I would say that he's unlikely to change a winning team. One of Wieffer/Baelba might come in.

Saka could brutally expose Hinshelwood if it's him at LB though. Not his position.

Why not sign that thug Williams from Crawley and put him on Saka?
Please not Igor or Lamptey.

Estupinan looked a bit rusty last night. I’d like to see Kadioglu as he’s right footed and Saka constantly comes inside.

Ferdi will occupy one of the FB slots. On last night's evidence I'd say Arsenal maybe a game to early for Pervis.

Probably this - how much has he played recently?

Pervis looked very rusty.

Think it will likely be unchanged in terms of the back 4, although would like to see Ferdi feature at some point in the game. Is it beyond the realms of possibility that Veltman might switch to the left hand side to deal with Saka in one of his trademark masterclasses of man marking?

Ferdi has been playing for Fenerbahce prior to this weekend.

Ferd has been around the squad since at least last Friday.
He will replace Hinshelwood at LB.

Ferdi was playing in a Champions League qualifier a couple of weeks ago so should be match fit.

I assume you mean unchanged from Everton rather than last night

Saka might well do this to anyone we put there.

I'd like to see Ferdi start at left back, but I reckon just as likely we'll start with an unchanged defence from the Man U game. Ferdi to get 20 mins at the end

We needed to stop the ball getting to Saka in dangerous positions. Unless we can do that it will be a case of damage limitation whoever plays.

Think he’s improved after his initial start.
I actually don’t mind Hinsh vs Saka, as Saka likes to come inside which is Hinsh’s stronger foot.
