Boom.

est I agree, but the discussion seemed to be about who's left out if we wanted to play a midfield with both Øde and Eze.

FEBravo

est This. Pretty much a no brainer with everyone fit. Cala can provide the width on the left, and let Eze come in

Qwiss

est this. No need to do some sort of crazy Pep big brain move here. Just play the best XI, get a win, hope Liverpool drop points and go into the break top of the table.

Yep that will be the team arguably our strongest 11 and they haven't started a game together yet this season.

I would be a little tempted to start Marti instead of Zubi but I think Arteta will save that for if we need a goal in the 2nd half.

Losing this game 2 years ina row has been horrid and I expect them to put that right tomorrow.

Come on Arsenal! ❤️🤍

Odegaard looks like he trusts his ankle again and is ready to shoot when given an opportunity. Having another technician around him like Eze should only help facilitate some chances.

I can definitely see a few great chances created from Gyokeres pushing CBs back, Eze coming central, and Odegaard coming narrow for a layoff or one/two.

Sexy footy about to be back on the menu.

Apparently we’ve lost 4 home games in the last 72 and half of them have been against West Ham

Need to put this right tomorrow

Klaus

Will the game still be played today or is the wind too strong with this storm that is coming? Granted I live in the baltic sea, but over here it's absolutely nuts today, there's no way you'd be able to kick a ball around.

Mirth

It's not too bad in London but I heard it was quite bad up North yesterday.

Sicario2

I called it, no Zubi v low blocks

Qwiss

He's only gone and done the Ode and Eze midfield 🤯

Panda

Qwiss Go on Arteta!! That's what we like to see. Handbrake well and truly off.

OK, well it seems we're going guns blazing in this one. Lets smash the fuck outta them. Not a huge fan of Rice at 6, but we're definitely all about the offense today. And our bench still looks strong AF even with Kai, Madueke, Piero, Jesus all out and leaving Dowman out of the team.

Can't for the life of me figure out who Piero is. Obviously something of a typo but who?

Edit: just checked and I guess it's not a typo, Piero is Hincapie. Never knew his first name haha.

I smell a Gyokeres hatty

Mirth

This is a Wenger era line up*

*with proper defenders

USArsenal

Lets hope we actually have our shooting boots on today. A nice early goal (for us, that is) would be good.

Big Willie - Piero Hincapie

Big Willie I guess it's not a typo, Piero is Hincapie

Things we never thought we’d see!
