Dugout Discussion – Everton vs Arsenal

23 August 2014 2390 comments

Mark

Saturday’s schedule concludes with the headline act. Arsenal make the trip to Goodison Park looking to build on the stuttering 2-1 win over Crystal Palace on the opening day. The Toffees meanwhile, will also be looking to improve on their first showing, having been pegged back to 2-2 by newly promoted Leicester a week ago.

Arsene Wenger rings the changes with a few surprises. He welcomes back two of his German contingent as Mesut Ozil and Per Mertesacker return to the starting lineup. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain also starts, while Nacho Monreal comes in for Kieran Gibbs at the back. Santi Cazorla and Laurent Koscielney drop to the bench, with Calum Chambers retaining his start at the back. Olivier Giroud again starts from the bench with Alexis Sanchez set to be fielded in a central attacking role.

Roberto Martinez also tweaks his lineup with Seamus Coleman and Kevin Mirallas drafted in – John Stones and Aiden McGeady make way.

Arsenal look better with Giroud out there.

Best 4.5 mid in your opinion?

I quite like the look of Leicester's King who plays in the Arteta role getting forward for assists as far as I can tell (read not seen). Planning to switch Eriksen for him and Dzeko for Aguero depending on tomorrow's games...

Not sure what to do regarding man city. They could score a fair few next week agaisnt stoke but don't fancy them for a few more weeks. Think I may hold off on city coverage until after the cheslea game. Gives me a chance to sort the rest of my team out as well. Hopefully then I can go costa to aguero.
