There are a few shocks to the Arsenal teamsheet for today’s home tie with Crystal Palace, with a chance to go back into third in the Premier League table.
My eyes hurt at the site of seeing Shkodran Mustafi back in the side today, along with Carl Jenkinson and Mohamed Elneny, but you accept that changes had to be made after playing on Thursday.
Aaron Ramsey is a huge loss to injury, leaving us a little short on numbers, but playing without Torreira is a painful choice, one which I hope doesn’t backfire…
Everton are doing us a favour by smashing United and giving us leeway in the bid for the top four, but we are still far from cemented in the top four, although winning all our remaining games will see us there.
This team hardly fills me with confidence, but we have players on the bench who can boost us if things are tight.
Does this team have enough in them to win comfortably? Is anyone else cursing Thursday night football for not only taking Ramsey, but forcing so many first-team changes?
