Good to see Emery mixing it up a bit.
Good team. COYG
Excited.
COYG!
Come on Arsenal, good strong team.
Good one. Let’s go score a bag full of goals…and keep a clean sheet.
Happy to see Holding! Great looking team, no excuses lads.
Was hoping for a start for Nketiah. This boy has something about him. Hope him and Emile will get some minutes today. #UpTheArse
I’ll hope for 45 minutes for each…after a 5-0 start in the first half!
Anyone any idea what the problem with Mavropanos is? Just watched a video of yesterdays training session and he looked all right there. But he’s not even in the squad.
Off topic but I’m watching Villareal and Santi is pressing in the 83rd minute like there’s no tomorrow. Massive respect to him that he has managed to play top Level Football again after all this shit he’s gone through.
Yeah probably depends on the result. If we’re up atleast two goals I could see Auba getting subbed for Nketiah quite early.
This is a serious line up – stronger than I thought! I hope someone doesn’t go back to Ukraine with a very damaging result.
I hope someone goes back to Ukraine with a seriously damaging result.
All the big names in for Vorskla
Congratulations to the new boys starting at home. COYG!
A few too many first teamers starting for me. But hopefully we get a lead and then sub on players like Nketiah and Smith Rowe.
That is a very solid team. It’s a shame Smith-Rowe and Eddie aren’t starting, but maybe when we have a few points in the group Emery will gamble on them.
Let’s hope we beat them silly.
Looking forward to this especially seeing Leno’s feet! With Elneny and Torreira in front of the defence I can’t see us conceding! Famous last words…?
What does Torreira have to do to start a game…..never mind
The Vorskla line up is a commentator’s nightmare
Where’s mavropanos?
Injured
Nice line up, giving Potential first Team starters a Chance to show their wit
