02/12/19 | Standard Liège 2-2 Arsenal | Europa League

[Zenith]

Wonder who'll play at left back considering we don't have a healthy first team backup left-back for Kolasinac.

Perhaps one of Tolajo Bola, Joel López or Tobi Omole will get a chance?

[Santi]

Kolasinac will play. We need to keep the momentum and top the group, would be stupid not to play a very good team here give another win is a must.

[gamechannel]

Don't we have to ensure that we don't lose this by more than 3 goals? If lose by 4 goals or more, we are out of the competition. Considering that this is our only chance of staying in contention for CL next season (and perhaps attracting a decent manager on the possibility of CL football next season), I wouldn't go with a totally young team. We lose, we f***ked. Remember, Liege can qualify if they beat us by 4 or more goals. They will be up for it.

I'd go for Bola. We can't go and risk Kolasinac he's our only senior left back plus he played Monday even though he wasn't even supposed to be on the bench!

This is Liege man. I don't wanna be that guy but come on, we don't need our first team to beat the third best team in Belgium.

Nah we beat them 4-0 in London and our goal difference is much better. Meaning that if we do lose 4-0 we still go through.

So it's basically 'don't lose 5-0 to stay in it, win to top it' which imo should also be possible with some youngsters thrown in the mix!

Pepe, Xhaka, Bellerin and Tierney all going to miss this game with injuries according to Sky sports

[Losmeister]

"The club said Granit Xhaka suffered a concussion when he was struck in the head by the ball from close range and the Swiss midfielder will miss the Europa League match"

Apparently none of the abovementioned academy left-backs have made the trip.

[VCC]

I would make one or two changes maximum from the week end, we need to get this groups of players confidence back I would play the back four expecting to play the PL on the weekend, get a good win boost the team

[DiamondGooner]

Tonights team

Martinez, Sokratis, Mavropanos, Luiz, Maitland-Niles, Guendouzi, Willock, Smith Rowe, Saka, Nelson, Lacazette

[Zenith]

Looks like a back three with two wing backs. Will be interesting to see who'll be filling in on our left hand side.

Gut feeling says it'll be Saka with ESR as the attacking midfielder behind Nelson and Lacazette ahead of a Guendouzi-Willock pivot.

The trio at the back speaks for itself.

[Phil71]

Attacking side.

Mavrapanos picked! Didn't get a look in with Emery.

[Pat Rice in Short Shorts]

Saka at wingback. Interesting. This formation is pretty attacking for an away match....good!

Sclessin is one of the last places you want to resort to simulation like Guendouzi did there.

He's literally begging the opposing fans to be on his back for the entire evening.

One of the more intimidating grounds to visit in Western Europe.
