We either need to fly at them passing the ball quickly AND forward, or just sit deep and hit them on the break. If we just try and play our tippy-tappy way as usual we're fucked
Oxlade-Chamberlain has to start along with Rosicky. I would start Ozil and Podolski as well because they should be fired up for this game.
I can see the coward going with the 5 center mid abomination again which obviously worked so well against the mancs. Would be so typical of him, bloke is incapable of learning.
thank god Tets isnt available,hed get caught with the ball in no time tonight,i really hope pod starts,as mentioned him and ozil will be fired up,if we get just once chance tonight I bloody hope its pod it fall too

TONIGHT'S MATCH v BAYERN MUNICH - REMINDER
REDaction have been working with Arsenal to organise a card display for the Bayern game – covering the whole stadium with red and white cards. These are not cheap to organise, but they look fantastic when they work. The success depends on people being in their seats in good time before kickoff. Make sure you are in your seat by 7:35, ready to turn the stadium red and white when the players come onto the pitch.To help make the card display look as good as it can be, REDaction are asking everybody to do three things:
Get yourself into your seat by 7:35pm.
Remind all your friends, both in person and via social media, that they need to do the same!
When you leave the pub to get to the stadium, bring as many people with you as possible
Most people say they want a fantastic atmosphere in our stadium. Here is a great opportunity to achieve exactly that – but it needs YOU. Most of the action will be around the players coming out, and during the Champions League anthem. Keep hold of your cards, and re-use it if we score – when Bayern are taking the kickoff. This has been done at grounds in Europe and South America before, but would be a first for a ground in the UK.
Hope it goes well, but with the amount of people that turn up 10 minutes late it could go a little pear shaped
At the risk of sounding like a f-cking misery, this sort of thing leaves me cold. Why are we copying this continental shite?
Okay it may look spectacular but for how long? 30 seconds? A minute at the most I’d say!
And it doesn’t look quite so spectacular if you’re in the ground as the piece of card you're being made to hold up is blocking your view.
And how exactly does it generate atmosphere? When the game starts the cards with be crumpled up on the floor and getting walked all over (a bit like the team I expect ).
Waste of time and effort in my opinion. But not as bad as those cringe worthy clapper things that were inflicted on us a few years back.
I don't have a problem with a card display per se. But, I saw on Twittr earlier that Red Action also want the cards held up if/when we score! How in the name of God do they expect that to work? Don't celebrate, hold up a card instead Or celebrate, then hold them up when the game has restarted?
On a side note, how is this one allowed when M-50 tried and failed a while back?

agree
to get the best out of Ozil we need runners for him to pass those through balls too.
I would drop Giroud and play Ozil in the middle and a front three of Ox, Gnabry ,poldi
--flam, Jack--
---Ozil---
Ox, Gnabry, Poldi
play tippy tappy and well you know what will happen
