This is the game we are waiting anxiously for and hopefully our Gunners will continue with it's fine form and get another 3 points from this crucial encounter at the Emirates to make sure we get into the knockout stage. Flamini is definitely out of this crunching tie but no fear because we have ample choices to fill up the midfield positions. Our likely line-up: Szczesny, Sagna, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Gibbs, Arteta, Ozil, Carzola, Ramsey, Rosicky/Wilshere and Giroud. Bench: Fabianski, Monreal, Jenkinson, Vermaelen, Gnabery, Bendtner.

Dortmund is a real hard nut to break but if Napoli was able to beat them so can our Gunners. So I expect another 3 points tonight and nothing less than that. Come on Gunners!!!!

The stadium will be loud, not from our supporters but the traveling fans from North Rhine-Westphalia. Hope we will play that magical first 20 mins against Napoli and go up 2-0 early and hang on to win the match.

Here's how I hope we line up:

SZCZ

Sagna Per Kos Gibbs

Arteta Ramsey

Wilshere Ozil Cazorla

Giroud


Also, wouldn't mind seeing Rosicky start instead of Wilshere or Cazorla. And a sidenote: I've been a very vocal defender of the qualities Arteta brings to the DM spot, but I'm a bit concerned we don't have our rabid Frenchman shadowing Reus today.

I think it's a good idea to have Rosicky starting this game w/ Cazorla on the bench. We're going to need that energy and buzzing around that will be lacking with Flamini out. And Cazorla is one hell of an option to bring in off the bench.

I got all excited seeing this post only to find out that Dish ain't participating in this free preview.

A little sympathy please. I'll keep track of the match on Gamecast as streaming via First Row Sports requires at least three cyber condoms.

I know too well what that feels like, so you'll get plenty of sympathy from me. Hopefully, the board here can help you through the match as it has me in past.
