Petr Cech

This is one area that Arsenal cannot really let up at. Goalies do not need breaks that often, seeing as how they aren’t exactly doing wind springs between the posts when the ball is at the other end of the pitch. With David Ospina still injured, the likelihood of the Colombian getting his redemption Tuesday is slim to none.

That leaves Matt Macey. I will admit, I have not seen much of Macey. All I know is that Arsenal was one of a host of suitors vying for his signature and the Gunners won out. That leaves us with a 21 year old English keeper that is supposedly pretty good.

While it would not be too terribly surprising to see young Macey in goal, I think that as long as there is silverware at stake, Wenger is going to send out as many of his regulars as he can. Even with the short layoff, he can still send out Petr Cech. That will give the team, no matter who they are composed of, a healthy dose of confidence against a hopefully lesser opponent.
