enough goals from defence, midfield or attack. 
 

0-2 unfortunately. 

 
I am just worried about their set pieces and deliveries into the box, which is going to be there go-to tactic at every opportunity and they have a really big team.

Agreed, I think 0-2 sounds about right.

Would be 4 points from the run of Pool, Newcastle, United and Arsenal. A rather poor return for a side chasing top 4.

We have to stop Bomba, Gol! My God imagine if he led Arsenal to an EPL title and Jorginho got a winner's medal by default when he has hardly kicked a ball it would be a complete travesty!! WE HAVE TO BEAT THEM.

Arsenal was the second best team prior to Rice and Jorginho joining them, now they are just a standard top 4 team, they got worse.

Realistically speaking Reece alone should shut down anyone from Saka, Martinelli, Trossard and so on... Arsenal is overrated.

 
This is a must win game.

Arsenal are in the dregs and we need to take advantage. With our lovely run of games during the winter period and Liverpool having to face Real Madrid, City, United, Spurs and Newcastle (plus 6 other games) in the space of 5 weeks.

We’re 10 points behind at the moment, could be 7 behind if we beat Arsenal. With Liverpool’s really tough winter period we could well be up there with them after Christmas and we’ll still be fresh with our 5 squads.

This is a really big opportunity to start mounting a title challenge. I don’t expect it to last but it would be fun if we did.

 
Boost to Arsenal with City messing up again.

Liverpool look ominously good though.

 
Arsenal 2 seasons ago -27 points from 10 games

last season 24 points from 10 games

this season 18 points from 10 games

they are NOT as good, go out there and play to win, not play not to lose

 
This is not a must win for us. All that's important is that we do not lose and put in a positive performance in doing so.  Arsenal are not doing so well but their biggest strengths are a problem for our major weaknesses. They need this win more than we do, despite us being the home team. A draw would be perfectly fine given that we claw back the points as opposed to throwing a win away like last season.

 
It’s about time we beat these lot.

team I would pick 

Sanchez (sadly)

James fofana colwill cucurella 

Lavia Caicedo 

plamer 

madueke Neto 

Jackson 

if palmer is not fit then play either Felix or nkunku
