Arsenal Ideal Starting XI To Face Watford
By Josh Sippie
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Aaron Ramsey
Jorge Sampaoli admitted that Alexis was not 100% when he deployed him against Brazil. But he did it anyway because he needed him. That means the injury did not heal. Why risk Alexis against a lesser opponent like Watford when Arsenal should, ideally, be fully capable of disposing of them without.
By all means, have Alexis available for substitution.
It will be interesting to keep tabs on this injury and how it progresses.
Aaron Ramsey led Wales to their first major competition in 57 years. That has to make him feel good. He also scored in the process. With all that pressure lifted, maybe he can turn the corner for Arsenal and start delivering like he did not so long ago.
