Arsenal Football Formation

Lineup (4-2-3-1)

With Sagna out, it seems likely Jenkinson will get the nod regardless of how willing Koscielny is to play at right back (the latter is our first choice fit centre half right now). I think Gibbs will be called before Santos at left back, since this is a league game and we need to be solid without taking too many risks in order to get a couple of wins behind us.

Ramsey is getting a lot of time, which is good for his development, but he's not quite up to it yet and has consistently been our weakest player in midfield when he starts. I don't know what other options Wenger would use in place of him at the moment. Rosicky is out of form, and the Ox is being tried on the flanks before be takes a more central role.

Our attackers should be pretty standard by now. RvP up front with Gervinho and Walcott on the sides. There's some incredible pace here, but we've not had the creative element in midfield to make much come of it.
