Starting XI: Raya; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Tomiyasu; Rice, Jorginho, Odegaard; Saka, Havertz, Jesus
Subs: Ramsdale, Hein, Kiwior, Zinchenko, Elneny, Partey, Smith Rowe, Vieira, Trossard, Nketiah, Nelson, Martinelli
I've continually said for the past two years that jesus is the cone boy's man - it is the reason why we didnt buy a striker last summer cos he wants him in his team all the time

Thank fuck that no matter how much Arteta "loves Alex" that he's dropped him for this game.

That's a decent starting XI and as much as I think Trossard is a match winner, him and Jesus off the bench if needed could be the difference.

I like kimmich as a footballer, but as a full back he can def be got at by martinelli's pace IF we release him early
