OFFICIAL 2018 LEAGUE CUP FINAL: ARSENAL v MANCHESTER CITY - MATCH THREAD 1

The first major trophy of the season will be contested today, and for both sides the Carabao Cup final comes off two horrendous losses in the other cup competitions. The Gunners lost at home (but still progressed) to Swedish meme team Ostersunds FK in the Europa League Round of 32 2nd leg on Thursday, while the CItyzens were defeated for the third time in a row in the FA Cup by League 1 Wigan Athletic on Monday.

Whoever wins, it'll be history making: Arsene Wenger has never won the three-handled floodlight tournament pot, while Pep Guardiola could win his first major English honour and join other such illustrious single time trophy winners as Roberto Martinez, Michael Laudrup and Harry Redknapp.

Kick-off at 4:30pm GMT with coverage on Sky Sports Football now.

Arselel: Ospina, Bellerin, Mustafi, Koscielny, Chambers, Monreal, Xhaka, Wilshere, Ramsey, Ozil, Aubameyang.
>Subs: Cech, Kolasinac, Mertesacker, Elneny, Maitland-Niles, Iwobi, Welbeck.

Al-Shittihad: Bravo, Walker, Kompany, Otamendi, Danilo, Fernandinho, D. Silva, Gundogan, De Bruyne, Sane, Aguero.
>Subs: Stones, Laporte, B. Silva, Zinchenko, Foden, Jesus.

>"He can run without the ball, he's got legs"

YA GUNNERS YA!

Arsenal had better fucking win.
After the game Thursday I'm less than optimistic.
Got my "Arsenal disappointment beers" ready in the fridge... I've learnt over the years that I need at least 8 beers ready after a game where Arsenal have done an Arsenal and completely fucked everything up... and I always need to be prepared because there's always a chance they'll fuck it up.

>I GONNA PAUZE IT THERE

Arsenal gonna win 2-1, city to take the lead early through aguero before ramsey and aubameyang score in the 2nd half.

Screencap this

WIGAN

What's the difference between an egg and a wank?

You can beat an egg, but you can't beat a wank

No, >we're gonna get annihilated by City

The "EFL™" basically piss themselves at the thought of teams like Arsenal and United being in one of their competitions.

Shame they don't care as much about their day job of running The Football League properly or the clubs involved. Instead it's wank ideas like B teams and rebranding.

City 5-0

Tye has been pushed to the limits

Mad man, how will Man U recover?

Pretty cute daughter.

I only wanna arsenal wins this for the memes

good writing lad keep it up

>mouyes decides to sign will grigg just to fuck with pep
