Blackpool vs Arsenal Last Minute Preview

Team Line ups:

Blackpool: 4-3-3
Manager: Ian Holloway


Arsenal: 4-2-3-1
Manager: Arsene Wenger

Well, I've started my post late again, and so this is a half time analysis cum preview. Arsenal have taken the lead by 2 goals but you could wonder if we'll have to pay for the chances we missed.


After a string of three disappointing draws, Arsenal have fallen 10 points behind league leaders Man United. It's make or break time now and we better pick ourselves up now and go on a strong form till the end of the season.

The biggest surprise in terms of team news is that Jens Lehmann is starting today in place of Manuel Almunia. Theo Walcott, Alex Song and Bakary Sagna have also missed out and Diaby and Eboue are in the starting line up.

Blackpool came out all guns flying and we were finding it hard to keep the ball. Yet we have conjured up a few good goalscoring chances and we've done well to take two of them. It was a really fast paced first half and we have struggled to find our passing rhythm. We would do well not to take the foot off the gas and take our chances clinically.


Well, here comes the second half and I;m off.
