Arsene Wenger fielded weakened team against ut, by half-time, we bet most fans were wishing that there was a full strength team on the pitch as the hosts endured a nightmare 45 minutes at the Emirates Stadium.
Two goals in as many minutes for the unfancied Ostersund gave Arsenal quite the scare, with it all to play for in the second half.
Wenger confirmed Alexandre Lacazette is recovering well from his knee injury and could return within four weeks, while Ramsey will be monitored ahead of a decision over whether he plays in Sunday’s EFL Cup final.
In his press conference on Thursday, Arsene Wenger reveald that David Ospina will start for the League Cup final on Sunday.
The Col0mbian will be aiming to shut out high flying Manchester City to seal Arsene Wenger’s first League Cup winner since taking charge at the Emirates.
Ospina will aiming to stop Pep Gauriola’s side who have a remarkable 73 times this season.
And it’s Ospina who Arsenal fans appear most concerned about starting.
Take a look at what they’ve had to say on Twitter…
If ospina plays on sunday..forget thatt trophy. P

Ospina? What are you doing for the first goal? This clown will be starting Sunday as well. How many massive errors does he need to make before he’s shafted.. Iwobi? I’ve seen better players in League 1. Chambers comical.
