Arsenal v Burnley - FA Cup

[Lord Dula]

I'd rest Sagna, Arshavin and Nasri for this one.

 

[Clrnc]

I'd go with

Fabianski

Eboue Gallas Djourou Gibbs
Arshavin Diaby Ramsey Merida
RVP Bendtner

I really would want to try and rest as much players as possible...

 

[Feet]

I'd rest Sagna, Arshavin and Nasri for this one.

I can understand Nasri and Sagna, they've both given everythng recently and look knackered - but I can't understand why you'd rest Arsharvin. To me he needs games to get match fit and he's not going to play at Roma so he'll get his rest then anyway.

Al
Eboue Djourou Toure Gibbs
Arsharvin Denilson Ramsey Vela
Bendtner RvP

Maybe swap Ramsey for Diaby in the second half.

 

[Anzac]

Play AA - no point saving him for the CL........also play Vela & Bendtner up front.

Are any of our injured players back as yet?
If so bring them on as subs for 20 mins.

 

[TomasCR]

No way Arshavin is going to get a rest. He needs to get some games to be useful for the rest of the season. Not that he hasn´t been useful so far, but he can be even more as soon as he will be physically there. After this game, he will have another week to work hard and that should be enough.

It´s actually interesting to watch all the line-ups when every of them is differrent. Finally, for the first time, we have something to chose from. I´m getting excited.

 

[banduan]

Rest Nasri and Denilson they're being run down to the ground at this rate.

 

[Clrnc]

our crest does indeed suck ass. it's awful.

I think our crest is the most beautiful in the world. My room is full of it

 

[sam961gunners]

-------------Almunia-----------
--Sagna-Djourou-Gallas-Gibbs--
-Walcott-Denilson-Diaby-Arshavin-
---------Bendtner-Eduardo---------

Nasri could do with a rest, Walcott and Eduardo should come off after an hour, if we have a decent lead Denilson aswell.

 

[irishgunnerz]

Would like to see Denilson Nasri and Clichy rested. And eh would love to see Eboue 'rested' too.

After that I'd hope we'd pick as strong a line up as we could

 

[Proof]

Considering that Eduardo and Walcott will be back, I would go with this. Hopefully, Nasri will be rested for this one.

------------- Fabiasnki ---------------
--- Eboue --- Djourou --- Gallas --- Gibbs ---
--- Walcott --- Denilson --- Diaby --- Arshavin ---
------------- Bendtner ---- Eduardo --------------

 

[Feet]

If they are back I'd use Walcott and Eduardo as second half subs only, assuming we were leading.

 

[AFCG7]

If it were up to me i would play a strong lineup from the start and try to put the tie away , before making subs later.

 

[progman07]

Think AW will blood some youngsters in this one

Fabianski
Eboue - Gallas - Djourou - Gibbs
Theo*/Wilshere - Rambo - Song - Arshavin
Edu*/RvP - Vela

*If Fit

Hopefully we will wrap this one up in the 1st half.

No way. We are going for the FA Cup, I seriously doubt Wilshere, Ramsey will start.

 

[USArsenal]

Theo will never start even if he is "back".. he has been out for too long to be thrown straight back into a starting spot.. Eddy is a bit different because he has started a game (last round) and scored 2 goals, and has only been out for a couple weeks (keeping the year layoff out of the picture for now).... Same thing will happen for Cesc & Rozza.. they will come back with a sub appearance or 2 until they get themselves into game shape...

i wouldnt mind Theo against Burnley if he was ready, but i dont think he is yet...

 

[nazo]

Robin will play for at least 60 minutes. Why would he be rested in the first place? I'm hoping Edu, Ade and Theo are atleast on the bench. 1 of the 3 should start (Eduardo imo). Arshavin should start too, he'll have a week rest after this game.

 

[USArsenal]

Robin - yes
Eduardo, if fit - yes
Arshavin - yes

if Ade or Theo can make it to the bench, then they get cameos.. although, Ade could get a start if he's healthy so we can get him back to some kind of sharpness for the upcoming Prem & CL games

 

[qs]

Imagine having

Robin - Arshavin - Theo
--------Eduardo -------

for this game. Mmmmmm...goals.

 

[USArsenal]

and who behind them? Song & Denilson? almost a 4-2-3-1 formation?

 

[qs]

Denilson and Diaby preferably.

 

[Gurgen]

Arshavin won't play I think, he played the full 90 twice in three days.
