I couldn't help but notice Arsenal's bench contains:-

Ozil
Ramsey
Walcott. :ohmy:

What's the worst that could happen in 2 weeks time, as injury prone Arsenal start to get players back to full fitness.

Arsenal now 2-0 up

It's ok after Stoke they will only have their youth team left.

One full back stretchered off, now another one injured so far.
I just wish Stoke could be a be a bit more physical to help us out.

If they 'click' they are probably the worse team to face, if they have all there attacking options our defence could have a torrid time but who knows!

"Imagine a player with more Premier League assists than Cristiano Ronaldo or Paul Scholes, with more Premier League goals than Fernando Torres or Dennis Bergkamp.

Imagine if he had more goals for England than Kevin Keegan, Steven Gerrard or David Beckham, with a goals-per-minute ratio significantly superior to Michael Owen and Gary Lineker and twice as good as Alan Shearer."

Who is it?

Calderon v Sanchez *shudder* Bennett v Oxlade-Chamberlain *shudder* :eek:

Let's just hope they don't take the wee-wee out of us!

The FA Cup has a well known history for turning form and team ability on its head. That's what we love about it and it's also the reason why the top teams dislike it so much...how also can you explain results where a lower league team puts out a premier league team.

The purist in me hopes Alexis plays against us as he will be, arguably, the best player we may ever see grace our stadium.

The Brighton fan, however, hopes Arsene lets him have a little rest that day.

The guy is world class.

I think this is quite likely. They probably scouted us at our London fixtures and are quaking in their boots. Arsenal are DESTROYING Stoke in footballing terms, Stoke are destroying Arsenal in terms of the robust tackles.

Absolutely this.

As a Barca fan it would be brilliant to get to see him play....first and foremost though as a Brighton fan I'd really rather he didn't.

As far as today goes, he's racking up the points for my fantasy team, so it's all good. :thumbsup:

Suarez for me, he's a **** but an exceptional footballer.

Arsene will " rest " some of the big names I am sure, but whatever team he outs out it will be one hell of a challenge. Sanchez/Walcott /Chamberlain/Ramsey/Ozil/Cazorla will rip us apart.
