Watford v Arsenal. High alert, score predictions, who passes most, and the squad

1. To prevent the Achilles & the hip injuries hit which Koscielny & Kolasinac both picked up while playing in international games this week from escalating to become long term if they are so soon started in our away Watford PL game on Saturday and their injuries reoccure in a match which is likely to be of high energy sap consume starting game, I am seriously of the opinion Le Prof should leave out both Koscielny and Kolasinac out of his starting XI lineup for the match but could have them both on his bench. So too are Ozil and Welbeck should both be left out of starting the match but be on the bench too. If Koscielny is left out from starting the match, Mertesacker is on hand and able to replace him in the back three. But to replace Kolasinac at the left wing back position is a bit of a problem for me. Because I am yet to identify another senior Gunner in the squad who is able to start in this position efficiently as Kolasinac does for Arsenal in a back three backline. Save, if I do some adjustments by trying replacing him in my own starts for the match.

   Now, will Le Prof helps Sanchez to start him in our Watford game to recover quickly from his mental depression, but if he’s physicality fit to start in the game after his return from the Chile last World Cup qualifying game away to Brazil in a match Sanchez failed to paddle the Chilean canoe carrying the Chilean World Cup national team on board to safety in the Sao Paolo’s sea on their ways to the Russia 2018 World Cup final games? But unfortunately had them all including himself drown in the sea. Which after pulling him out of the sea by emergency sea rescuers he’s left mentally depressed.

   My reshuffled 3-4-3 starts and bench:

   Cech
   Holding Mertesacker Monreal
   Maitland Ramsey Xhaka Le Coq
   Bellerin Lacazette Sanchez.

   What an unparalleled potional playing switching for Coquelin as left wing back and Bellerin as a front right winger for this match I’ve done in my starting XI. Le Prof should please not entertain any fears whatsoever, rather, let him do it by starting them accordingly. It will pay a handsome dividend for Arsenal in terms of winning the match by 3 goals to nil as even Lawro of the BBC Sports has said.

   Bench:
   Ospina Koscielny Kolasinac Elneny Ozil Welbeck Giroud.

   Koscielny, Kolasinac, Ozil & Welbeck are all on the bench to further cement recovery in their injuries so as to be stronger to start in our EL Cup match away to Red Star and to Everton in the PL. These are 2 difficult games for which Arsenal should have some of their senior Gunners conserved energy to be able to start in the games efficiently.

2. Think this could be quite a tough game, going for a third fought 2-1 victory.
   Not sure who the ref is for this

3. Sorry! I’ve made a big mistake in my starting XI for this match by omitting Iwobi from my starting lineup for this our Watford away PL game. So, let me quickly correct my starts as per below.

   Starts:
   Cech
   Holding Mertesacker Monreal
   Bellerin Ramsey Xhaka Le Coq
   Iwobi Lacazette Sanchez.

   I don’t know how my memory skipped Iwobi from starting this match who for his ability to cross the ball under pressure from his marker from the right corner byline to lift the ball very high in the Zambian box in the last NGR vs ZAM WC qualifying match which I watched and he impressed me that led me to have suggested in one of my comments posting that he should henceforth be allowed to be taking corner kicks from the right side for Arsenal when the Arsenal all corner kicks specialist, Ozil is not on the field. Sorry Iwobi, my earlier omitting you in my starts is an error. You should start this match to continue your partnership with Sanchez to score goals for Arsenal. Consequently, Maitland-Niles is out of my starting lineup and my 18 Gunners for this our Watford game and I’ve returned Bellerin to his usual right wing back starting role in my starts for this match. But I still starting Coquelin as left wing back in the match to replace Kolasinac who I’ve benched to further recover from his hip injury despite Koscielny and him being passed okay to play in the match by the Arsenal medical according to media reports.

4. I like that idea, Tony, another column saying how the injury was caused! Can’t see it happening though, it would probably be too revealing and pose too many awkward questions. For the referees, apart from anyone else.

5. Great xi, iwobi, good to start

6. Pat I think you are on to something here.

   What if You Tube was not only filled with ‘great goals’ ‘freak goals’ and alike?

   What if we had videos showing how players were injured?

   That could be interesting!
