Cazorla should be in that side ahead of Elneny. We do have squad depth, so maybe we will cope better when the injury crisis hits this season. However, that still relies on Wenger playing a system for the players he has available.
You're right I guess Elneny doesn't have the experience of the league just yet. I think it won't be long though until Cazorla is a regular substitute as Elneny has the energy to help dominate the midfield.
I feel Elneny-Xhaka is a good, balanced pairing as they are both full of running, one keeps passes simple and the other has the ability to play the quarterback position and is defensively strong.
I see Cazorla as a future impact player, possibly a #10 backup and playing in midfield in the games where the opposition park the bus and we don't need to concentrate on breaking up attacks so much.
Ramsey when fit and on form may not be able to get into the squad!
This surprises no one.

you say that, but to date Wenger has shoe-horned him into the side whenever possible, it will be refreshing to see him left out for a change
Only Ozil and Sanchez jump off the page, and I rate Koscielny, but everyone else wouldn't look out of place at Stoke, Everton et al
you left out Wilshere but I also aluded to the same thing some weeks back.
I am worried about how long it will take for us to gel and if it wont be too late by then.We may see our best form in the second half of the season.
Cech
Bellerin - Mustafi - Koscielny - Monreal
Xhaka
Perez - Ozil - Cazorla/Wilshere - Sanchez
Giroud
I think that's our strongest attacking team. I know Giroud is not a world class striker but Perez isn't either from what I've seen - better working with Giroud I suspect. Cazorla or Wilshere is tough and would be on day-to-day form.
There is NO way The Ox gets anywhere near our first 11
