I think 3-4-3 probably makes sense especially against Chelsea

Ramsdale
White Holding Gabriel Nuno
Elneny
Ode Xhaka
Saka Eddie ESR

My guess

Fack me it's 2022 and we still have Elneny in MF

Looks like a back 4 with White at RB? Unless it’s official being stated it’s a back 3
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah, that is what it looks like to me.

Arsenal subs: Leno, Cedric, Swanson, Azeez, Lokonga,Hutchinson, Pepe, Martinelli, Lacacette

Chelsea subs: Kepa, Thiago Silva, Chalobah, Jorginho, Saul, Barkley, Ziyech, Pulisic, Havertz

Rüdiger and Kova not even in the Chelsea squad.

We are miles behind the top teams.

Chelsea basically playing a Carabao Cup XI

Arteta straight up playing for a draw

Hopefully we can pull out a surprise win like last year.

Wtf is that lineup

130M spent in the summer and we have that line up

There are some on here who actually think Arteta is not a defensive manager.

Why not play Pepe iand try and attack Chelsea.

Arteta has set up the team as if we have won our last 3 games

Tonight it is a more cautious line-up.

He is going for a point tonight. He isnt a defensive manager ffs.

I'd have gone Martinelli ahead of ESR or Eddie

Gabriel can be a bit headless at times but I don't get ESR starting who has been poor of late

Me too, TBag. But all the players you mentioned werent at the races the last few games. Saka crying for a breather but he is the only threat we can provide tonight.

James is going to facking eat up ESR

He doesn't like Martinelli and Nuno together.

That came also in my mind, DJ.

Yeah that's true. Just think ESR has been bad lately and Marti likes playing Chelsea

He isnt convinced of Cedric either as he provide absolute no offensive threat neither keeping his opponent quiet. Desperate.

This game is all about to keep the 0 first.

Arteta doesn't trust Xhaka to sit either. That explains Elneny.

Brentford went to Chelsea and attacked them and scored 4.

We are meant to be a big club but have set up like relegation fodder
