Ramsey's energy is going to be crucial. He may be off form, but he provides at least that, even at his worst.
I would drop Ozil, bring Cazorla back in. Get Ozil on if we need him.
Think he'll start though, with Cazorla on the left
Would not be happy seeing Cazorla on the left!
OP
I like your team I'd go with that I do like Alexis on our luxury left hand side and might as well make it his own with Theo to return on the right
So I'd go with the same one but Alexis left, Ox right
Need to be able to hit Dortmund on the break as well
Tu Meke
You think he'll go Ozil and Santi wide Alexis up top, Welbz dropped?
Now I think about it, tactically it'd probably be better to play Ramsey instead of Ozil but don't think Wenger has the guts to put Ozil and Cazorla both on the bench.

If he does that, then we're in for a drubbing.
Didn't realise we were away
We need pace in the team and bags of it!
Both Santi and Ozil in the wide positions trying to dominate possession could bite us.
Upon this realisation I'd go with the same team as the City game
With the full backs changing and Arteta in for Flamini.
Need to pack out the midfield again
Cazorla on the left > Ozil on the left.
If Wenger wants Ozil out wide it should be on the right where he can cut in on to his stronger foot like he did at times for Madrid. Not on the left
Best team tactically for this game imo

Cazorla will definitely start, wasn't involved at all yesterday.
I think Welbeck will start too.
If Ozil and Cazorla both start, (I don't think they should) they will rotate.

England, Man City, Dortmund, Spurs.
Too much football.
I don't think his form merits getting dropped at all, but for the sake of rotation - given the hectic schedule we have - I'd bring Cazorla into the side.
I'm pretty indifferent between Wilshere, Ozil, and Cazorla at the moment, to be honest - so long as none of them get shoved out on the flanks!
I know Ramsey has come in for some criticism, but I still think his defensive contribution could prove vital against tougher opposition, so I'd prefer him to keep his place ahead of Wilshere at the moment.

Very true
We have ample squad depth in the centre of the park, so I feel we might as well rotate over the next few games.

=============
Dogg It's such a lottery this rotation business.
Look at City resting Toure against us with Bayern and Chelsea coming up - and it costing them.
Hopefully we'll choose wisely.
when do rosicky and podolski get a game
^ ^
They're looking at the Capital Cup for me.
feels weird as last year they were nailed on starters or they were definitely in contention to start when fit.
Ozil needs to be benched for at least a month.
I sort of want Özil to keep playing, because I feel like it's good to have him in the team. Admittedly he's not exactly storming it at the moment and I would like Rosicky to play, so maybe give him a rest.

Oxlade------------Özil----------Alexis
------------------Welbeck---------------
I think this is the perfect game to unleash the Ox from the start, Durm looks a bit dodgy at time so we need to take advatage of that whereas Alexis can keep Pizczeck occupied and negate his attacking capabilities.
I think Wilshere should be rested for this game, we need to manage him properly and Ramsey offers a lot more off the ball.
Perfect game for Özil to find some form as we will be set up as a counter attacking side which will play to his strengths.
Wilshere didn't get a minute against Leicester wouldn't be happy to be dropped for a big game like this and rightly so, there are others that should go way before he does
Why dropping Monreal for Gibbs. No need of that.
