Thats horrendous news. I was looking forward to how he builds on that performance against more of a serious side. This has taken some excitement out of the game for me, it will only be okay if I see some ESR.

Now that Trump is already toast I can't wait for this match already. Should be a real cracker.
Country: Norway
Would be nice to see ESR get a run-out. I think he'll need a loan come January if it continues like this.

They got a decent team and. and imo where unlucky not to qualify for UCL.
Country: England
Don't really get the clamouring for ESR or the kids in general, but if they play great.
This team is a bit better than some of you think and you will all probably panic if we come away with a 1 nil, 2 nil win with our second string.

Probably be Balogun for Nelson if he doesn’t make it. ESR hasn’t made the bench yet has he?

League is very weak
When you going to play the kids if not now? Every game is tricky.
The odd kid too, nobody is asking for the Wenger days where we would pick 5/6 kids and still beat most European opposition by a few goals.

Looking at how poor united was against the who, I am getting less confident for this match. A draw wouldn't be a disaster at all.

Runarsson, Kolasinac, Luiz , Mustafi, Cedric, Willock, Ceballos, Maitland-Niles, Nelson, Nketiah, Pepe.
I predict the above lineup hope Esr makes the bench and comes on

Confirmed. Nelson's becoming injury prone, that's a very bad sign. Little niggles everytime he starts to feature more.

Mikel winning the Europa should shut all those haters for good.
Player:Saliba
We can field a decent enough team from those who didn't start Vs United
Runarrson
Mustafi - Luiz - Xhaka
AMN - Ceballos - Willock - Kola
Pepe - Nketiah - Balogun
Runarrsson

Pepe - Nketiah - Balogun
I think Arteta will start a couple of first teamers. Perhaps Lacazette and Gabriel.

It's a shame Kido Taylor-Hart hasn't signed pro yet, so he can't be named in the squad. I'd really liked to have seen him get some minutes off the bench. God forbid Nelson doesn't work out at Arsenal, Taylor-Hart is arguably the closest stylistically, and although I'm unsure of his ceiling right now, he has a very interesting blend of attributes - speed, technique and excellent dribbling ability.
Would be nice to see Balogun start, even if it's LW. He can play very well in that position - much better than Nketiah would play it for us in any event. Or ESR, in a sort of advanced playmaking role. I hope Arteta keeps it relatively interesting in some respects.

Really frustrating was looking forward to see how he'll do again against much better side. hopefully that not force mikel to play Saka he badly need rest hopefully ESR will have his chance if he match fit.
any chance Miguel Azeez got a chance to play this even from bench? he doing great at U23.
It was frustrating back then because our academy wasn’t creating gems we’ve had in recent years. Wenger was playing ****ty young players sometimes which is just a waste of time (Djourou, Denilson, Sanogo, Jenkinson)
I said it for years at the time that we needed to change our model and start buying young promising players. Top tier young players. We had no identity towards the end, if you are gonna not buy the very best then at least buy the best young players, which back then was easier and cheaper to do as less clubs built their models around it. We could have stayed a bit more relevant had we done that, but I feel like we gave up after a while and just started pretending to be a big team.

I see what you’re saying but our money was limited, and the fans already weren’t happy with top 4, CL, last 16 of CL, FA Cup wins etc. Signing kids, even top kids is a long term project. Our fans wanted established talent even if it wasn’t WC, like Per, Poldi, Rosicky, Arteta, Monreal, Cech.
It’s tough on a budget. Arsenal fans had begun moaning because last 16 of CL wasn’t enough for them.
