[Garrincha]

Think they have a better midfield & attack. Hopefully we can click as a team.

[Riou]

Xhaka and Ceballos in the middle again...

...no more than one at a time Mikel...NO MORE THAN ONE!

 

[Lady_Gooner]

I don’t know if I expected messi to have joined since the last game but that team is so sad....

 

[Aevi]

No Guendouzi in the squad, controversial.

Tbf they done as good as we can hope for at current Arsenal standards before the covid break.

 

[A_G]

Did Guendouzi call Arteta a broke boi too? Can't believe Smith made the bench ahead of him.

 

[MutableEarth]

That's very likely 442 or 4231 with auba on wings and Saka as AM.

Ceballos starting AGAIN. Saka the only one with legs in that midfield. Hopefully Xhaka hits the ground running. Disappointed with no AMN or Willock in the middle - we need more athleticism in there, these guys are too slow.

I'm OK with the front 3. I'm still a huge Nketiah fan so I hope he does well. Hopefully Pepe can get on the ball more in the final 3rd. Xhaka will be important today. Just wish Arteta dropped Ceballos for this one, he hasn't done enough to start IMO.

 

[boonthegoon]

Bye bye Matteo? would have preferred him to ceballos tbh. Or even willock. OK with the team except for ceballos actually.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Need to get some time off he been bad and attitude is bad.

 

[Hunta]

Leno, Cedric, Chambers, Luiz, Mari, Torreira, Guendouzi, Martinelli

First team players missing.

Isn’t Højbjerg going to leave this summer? I was reading somewhere that his contract is up.

Since we’re broke and a midtable team, we might aswell bring him in for free. I’m certain he’s better than Torreira.

Really happy to see Smith in there to be honest, he deserves it. U18 captain when we won PL South, been one of the most consistent players in the U23 team too. Great passer, technical leader.

 

[krengon]

Matt Smith made the bench, that’s interesting.. Nice moment for him.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Leno, Cedric, Chambers, Luiz, Mari, Torreira, Guendouzi, Martinelli

First team players missing.

5 of them squad players only consider Torreira Martinelli and Leno first team.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

I read Matt Smith is also creative midfield could be useful because we miss these type of players

Hate the idea of Auba on the wing. Also hope they play more of a flat 3 in midfield rather than have a number 10

 

[Hunta]

Saka captain according to Sky.

 

[2Smokeyy]

I’m done with Arteta.

Ceballos again FFS.

He’s a doctor.
