Tomorrow's the Day for Arsenal

The sultry summer has finally reared its head here in the city I call home. After plenty of overcast skies, gloomy days, and rainy weather over the last two weeks, it's nice to see the sun out. As nice as the sun looks today, I would much rather see a vintage Arsenal performance at Anfield in the return leg of the Champions league quarters tomorrow.

Arsenal have undoubtedly played the better football. But don't we almost always play the better football without getting the goals? We go into the game with some confidence, however we will have to raise our game in the attacking third, a more direct approach will have to be the watch word.

Liverpool can go through with a 0-0. I do think, however that if they do plan on sitting back for the complete 90, it will be something close to suicide for the home side. As good as their defence has been in the last two encounters, I think they will see a little more than the kitchen sink thrown at them to get the result.

Wenger will have to resort to a 4-4-2, and hopefully will play Theo for a half, if not the full game. Why on earth is Eboue in the starting 11, really I'm miffed, as I know all of you are too. I don't think RVP will be fit to play and is more likely to return for the clash against Manure, and the same goes for Sagna as well.

While Big Phil could get the nod ahead of Toure to partner Gallas in the centre of defence, and Toure may find himself in the position that Sagna has made his own this season. Ade to partner Bendtner up front you think? I really don't know about that. We should get more team news tomorrow, so I will wait for that.

Catching up with a bit of yesterday's news, where Theo Walcott has said that he has spoken to Le Prof about his limited opportunities at the club.

“Sometimes, it’s been frustrating.There are times when I haven’t deserved to play because I wasn’t playing well enough but there have been times when I have been playing well and not been involved and that struck me a bit. So I actually went up to him for the first time and asked him what I had to do to start.I initiated the conversation and walked over to him on the training ground. It was a difficult thing to do. I was nervous. But I’m glad I did it.

And he was fine. In fact, I think he thought it was really big of me to go to a top manager when I was 18 and ask what I had to do to improve.

But now I want to push on. I want to be starting and starting regularly.”
