This lineup would be very niceMustafi wrote:Martinez
Bellerin - Holding - Mustafi - Tierney
Willock - Ceballos
Özil
Pepe - Martinelli - Nelson
Subs: Leno - Niles - Mavropanos - Xhaka - Torreira - Saka - John-Jules
Pepe needs an easier game for his confidence. Ceballos could also use this game to regain his form.
Bellerin can play an hour this time.
Would like to see Mavropanos and John-Jules as well at some point.

Martinelli can def go up front and I'd like Torreiria to get a game at CDM along with Willock and Ozil.
Nelson needs to have a good game, getting a bit worried about him.

Yea Pepe had a poor game, but I still think he has a confidence issue right now. So yea, maybe don't start him, but also don't leave him out completely. You have to work thru these times. Every player goes through it. I'm hoping that is the issue of course. We'll see. Obviously he does well in training as Emery uses him for corners and free kicks, but that's gotta transition to the field sooner or later.

I'd start Pepe because a goal from open play would help his confidence and I doubt he'd see it as a demotion. Auba, Xhaka, Torreira, Luiz and Kolasinac started the last EL game.
Hoping we rest Auba this time around though. Hoping Martinelli starts. Nelson also needs some minutes to find his form.
