Unless he's injured it's disgusting Fuchs isn't starting.

Also don't see how Okazaki has kept his place.

[lgfualol]

Amazed Fuchs isn't even in the squad, especially because Simpson is. I thought Benalouane would be there too. 

 

Decent team but no chance of a clean sheet I think. Okazaki has to do well today.

[Carl the Llama]

Drinky & Kanté in the middle, nice.  Surprised Fuchs isn't even on the bench though.

[FireFox]

Simpson ahead of Benny and Fuchs, who both can play multiple positions, is disgusting.

Disgusting?

[lcfcsnow]

Surely we need Mahrez in the hole instead of Okazaki - who really needs to perform today unless it's in his contract that he plays.

Good luck Ritchie.

[filbertstreet]

why the flipping heck is simpson on the bench instead of fuchs

[foxfanazer]

Fuchs must be injured. Would've liked to have seen Ulloa in for Okazaki who has been largely a passenger for the past 3 or 4 games

From the looks of the bench, we are certainly going for it. I guess CR heard we have nothing to lose!

[SMX11]

Remember that said players played 120 minutes on tuesday night. Might be tired.

[Sunbury Fox]

COYB!

[Harry - LCFC]

Arsenal: Cech, Bellerin, Koscielny, Mertesacker, Monreal, Flamini, Cazorla, Ramsey, Ozil, Sanchez, Walcott

[Guest Sharpe's Fox]

Scumbag Simpson on the bench and no Fuchs

[Carl the Llama]

Remember that said players played 120 minutes on tuesday night. Might be tired.

Yeah I presume this is the main reason why there's no Fuchs, thought he'd be ok for the bench though.  Maybe he's pulled something.

[Dylster]

Is Dyer injured? 

[Carl the Llama]

Is Dyer injured? 

Yes.

[filbertstreet]

Is Dyer injured? 

yep, buggered his knee

Really surprised our leaky defence have kept all their positions since week 1

[Jordan]

I'll assume Fuchs is exhausted and Ulloa isn't fit for a full 90 to give Ranieri the benefit of the doubt.

Okazaki will play in the Nugent role. I think it will look more like a 4-4-1-1.

I'm really glad Kanté gets a start as a proper CM.

[Crinklyfox]

If the Capital One matches are to be used to let players who are not currently starting on Saturday show what they can do, there must be a few disappointed squad members right now.  Tired on Tuesday should still be good for half an hour as a sub four days later.
