Would be very surprised if either of them started against Chelsea if I'm honest, we all know how conservative Arsène has become in recent years. I suspect he thinks Xhaka/Elneny are too inexperienced within the league/team to start as a pair against top opposition (plus not sure how good Mo's English is?) and he'll revert to the Coqzorla safety net.  I think it will be the same XI as Hull.

 

We will probably see more of Xhaka when Ramsey is back as in theory that's a nice pairing.

Good article on Wenger, breaking down his 20 years in charge, in to different phases. Briefly looking back on his time overall, the things that stand out most for me, are that he undoubtedly should have won more league titles (five at least) and that I think time will be much kinder to him over the period of our move to the Emirates and keeping us in the CL each season. It was a frustrating period at the time, coming from the invincibles and how amazing that was, but to achieve what he did with the limited finances at the time (and some of the dross we had in the squad), was a remarkable achievement under the circumstances.

Gents, what's are the best options for buying match tickets? Looking at Middlesborough on the 22nd in particular. I'm coming to London for my stag and looking to see my first live game. I have the Red membership but there are only tickets on ticket exchange available now.

ticket exchange is usually a decent option if you look in the week running up to the match, especially for a cat C game like Boro, lot of people will chuck back tix in the run up to the game. Plus you only pay face value for them.

 

always see plenty of touts around the Arsenal tube station and burger stalls quite openly plying their trade, but obviously you'll pay over the odds and not guaranteed

that was as good a team performance as you can ask for, Chelsea are not the shambles they were last season, they also had a mental hold over us.

 

It's testament to Arsene how he's transformed the squad, when Coquelin went off and Xhaka came on we didn't miss a beat, Mustafi has slotted in alongside Kos and they look like they have played together since the youth team.

 

We look hungry this season, I love it.
