Man City Preview

Well, we're nearing kick-off, the nerves are building up, the butterflies are bouncing around your stomach, it must mean this is an important match.

With United winning last night against a useless Stoke side, it seems to me as though this really is a must not lose game for both sides, especcially us. With United now having played the same amount of games as us, and we're five points behind them, by winning, we just re-place that pressure back onto them. If god forbid, we were to lose, then the we must start looking over our shoulders towards Chelsea and Sp*rs, as they seem to be quietly going about their business and winning games (minus Chelski). This is a must win game, no doubt about it.

Looking at the sides i think will start, it looks as though there is a complete contrast between the two sides. One majorly effective on the counter, with big physical players, and then the other, perhaps a bit weak at times, but with the ability to move the ball as fast as Usain Bolt around them. Last season it was the same. Man City turned up at the Emirates, hoping not to get beat. They played dull, boring football, which resulted in a 0-0 draw. Yawn.... This game has no chance of being the same. Both sides need a win, and cant lose, but a draw isnt great either.

Now, not just from a biased point of view, which i'll obviously give, but I feel The Arsenal will win this one. I think our confidence will start to ooze out of us, and once Walcott starts to rip shreds out of their defence, i expect Van Persie to lay it off for Nasri,who then almost does a ballot turn, to lay it off to Cesc, who will then score a delightful effort into the bottom corner (this was my dream last night).

Anyway, making our way to the game later on, few drinks in pub beforehand along with a meal in a delightful Italian, before making our way over to the game.

C'mon Arsenal!!!
