Arsenal vs Villa, Sunday @ 4.30pm (🤞for a 'good ebening')

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

This is when you regret selling Holding.

Qwiss

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert he's injured anyway 😆

goon

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Kiwior is far, far, far better than Holding.

Segway

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert You're joking, right? 😆

goon

Mirth

Funny, I felt that way after going top last week but I’m suddenly supremely confident.

Having to take on Bayern in a CL 1/4 final has made this feel like it should be routine.

Mirth

goon maybe. I don't like the league games in between major CL fixtures.

I still remember beatening Madrid at the Bernabeu only to lose to Blackburn on the weekend.

Big Willie

Segway You're joking, right?

How else can we initiate Holding protocol?

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Segway fucking obviously 🤣

Tactics

I'd play this back 4 if Gabriel is injured:

Zinchenko--Tomi---Saliba--White

I trust Tomiyasu defensively more than any of our defenders.

Segway

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert Nice one 🤣

Lukazan

Mirth Ha, I'd forgotten that but now remember it clearly.

"Good" times. 🤣

Clrnc

Assuming Gabriel is available I will start this team

Raya
White Saliba Gabriel Tomi
Rice Partey
Saka Odegaard ESR
Jesus

Qwiss

Clrnc I think on the Jesus and Havertz thing I'd play Havertz here then play Jesus for Bayern.

Clrnc

HomeSteak If Liverpool, West Ham and us lose our respective european ties, 5th place (extra UCL spot) will not go to England. Villa will need 4th place

Clrnc

Qwiss I was thinking we should play Tomi, Jesus and Partey into sharpness

Qwiss

Clrnc I get the idea alright but I'm not sure we can do it all at once without it being a big risk. I'd rather keep easing Jesus especially in off the bench in the PL and use him as a starter in the CL. Especially given reports about his ongoing injury.

Want to reward Trossard who is quietly been our one of best forwards this year. Without Douglas Luiz, ESR worth a shot. Bring everyone else off the bench.
Also want to test more technical pieces ahead of Bayern. They really helped stabilise us 2ns half.

3 changes from the Bayern team - White, Rice and Saka. Feels like our right side will be key against Bayern without Davies and both White and Saka seemed out of breath by the end of the game. Even though Rice is a fitness monster it feels like the amount of minutes he played has caught up with him and he looked off the pace both against Brighton and Bayern. Martinelli and Trossard can switch flanks throughout the game.
We have 2 days rest on Villa who will be without Luiz and likely rotate a couple more players. After Bayern we have Wolves A and Chelsea H with 2 days rest before each match. If any player is in the redzone fitness wise, this is the game for a breather.

Claudius

The variety in lineups is interesting. And it’s not just the different players. It’s how they’re used.

One note - nobody’s talking about guys like Nelson and Nketiah etc. because we have clearly better players available. And yet we can’t land on single team.

goon

Claudius

Great to have options.

Clrnc

Just realised Douglas Luiz, Cash and Lenglet not available. And they played on thurs night. Definitely a strong advantage for us.
