SHOULD THEO START?????

you weren't sitting where I was! his dive was dreadful, again!
Are you talking about the incident in the second half? I thought it was awful in the ground at the time, but the replays show him being fouled.

I would start with Eboue on the right and Theo on the left - anyone but Diaby out there right now.
The very same - I did not see a replay but will take your word for it!

agree with burns.. Theo is better coming on as a sub.

I dont mind Eboue.. aslong as he is not been a clown.

I'd start Theo.

I dont think anyone can argue that he's performances in the last 2 games have been very good. Especially when you consider how the team as a whole have been playing.

Eboue, pack your backs son.

id start walcot on the wing, and ebue also on the midfield. with a lone striker 4:2:3:1 formation

Lehman

Gallas O dear
Sagna Clichy
Ebue Flamini
Fabregas
Walcot Hleb
Adebayor


With posible change to 4 4 2 with bendtener as sub of ebue, and playing with croses which could tea us to a leate lead when the milan old players get tired and cant jump.

I'd start theo up top but I dont see it happening to be honest. I think wenger will stick hleb on the left, eboue on the right and I know I am the only person thinking this but I fear wenger will play gilberto in a midfield 3. Did you all know that in 14 champs lge games for us ade has failed to score a single goal :?: That is one worrying statistic in a game that we need to score at least 1 goal in

I wouldn't start Walcott against Wigan, let alone AC Milan.

He's failed to make an impact in nearly every game he's played for the club, and I can't see that changing against a team with the quality of Milan.

If he's allowed anywhere near this game, then it's basically Champions League suicide.

Depends who you are, if you are Cashley then I don't think it is scary :lol:

Augie, I knew that statistic but I wouldn't concentrate on it too much. He was so close in the first leg.
