3 talking points ahead of Arsenal vs Leicester
- Gunners return to Premier League action
- Two new players could come into the lineup
- Full-back duo should continue
2. Calafiori and Timber to continue
Riccardo Calafiori and Jurrien Timber started at left-back and right-back respectively against Manchester City and should continue in these roles for the Leicester game.
The Italian started at centre-back against Bolton while Timber was rested but both should be fully prepared to start once again on Saturday. Both put in good performances against City and should be looking for consistent opportunities.
Consistent starts are crucial for Calafiori's development as a Premier League player. Timber also needs this consistency given he is still adapting to the league due to the long-term injury he suffered last season. The continuation of this full back duo will mean the omission of Ben White from the starting XI once again so Arteta will have to make that tough choice.
Regardless, it is likely Calafiori and Timber will be the starting full-back pair to face the Foxes.
