Arsenal v Villarreal May 6th 2000 PM GMT

Doc

Interesting, similar to what I had posted/wanted... They are poor defensivly from the sides and hopefully we are looking to exploit that with a 343

USArsenal

I think it's the team we needed to put out. But I am still not 'confident' in the least

USArsenal

Looks like Xhaka at the back with Partey/Ode/ESR in the middle and Auba/Saka/Pepe up front

Comparing with that Wenger squad just shows there is a comparative dearth in offensive talent in this squad.

There are levels between Cesc then and Van Persie over anyone we have now. The rest are give or take the same. ESR, Aubameyang, Saka, Partey versus Adebayor, Song, Nasri and Walcott. It's just that Arteta has a long way to go before he gets to the level of Wenger if he ever does, especially in getting teams to attack.

Rohit

I hope it's Saka at LB. I am glad Arteta has gone all in. Even Bellerin over Chambers is positive. Let's see how much freedom the players have.

USArsenal

We need to make sure we take the proverbial 'hand brake' off today

Rohit

I am really tensed now, can't wait for this to start. Can we please win!!

Just saw the team warm up. Think it's a 433.

Odegaard and ESR flanking Partey. Saka right, Pepe left.

Basically the lineup we all wanted to see when we are signing Odegaard

It does sound great, but you have to ask why it hasn't been tested out before. We've had weeks of useless league games now and still what we see in the most important match is experimental.

Coquelin starts in place of suspended Capoue. Forsyth injured and replaced by Gaspar.

Qwiss

We shoukd win this. Looking at the XIs we've way more quality.

Shady

Come on Arsenal, you owe us a win here.

Like what Sicario said, Arteta only tries things when its backs against walls. Like how he suddenly shove ESR in against Chelsea when it was desperate times.

And most of the time it pays off when he just goes for it.

Tierney starts!

Shady

Tierney in then. Please don't break down.

Qwiss

Xhaka out, Tierney in.

lorddulaarsenal

Xhaka injured in the warm up

goon

Tierney in for Granit who’s picked up a knock. Can’t say I’m too unhappy.

Sicario

COYG!!!

goon

We should have played Saka at right back so we could squeeze Martinelli in somehow too.
