Zelalem could be in team for this.

:shock:

Talk about baptism of fire if this is true. Wenger's got steel bollocks if he does this.

(Mind you, it's the kind of thing I'd do if I was a manager ).

-------- Fabianski ---------
Jenkinson - Kos - TV5 - Nacho
---------- Flamini ---------
---- Rosicky - Zelalem ----
Gnabry --- Giroud --- Podolski

Zelalem can really make a name for himself if he does well against the enemy, bold selection from Wenger if it turns out to be true

What the **** is this ****? Fabianski? Jenkinson for Sagna? Vermaelen for Mertesacker? No Arteta or Wilshere? First senior cap for Zelalem? Gnabry for Walcott? No Cazorla? :shock:

Has everyone forgotten who we're playing or something?

Zelalem............

 

[fabo]

Watch him run rings around these mugs if he does get minutes.

Sp**s home is always a great game, no doubts we're going through.

The Fabianski, Jenks, TV and Kos combo is a 36 car pile-up in heavy fog waiting to happen.

 

[Godwin1]

Adebeyor seems to be bothering at the moment so this wont be an easy game. I certinatly can't see us rest a lot of first team players. Playing Fabianski is mental.

 

[fabo]

Adebayor is an overrated wankstain who is a game away from returning to his usual form, just as soon as the new manager novelty wears off. They have a ******* amateur in charge aswell

Reading the Sp**s site is funny though - plenty of 'COYS' chest-thumping, talking about de-railing our season and the like.......

traffic jam in our penalty box - doesn't sound all that ominous

Adebayor is a handful when playing for a contract which seems like he is since he only has a year and a half left on his deal. Plus, he's always up for a game against us.

Anyways, we should put out our strongest possible team. We have 9 days between this and the Villa match so I don't see why we shouldn't be putting out a strong line-up.

Don't disagree with you there mate, but when he can be bothered to bring it he's a real threat.

Is he not inured? He got taken off in their last match.

 

[CurryFlavoured]

On current form when he actually looks bothered he is very dangerous, but you just know it'll come to an end sooner rather than later. He'll be dangerous against us though, he'll be up for this one so I wouldn't mind him sitting it out.

 

[Vela]

Most likely Zelalem will just be on the bench to make up numbers.

 

[TheSage]

We have to play the strongest side, we don't play again for over a week so what's the issue .... Sp**s will play 4-4-2 leaving them vulnerable through the middle ... we need to boss midfield as City/Liverpool did to them ...

 

[a_fourteen]

I think playing Zelalem along side Flamini would be a good idea. The few times we have played Arteta and Flamini we have looked very slow and uninventive through the middle. My eleven:

Gnabry-----Podolski----Walcott
-------------Cazorla
--------Zelalem-----Flamini

 

[VAVAVOOM 14]

Don't think Zelalem is ready to make his debut in a match of this stature, intensity, and importance.

Hard to see Wilshere not starting following his great performance against Cardiff and the passion he has for Arsenal ensures he'll be more than up for this one.

Rosicky should start too, another brilliant sub appearance and we have a lengthy rest after this.

Still have a feeling Özil will feature.

 

[redwhiteAustrian]

We should play the strongest possible eleven, and beat these mugs. I fully trust our players to put the required shift in which will see us beating them, I've got absolutely no doubt about that.

 

[a_fourteen]

Pretty sure we'll throw this game. Wenger has little interest in the cups.

 

[redwhiteAustrian]

Wenger knows he can't throw it if the opposition is Spu*s, and we're playing at home. No bloody way.
