Team News:
Arsenal essentially have their entire squad fit at this minute and this is likely Arteta’s best XI, with the potential flip flopping of left-backs and maybe Madueke takes that left-wing spot and makes it his own if Martinelli does not improve.
Havertz will of course start games as the striker as Gyokeres adjusts to the Premier League but Gyokeres will start against United.
Arsenal will want to and need to adjust their play style with their new star striker and they need to get him acclimated quickly, so Gyokeres will start and I could see Havertz coming on around the 60-70 minute mark.
New signing Zubimendi was excellent in pre-season and will be key for Arsenal this season. He of course will start.
Calafiori vs Lewis-Skelly at left-back will be one to watch this season. I think this will be dependent on opponent, as they offer different skill-sets. Calafiori is more of a line breaking passer, good at overlapping, crossing, finding passing angles into midfield or final third. Lewis-Skelly, having originally been a midfielder is great at inverting, carrying the ball and driving into the final third.
The same can be said of White and Timber. White provides a little more on the overlap and going forward, linking up with Saka and Odegaard so well. Timber, while not bad going forward is more appreciated for his lock down 1-on-1 defending.
