Arsenal may have put in a convincing display against AC Milan on Thursday but will a tired team return to their shambolic worst against Watford?
Arsene Wenger has a big choice to make on Sunday. He either rotates and saves his strongest starting XI for the second leg of Arsenal’s Europa League clash against AC Milan, or he recognises that every Premier League match is a must-win now and fields the same side.
It’s a tough choice to make but it’s all part of being a football manager.
Monreal is still out for the match against Watford, as is Bellerin, and Kolasinac is a doubt.
Obviously, Alexandre Lacazette is still sidelined after undergoing knee surgery last month.
How will the team line-up on Sunday?
Forwards
Like the midfield, Wenger has to field his strongest attacking line-up against the Hornets.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang wasn’t eligible top feature against Milan but is obviously available for the Premier League. There’s no way he won’t start.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan scored his first goal for Arsenal in the European clash so I don’t see him being dropped and Mesut Ozil is… Mesut Ozil.
