No play the strongest team on Saturday. I don't want us to lose momentum in the league.

As for Chelsea, mourinho will play a strong team and I'm pretty sure Wenger will beef up the team that beat west brom.

If he picks the same team that he did for west brom then it's purely a question of how many for Chelsea

We have enough depth to play our strongest team v Palace. Definitely wouldn't have Özil, Ramsey and Cazorla in the League cup just before a massive double of games.
Hopefully Flamini. Will get booked Saturday and miss the Chelsea game with suspension, rather than pick one up later and miss a big game.
Don't see the need to play Arteta and Flamini v Palace, much prefer to Ramsey alongside Flamini.
Also would be nice to see Gnabry start v Palace on the wing.

This is the team I would play vs. Chelsea.

Fabianski
Jenkinson Sagna Vermaelan Monreal
Arteta Rosicky/Wilshere
Gnabry Eisfeld Ryo
Bendtner

With injuries we already have we shouldn't risk many of our first team.

Its an interesting conundrum. If Flamini fit he will start in place of Ramsey. It was Wengers intention to rest Rambo against Norwich but that didnt happen. Arteta hasn't played loads so I expect him and Flamini to start. Would like to see Cazorla, Rosicky, Gnarby against Palace. Ozil on bench.
Not sure about the Chelsea game. We all know AW doesn't usually put out his first team. I can see Verm, Nacho and Jenks playing, maybe Cazorla for match fitness purposes....dunno who else!!!
