The most overworked Arsenal players were

a) Ramsey (played 2 games and 90 mins each). #@$#$@# Off Chris Coleman!
b) Giroud (played 2 games and 90, 81 mins each).
c) Ozil (WTF Joachim loew - u guys already qualified, why risk OZIL. @##@!#!@# )
d) Kos (played 2 games and 90 mins each).

Definately would agree with DSC - Rest Ramsey, Ozil, Giroud this weekend.

Can't afford to rest Ozil or Giroud yet. Probably have to have Ramsey in the lineup too. Good news is Cazorla can come off the bench and Walcott, Sagna, Chamberlain, and Podolski are not far off.

As for Sanogo, he's still hurt. If Giroud has to start from the bench then at least The Last Samurai is coming off a nice rest following his two-goal cracker against Italy.

Podolski's out until December, no? And what are the return dates of the others? I think Walcott is still at least three weeks out.

Wenger's hand is probably forced with regard to Giroud, but no way should we start both Ozil and Ramsey.

I jumped the gun slightly on Ox and Podolski, though they are reportedly making "decent progress" http://news.arseblog.com/2013/10/mesut-a-ok-for-norwich-clash/

I don't think the Arteta-Flamini axis will be a recipe for success again Norwich, so I'm just wondering how you rest Ramsey and Ozil?

Having spared himself a potentially fatiguing last 15 minutes or so yesterday, Ozil should be just fine if the bruise ain't a deep one. It's Ramsey that most needs the rest, so Wenger could well rely on Flamini/Arteta to get him though this match.

Giroud can be worked like a field horse.

Start with this:

Bendtner
Cazorla - Wilshere - Rosicky
Arteta - Flamini
Gibbs - Kos - Mert - Jenkinson
Szczesny

Giroud, Theo, Ozil off the bench if needed.

And then against Dortmund we put out our first choice XI.

Though I previously compared Giroud to a hard working farm animal, Bendtner is coming off a potentially confidence producing match for Denmark, so why not give him 65-70 minutes at home against the Canaries?

Ramsey sits.

Prefer Xidane's line up.
Ramsey, Giroud and Ozil have slogged thier asses off, over the last 2 weeks.

But i dont think Santi is ready to start is he?

As a mere knock isn't something that causes, or is caused by fatigue I wouldn't think Wenger needs to rest him, not as much as Ramsey or Giroud.
