Morning all Ed's and fellow gunners. hope alls well. was thinking about tomorrow's match v West Ham. if we are going to go with Leo up front and Ethan on the right. what would people think of tierney at left wing.? . he loves to bomb forward, plays decent balls into dangerous areas, stays on his feet and can also help out defensively, always puts a shift in. and who knows. It might even take West Ham by surprise as they have probably been training with a view to dealing with sterling. don't get me wrong I like sterling. seems like a decent chap. But let's be honest he's on the deck more than he is on his feet and confidence wise (shot to pieces) . I went for KT on the basis of West Ham will have chances and he can get back and help out more than sterling, as well as what I mentioned above. or would you drop sterling move Leo left side and merino up front. whatever happens 3 points tomorrow is an absolute must. COYG/ VTH ?? NORTH LONDON FOREVER ?? ?⚪️ ONE TEAM THE ARSENAL/ ONE ❤️.

Trossard, Merino, Nwanieri for me, i thought Merino thoroughly earned another opportunity.
{Ed014's Note - first Zubimendi and now Nwaneri!
I’m not the one to blame SW ??

I'd like to see Tierney involved more Gabi, he definitely has the speed but playing more forward would this leave us vulnerable at the back? We seem to get caught on the break quite often.
I'd stick with Merino up front for this game to see if it was just a fluke lol.

I think we’ll start Stirling Trousard and Nawanieri! It worked v Leicester bringing on Merano v a tiring defense. Not saying it’s right but it has worked! Good draw v PSV but nasty one v Madrids. Hadn’t heard from you much recently 14! I thought Jonny Short pants had you arrested by the FBI or the International Cricket Council! Heady days - I miss that banter COYG.
{Ed014's Note - I miss those days to mate!

Hi Sal, hope all’s good. I meant play KT as an out and out winger (instead of sterling) . with MLS or Ricky at left back KT could also drop back to help out defensively. ?.

Sussex - you could be onto something there. Merino running at tired legs is better as he’s no striker. Hopefully there’s a player somewhere in Sterling that is released at some point.

Me I’d play as an option 442 with Trouss and Nwanieri ( #iknowyouknow? ) plus Rice Ode Partey Merino taking turns to arrive late a la Lampard. They can all finish too. Is there no one in the under 21’s? Edwards? #stillinthis.
{Ed014's Note - ??
I didn’t realise that our two academy strikers, Nathan Butler-Oyedeji and Khayon Edwards are 22 and 21 respectively, so a little surprised that we’ve heard so little about them.
I think Edwards has not long been back from injury too.
He seems like the more promising of the two but Butler-Oyedeji has been the one on the bench lately, although obvs not used.

KT as a winger sounds interesting Gabi :)

Been set up again, have i?
Welcome home, 14, i'm going to swap to initials and spare myself the embarrassment (;
{Ed014's Note - I definitely never did a thing, it was all your own work SW.
Nothing to be embarrassed about, I only mentioned it as you’d blamed me ?

It’s a times like this you’d miss Voddys input.

I know, 14, I'd a suspicion a bit of slander might be just the thing to entice you to post (;
Hope you're well, come cheer malaga up on the livechat sometime!
{Ed014's Note - ? I’m good thanks mate, all good with you?
