MATCH DAY BLOG: SHEFFIELD UNITED VS ARSENAL
Arsenal must beat Sheffield United this evening. No ifs, buts, or maybes.
I don’t care how the performance looks, the only thing that matters is exiting with 3 tasty points.
Liverpool lucked out again after some dreadful officiating at the weekend. Paul Tierney, after getting killed by Klopp in the media, was once again making up for it with game defining nonsense that allowed a 99th minute winner. Tragically, his punishment is to be put in the VAR booth for the Arsenal vs Brentford game. Who is making these decisions" That is a corruption of ethics and sporting integrity there. I hope Arsenal execs are forcefully banging the table on this one.
Back to Arsenal.
Mission 1. Win.
Mission 2. Escape without injuries.
This is a good game to get some action into the legs of Thomas Partey. We’ve not missed him. But his return will be vital to the run-in. He is capable of a 3 month stint. Then he’s out the door. Let’s say goodbye with a bang!
There hasn’t been a lot of movement in the first team – it’s a strong starting 11, it’s all about business.
But the bench is good. If we can score some early goals, then we should bring off the precious precious players and build the fitness of those that need it.
This game is massive, lose, and the title race is going to be very, very tough… we might even get drawn into a street fight for top 4 with Spurs and Villa.
Win, and it’s just another three points in the three-horse rac...
