Will Arteta rotate heavily for this one? Share your team predictions below :point_down:

We will change the starting eleven substantially but because of the size of the squad, first teamers will end up seeing serious minutes. 4 1 win.

After lasts seasons embarrassment at the City Ground, I donโ€™t want to see any kids starting. Eddie is going to need to play.

I believe Brighton was the most heavy we rotated and we got punished for it(I think Arteta knew the risks with that).

I think itโ€™ll be similar to our EL games. 5-6 changes.
So expect a fair few of first team players to be involved.

Something like:
Turner
Tomiyasu-Holding-Gabriel-Tierney
Odegaard-Elneny-Xhaka
Vieira-Nketiah-Martinelli

I think ESR and Nelson may be involved if theyโ€™re available, same for Mudryk if the transfer happens soon.

Good news.

Wonderful news

We should rest all the first team players because of our lack of depth and having to play spurs, Man U and Man City in the next few games.

Our second team should easily be good enough to beat Oxford and itโ€™s an opportunity for fringe players to show Arteta what they can do.

Turner, Cedric, Holding, Tomiyasu, Tierney

Elneny, Lokonga

ESR, Fabio, Marquinhos

Eddie

Weโ€™ll probably go 90% full strength with Saka getting 90mins knowing Arteta

Substantially changing the team, especially when thereโ€™s no game for nearly a week either side of this fixture is not a typical Arteta move. Iโ€™m sure thereโ€™ll be a bit of rotation but he doesnโ€™t share Arsenal Twitterโ€™s obsession with resting players.

I always want us to win the greatest cup competition in the world and winning the league and cup double is something we excell at

Anyone know Oxford?
Looking for some hints and advice on possible places to park!

The all white kit returns

Presumably so itโ€™s only outing wasnโ€™t that shitshow at Forest last season.

Hope it doesnt havent the same effect on the pitch
We were awful last season in that game

Website has changed too

Although virtue signalling can be a hollow thing, I like too think issue it raises is really important subject.
Wonโ€™t solve the problem but itโ€™s good recognition.

Wasnโ€™t he supposed to start?

Now thereโ€™s an outside chance he gets involved?
