Arsene Wenger has confirmed his starting eleven and substitutes for Arsenal’s Premier League clash against Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium later today.
The Arsenal boss has decided to go with the midfield two of Santi Cazorla and Francis Coquelin, and new signing Granit Xhaka again finds a place on the bench. Theo Walcott, Mesut Ozil and Alex Iwobi will support Alexis Sanchez up top in attack.
Wenger has the attacking options of Lucas Perez, and Olivier Giroud from the bench, and also has the defensive options of Rob Holding and Kieran Gibbs from the bench. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is another attacking outlet the Frenchman could use if needed.
