Austin Powers is a Gooner!!


Morning all!

I hope everyone is starting to feel the benefits to having a 4 day week (due to the UK bank holiday). We also had the clocks going forwards which means lighter for longer in the evening. All we need now is the seemingly never ending, bitterly cold wind to go away and we can party in the streets like it’s the swinging sixties. "Yeah baby!!"

We swept Reading aside with great efficiency last weekend and I hope we can have the same impact on the match on Saturday at West Brom.

I see the match at the Hawthornes as another tricky fixture. If we keep our recent good form and focus then we will have more than enough to beat them comfortably. We can't underestimate them as they have taken quite a few points off us in recent years.

When we met them earlier in the year they were in quite good form and we were the complete opposite. We had drawn against Villa and Everton and then there was the 0-2 loss away at Swansea, these were not happy days. We went on to beat West Brob 2-0 but it wasn't the most convincing win we will see. It took an Arteta penalty to break the deadlock; he also rounded the match off with another goal late on.

I am fairly sure we will have enough to get the result we need. I am not sure who will make the team sheet but I wouldn't change things too much. I'm sure we will hear later if there has been any injury news and we will bring it to you tomorrow.

It looks like most players are coming back fitness and finding some decent form so let’s hope that stays with us till the end of the season. I guess in some ways, not being in 4 competitions makes it easier to keep everyone fit and sharp but that is all down to squad depth and im not going to drag over them old coals now.

I’m feeling confident about the weekend and I believe Arsenal members can go to the stadium to watch the match on big screens. I have been before, it’s a little odd but quite good fun.

Hope you have a good day
