He will be replaced by Chambers. Everybody else should be available. We have a check-up this [Friday] morning, but all the other signs look quite positive. on Cech, Cazorla, Ramsey, Wilshere... Wilshere is showing good signs now of recovery, Santi is a bit slower. The players who will definitely be back from injury [after the international break] will be Ramsey, Cech and maybe Flamini. But I don't think Cazorla or Wilshere will be straight after the international break.
Ospina Bellerin Per Kos Monreal Coquelin Elneny Ozil Sanchez Welbeck Iwobi I think we should let Alexis on the right for sometime so he plays more with the team than himself like he does on the left and gets seemingly found out.And please let us let Danny start every game until he has a really bad performance atleast. Should we try to get psg's Marquinos?Both Per and Kos are not worldclass,probably at best just below it,Gabriel wont reach there any time soon either,chambers is literally for the future..So we have to chuck one of them or instead of buying an RB,we can add the psg man and rotate him and chambers there when bellerin's injured,out of form..because can we afford to lose per's leadership?Obviously we wont get rid of koss as he is the best we got and gabriel is a decent investment who will come good and we have already invested time in him,chambers definitely not.. I think we either should get Ibra for his last to worldclass seasons and ruthelessly chuck Giroud and swap 140k walcott + cash for either Mahrez or Reus..If we wont get Ibra we definitely should go all in for Cavani,the man has had 35+ goals and assists from the left wing and in his favourite position can flourish again,the world class striker is really holding us back from being a force to also rans.35m should seal Edison Cavani comfortably.
Very tough game with Everton being the inform team. We will have our work cutout against the beastly Lukaku, who is currently on a purple patch and will take.some effort stopping. Coqs will have to double up with our other CBs to keep him quiet(er).
Yep Lukaku is the danger man. Despite going out to Barca in midweek the team actually played quite well so we need another performance like that today, with the crucial difference being that we must FINISH OUR CHANCES ! *and not concede 3 goals
We did play well against barca but that kind of play suits if that makes any sense. Everton play a different game and rely on the strong up front CF to make things happen, like Chelsea do. We arent the best against those types of CFs but if we are intelligent enough in midfield, we can provide additional support to our CBs. Its going to be a close game.
Shame that Campbell has fallen out of the team again but Iwobi is in good form and I can understand as it's hard to drop Sanchez despite his poor form
Has Campbell insulted Wenger's mum or something? He keeps on getting dropped for some inexplicable reason..
There's little chance we will play well today. We never do after an away UCL game. We just need the 3 points.
