I am making a bold prediction here, and that may just be a case of me predicting what I would do in Wenger’s shoes, but either way, changes have to be made. Hopefully by now Wenger sees that running with four attacking midfielders is not effective and if I had to choose a weak link from last match it would be Cazorla.

Santi Cazorla simply looked lost at times when on the pitch for Arsenal. He gave the ball away recklessly and looked shaky tracking back.

Meanwhile, Aaron Ramsey looked great on the right yet again and if this is any sort of audition to take Cazorla’s role, he has to have gotten it by now.

Coquelin had another match of perfectly-timed tackles and well-seen interceptions. We cannot function without him.
