Midfield:
Either of Mikel Arteta or Mathieu Flamini should start alongside Jack Wilshere in the central midfield just ahead of the back four. I would have certainly preferred Flamini thanks to his immaculate defensive and screening duties ahead of Arteta’s recklessness but it’s a decision for Wenger to make. However, Mesut Ozil should certainly be benched following his disastrous show against Bayern and the former Real Madrid player deserves some rest as his price tag is constantly bogging him down. Ozil looks a shadow of his former self who was lethal at Real and should be dropped instead, playing Cazorla in the no 10 role. Rosicky is expected to draft on the left while Arsenal’s best player at the moment, Oxlade Chamberlain should play out on the right. This triumvirate should be looking to pull defenders out of position and make space for the lone striker up front.
