Fulham (A)

So 4th place again it would seem. Another disastrous game and another disastrous result, admittedly we had a perfectly good goal ruled out but still at the back we were equally as awful as the week before. The first finish was one of quality from Bent but he should have had all the room he had to slot the second away. Hopefully this will open Wenger's eyes to the fact that we do have serious defensive issues, I see that we have again been linked with Chris Samba in the morning papers and personally I would welcome that signing.



Anyway, apologies for the lateness of this post its been a busy weekend. Fulham away is never a fixture that we should see as an easy one. On their day they'll give anyone a run for their money, if they have an off day then anyone can turn them over. After fucking up in recent weeks, we have it all to do and to pray that Bolton pull off a win over Man City to avoid the tedious Champions League qualifications and to be honest I can't see us doing it. Either way a win on the last game would be a nice way to round off another disappointing season.

Nasri faced a late fitness test of which the results I dont know so he may play he may not, Cesc Fabregas however is definitely out with a thigh issues. Gael Clichy is also a doubt with a hamstring problem so Keiran Gibbs may start at left back. Otherwise the same squad that played Villa would be my bet. A solid performance today may go someway to helping restore the fans faith.



As for Fulham the usual threats from Johnson, Dempsey, Gudjohnsen etc. However Arsenal fans don't see it as all bad, we may see a familiar face in Senderos playing in defence for them which may be our main outlet of attack. The Swiss pile of shit was never a fan favourite due to his many blunders over the seasons so it may provide some amusement this afternoon. Hopefully Van P will get on the score sheet to equal the record for most goals scored since scoring 0 since January or something to that effect.

So that sad time is upon us once again, the close of the Premier League season. Another season, the trophy cabinet remains empty. Changes need to be made Mr. Wenger, listen to the fans for once. On a much better note congratulations to the Arsenal Ladies team on winning the FA Cup 2-0 against Bristol Academy, at least they can win something. Check back for updates on news and everything Arsenal, enjoy the last day and come on Blackpool!



Prediction: Fulham 1-1 Arsenal
