Who’d be in your Arsenal XI to take on Spurs tomorrow?

As we all know tomorrow afternoon is the north London derby, probably the biggest one in a very, very long time!

We currently sit fourth in the Premier League, 10 points behind the Spuds, and with what has happened over the past 11 days or so – receiving a thrashing in Milan and being knocked out of the FA Cup last Saturday to Sunderland – an Arsenal win at The Emirates is a must, not only for Arsene Wenger, not only for us (the fans), but more importantly for the players.

A win would not see us climb up the table, but the gap between us and the Spuds will be decreased. In addition, our morale will be high and should boost our team to go on and claim fourth place, maybe even third if lady luck shines on us.

However, a LOSS would be disastrous and detrimental to our chances of sealing a top four spot, especially with what has happened over the past few days. Our players will lose heart, fans will be p****d and Arsene Wenger will put under even more pressure from the media – it’s just unthinkable to even comprehend! A draw wouldn’t do us any good in my opinion – all 3 points must be bagged at The Emirates.

To ensure we come out victorious tomorrow afternoon and get our season back on track, here is who I think should start for us tomorrow:

Szczesny

Sagna          Koscielny          Vermaelen          Gibbs

Arteta          Song

Rosicky

Chamberlain                                        Gervinho

Van Persie

Back four and midfield three speaks for itself at this present time. The overrated Theo Walcott dropped for the promising Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Geo on the other side of RVP upfront. This is the team I would put out if I was Wenger tomorrow, as I feel it is our strongest and would get the job done.

Who do you guys reckon should start for us tomorrow against the Spuds?

  • Will says:

    Why play Chamberlain who can finish on the right and Gervinho who is afraid of the goal on the left?

  • doskijames says:

    they should rather play chamberlain on the left and gervinho on the right.

    Reasonable starting line up…. Gibbs is a weak link. Arteta has got to push forward/ create/ dribble and shoot. Big game. Come on u Gunners….

  • doskijames says:

    then our game against milan i think wenger should play two strikers cus we need goals. neva say neva we could record the greatest come back in champions league history.

  • doskijames says:

    yes i agree wit u @zac he has been keeping his game too simple. he plays like a defensive midfielder nw even song creates more than him. i miss fabregas and wilshere!!!!

    I rather play theo and geo, and bring on the ox, at the second half of the game, my reason is bcus, Rvp has scored most of his goals through theo, and 4 him to get a goal 2moro we definatly need theo to be @ his best, Arsenal winning this one 3-1 2moro, gunners 4 life

  • doskijames says:
