Front Three

I was so impressed by our attack against Wolves. With Nicolas Pepe unavailable, Bukayo Saka stepped in next to Eddie Nketiah and while Nketiah had a fantastic match without a goal, Saka had a poor match with a goal. It all balanced out, though. I would have no problem with them starting together again.

Although that won’t happen.

Assuming Pepe is going to be back available, he’ll get his starting spot back. He is verifiably out best attacker and it’s such a thrill to think that he’ll be back in the starting XI here. Hopefully.

Up top, I have a sneaking suspicion that Alexandre Lacazette will be starting. While the rotation was disrupted before this, the goal certainly has to be taken as an opportunity to get him back into better spirits, And that starts with getting him back into the starting XI.

Elsewhere, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will keep his spot, because he’s the only guy that doesn’t get any form of rotation. He’s out there every day.
