The Dugout Discussion – Man City vs Arsenal

2,297 Comments

The Gameweek begins with a bang. Matches don’t come any bigget than City vs Arsenal – a top of the table clash between the two major attacking forces in the Premier League to this point.

City put their 100% home record on the line against an Arsenal side that oozes class and creativity from midfield. With 29 goals amassed in front of their own fans, it’s hard to see the Gunners keeping Manuel Pellegrini’s side at bay and yet Arsenal’s rearguard arrives in Manchester having conceded more than one goal in a league match just once all season. Something has to give and Fantasy managers will be hoping that the likes of Sergio Aguero, Aaron Ramsey and Mesut Ozil are in the mix when the blows are exchanged.

Look out for the latest team sheet news via our Twitter feed, while our Duguout Discussion chatroom will accompany you throughout the match and into the three o’clock kick-offs to cater for your real-time needs.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Arsenal need Benzema. Giroud should be sold to championship club.

    Cazorla may be off form but surely he could have offered more than Gnabry or Bendtner as a sub?

            Hardly, he didn't do anything. Giroud was appalling but Bendtner adds nothing more.

    Shockingly bad performance from Wilshere,Giroud and Mesut

    Ozil couldn't clear the first defender with his Nani-esque deliveries

    Could have easily scored one or two more had it not been for Donkey and dumbass officials

    Just checked the table though

    Top of the league 😎
