Very attacking. No Lokonga.

Niles Midfield experiment all already over lol. Is this formation a 4-3-3? Or 4-1-4-1?
He played last week because Partey wasnāt fit to start. Not really an experiment.

Burnley are going to āget stuck inā and āin our facesā today. Translation: kick seven shades of shit out of our players and use the home crowd influence to stop the ref from sending any of their players off.
This is going to be a battle and to be quite frank, I donāt see us standing up to the challenge.
Wow. Very surprised with that. I wanted to write a while ago, thatās how Guardiola whould line up this squad if he was the manager, but never thought Arteta would play like that.
Should be very interesting to see basically all of our best attackers together on the pitch from the first minute.

Probably our best XI when playing against weaker opposition. Happy with that.

Interestingā¦
Will Ode and ESR do enough in the defensive third or defensive transitions?
Partey - Ode
Pepe - ESR - Saka
Auba
So youāre saying itās Partey time?

I love this midfield but Iām a little worried we run Partey into the ground, heās essentially a lone anchor out there and thatās a lot of leg work to get through.
Hopefully we have more of the ball though and it takes the strain off him. Canāt fault the attacking ambition from the formation though, time to take the hand brake off.

Maybe weāll see Ćdegaard as a mini anchor alongside him?
Nice line up, very positive.
In fairness to Odegaard at 8 he does put a shift in, heās like Santi where obviously heās a creative type but isnāt scared of the leg work. Could be interesting set up this.
Or complete shite, you just never know with this Arsenal. Hopium flowing through my veins right now though

Hopefully they donāt let us down today.

Attacking lineup, assuming Odegaard and ESR will have to drop deeper at times.

If our attack canāt look respectable with this line up this coach is truly a lost cause.
