Rumour is that he was dropped for disrupting the playing style of the team. No reliable sources though. Just loads of goal.com-like sites.


What, like actually pressing to win the ball back? smh

Can someone explain to me how Wenger has squared it so that our £30m winger Sanchez is playing 90m in pointless League Cup games, rested for the derby and now brought back to play against a weak Galatasaray side so that he wont be entriely fresh for Stamford Bridge.

This is quite the opposite of what rotation should achieve.

Tonight I'd go: Szczesny, Monreal, Kosc/Mert, Chambers, Flamini, Rosicky, Cazorla, Podolski, Campbell, Welbeck.

Ideally Chambers and Koscielny would both get a break tonight but we cant even give one of them a break FFS. Although, probably no point resting players for SB anyway, we havent got a prayer.


woahh why are you treating this like a league cup game?

surprised at how confident you are. wish i was as confident as you.

That's a brave selection tbh Zurich, looks like a league cup line up. Do you not rate Gala?

****ing lol if that is true. Surely it can't be though. Wenger wouldn't go spending £35m on a player that'd disrupt his team's playing style.

really like the team actually..

Although would prefer wilshire over either cazorla or ozil..

Presume its going to be a 4-1-4-1 with the front being

Flamini
Sanchez - ozil - cazorla - ox
Welbeck

?

It's a 4-2-3-1 with either Cazorla or the Ox sitting in with Flamini. That's the line up but the formation is only speculative. See edit.

Only just clocked that User name is from a Kanye song. Heartless I think
if jam is back with a name that is no relation to his previous name, then honestly.. **** this forum.

I want a casual chat about football, not a freaking memory and identification test, where I have to remember a dozen dupes, and try and work out who a dozen more are..

Get it together people.. pick a name, and stick with it.

I thought about that.. if its carzorla there, then I would be worried..

Ox has played there before, parterning ramsey, didnt he?

Either way, I am happy to see both ox + sanchez in the team, and with ramsey out there are not that many options..

Resting wilshire seems good considering he could be pretty vital if we are to get anything from chelsea this weekend..

(as in my mind for us to get anything we are going to need a player like him, to juts come out with a game of his life, and win us the game)

Official team sheet. 4-2-3-1 would make sense

The Wenger Love In on twitter about this 18 years of his (3 too many imo) has been quite nauseating. Hope tonight's match doesn't have any fanfare about AW.
Ok you know what, word has it that it's a 4231 with Cazorla and Flamini holding. Not a 4141...but we'll see.

quite suprised to see cazorla deeper..

Worries me a bit defensivly, as cazorla can go missing a fair bit in some games..
Lol at that midfield two

It would have made more sense to have Ox as the B2B. Then Alexis and Campbell interchanging on the wings
Not going to lie, seeing Ozil playing CAM with Ox, Alexis and Welbeck playing off him is a dream come true for me. Can't wait for Walcott to return as well >.<

Bury that thought, it ain't happening buddy.

A lot of pace in this team, should be a good match. Caz is definitely sitting in with Flamini, not a very defense minded team with a lot of the back line that's going to be going up the pitch, not to mention Cazorla's deeper role too soo hope we don't get done on the counter. Haven't really watched Gala but from what I've heard they're not too pacey? Meh.
