Everton v Arsenal Wednesday 28th November 19:45

[fakeyank]

could this be the first game since about ten years ago when we actually have our strongest team out on field?

chesney
sagna merts kos gibbs
arteta jack
cazorla
theo giroud podolski

with vermaelen, arshavin, chamberlain, jenkinson, mannone, coqualain, ramsey on the bench

barring rosicky and diaby that has to be our strongest squad. thats our first team right there all fit, only issue is which defender do you play and who drops to bench but that really is our full strength team. cant think of a time when that has happend recently, as always had, jack, vermalen or rvp out injured

That is our strongest team. Rosicky and Diaby have never played for Arsenal so no real need to mention them.

The more interesting part is... what will be our excuse this time? 2 hard away games within 5 days?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Don't think its been that long.

Since 2004 probably. Granted we've sold a lot of players which makes a difference to that.

[Marc Overmars]

When I look at that first choice 11, I find it hard to understand why we can't compete for the title.

Sort it out Wenget.

Injuries, not enough Squad depth.

True.

[Marc Overmars]

Injuries, not enough Squad depth.

Everyone has to deal with injuries to be fair, United have their defence decimated every season but still get by.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

True, but they also have players who can come in a do a job, we don't have many if any at all.

[Ollie the Optimist]

Don't think its been that long.

was being sarcastic

people on twitter were saying the last time we had a full strength team out, no injuries to worry about etc was august 2010

[Cripps_orig]

Vermaelen over Calamity Kos all the time. That's our strongest line up. Rosicky over Arteta as well.

Except city with their 3 billion quid players per position.
