Wenger's said he'll gamble on Cescs fitness aslong as there's a less than 50% chance he could make it worse, i'd expect him to play even if it's only the first half

EDIT - He's out Owell i'm still confident we'll make it through, especially since Porto have never won in England

Arsenal will more than likely win it but the thing about that record is....Porto don't need to win to go through. I think if Porto can score one they'll go through. If they just sit back and park the bus then Arsenal will break them down.

Based on our home form i'd fancy us to outscore Porto, my main worry though is that with us already missing RVP, to now lose Cesc puts more pressure on Diaby/Arsharvin who're both just coming back from injuries, it really wouldn't surprise me if we had one of these days where nothing clicks and we bottle it lol

More like you need to replace him. And buy another couple of strikers really. It's an area where you are seriously lacking.

[Lunatic]

I am confident we will go through.

Well, It's not like Wenger is gonna open the brown paper bag to get some real scorers anytime soon.
Damn, I miss Henry

the thing ill give Bendtner credit on, is his positioning... if you notice he's the one real arsenal player who always gets himself into great scoring positions, where it be from a good team move or a goal keeper pary... its just horrible how bad is final effort in front of goal can be..
i wouldnt be suprised if he was at a side like westham, where not soo much pressure was put on him.. he'd do alot better.

10 minutes 'til game time! LETS GO PORTO 

[Lil White Azz]

[Lunatic]

Terrible, just awful play from us.

[Invincible]

Jesus fucking christ. Not even he could help Porto now.

I am confident we will go through.

 

[K.Dub]

Woo, pure ownage!

[Invincible]

Haha, and Bendtner scores a hat trick. Thats a seriously bad day at the office for Porto.

[MediumL]
