Wenger Makes 1 Change: Predicted Arsenal Starting XI To Face Man City

“We had many players on the flanks, but Sterling was at QPR – that’s where we should take the players”, Wenger said, via Sky Sports.

“He is still not available because of a bone bruising”, Wenger said.

City winger Jesús Navas has found himself with more minutes on the pitch of late as City navigate their way through a spate of injuries, but the Spanish wide man has yet to register a goal this campaign, and has spoken of his desire to contribute more.

“And we are the only team who has beaten Leicester basically, and in a convincing way”.

“Sometimes it comes to my mind that it makes me just think that I missed him when he was at Rennes, and how that could have changed for us if we had signed him in that period”. “It’s important to try to be the best team from the first round, to play against a team with one point more”.

So will Kos the boss give Arsenal the edge in the game against Man City and help us to take charge of the EPL title race?

This means that the onus is on Mesut Ozil and Olivier Giroud to provide the attacking spark for the Gunners as they have been doing for the past few games.

“Tottenham can be involved, so can Liverpool and Crystal Palace”.

Redknapp told The Telegraph: “I put a bet on Arsenal to win the league before the season started and felt stupid when they lost to West Ham on the opening day, but they’ve recovered and look good”.

There is no confusion over Silva’s name nowadays, however, after two Premier League titles and a catalogue of mesmeric performances for the club.

“We have to play five of the next six away. Playing away is always a bit more hard”.

For City, well Toure has been average, David Silva is struggling to get his fitness back and I imagine Sergio Aguero will be eager to start and I think that might be a positive because Wilfried Bony is hungry and has caused Arsenal problems in the past.

“Two years ago when we won the league, I played for months with pain and had to have injections”.

“It was a needed step for our team”, he said. But it will decide nothing because neither team has been consistent enough.

Third-placed Manchester City are now regarded as the biggest threat to Arsenal’s tilt at their first title since 2004.

Arsenal meanwhile have hit their stride again after a slump in form with wins over relegation battling sides Sunderland and Aston Villa. “You can use the experience to keep on winning”.

“He (Ospina) was exceptional past year”.

“I have to look after them because both of them have been damaged over the years in football, but when you get on the pitch, you don’t think something might or might not happen”, he added.

The Gunners are in the midst of an injury crisis at this crucial stage of the season, but they have been boosted as the likes of Aaron Ramsey, Theo Walcott and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain have returned in recent weeks.
