Arsenal starting XI what do you think?

To stay in the top four? Definetly, if RvP stays fit then he could get around 30 premier league goals and Gervinho also gets a lot of assists and goals.

I would rather Walcott or Arshavin in the team than Nasri though, i just think they can offer more to the team as a whole, Nasri could be a good impact player.

I reckon Fabianski will be preferred over Szczesny.

If Arshavin is right and we have worked on our set piece defending then there is no reason why that team cannot put up a serious challenge for the title..... Vermaelen will be like a new signing and hopefully Gibbs knows how to play the offside trap better than Clichy.

How can you leave out Walcott? Gervinho isn't a proven Premier League and will take time to settle in. Not sure what's happening with the Fabregas saga whether he is leaving or not, if he is then put Nasri in his role or put Walcott up front with Van Persie behind him which would be a great combination.

Assuming Samba joins and Nasri and Fabregas stays,here's what the line-up will look like(4-4-2):

GK:Szczesny

CB:Samba

CB:Vermaelen

RB:Sagna

LB:Gibbs

CM:Alex Song

CM:Wilshire

RM:Gervinho

LM:Nasri

ST:Van Persie

ST:Walcott

Substitutes:

Fabianski/Mannone(if he returns from injury)

Koscielny

Djourou

Fabregas

Arshavin

Vela

Chamakh

It'd be an outright battle between Arsenal,Liverpool,Tottenham and Sunderland for top 4.

Top 4? Yes. Liverpool have totally spurned their opportunity with their wasteful transfer dealings.

This team still wont win anything and will still be mediocre in Europe, though.

Yes.

Assuming they both stay.

Which is really unlikely

Your assuming they will have Cesc

reading the beano and dandy.
