I never thought i'd see the day i'm advocating Sissoko to start away at the Emirates but by fuck, he's earned that spot!

Biggest question for Poch is whether to play Dier or Winks next to him but the rest of team pretty much picks itself right now which is what @Mr Pink has alluded to.
It will be definitely Dier

I wouldn't. The young lad has done brillant but those rash challenges coupled with Arsenal's quick movement in and around the box would be asking for trouble.

I'm sure they would target him as well. It's a NLD, protect him, and play our most experienced CB partnership.

His time will come.

Agree with your reasoning but the only issue is Verts has only just come back from a hamstring injury, I think Poch will see 2 massive games in the space of a few days as too much for Verts.

Neither would I :) but Poch I think has a lot of faith in him, I was surprised he actually started on Saturday knowing that Vertonghen could have played.

Just set Son on Kolasinac all game and we’re bound to get something.

If not just give it Moussa and let him do his thing

Oh for sure, but crucially now Verts has minutes under his belt, unless Poch decides not to risk him feeling he needs to be protected from the injury recurring.

Funny how football works, had anyone been placing Aurier and Sissoko into the team ahead of Trippier and Lamela a few weeks ago, i’d be sending them a stern PM invitation to a round of fisticuffs.

PM me if ur interested anyway

I never know I would see the day that people are genuinely unsure which of our England players should be picked to partner Sissoko in midflield!

One worrying aspect is that Arsenal have literally rested everyone for their europa league game so should be a lot fresher than our guys.

The Arsenal first team hasn’t even travelled.

Difficult choice between Dier and Winks.

Dier probably edges it as didn’t play again Inter so will be a little fresher plus maybe we need more steel for this one.
