Team for Arsenal
|
|
May be a bit early but I'm bored at work so what the hell. I'd be tempted to revert to 5 at the back for this but MP clearly doesn't want to do that so:
Fabianski
Fredericks
Balbuena
Diop
Cresswell
Rice
Wilshere
Masuaku
Anderson
Yarmolenko
Arnautovic
Also may be tempted to have a 3rd battling midfielder in there as this may well be a game we don't see much of the ball, but I think Arsenal's defence is there for the taking at the moment so should go for it! try and kick-start our season.

If we play 4-4-2 as is to be believed, looking at another 4 goal defeat and confidence severely tested, we ain’t got the full backs to play that way.
4-2-3-1 we might make a game of it but apparently he doesn’t like 2 holding, stubborn bugger.

Four changes according to ExWhu, with two starting for the first time this season. So how about:
Fabianski
Fredericks
Diop
Ogbonna
Masuaku
Sanchez
Wilshere
Antonio
Arnie
Anderson
Chicharito
If so, there's a lot of pace on the counter. We're gonna win 3-4.

Pel has to show he knows what he is doing today. I just want to see some commitment and a team performance today, losing will not hurt but doing it without creating chances and challenging them will.

Altho not vital obviously, I’ll be interested how much possession we have against a team like Arsenal compared to how little we used to have the ball in recent seasons. What with our new passing system

Having said after the Bournemouth match they still had last season in the backs of their minds time surely to get the new guys in and have some pace in the side. Fredericks and Rice must get a run and not be dropped because we lost one match! Would like to see Diop too.

If it’s a back four we can only hope Masuaku is as far away from the Emirates as possible.

If EX is correct and there are indeed 4 changes then my guess would be:
Diop in for Balbeuna
Either Obiang or Sanchez in for Noble
Yarmolenko in for either Snodgrass or Hernandez
Those would be the 3 obvious ones to come in.
Cresswell or Fredericks might be the 4th one to come in?

Agreed that Stubbo has most likely nailed it
Will be a big shout if Diop and Balbuena start at centre half together but in fairness we can’t get worse defensively than we have been.

Stubbo - I reckon you've called it right. Yarmolenko has to start. Obiang rather than Rice, though I would hope Rice is at least restored to the bench. I would think Diop will come in for Ogbonna, who has looked really ponderous, for me.
