wenger hasnt been directly quoted as saying this week is a big week for the team, so i'm hopeful. whenever he does that we seem to crumble

Lehmann
Toure Senderos Campbell Cole
Ljungberg Flamini Cesc Pires
Henry Reyes (Not if Bergkamp is fit)
A massive gulf in class between the two teams, but if Rosenberg defend deep on our very small pitch it could cause us problems. If we treat it as just another game we should win, which is vital for the chelsea game and for the last 16.

It's going to be a selection headache for Wenger against Rosenborg. We are very light in the midfield as now and vieira's absence is going to compound it further. But i feel Lauren's absence is a more major blow than vieira's. I don't think wenger would break the Toure-Campbell partnership unless wenger has confidence in cygan 
. Hoyte would seem the most logical choice at RB but i would like to see Senderos play at RB and should be instructed not to go beyond the half-line. It's a bit similar to what Mourinho's been doing at Chelsea , playing Gallas at LB. I would go with Senderos since he has that physical presence which would be very useful in the case Rosenborg play high balls. We have to defend together as a team and we will win . 8)

I'd go with the following formation :
-------------------------Almunia
Senderos--------Toure----------Campbell--------Cole
-------------------------Flamini
-----------Ljunberg-----------------Clichy
-------------------------Pires
----------- Van Persie
-------------------------------------Henry
Wenger needs to change his tactics a bit for this and play a 4-1-2-1-2 Formation which switches to 4-3-3 when we attack.Cesc and pires in the middle would be a **** and reyes should be completely rested for this match. We need Clichy and Flamini along with Ljunberg for their defensive workrate which is going to be very important for this match. With Van Persie , Henry and Pires upfront backed by ljunberg and clichy i'm sure we'll score a couple goals.
2-0 to THE ARSENAL ...............

Is Cygan injured. Because if he's fit for the Rosenberg game he might play
Toure, Cygan, Campbell, Cole
Freddie, Flamini, Cesc, Pires
Reyes Henry
This time last season Lauren was out injured so Wenger moved Toure to the right and placed Cygan in the center.

This Rosenborg bloke thinks Rosenborg will walk away with a result, and that Henry is ordinary. Cue Henry hat-trick. :twisted:

would you prefer if he had said, 'when the whistle blows, henry becomes a demi-god who we cant touch'. in europe at times, henry really is just another player.

Better to experiment with the right back than centre back!malagar said:
Alumnia kept a clean sheet, that is something Lehman hasn't managed in two months IN ANY GAME! Birmingham may not have offered much upfront, but I bet Lehman would have somehow contrived to concede a goal!
I get the feeling he always places a bet with the Bookies that he would concede a goal. - That's a joke, by the way!

Hoyte Kolo Sol Ash
Pires Flamini Cesc Clichy
Freddie
Henry
That is what I would go with. When Fred went upfront yesterday he was unplayable. He could also drop back into midfield when we lose the ball to help them out with his work rate and running. Id also start with Clichy so we can have Reyes on the bench to come on.

No, I meant Henry plays better when he's pissed off. This bloke's comments might fire him up a bit, which can only be a good thing.
Patrick, we can't expect Henry to completly run games like in the EPL. That kind of contribution will only happen every once in a while, like against Inter. His contribution will be dumbed down due to more wary European defences.
So far this season, Henry's contribution haven't been any lesser than the likes of Schevshenko, Ronaldo, and Raul. He's scored and set up some important goals, and despite playing below his best he's always looked our most likely player to make a telling impact. And he's playing with an injury.
It's the rest of the attack who could step it up a bit, especially Reyes and Pires. So far this season, Henry and Freddie are the only ones that linked up effectively in the CL.

yeah, i agree with that line-up. Freddie played really well againest Birmingham and hopefully will continue his good form. Clichy would be a good inclusion to the line-up, he is a great player too bad he wont get to many games this season being second in line to left back behind ash who is amazing.
