based on the squad for tonight I reckon the team could be:

Fabianski
Yennaris
Vermaelen (c) playing at left back?
Squillachi
Miquel
Frimpong
Coquelin
The Ox
Benayoun
Ryo
Park

Did you come up with that yourself or just typing out one of the many 'in the know' predictions from certain bloggers?

Yeah Jamie Sanderson from Youngguns. He usually gets stuff pretty accurate so I'd say his lineup he published is going to be the one for tonight.

Interesting to see Yennaris at right back.
With Sagna and Jenkinson injured, he could be needed if anything happens to Djourou.

just a bit concerned that with Arshavin starting we won't really have anyone to come on towards the end of the game to win it for us if required.

mind you even if Chamakh was on the bench it probably wouldn't make much difference. most important tonight - that Park scores and makes sure of the number 2 striker position

Fantastic - just had a call from a season ticket holder who actually bought his own seat and now can't be arsed to go. FFS.....£10 and people can't be arsed.

Thanks for that though.....I'll take the freebie to add to the Swansea, Bolton, Sunderland and Stoke ones.

As long as 40,000 odd folk keeping funding Kroenke Enterprises a year in advance every Summer, I'm almost guaranteed a seat for every match :D

Koscienly will move there when Vermaelen returns, I'm sure of it, both Wenger and Koscienly have already been vocal about him playing there in the past and being able to do it.

Djourou is a stop gap, no way will Koscienly sit on the bench when Vermaelen is back in favour of Djourou or some kid from the youth team.

if Vermaelen plays on Sunday alongside Koascielny, Mertesacker and Santos we may have a chance on Sunday
