Not sure if Wenger will have the balls to do it considering each player's respective forms at the moment, but I'd love to see Theo start up top and Giroud benched for this so that we can exploit the slowness of Ivanovic, Cahill and Terry.
If Giroud start's, they'll probably hold a deep line and crowd Giroud out in the box just like last year.
Yeah, they really can't handle runners. If Bif starts, you ideally want Alexis and Campbell either side of him, as Theo offers so little on the left. If Alexis was fully fit, we could blitz them with Theo and Alexis from the off. I'd be fully confident of beating them then.
We really need a functioning midfield though, to ensure we're on the front foot. Otherwise, they'll get comfortable and we'll play into their hands.
With Leicester and Spurs winning today, this is a MUST win.
So 1-1.
Measure for measure when you're in the title race.
