We just have to keep it tight at the back. No excuses. We have to frustrate them and look for the counter. I would say play both Xhaka and Coq as sort of a DM and deep lying midfielder combo. I would also like Ox to play just infront of them with Welbeck and Ozil just behind Sanchez. Sanchez and Welbeck interchanging.
Theo and/or Giroud could always come in the 2nd half.
My starting IX is
Ospina
Bellerin Mustafi Kos Gibbs
Coq Xhaka
OX
Welbeck/Theo Ozil
Sanchez
v Bayern......Go defensive

wow you're team is poor on paper looking at it like that.
I'd play giroud to hold the ball up, sanchez and welbeck to work for you and try and nick a goal.
Really think Arsenal can beat bayern this year.
Big night for your DM's

Park the team coach in front of the goal.

The thing is we don't practice to defend and thats wengers fault.

We spend as much time on defensive drills as anyone else. It's just that our defence is built on zonal marking and the offside trap.
You can tell by how quickly any new defensive signing adapts to our high line.

I think Bayern will score at the Emirates, which makes an away goal tonight crucial. I think a one goal defeat 2-1 and above rather than 1-0 I would settle for.

GT I think you can do it, don't think bayern are flying and you've gotta have learnt from previous years.

I like the sound of the OP's 11, only thing is I would leave Ozil out. Sanchez I think will be on point tonight but Ozil will only give it the lazy bottle job as usual. Genuinely don't think we can afford for the team to carry his lacklustre luxury attitude/approach tonight.
But that said, it is a fixture in Germany, he might just play his socks off to give his countrymen a show. Let's hope so because you just know Wenger won't drop him.

This is now or never for Arsenal. If we can't beat them now we wont beat them in the near future. Bayern a very beatable at the moment but only if our defense work. If we do the silly mistakes we've done recently we wont win in 180 min.
