I am pretty sure this is on SS2. Anyways I cannot bear to see Santos on LB nor does our 'captain' alongside Per. It is unthinkable for a captain to be dropped under Arsène, which is a real shame really. Get ruthless and wield the axe but for this game play him instead of Santos. With Gibbs nowhere near the training ground, doubt he will take part in this game.

I would go with the following line up to start:


-----------Vito

Sagna Per Koscielny Vermaelen


---Arteta Jack (or Coquelin)


---------Santi


Walcott Podolski Arshavin

Schalke lost their away game today as well, 2-3 at Hoffenheim, although rather unlucky.

This is going to be tough, not just because of our usual away form, but because of us being under pressure to get a result in this. We cannot afford to finish not on Top of the group.

Suffice to say that we need a massive improvement in comparison to our last couple of games.

Really?
I agree with this. But I doubt Wenger will, Farfan or no Farfan, he's no fan of such moves (seen today).

And if we need to score goals, why take off our only real CF?

If Ramsey ONCE AGAIN starts on the right.

-We need a positive, fluid, purposeful, potent, attacking display.
-Vermaelen should sit this one out, he's been inconsistent at best. Kos should have the chance to stake his claim, if he can find last seasons form we'll be better off. Arteta can take over captaincy.
-Wilshere should play his first CL game for a while seeing as he'll be missing the weekend
-Vito may be coming into decent form, he's been quality in his last two games. We should persist with him.
-Whoever plays up front, needs to score.

Mannone

Sagna
Koscielny
Mertesacker
Santos

Arteta
Wilshere
Cazorla

Walcott
Podolski
Ox?)

Thinking 1-3 Arsenal, Podolski, Walcott and Caz or for us, Huntelaar for them.

Come on the Arsenal!

CL group stage is an annoyance. Meh, we need a point anyway.

How long is Jack suspend for? I know it doesnt count for CL, but will he back for Sp**s?

Hope Ox and Walcott will start, our wingers have been completely blunt and both of them have been sorely missed

Re: UCL – Schalke vs Arsenal – 7:45pm – 6/11/12 | ITV

I cant imagine us getting even a point here, we simply lack quality.

We'll skate through group stage by edging out Montpellier and Olympiakos, but Shalke will top the group barring them collapsing.

Really sad what's happened to us

A second yellow normally means a one-match ban, so he'll be back for the nld.

If he hadnt got sent he off, he would have had two games under his belt for the NLD, derby and so would be nearing full fitness instead he will get 1 and half week rest which isnt what you need when you have just come back

Could be, but Wilshere is one of the few players I am not worried about. It would be worse if he didn't get a second yellow today, but got sent off/injured against Fulham instead. I'm not too unhappy about him not playing 3 tough games in 8 days. We need to be careful with Jack.
