Pick Your Arsenal Team To Play Sunderland ~ Just Arsenal Blog

Should Wenger pick the team that secured a 6-0 victory in the Champions League?

Arsenal have put their stamp on the league so far with a number of impressive wins and will look to continue their successful run with an away victory against Sunderland.

Despite a cautious performance against Liverpool in their opening fixture away to Anfield, Arsene Wenger’s men have secured imposing wins against Blackpool in which they fired six past the Seasiders and a comfortable win against Bolton in which they scored four goals to gain three points.

The Gunners are yet to lose a game this season and after a 6-0 romping over Braga in the Champions League the London club will be confident of getting a result at the Stadium of Light, however, the last fixture resulted in a loss for Arsenal after Darren Bent scored the winner for Sunderland.

Arsenal boss Wenger suffered no injuries to his team during midweek so he is able to pick from an unchanged squad, however Robin van Persie and Theo Walcott still remain out with ankle injuries.

Jack Wilshere and Samir Nasri are likely to be in the starting line-up for the Gunners and Wenger may also call upon the likes of Kieron Gibbs, Emmanuel Eboue and Rosicky.

Here is the available squad:

Goalkeepers: Manuel Almunia, Lukasz Fabianski, Vito Manonne.

Defenders: Bacary Sagna, Laurent Koscielny, Emmanuel Eboue, Sebasten Squillaci, Gael Clichy, Kieran Gibbs, Johan Djourou, Thomas Vermaelen.

Midfielders: Cesc Fabregas, Alex Song, Jack Wilshere, Tomas Rosicky, Denilson, Henri Lansbury.

Forwards: Samir Nasri, Marouane Chamakh, Andriy Arshavin, Carlos Vela.

Goal.com UK’s prediction: Almunia; Sagna, Koscielny, Squillaci, Clichy; Fabregas, Song, Wilshere; Nasri, Chamakh, Arshavin.
