08/11/2015 | Arsenal 1-1 Tottenham | Premier League

[Zenith]

Spurs will be tired too. Not as bad as we will be buy they still have 3 games in less than a week.

This. Also if Anderlecht bully them like in the first leg their confidence level will hit rock bottom come next weekend.

they dont care about the europa league. The 11 that will play us will have 2 players at most against anderlecht. Its us who will have lest rest

[Angelito]

What's with all this 11 players stuff last few days? We have at least 14 first team players available, our full defence is fit just we have no attacking subs atm outside Iwobi (an unproven kid before I get told off for saying not good enough).

That precisely.

You won't expect Deb, Chambers, Gabriel, and Flamini to fill in for our attackers. If things aren't working with the set of 11 players we field, we don't have a game changer on the bench.

[Est83]

Gibbs can be very effective attacking-wise. Started off as an AM/LW.

If things aren't working, Gibbs could come on, Sanchez can go right, and Campbell could play up top instead of Giroud.

Debuchy could also come on, push Bellerin further up, and again Campbell could play centrally.

Campbell playing with pace and a bit of freedom will be the tactical change that brings a change to the way the providers play (the way Walcott provides options). It's far from ideal, but Bellerin and Gibbs are both effective further up, and the switch up top with Campbell is almost identical to having Theo as an alternative to Giroud. Still threadbare, still not ideal...still desperately missing Wilshere, Rosicky and the rest. But considering the injuries, they're actually pretty good options.

Wenger confirmed earlier that Chambo may be fit for this!

Big news.

In what parallel universe does an Arsenal player return ahead of schedule?

Would be great news, hope he's fit for Tottenham even if he misses this.

If I remember correctly Giroud came back early from his long-term injury last season.

Koscielny also returned a week or two earlier than expected a month ago.

Ffs thought this was the Munich thread. But yeah, massive if he's fit for this (Tottenham).

[Angelito]

Even if Ox is back, I'd want Campbell to start this. Ox is always better as an impact sub.

[Sims]

Bellerin ruled out

Luckily Debuchy looked deeeecent

[Callum]

Huge game this aside from the rivalry aspect. They've been in decent form lately and our European mishaps coupled with injury issues have us on the ropes a bit. If we can get a win here going into the international break we'll be looking much better.

[elkanofan]

These injuries are down to Wenger not buying or getting some loans as backup. He has overstretched a few players and we are getting all these muscle injuries keeping players out for 2/3 weeks now.

Sounds about right, one, I just hope we don't embarrass ourselves.

Cech
Debuchy - Mertesacker - Koscielny - Monreal
Coquelin - Cazorla
Campbell - Ozil - Alexis
Giroud

Picks itself really.
