TEAMS: Arsenal v Manchester City: Wenger Names Strong XI

We play our final pre-season friendly today against Manchester City in Helsinki.

This is our last chance to test the players out in a ‘competitive’ situation ahead of next weekends big kick off against Aston Villa.

The boss has named a strong side, in fact it’s arguably our strongest eleven with the exception of Cazorla. Young trialist Seb Perez is on the bench so you’d think he’ll get game-time at some point.

Here are the teams:

Arsenal

Szczesny, Sagna, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Gibbs, Arteta, Ramsey, Wilshere,  Walcott, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Podolski.

Subs: Fabianski, Jenkinson, Hayden, Giroud, Cazorla and Zelalem, Perez

Man City:

Hart, Zabaleta, Kompany, Lescott, Clichy, Fernandinho, Toure, Silva, Milner, Dzeko, Negredo

COYG!!

   As an Arsenal fan I seriously hope we get owned by City. Any favourable result will relieve pressure on the deluded fool Wenger and make him think he can go on with a small, thin and simply not good enough team.
   Spurs fans must be rolling around laughing at our lack of activities their managers good use of the transfer market, they are simply a stronger team now as are City and Chelsea.
   Negredo starts for City, 20 million for a 27 goal striker and we have no one.
   Master stroke Wenger, idiot.
