'Rough and aggressive' Stoke ready oust Arsenal, says striker Fuller
Rough and aggressive: Ricardo Fuller is ready to shoot down Arsenal[LNB]Ricardo Fuller has warned Arsenal to expect a 'rough and aggressive' Stoke City because the Gunners cannot deal with that style.[LNB]Arsenal slumped to a disappointing 2-1 defeat at the Britannia Stadium in last season's league meeting and striker Fuller, who scored in that game, is hoping for a repeat in the FA Cup on Sunday.[LNB]Arsenal, though, are a very different animal nowadays, hitting renowned rough-and-ready outfit Bolton for six over two games earlier this week. [LNB]They have also dispatched the Potters twice since that Rory Delap-inspired upset in Stoke a year ago.[LNB]But Fuller remains bullish. He said: 'It couldn't be a better draw because we did well against them at home last year. [LNB]'The Britannia is like a fortress and if we play to our strengths I don't think Arsenal can deal with the aggressive play.[LNB]'It's been proved in the past that Chelsea and Bolton have roughed them up and tried to bully them. [LNB]'We can also be rough and aggressive when we need to, but we have quality too, so we can mix it up.'
