So much for doing our talking on the pitch. Maybe we should try playing our football in the press conferences

"But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."

I was completely unaware until Monday/Tuesday of this week that Bayern are very much on the horizon.
At least we only have Hull this weekend so can rest players in preparation.
Hull City is more difficult than Bayern, imo. You know where you are with them, whereas Hull are capable of anything.

I am not comparing ease of victory my Anglo-French-German friend (you’re a bit of a mystery R, in a good way).
We are not going to win the Premiership, we all know that, even Arsene I suspect.
We could believe it or not win the CL and to do so we need to maximise our chances v Bayern, so we need our very best 11. Does that require resting some this weekend, perhaps not. They have had a week off in advance.
In a slight twist to your opening sentence I would suggest you need to be a better team to win the PL than you do to win the CL.
Leicester are much better than Real Madrid.
I just mean that the league games must always be paramount and we should allow the cup competitions to take care of themselves. The players and the club would probably disagree though mind.

I wonder if the manager knows what his best eleven is? I'm not sure it's even about the best eleven players, as about ones that play together as a team, which we have struggled to do for some time. We don't have a functioning midfield, we can't adapt quickly enough between zipping it around a mobile front three, or hoofing it up / whipping it in to the big lad (until desperation sets in at the end). Our first choice keeper is looking ropey. We don't have a proper backup RB and we miss Bellerin. Actually we do in Debuchy but he's never in the squad.
I know that average but lucky teams have won the CL in the past but I can't see this lot doing it. Their record against decent sides in recent years includes very few wins.
We should rest players v Bayern for the Sutton match - Munich is in turmoil. Uli and Karl-Heinz might have to get their boots on
