Are Clichy and Sagna fit?

Both Clichy and Sagna are fit. Rosicky, Nasri are the most noteable that are injured right now.

I was just pretty sure that one of our fullbacks picked up a niggle near the end of last year.

Celtic are decent on the wings. As much as I want him to go on fire, McGeady is half decent and Maloney is another danger.

I don't think they'll have come up against anything like Nasri and Clichy though, so that'll be interesting.

I'd go with Cesc and Diaby I think. Eduardo with Walcott/Van Persie up front, as he'd tie any of Celtic's centrebacks in knots for 90 minutes.

I'm hoping he's at least on the bench. The kid oozes class already. In my opinion if he's good enough, he's old enough.

Playing Celtic at their home will be difficult. Teams like Meelan, ManUre and Barca have been troubled up there.

Never a truer word spoken.

papaguy

Anyone with ANY pace will tie the Celtic defence in knots.

The two centre backs they have are fairly good in the air, but a bit on the lumbering clogger side when it comes to dealing with quick players

Excuse my ignorance on this, but how does Celtic plays it football? I hope they are not one of those teams who just park the bus when coming against an attacking team like the mighty Arse.

They'll play better football under Mowbray, but it might be their downfall.

Obviously, I'm biased, but they'll not be afraid to try and kick Arsenal off the park, especially at the San Giro.

They probably won't park the bus though, it's a very un-Mowbray thing to do.

It was Clichy who had a back problem, but apparently its better now. He should play. I expect Wenger to play Arshavin on the wing probably since Nasri and Rosicky will be out, and probably Theo on the other wing.

I just hope Vermaelen is fit, don't want to see Silvestre or Djourou at the back in such an important game.

Hopefully it'll be Walcott and Arshavin on the wings, Fabregas and either Denilson or Song in the middle and Eduardo and Van Persie up front.

Wilshere and Bendtner can come off the bench if we need a goal.
