In a game we were never expected to win, wenger has taken a big risk by leaving out Mesut

Ozil, Aaron Ramsey, Jack Wilshere, Alexandre Lacazette, Laurent Koscielny, Shkodran Mustafi

and Nacho Monreal from the squad and is intent on giving some of his youngsters a run out.

Jose Mourinho gave his players a rest and wants them to come back refreshed and ready

to earn the points needed to ensure second place in the Premier league.

Jose said: "We have had a good week since Wembley.

For the players, better than for me because they had more time off than I did but that's

just the nature of the job and I think they deserve that little rest.

"The majority of them, after the last match, they will go to their national teams and to

the World Cup, so to have a couple of days without football, I think it was nice for

them."

Wenger will be hoping his youngsters step up but with the firepower at Mourinho's

disposal he should have little trouble getting the three points today, but you never know….

So who will wenger play today?

It is anyone's guess really but I'm going to have a go from looking at the squad he

has taken to Old Trafford.

I thhink Petr Cech will be back in goal to try and stop United scoring too many, while

Chambers and Holding will be given another chance to improve their partnership in the

centre of defence.

Bellerin and Kolasinac should take the wing back positions.

Willock could get another start alongside fellow youngster Ainsley Maitland-Niles, with

Iwobi making up the midfield trio.

Mhkitaryan will get a run after returning from injury and he will renew his partnership

with Aubameyang, and Welbeck will be back on the wing as he normally performs well against

his old club.

This is actually a reasonably strong line-up if everyone plays their very best.
