No way...put him on the bench over Mateta, sure. But at least Benteke offers us a different strategy of lumping balls into the box if we're down. Mateta is just going to do what Eduoard does...not quite as well. Agree about getting Plange onto the bench though.

Hopefully he’ll pick Mateta...has more presence than Edouard and presses well..it’s what’s needed against Arsenal ....

I think it would be good to put both Eduoard AND Mateta on together. It would have to look like this: Clyne---Anderson---Guehi---Mitchell Eze---Doucoure---Schlupp Eduoard---Mateta---Zaha Now THAT'S a handful for Arsenal defenders to deal with. But can Eze defend as well as Ayew? I'd take a chance - but this line-up aint gonna happen. PV will put Ayew on. Edited by Oddball2021 (05 Aug 2022 9.01am)

I think it will be the same team as last Saturday, with the possible exception of Mateta for Edouard.

For me, I expect PV to go with Saturday's starting XI so Ward-Andersen-Guehi-Mitchell Eze-Doucoure-Schlupp Ayew-Edouard-Zaha He'll be able to name 9 subs, I believe, so: Which ones he'll use is anyone's guess, but I would expect Milivojevic, Mateta and Ebiowei to feature at some stage and possibly Hughes and Clyne. Just my opinion but as the OP said just a bit of triviality. Apparently, he has a calf injury & won't be risked.
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

I know people seem to think Edouard is the better player but so far Mateta has been the best striker out of Mateta/Edouard/Benteke. I also hope Ward isn't right back, don't get me wrong I love ward but he'll get slaughtered by the pace of the Arsenal frontline. I think the key is to go at Arsenal, they aren't really a physical side and us being too defensive would probably suit them. I would probably stick 4-3-3 and go for them
