We are facing Tottenham in just a few hours, and on Arsenal.com today the club implore the fans to sing their hearts out tonight to be the 12th man for the club. I couldn't agree more. I'm going to miss the match today but I ask anyone who is going or able to see it at the pub to sing your heart out for Arsenal tonight as we take on the Tiny Totts at the Emirates. Too often the Emirates crowd is too quiet and we simple sit back and enjoy the game having to have our spirits lifted by the team playing well. It's time we lifted their spirits tonight because goodness knows we can use a 12th man right now in the season.
Of course if you had to pick one time during the season to face Sp*rs it would probably be right now. They have been dreadful and any Arsenal fan not living under a rock and coming out of hiding for the first time since the summer will know all about our rival's horrid start to the season. However with the shock move of Harry Rednapp moving to North London (which was a blessing in disguise as Tony Adams is now manager in Pompey) Tottenham may start to turn things around. But even if they do thank goodness Harry hasn't been there long. They may have beaten Bolton at the weekend but they still have a long way to go and it's better to face them before any sort of revival may or may not happen.
I think this is a match that we can win with ease tomorrow and we could will win by 3-0 or something similar. But shhhhhh, don't tell the players that because we all know what happens when the lads go into a match expecting to win. They play lazy, don't really try, and usually end up drawing or worse (remember Hull?). But somehow I don't think that will be the case tonight as I think the team will realise the importance of this match (if they don't before the game they'll realise it when they get out there because we'll all be singing, right?) and they will fight hard to get a result for the fans. I'm gutted I can't see this today as I have other commitments but I'll be watching MOTD afterwards and hoping for the best.
So please enjoy the game, sing your hearts out in support of our players, and hope for a demolition job tonight. Till next time,
