That's the one.

Cazorla out? :think:

He was great vs. Liverpool.
I don't think he was really exceptional. Anyway, the point should be using your best players in the position which they are most effective rather than trying to shoehorn all of them in the team.

Cazorla and Coquelin as pivot won't work against many top teams and the only reason it kind of worked against Liverpool was because our forwards didn't give the Liverpool players a chance to play out from the back.

Wouldn't be dropping him, just resting.

Gives Walcott a chance to get a run out against relegation fodder and means Cazorla is fresh for the Cup game.

Wenger is notoriously shit at rotation, we have a squad brimming with quality and should switch it up more often.

Fair enough. I wouldn't be too worried about rotation at the moment though given how close we are to the end of the season and that there's a nice break between most matches as well.

We can't afford to take anyone lightly so I'd field our strongest side possible in each match.

Must win game, so I say start the same 11 that played against Liverpool. People putting Theo in are misguided. I don't see him starting another game for the rest of the season. Maybe if we get to the last game and we have nothing to play for.

If we beat Burnley on Saturday, it will be 8 PL wins in a row for the first time since the Invincibles (9 wins) in March 2004.

Yep, we would be going into the Chelsea game looking to tie our club record.

If we beat Chelsea that will be a club record for consecutive home wins only, our overall record is 14 wins in a row - to equal that we have to win out.

Yep.

We need to take each game at a time. It can be done and it will give this team huge confidence if we manage to string together 10+ straight wins.

Thought he was average and our "poorest" player on the pitch that day.

But as Vava said, it's just a rest. We have the FA Cup semis coming up, so we need to keep one eye on that.

Yep. The way he's under-using Rosicky is criminal.

Burnley have decent record against top team. But I still want Sanchez to start from the bench.

Sanchez would sub himself in if Wenger benched him. :P

We don't need to rest anyone but we need to manage our squad better, which is something Wenger sucks at. Rotating squad will result in happier and more ready backups when needed. Also might prevent injuries to our usual starters.

Although I have a feeling Walcott could start here.
