Predicting Arsenal’s Starting XI For FA Community Shield Against Chelsea
By Josh Sippie
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Santi Cazorla
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, when in form, looks like one of the best players on this team. I often have to remind myself that he is only 21. This kid has a long future with this club so long as he stays healthy. He suffered serious injuries last year but is ready to get back into form and claim his spot.
The Ox is on pace for a monster season if his preseason is to be believed, and seeing as how it happened, it is impossible not to believe it.
Alex Iwobi almost came in at left wing, but I do not see how Santi Cazorla can be sat. He too, had a fantastic preseason and his presence would be missed if he was not on the pitch. While Aaron Ramsey will claim the spot next to Coquelin, Santi Cazorla still has a hefty amount of experience on the left wing, so he can still be utilized out wide.
