Milan look like they will underestimate us with their selection of players in the squad. Couple of big players rested.

I hope they field a weakened side and we beat the daylight out of them

How do you know that?

Eastmond will get a game, I think. He's the only one in the reserves who has experienced playing in the CL before.

Well, sadly there's a possibility that he might very well do. Depressing stuff.

Nela

That still doesn't help us to find someone who can play central midfield.

And if we're going to play Park, we may as well throw in Afobe or any other reserve striker.

How so?

Eastmond better not play.

Nela

Well nevermind about Yennaris

Nico Yennaris, Gavin Hoyte and Chuks Aneke all start for #AFC Reserves v #CFC Reserves. Hoyte and Aneke had been on loan.

Yennaris to get a start in midfield if Rosicky doesn't make it?

We have to go 4-4-2

Think it's a waste. We only have one good striker anyway and Milan's midfield would kill us if we did that.

Yennaris starting for the reserves so that rules him out.

Yaya

We need quick transition from deep, someone to collect the ball from defense and play a quick one touch forward pass as quick as possible as well as providing a bit of defensive support. Based on that criteria, I think Eastmond is the worst out of the other 2 options(Ozyakup and Yennaris)(might be stating the obvious there)

If we assume that Wenger is comfortable playing Chamberlain in the Ramsey position, we only have to come up with one more player. Genuinely stumped as to who that will be.

Play Djourou at CB and Vermaelen or Kos in midfield. 🙂
If Maureen is comfy playing Pepe there then Wenger shouldn´t feel to bad about it.

Captain

Is Djourou not still injured?

Rex

Nah, he is alright I reckon.

Mirth

Ozyakup has played around 10 minutes of football for the first team, why would he possibly be pencilled in for his first start against AC Milan? I'd prefer go with Yennaris but in truth there isn't much between him and Eastmond.

Nela

Which is worse Djourou-Song or Eastmond-Song?

Yaya

Who would you prefer in mf if all the other mf's are out(rosicky,arteta etc), and now that yennaris is likely out as well?

Mirth

At this point it won't make a difference who plays.

Mirth

Feel for le coq, if it wasn't for injuries he would have had the chanced to really establish himself in the first team.

YounGunner

Rosicky trained today so i doubt he's out.

Nela

Yeah, I'm begining to think Wenger is probably exaggerating the Rosicky injury. I think he'll be fit.

And from the pics on Arsenal.com Ozyakup is training with the CL squad.

TomasCR

When was the last time Rosicky wasn't doubtful for any game seriously? He had apparently that back problem, groin problem and now shin problem after that Spearings' tackle; the guy will find himself out injured soon. I think he'll play anyway, but has hardly practiced the last week or so, will suck.

Wenger:

...and you can tell Milan that tomorrow we will play on a football pitch, a real football pitch.”

Excuse monger.
