⚽ Arsenal vs Bournemouth, League, Saturday 4th Mar 3pm

I am Arsenal Till I Die

Tomi in for White.
Vieira for Xhaka.
Partey for Jorginho.

Very attacking line up. Want us to score five.

KingslandBarge

I am Arsenal Till I Die Definitely - strive to assume control and a cushion, ring in changes.

QuincyAbeyie

That's a very exciting lineup. Hope it works.

Claudius

I’ve been saying Vieria will start soon for Xhaka. Arteta is extremely predictable.

But also makes sense given how games are piling up for us to do these light rotations with the boys.

VIEIRAAAAAAA

Perfect time to give him a go in there. Hope it’s not one of those super creative lineups that ends up dissapointing - because while I expect to see Xhaka play most of the remaining games this season I’d like to see more Vieira.

Good team. Hope Eddie is back soon. Bench looks light of attacking impactful options without him.

Qwiss

Good line up. Great opportunity for Vieira.

Clrnc

Superb team. Let's go

banduan

I had a nice chuckle at the meteoroid strike.

Nice match to give Viera a chance.

KingslandBarge

banduan there was a sonic boom experienced in the midlands just earlier this morning! still alive and kicking so win will have to do

Interesting. Tomyiasu in to provide more cover defensively with Vieira playing and not Xhaka?

goon

HomeSteak I don't think so. Wrong side of the pitch and White isn't exactly poor defensively or more attacking by nature. I think it's just an easy area to rotate for some fresh legs given we played on Wednesday.

KingslandBarge

Personally expecting creativity and attacking support from him. Running advanced of Saka (inside and outside), other times ground passes into space.

Let's see how this works. Vieira has his chance to impress

I am Arsenal Till I Die

Eddie is not even in the squad.

Hope he's not out for long. We need him.

They're watching White's fatigue and that's most of it, surely. Can't argue with one or two experiments in this match. In some ways against this mediocrity it's better to fool around a little bit with the selection than put the gold-plated but tired first choice XI under pressure.

Big Willie

Managed to get in guys. Forgot how small the pitch looks when you're there. On the TV it looks so huge.

KingslandBarge

It at home, fresh legs etc. but by all accounts Viera is knocking on the door and personally don't consider White gold-plated! I guessed Zinchenko for rotation given he's made 7 consecutive starts almost right after returning to full training, and could do with another leader out there on Wednesday. Fully expect Xhaka to start and captain that outfit.

Even if Viera is knocking on the door, only minimal expectation I have of him today is to offer some ounce of team continuity on the road to a win. Will be grateful to him for that alone.

Burnwinter

KingslandBarge Well I'm not sure if "gold-plated" is the right term, "incumbent" might be better. Either way, I mean the guys who have been winning lots of matches and therefore know they're expected to win more of them.

Burnwinter

Man, this team is dripping with ability. We won't have a player on the pitch without a pretty spectacular ceiling.

No Xhaka—yes I know, I know, he's a very good boy now—can't be all bad.
