Match Day Live - Arsenal v Pompey
Pompey's third game in eight days sees the boys visit The Emirates to face Arsenal. Kick-off is 3pm. Join us here on Vital Pompey to discuss the game as it unfolds
Arsenal to slaughter Pompey lambs, Wengers boys to rip Hart out of Pompey, Pompey to be put to the sword … Jeez I've read it all this morning.
I think don't think any of us really expect anything out of this afternoons encounter but if we stand any chance at all of grabbing a lucky point it'll be due to Arsenals over confidence - It worries me really as they are beginning to sound a little too much like their neighbours for my liking!
So claim down you Gooners, there's a lot of respect for you guys in Pompey so if you are gonna thump us, just so some respect!
Anyway without further ado
'Stand up.. If you hate the Spurs, Stand up .. If you hate the Spurs…'

Seem that way, but after his first half performance on Wednesday I'm not that surprized to be honest - Right a quick sandwich then game on !
Think you are right about AVB I'm sure he'll come good .. but just wish Hart would have a bit of faith in Nuge.. Still I'm not sure whichever XI we put out today it would make much difference !
I've thought about how we could get something outta this game but 'not turning up' was my only real option
