Arsenal V Wigan *Premier League* Match Thread

I'm hoping 2-0 to Arsenal.
My gut tells me 1-1

Nuri Sahin

Walcott quadruple hat trick thus earning MOTM at a nice price of 15/2. Or Podolski winning it.

Kylo Ren

In before Ade's motm betting...

Crap.

it's hilarious watching those interviews. it shows you how the mentality of the football fan has changed over the years.

Wigan fans were asked if they would swap the FA Cup win for 6 points in these next 2 games.

we saw 5 answers.

the 3 people over 40 years of age would be fine getting relegated.

the 2 under 20 years old would give the cup back.

a bit sad if I'm honest.

They made history, what we can tell about those interviews is that the older generation find history important, the younger ones couldn't give a flying.....
And that is sad.

More like do or die......
Jeez Cazorla came close there.

Sugarlumps

arsenal constantly trying there luck down Wigans left, they luck very vulnerable in that area, McManaman should get some success down the wing.

HazDanz

Walcott has his crossing booths on thank fcuk

Wigan look wrecked.

and they can't defend.

Fuzzy_Dunlop

Would prefer not to sit on a 1-0 this time please

JPA

C'mon Arsenal, destroy them.

Podolski doesn't close down enough up front, it needs to be a team effort tonight.

Agree. They should be putting pressure on the Wigan defenders when they have the ball.
A la Jack Charlton.
