Interesting lline up. Cahill must have a knock. Many have thought that Knight always plays better when Cahill is not on the pitch. Now is his chance to prove himeself. Holden and Gardner are being rested to not rush their return from injury after a midweek game. Expect them both to be at the very least on the bench next week. Arsenal will be totally confused with K. Davies not out there. Looking forward to a draw.

I'm guessing Pratley is going to sit behind Ngog and work between the lines!

Cahill is ill. So frustrating, because he has picked the right formation, dropped Kev, but we'll be undone because we have two centre halves with the turning circle of oil tankers and the mobility of Brian Potter. Even so, at the Reebok I'd fancy us, but that pitch is massive and they'll get in and around Knight and Wheater. Robin van aquaplane hat-trick.

According to Yahoo

Neither of these teams expected to be in the bottom four of the table after five games, but here they are. Arsenal have four points following their calamitous 4-3 defeat at Blackburn last weekend, while Bolton finally claimed their first points of the season with a 2-0 win at Aston Villa last time out. Premier League table

We beat Villa in the league?

Must be written by a bunch of americans adam :)

Shame robbo playing today and not tricky but i guess he is not fit.
We will still get attacked down the right and robbo will bottle it again.

Glad we have gone 451 but still think we will be beat by 2 goals today

He better put in a captain's performance if he's been given that armband!

Good to be back! Been without internet for several weeks and missed too many games to count. Hopefully I'm just in time to watch Arsenal fall even further into misery and despair!

Oh arse clattenberg is the ref what will he do know he cant give decisions against KD all game long ?
I bet he is crying into his beer.

We seem to be having a run of crap refs with webb and andre marriner being nice people.
The last decent one we had was against city and I cant remember his name
