3 Arsenal players that deserve to start against Burnley

Mohamed Elneny

The Egyptian international signed earlier this month but is yet to make his debut, which isn’t that surprising considering the two games since his arrival have been a tough physical test against Stoke City and a crucial clash with Chelsea.

Against Burnley in the FA Cup though, this is the ideal opportunity for Elneny to make his debut for Arsenal and he will represent the 51st country in the boast a player for the Gunners. His experience will be crucial and should help him to settle quickly.

A midfield-role in front of the back-four would be ideal for Elneny who, despite claims that state otherwise, is better as a box-to-box midfielder rather than a defensive one. With the right partner this weekend, he could be a potential match-winner.
