Everyone complaining about Ozil starting.... the stage is set for him to have an absolute stormer of a match

Ox is the only one with pace and he is on the bench. Lets hope we go 3-0 up with half hour to go and throw him on so score even more on counter attack!

Just F%%ck off C**t

I think Wenger's actually got this right, pack it up and tire them out THEN throw on the pace. At home it could be a good decision.

The first 20 minutes of this game will be crucial. If we can avoid going 3 or 4 down we should have it in the bag

Sanogo to net a last gasp winner.

wenger hates podolski

Can't see Sanogo getting a game unless Giroud and another player get injured, so what's the point instead of Gnabry

hello

Ozil has pace when he chooses to use it.

And Tomas and Santi have a burst as well.

I don't know why people aren't complaining about Arteta though. The guy is a liability at the moment and if United pressure him they will get loads of chances to Van Persie.

Ignore him. He's an attention seeker. Obviously Özil should start, he's our best player and if we are being reactive then we should also drop Cazorla, Sagna and Giroud. Fact is, Ox is still on his way back from a lengthy lay-off, playing so much game time in a short space of time in such important matches will test him. Played well against Palace, but it's hardly like he shone against Liverpool.

Really don't see the problem with the team. Can't drop Arteta without a DM, even United would pick us off in midfield then.

When the hell did Santi play badly, he didn't play worse than many against Pool and has been in good form recently.

I wanted Wilshere and Rosicky in the middle. But if utd don't press, Arteta shouldn't be too bad....

With Flamini suspended and Diaby - remember him? - injured, its Arteta or nothing in front of the back four

If Arsenal loose im joining the W.O.B.

Don't fak it up Arsene, if we cant beat United now we are never gonna beat them.

I said this before and I will say it again. FIRST TEAM TO SCORE WILL WIN!!! Bookmark

Arsene Wenger's side have the division's best record when scoring the opening goal - winning on 16 of the 18 occasions they have done so, and losing only once.

Man Utd haven't lost this season in the prem when scoring first.

First goal is vital.

Will the wind play a part? Can see some freak United cross going in

Knowing our luck against them it may just be that way! 81 crosses, atleast 20 of those would be goal bound.

If Fellaini played like he does on Fifa 14 we'd be so fúcked

If utd actually create decent chances, something is terribly wrong. There's no way we can let Carrick and Cleverly dominate us.

If our defence is disciplined we'll do well. Can't afford any mistakes a la sagna in the same fixture last year.

As important (possibly more) as pace is tempo - when it's slow were are poor, and Rosicky is in there because he keeps the tempo up. The ball can move faster than any player, so if we get our passing at a good speed, the lack of Theo/Ox/Pod/Gnabry etc. will matter far less.

I'm just delighted that Rosicky is starting.
