Xhaka will be first choice sooner rather than later, but people are panicking over him not starting this early in his Arsenal career is laughable. Caz and Coq is a very good, and established, partnership. Absolutely no need to rush Xhaka into the team.
Saying that, think I would prefer Xhaka and Coq against Chelsea

Spot on. I wouldnt drop Santi though, he was very important today

Xhaka and Perez are not yet up to speed with the domestic game.Even mustafi is struggling a bit. i am still worried about our forward press but theo has started the season well.Once Perez is in the first team him and Sanchez will wreck havock.
I think Sanchez taking the penalty means Wenger is definitely playing him as a striker this season. aybe Perez on the one wing and Theo on the other.
I am still worried about our fullbacks.

All three are interoperable. Which is the point of a tiki-tika attack. Look at Barca
pep and klopp implementing the same thing.

Sanchez needs to learn the cf position. its not going to happen overnight but he needs to keep at it. He hasall the right attributes

We finally look like we have some strength in depth but are still lacking in so.e positions like up front. Perez still needs to prove himself as better than Giroud. At £17m a a reputation as no more than a journeyman player he may or may not turn out to be better.
Even Walcott seems to be improving a bit as he gets used to his old position of playing wide on the right again.

It's actually a good thing that our new players can take time to settle in. Rather they be bed in slowly to getting thrown in the deep in. The quality of the squad is really good consider we Ramsey, Giroud, Per, Gabriel are all injured.

Yes it is. Maybe you can stop panicking over Xhaka and Lucas not starting now?

Mf we are well stocked however I would still like to see a little bit more of Perez. What was the point of giving him 4 mins today. Pointless.

Saving him for Forest.
