Iwobi is a better option on the wings than Ozil
Another question is do you start Sanchez up front or Perez?
Assuming Giroud isn't fit, I'd have Sanchez on the left with Perez through the middle, although I'd expect them to interchange throughout the match
Providing we play a recognised striker, I'd drop Ozil. If we persist with Alexis up front then I'd drop Iwobi and put Ozil out wide
We need Giroud for this game. Chelsea are a fairly big team and with not Giroud or Per we have no presence in the air
Has Giroud ever had a good game against Chelsea? I'd give Lucas a go up front.
Wenger says Alexis is striker.
Next game Alexis scores twice in a 4-1 win.
Alexis is playing up front on Saturday.
It will be the same team that started v Hull

It's because of this that Giroud is Chelsea's ideal striker to play against, they'll dominate him. Probably wiser to use a different approach with the silky Alexis/Perez.
Giroud never performs against Chelsea and your having a pop at Ozil, in fact our last win vs Chelsea was when Giroud was axed.
Keep the same team with Xhaka in for Santi and we're good to go.
Xhaka offers better distribution than Cazorla plus superior physicality, no brainer really but AW is very loyal to Santi for some strange reason, Kante/Matic will bully him
If they are going to bully Santi what do you think will happen to Ozil who is the most light weight player in the team.
Coq should play against any top side (and IMO all sides).
--------- Coq - Xhaka --------
Sanchez - Ozil - Cazorla
------------- Perez -------------
I agree. Coq is a big game player. He has to start

If Xhaka plays on Sat, who drops out?
