Well with the retired boxer out, perhaps we could see some real football from United.

With Fellaini as a target man, "real football" might be a bit much to hope for. I think they'll win though.

Not too confident about our attack...

Okay, genuine question to Gooners out there...
With Walcott and Giroud both clearly faltering and Welbeck out for 'months', what does Joel Campbell need to do to actually get a chance up top? I mean, he can't be much worse, right?

I never understood why he's not playing for Arsenal. The guy had a great WC and is really good for current club. Perhaps its more than just Wenger still hoping Benzema might call him in January?

I imagine Joel Campbell needs to perform well in some cup games this season and then he'll get a chance. He's never done much in the first team previously so it's fair enough that Wenger doesn't see him as an alternative yet. Like I say, he'll get his chance in the League Cup I imagine.
I'm not worried about Walcott and Giroud though, they'll both come good. Making quality chances is harder than putting them away and if we're getting the first part right, the second won't be far behind.

League Cup is Spurs though, and Wenger's loaned out youth this season rather than keep them around for cup competitions. He might get rotated in, but Wenger takes the derby fairly seriously.

Good start. Need more balls on Fella's head.

That's a fair point, I forgot we were playing Spurs! I still reckon Campbell will get a game though. It'll be stronger than his traditional League Cup team but Spurs will be resting players too and they have less strength in depth than Arsenal do I think, which will give Wenger a little leeway.

Clyne and Skrtel on Fellaini haha. We have to take advantage of that.

Fellaini's chest control is incredible. If only he could control with his feet just as well.

Ronaldo took a fair while to become Ronaldo.
In fact, I remember him being nutmegged by Scott Hiley of Exeter City in the FA Cup.
Ronaldo was shit in the beginning...but he was still better than Depay right now.
He didn't just mindless shoot like fucking idiot as much.
Pretty much this. His first season as well. Give the kid a break.

De Gea must be happy to have such an easy game to come back to. Think he's only touched the ball twice.
Can't blame him, he's no striker.
Yea the blame should go to Van Gaal. Wtf is he thinking.

Schweinsteiger putting some of his teammates to shame. Why aren't our attackers pressing as hard as he is?
