Lose this and any slim chances of top 4 are out

Lose this and it tells Wenger to focus all his attention on the EL. Plus lulls chelsea into a false sense of security before we hit them hard in the LC.

[CrimsonGunner11]

Assuming Kos, Monreal, Ramsey, and Kolasinac are out:

Cech(c)
Debuchy Mustafi Chambers
Bellerin --- Wilshere --- Elneny --- Niles
Ozil --- Alexis
Lacazette
Subs: Ospina, Mertesacker, Coquelin, Xhaka, Iwobi, Walcott, Welbeck

4-3-3

--------------------Cech(c)---------------------
Debuchy--Mustafi-- Chambers-Niles
-------------Coq--Wilshere- Elneny --- ---
-------Ozil --- Lacazette-----Alexis-------

Kola for Niles (if he's fit) but yeah - this.

Xhaka and Bellerin need to be dropped.

[BouncySean]

Wenger wouldn't have the guts to do this but I'd go with:

--------------------Cech---------------------
Chambers--Mustafi-- Holding-----
Bellerin----Niles--Wilshere--Nelson--
-------Ozil --- Lacazette-----Alexis-------

[Sims]

ozil wasnt in training today but murmurs he still might start

Chambers--Mustafi-- Holding-----
Bellerin----Niles--Wilshere--Nelson--
-------Ozil --- Lacazette-----Alexis-------

This midfield line is as weak as a piece of paper.

[Arsenal Tone]

Cech
Chambers-Mustafi-Koscielny-Kolasinac
Elneny
Wilshere-Xhaka
Ozil——Alexis
Lacazette

[ESR10]

Kolasinac is two weeks out.
If Monreal, Özil and Koscielny will be fit, is an uncertainty.

If all won't play :

Any clown
Debuchy - Chambers - Mustafi - Niles
Coquelin
ElNeny - Xhaka
Wilshere
Alexis - Lacazette

[arsenalpan]

Why people still want Xhaka in the midfield. This guy does nothing in defense. Tbh, our team could defend much better with 10 men only. He is way too slow for EPL. The only contribution he provides is 1 or 2 long ball passes in 90 minutes.

Elneny,Wilshere and anyone else will do better than Elneny,Wilshere and Xhaka. Even just 2 of Elneny and Wilshere can do a better job than 3 of them.

Not holding out much hope for a win here, still you never know if our luck lasts out we might get a point.
