Aubameyang starts again as Arteta shuffles the Arsenal attack

1,089 Comments

Owners of popular Double Gameweek 30+ asset Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£11.1m) will be pleased with Arsenal’s latest line-up.

Despite playing 90 minutes in the 3-0 defeat at Manchester City on Wednesday night, the Gunners’ number 14 has been handed another start on Saturday afternoon.

Outside of Aubameyang, Mikel Arteta has certainly shuffled the pack for the trip to Brighton, including Alexandre Lacazette (£9.4m) up-front and dropping Eddie Nketiah (£4.4m) to the bench.

It is possible that the Frenchman could be paired with Aubameyang in a front-two, although the personnel chosen by Arteta could also line-up in a 4-2-3-1.

Nicolas Pépé (£9.3m) returns to the side to operate on the right-hand side of midfield, while Bukayo Saka (£4.7m), making a second start in the space of a week, could either play on the left of midfield or as the number 10.

Rob Holding (£4.4m) comes in for the injured Pablo Mari (£4.8m) and suspended David Luiz (£5.7m), while Sead Kolasinac (£5.2m) replaces the benched Kieran Tierney (£5.3m).

Meanwhile, Mesut Özil (£7.3m) still cannot get into the starting line-up, although was, at least, included on the bench this time.

Brighton manager Graham Potter has gone with a 4-3-3 shape with a largely unsurprising selection.

Neal Maupay (£5.7m) spearheads the attacking trio, flanked by Leandro Trossard (£5.8m) and Pascal Groß (£6.2m).

Budget option Aaron Mooy (£4.8m) may be one to watch given his pre-lockdown form. He is in the central midfield trio with Davy Pröpper (£4.8m) and Yves Bissouma (£5.0m).

Brighton and Hove Albion XI: Ryan; Burn, Webster, Dunk, Schelotto; Pröpper, Bissouma, Mooy; Trossard, Maupay, Groß.

Arsenal XI: Leno; Kolasinac, Holding, Mustafi, Bellerín; Saka, Ceballos, Guendouzi, Pépé; Aubameyang, Lacazette.

      Why so? The wildcard is surely based on:

      GK: Pope, Button / Martin
      DF: TAA, Doherty, Lundstram, Lascelles

          Not saying go 4-3-3. But saying that most WC drafts on this site will continue to have 9+ of those players.

          Are people really going big on Leicester with their fixtures and form?

          Will watch Wolves later today, but if they do well then surely it is Man Utd, Wolves, Man City, Liverpool, Son and a sprinkle of Pope and Sheff Utd all the way?

Was impressed by Demarai Gray when he came in for Barnes (who I thought was subdued). Worth swapping? Other changes you would suggest? Thanks.
