Football is back, baby!!!
Likely starting XI
Prediction
Arsenal 3-0 Nottingham Forest
Country: Canada
He's blunt bcz he's not fully fit. I'd rather play our fittest players at this stage.
Country: England
Missing this one as I’ll be in Durham this weekend. Also missing the United game (again) as I’ll be in the Isle of fooking Wight. I hate the wife making arrangements before the fixture list is released and/or Sky start pissing around with them…
Enjoy mate, great city! You may even be able to get a beer for under a fiver there as well…
Probably the same line up as City in the Riou Charity Shield.
Could do with going with Havertz at left 8 since this is Forest and not City, but I guess Arteta will want to be a bit more pragmatic for the first fixture.

I'm backing an unchanged 11 & bench from the Community Shield, why would he change the 11 when we just beat Manchester City haha.

Would like to see Rice at 6, Havertz at 8 and Trossard at 9 and just completely outplay them.
No idea what Arteta will do though…

We won't get any support from them. Howard Webb will make sure certain clubs get advantage throughout the season.

Shouldn't matter even if they are against us, consididering how we went over City we can't be afraid of the refereeing haha.
I’d imagine it will be same again, you don’t piss about on the opening day, all about getting the win.
Thought Havertz did enough at 9 to play there on merit.
What I want to see is a clean sheet though, last season we conceded far far too many at home.

In the famous words of @farzad4daarse we can win, draw or lose this match.
However I am expecting a comfortable win for us.
4-1 win for me.

Trossard needs to be rewarded with the start - only way to generate internal competition is to reward good form
Who for though. In place of Rice/Partey is a big call, but if Havertz is a LCM then home to Forest has to be a game he is down to play there - if all fit.
Dropping Havertz is news and noise we could do without
Martinelli wasn't great and I doubt Forest are going to leave much space behind.
Trossard for Martinelli for me - stick with the rest.

Same team as the Community Shield.
Unless Rice is still feeling a bit of a knock, then bring Trossard in up front and drop Havertz into midfield.
4-1 to The Arsenal!

They've had a really poor pre-season, go in for the kill with:
Ramsdale
White Saliba Gabriel Timber
Ødegaard Rice Havertz
Saka Trossard Martinelli

White Saliba Gabriel Timber
Ødegaard Rice Havertz

Should be sticking 4 or 5 past them with that lot and send a message out to the rest of the league.
