The Arsenal v Shaktar Donetsk, 8pm Tuesday 22 October

[Mac76]

0-3 Danylo hatter

Saliba can play this one which is good, maybe we use Kiwior instead of Gabriel to give him a rest

Saka shouldn't start in this one and preferably isn't on the bench either

While to avoid those two extra games we really need to try to win this one, that doesn't mean we shouldn't change things around a bit, assuming Shaktar are as mediocre as everyone seems to think they are

plus to have any hope against Liverpool we need to be at best to our full capacity

So maybe something like this:

Neto

Partey Saliba Kiwior Lewis-Skelly

Jorg Rice

Sterling Nwaneri Martinelli

Jesus


I know it won't look like that but he needs to play some people into form and not overtire others

[HCZ_Reborn]

Who holds up the ball up front in that lineup ?

[Mac76]

In theory Jesus as he has shown in the past he is capable of doing that, but I know you will say he tends to drift all over the pitch and isn;t on great form

We won't play this lineup and it's probably a bit too ropey tbh but these guys are all on the payroll because they can supposedly do a job for us and with Liverpool coming up we need to rotate

that said we do then have four days clear before the Liverpool game so we can play a few more first teamers than this

[Marc Overmars]

Need to ensure this is a formality and good prep for Liverpool. Absolutely do not need another disaster heading into the weekend.

Huge games coming up and if we don’t play ourselves back into form we will be in the gutter.

[Letters]

I hope we win, tbh.

It's on Prime so should be able to watch most* of it.

This is surely a guaranteed Zinchenko start.
