Pepe Aubameyang Lacazette
Pretty much most people’s first choice midfield and attack, I would imagine.
Although I’m wondering whether Emery might go with Guendouzi over Willock for this one (I can see Torreira having to spend a lot of time covering fullbacks with Kola and AMN in the side, so he might want one of the other CMs to stay camped in front of the CBs)?
Hope we finally get to see PAL, but I worry that Nketiah going out on loan might make Emery think twice about playing all 3 of our forwards in every game, with no one rested as cover? Hopefully we’ll still see it in important games like this one though...
I think that Guendouzi has done well enough so far for me to to be too dismayed were he included.....but I'd rather not see the diamond stuff we saw at Liverpool (though I actually got what he was trying to do in that game).
It wouldn't be too popular and he absolutely won't do it, but if he played Torreira, Ceballos, Ozil I wouldn't be unhappy neither.
Your last point is one of the reasons I thought it was a shame to lose Iwobi.
