Predict Arsenal Starting vs. Sunderland for the weekend

A must win game, it has been a long a 2 weeks, we must get back to the winning ways and win this game. IMO if we don't get a good result at home, someone will get fired . With this line up we should win the game, Sunderland is a tough team, but we should punish them for singing Bendtner.

---------------------Szczesny--------------------
--Carl or Santos---Mertesacker---Koscielny-- Gibbs
----------------------Song------------------------
Walcott-------Rosicky-------Arteta-----------Gervinho

-------------------Van Persie--------------------

Tempted to go with this formation but too many players are off form in that team eg Walcott, Gervinho, Rosicky

Carl will be RB.... Wenger said so.... according to Wenger it's Sagna, Carl, Kos then Coq (Wenger thinks he isn't good for that position)

i would like chamberlain and walcott to start, gervinho/arshavin could be used just behind rvp.gervinho rarely tracks back so its ok if we play him upfront.

I was thinking about Chamberlain also, but I dont want us to rush him unless we have no choice.

I did not pick Ramsey to show him he must earn that spot for now and when Jack or who ever we do sign in the future.

Every game is must win

that's life when you in a relegation battle

I really don't understand the hate at Ramsey sure his passing has been off and times but he has made more chances for our forwards than Arteta has.
Rosicky does not have the same influence on the game, Ramsey can score and assist from midfield something Rosicky has not been doing.

Feel bad for Lansbury he could of made a push for Ramsey's spot, would of been a much more balanced three too Arteta, Lansbury and Song.

There is no hate to Ramsey, I just want him to fight for his spot, its sad that his competition is Rosicky lol. I do agree Lasbury would have been a perfect for us at this moment and get his chance to shine.

Given our awful start, at this point I want to see us experimenting with different lineups. I'd like to see Arshavin in a more central creative position, and maybe play 2 strikers with Park and Chamakh both featuring at one point or another accompanying RvP. Rosicky was also good during the international break. I wouldn't mind a straight 4-4-2 either. That all being said, I expect the following lineup:
---------------------Szczesny--------------------
Jenkinson--Mertesacker---Koscielny-- Gibbs
-----------------Song-----Arteta-------------------
Walcott------------Ramsey------------Gervinho
-------------------van Persie--------------------

99% this would be our line up, unless something happens form today till Sunday.

I think it would be interesting to swap Ramsey and Arteta... Arteta is more creative, however he's so good at picking out the final position from a deeper spot... But, Ramsey looked lost and confused in the Tottenham game playing further up the pitch. idk, would be interesting to see how Arteta operates further up the pitch

Jenkinson-Mertesacker-Vermaelen-Gibbs
Song
Ramsey-Arteta
Walcott-RVP-The Forehead

Unfortunately AW will start Ramsey in AM position instead of Arteta (most likely)

its sad to see chamberlain on the bench, this inform player needs to start over ramsey.

Chamberlain's form> Arshavin's form.

he will get his chance....you don't want him to play too much games at such a young age and suffer burn out.

Agreed. He is already in the news about playing for England for Euros.

Bendtner will score.

He cant play, he wanted to play against us.

Play Van Persie in the hole and Park up top. I know it would never happen, but for someone who can't prevent himself from scoring for his country against all kinds of oppositions, he needs to play NOW. RVP and PArk are both 6 foot plus!!!

you and I both. The guy breezes through international games and scores. Yet, rumour has it, that he isn't "settled/fit". If he doesn't at least make the squad for sunday, I'll be very pissed!

Park should be at least on the bench if not starting. He is great players and scorer. I hope wenger can switch up the formation and put Park up front.
