He tends to sit back behind the attack & appears to be positionally aware, so he shouldn't have to cover as much ground as Coq.
I'm not drunk enough to purchase a jersey yet but my current thought process is 1. Koscielny 2. Nacho 3. Mustafi. Have Ozil, Cazorla, and Alexis so they're out until Ozil gets his proper number. Not sure it continues but Koscielny is playing like the best defender in the world right now(no hyperbole)
Have deep love for Nacho and Kos so will be hard to top those 2. Hector is awesome though and so much room to get better, positioning has been poor at times this year including today.

So, um, this Giroud "injury." WTF is going on there? Is it still his toe? I don't remember any other injuries for him.
At the very least, for the first time I can remember in my short time following the team, we don't need to rush anyone back under any circumstance. I feel like if Ramsey was 90% he would have been out there playing 90 minutes. I realize the season is still relatively young.
You aren't on FS1 or FS2, I'm seeing it as channel 640-1 on Directv which is Mid Atlantic Sports Network for me.
How can you be sure that it will air on that channel? That's the one thing I can never understand with Directv. Half the time I am good, the other half I am blacked out.
Santi is due for a rest I hope he starts Xhaka with Elneny. give the Basel products their chance to shine against their old team. wouldn't mind Gibbs getting a run out either.
I also think a big part of the reason Xhaka hasn't been playing is because Wenger thinks that he and Santi occupy too much of the same space with how they like to play sitting deep in the midfield. so I think that increases the chances we see Elneny today with one of them rather than both of them together.
Mustafi has been solid, but put up an A+ performance against Chelsea Ozil has zero assists which is crazy, but has chipped in a few goals and the team looks utterly lost without him
