No Saka or Martinelli due to injuries. A draw at best. :francis:
We’re about to get embarrassed breh. I’ve already chalked this up as a loss. Nketiah and Jesus starting together never works, Jorginho :mjlol:, no speed or power in the attack. Start Nelson to stretch the field or something!

I don’t know why he persists with Eddie. He’s an impact sub at best. He’s been forced to drop Havertz on the bench but he leaves Partey out of the XI and starts Jorginho? I’m trying hard to understand his logic.

I hope Partey’s on the bench because he’s not fully fit and not because Arteta is trying to be cute :francis:

Jorginho starting probably means Arteta believes the game is gonna be won in the midfield and he’s opted for recycling possession instead of a more direct approach. Could be peak if City play for the counter and bypass our midfield completely and/or target Jorginho for the press :snoop:

Partey is coming back from injury. You know from his time at Arsenal and his injury issues you have to built his fitness back up gradually. Is it really worth maybe 30mins of Partey from the start where there is a possibility of him breakdown again? Due to the intensity and pace of the match where its going to be at its highest.
