As many Brits in the starting eleven as Arsenal. It feels like we're losing our identity as an English team more and more.

Dave Johnno was spot on with Arnie starting!

Dave Johnno was spot on with Arnie starting! I think it was pretty obvious in all honesty. He was always brought in to be Ethers replacement, Ireland will soon replace Adam too.

no defenders on the bench again !!! risky Marc will step into defence if anyone has to get subbed at back. My bench would've looked like this though: Sörensen; Wilkinson; Assaidi, Etherington, Palacios, Ireland; Crouch

I'm happy too. Would TP have ever been happy to swap out Crouch for Jones and Ethers for Arnautovic just because they were playing much better and suited the system more?
Not too many changes to keep some stability, and Arnie looks way more threatening than Ethers has been. I'm glad we have Walters on because his stamina will help us when we decide to put pressure on while they try to play keep-ball. Also, I rate his hold-up play and you need 1-2 players who can do that if you end up having to counterattack.
EDIT: No CB cover is worrying again though. How bad is Muniesa's injury? We probably need to get another lad in :/

My bench would've looked like this though: Sörensen; Wilkinson; Assaidi, Etherington, Palacios, Ireland; Crouch and if Wilson gets injured ? I really don't understand why he wouldn't put at least 1 defender on the bench,that's the only issue I have had with Hughes team selections so far
