Newcastle v Arsenal

There’s a chance luiz and ceballos might not play. Ceballos has a knock, and luiz probably only have 1 training session with us. Could easily be AMN chambers sokratis monreal at the back.

Is Torreira good to play? He was late back. Also chance Pépé might not play, I’d hope we put him on the bench at least though

Luiz should be okay. You dont need to train with someone to be better partner than Mustafi...

Until things improve we have one of the worst defences going

Yeah luiz should be fine fitness wise. Just wouldn’t be surprised if he’s not starting because emery may think he’s not had enough time learning our system and tactics etc. But yeah, even with no knowledge of our team at all he’d be a better option than mustafi

Honestly struggling to call the team. I don't even know what I want it to be at the minute. We're pretty unbalanced, especially on the right handside.

Last 3-4 years or so we seem to have had so many players unavailable for our 1st game of the season.

Add Kola and Ozil to that list

Going into today's game without

Kolasinac
Ozil
Bellerin
Tierney

Then you have the following who are probably not going to play

Pepe
Lacazette

Ceballos is a doubt as well think he missed 2 days of training. Torreira and guen haven’t been back long. So seems unlikely we’ll have a very sharp and fluid display

Willock and Nelson are fit and ready
