      I think we'll go stronger than that with it being a semi final. I don't see more than a couple of kids playing (Williams and Morton) I don't think both Gomez and Phillips will start I can see it being one of them plus Konate. Fullbacks I agree TAA will be rested and Robbo could do with games.

      Midfield is complicated by the lack of available forwards. Salah and Mane are away at ACN, Firmino has Covid so won't be available. I think we would have gone with a front 3 of Jota, Origi and Minamino if they are all fit, but Origi and Minamino are probably doubtful.My guess would be Ox and Jones would be the two midfielders who could cover up front. Possibly Gordon could come in there too.

      Midfield I think will be Morton plus a couple of the senior guys with a fair bit of rotation perhaps 45 mins each for a couple of guys.
      The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

        I think either:

        Kelleher
        Williams
        Gomez
        Konate
        Robertson
        Morton
        Jones
        Ox
        Minamino
        Jota
        Origi
        Or

        Kelleher
        Williams
        Gomez
        Konate
        Robertson
        Morton
        Henderson/Milner
        Jones
        Ox
        Jota
        Gordon
        The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

          I think an issue for the front 3 is, bearing in mind we have so few fit, do we save them for the league (and thus give up on scoring goals in this game), or use the strongest line up we have in this game and hope they will stay fit for the league matches too. I don't want to be knocked out at this stage by Arsenal, so I'd do the former if the result is a credible forward line - otherwise I'd give up on the Carabao and rest all first 11 players. .

            I believe Robbo is suspended for 1 more game

              Dont think so. 2 against Leicester and the Chelsea game.

              He'd have been back yesterday if the Leeds game wasn't postponed

                    Agreed, focus on these two legs and Shrewsbury. Screw the Brentford game, if we drop points there its no great threat to our top four position.

                    Kell
                    TAA
                    Gomez
                    Konate
                    Robbo
                    Keita
                    Ox
                    Fab
                    Morton
                    Jota
                    Minamino

                    And in the second leg, bring in Thiago, Hendo, Firmino and Alison to really test Arsenal's priority for a top four challenge with their league game on the weekend.
                    One tit for another.

                          Strong team for the two semis and a mix of experience and younger players for the game against Shrewsbury, please.
                          I don't hate people. I just feel better when they aren't around.
