    ARS MUN combined XI if everyone was fit. It will be different in a few weeks or months once we've been able to assess more United options under ETH.

    Ramsdale
    Tomiyasu Saliba Gabriel Zinchenko
    Casemiro Partey
    Saka Odegaard Martinelli
    Jesus

    Maybe pop in one of Dalot, Xhaka or Eriksen over Tomi or Partey to do a little more attacking, but Zinchenko can go down the wing as well as the center, and Partey could maraud forward a little more than usual.

    What would yours be?

        Antony over Saka is bold, to say the least! I think Odegaard is more spritely and technical than Bruno. Good head on him too, like Saka.

        Ronaldo definitely wouldn't make it into the Arsenal team ahead of Jesus. I think he would make the team worse. Isn't getting in ahead of Rashford right now.

        Gabriel is the weakest spot, maybe, but he has still been very good for Arsenal. I don't think Varane on the left would be better than him, but willing to accept that others may disagree.

        Haven't seen many great games from Sancho and Dalot for a while. Maybe one or two this season? Tomi and Martinelli performing at a high level for a while now, regardless of the form of the team as a whole. Maybe I'll agree with you at Christmas time 🙂
