I don't think there's any chance of Arteta throwing Calafiori in straight away. Especially in a position he demands so much of.
I'd bet money it'll be Timber starting at LB
I think purely based on fitness/readiness concerns, Zinchenko would start with Timber or Calafiori subbing on later in the game.
3-0 Arsenal. We are going to skin em like antelope.
2 more ITK will die today. They started shit last night with cryptic messages that "I have a feeling we want a striker" implying we have a big injury up top. Arteta said yesterday at the press conference

Which ITK’s? Name and shame!

You just never know. Turns out we are without Jesus today, and going by history God knows how long.
Delicious revenge please. Fuck Emery.
Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert You are back!!
Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert Welcome back. If we'd known you were stuck the cry would've been "Bring back Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert" 🙂
Clrnc In the end they really did bring back Kerrea Gilbert.
Sicario2 - Tier 1
Imagine if we don't win again...
Clrnc doesn't even include all the times he managed to mastermind an Arsenal defeat as Arsenal manager.
He becomes our bogeyman if we don't win today. We don't want to have one of those teams /managers again.
Apparently Jesus hasn’t travelled due to a knock.
We can’t rely on this guy - need a striker asap
Sicario2 - Tier 1 People talk about Partey being unreliable, having lost a yard, etc but Jesus is in the exact same boat.

Yeah. I love Jesus but the contrast between his fitness/sharpness now compared to his first 6 months here is stark, even when he is fit.
At least we're not missing a first XI player anymore when he's out.
Yeah Jesus out of today's game with a groin injury according to teamnewsandtix. Annoying as he would have been a great option off the bench against these thugs. We better use our chances nice and early then unlike our H2H against them last year.
goon the issue with both of them is they never stay fit long enough to get to full sharpness. If Partey was fit 90% of the rest of the season I'm sure we'd see far less mistakes than last week. If Jesus could stay fit you'd see his brilliant dribbling and hold up play return (even if he still wasn't scoring much).
If he can't prove to stay fit this season despite being a sub, then we should look to sell him in the summer.

Sell him this summer and bring in a striker as a matter of urgency. Striker goes above winger now.
Sicario2 - Tier 1 I think they'd have sold him if they could. Doubt there was any real interest, his wages are a huge problem with any potential transfer.
