So onto Wednesday and United, only a couple of days rest, that can be a factor if you let it.

Will be another big step for Emery and the team.

United clearly not in a good place so let's hope no complacency sets in like it did against Wolves as Mourinho will be all over that.

Has to be a point at the absolute minimum. No Xhaka as he is suspended. Will no doubt mean Guendouzi starts. Did Aaron do enough to keep his place, he currently has most assists in Premier League.

Will Lacazette be fit enough for the full 90, no doubt another big test we have failed so many times in previous seasons.

Agree Stoner, Gouendouzi and torreira are a tasty pair and the future of arsenal. 3 at the back suits our central defenders and it also suits Bellerin and kol. We need battlers on Wednesday against the gourillas in the utd team, the shape is better for us, i hope he can play it. Utd are dross at the moment but are still capable of beating most teams on a given day.

Guendouzi in and 3 4 1 2 formation with Ramsey playing his most suited position in place of Mesut behind Lacasette and Pea.
To be that's our best current 11 simply because Mesut ain't right for whatever reason.

Agree with both of you, we definitely don’t need anyone coasting in this fixture.

It will mean our bench isn’t as strong but hey, can’t have everything.

I hope Mustafi is fit for Wednesday as three at the back gives us a more solid look. Yes, Guendouzi in for suspended Xhaka. Assuming we play 3-4-3, which three should we start with up front? Ramsey, Lacazette and Aubameyang?
I am not keen on Mkhitaryan, but perhaps Iwobi will start again in place of Ramsey?
I believe United will turn up against up, which is irritating as they have been noticeably absent recently.
It's interesting, I only thought of Ozil as an afterthought.

Yes gunner, I'd plumb for a 352 of sorts. I would like to think myki had a point to prove and played off the strikers, he could be effective. I do think our front 2 or 3 need to really get at utd because they can really hurt them. We always in the past few years seem to make heavy weather at OT. We need to be more up for this and punish their staleness.

If Jose can't get his United team up for a Man utd v Arsenal game then they are a seriously bad condition.
Because of embarrassing past experiences at the hands of both United and Mourinho over the last decade or so most of us can only manage to be cautiously optimistic but should we get 3pts Wednesday then the United fans patience will be tested to an all new limit under Jose.
For Jose it's a must not lose game regardless of how good or bad they play, they can't get away with defeat at home to the team they have been so used to humiliating so often in recent years.
