Pepe will not play against Barcelona but Torreira may feature

Arsenal has named their 21 man travelling squad for tonight’s game against Barcelona at the Nou Camp.

Nicolas Pepe has not been included and neither has Alexandre Lacazette but Lucas Torreira is back following his break after international duty.

Another player that is absent is Alex Iwobi and of course Rob Holding who played with the U23 team yesterday.

Anyway, here is the travelling squad.

Leno
Martinez
Maitland-Niles
Chambers
Sokratis
Mustafi
Monreal
Kolasinac
Thompson
Ceballos
Guendouzi
Torreira
Xhaka
Willock
Mkhitaryan
Nelson
Ozil
Martinelli
Saka
Aubameyang
Nketiah

It is a little frustrating that we do not get to see Pepe in action, I cannot think of any real reason why he has not been included unless he is injured.

This game will not tell us much to be honest with so many significant players missing but any game against Barcelona is always worth a watch.

As usual, the game is live on pay-TV channel Premier Sports which means that despite this game being just a friendly that fans will have to splash out for an unnecessary subscription.

Once the team has officially been announced we will post it up and of course, we will provide links in the comments section where one can watch the game without being fleeced once again.
