So the Arsenal squad for today has no Sczesny, koser, ramsey, sagna, ozil, wilshere, gibbs, giroud.

key players we need for saturday at what will be a difficult fixture away at swansea.

looks like per and verm will start at the back with Nacho and Jenks on the wing, flamini and Arteta to hold the fort to make the back solid.

while Eisfeld, Gnabry and Ryo take to the middle with

TGSTEL to lead the line.

im glad we have rested the key players. the amount of injuries we have is just unimaginable at this moment in time.

Theo, Poldi, Cazorla, Ox. we are not lacking at the back, merely lacking on the sides. let's hope we can survive at swansea.

today will be difficult. i'm hoping they see the squad we put out and match us with similar type of players and not first team.

They play Manchester United away on saturday so I hope they rest the big boys for that game and enable us to have an even field. otherwise they will be bullying the likes of Ryo and gnabry. even eisfeld

We have finished 4th for years with NO silverware, why do you think we will suddenly win both domestic cups, just look at the strength of M City and Chelsea ' reserve' sides

Is there something wrong with me that I knew immediately who TGSTEL is?

I did not even know he was match fit after the 2 season holiday he has been on. let's hope he proves most of us wrong

No one has a divine right to win. everyone competes.

we cannot field our best players every game, and we can only hope that our form enables us to go through the hard times with injuries and come out the other side looking better.

we have been reinvigorated by the arrival of ozil, and that should be used to our advantage.

Yes chelsea and City have better squads compared to us, and United and spurs have more depth too, but when you take to the pitch it is 11 v 11.

i agree with wenger's selections and if we are in contention for some silverware by December, I can assure you wenger will buy a key player to reinvigorate us for the last few months, and perhaps win us a trophy.

nothing is guaranteed. its just pure faith and belief. its what every fan of every club thinks. this is football.

TGSTEL = the greatest striker that ever lived?
