Arsenal will look to bounce back from their midweek disappointment against Anderlecht by beating Swansea in PL.
Swans are only two points behind gunners but after a brilliant start to the season, their form has dipped.
Gunners on the other hand have improve quite a lot and have enough quality to earn all three points on Sunday.
Arsene Wenger’s injury concerns are still there but soon key stars will return to give side a massive boost.
Arteta suffered a minor hamstring injury in midweek and will be absent vs Swans. On the other hand Wilshere missed the game because of illness and will return.
With their defense still weak, Arsenal should focus on the strategy of attack being the best defense.
The moment gunners have opted to take pressure off the opponents this season, they have put themselves under pressure.
Hence, it is better to start Wilshere and Ramsey in midfield instead of bringing Flamini back.
Here is Arsenal’s updated XI vs Swansea.

No matter what the team selection it will boil down to tactics during the game. Wenger, amongst other things, is a poor tactician and, unlike American football, does not use his bench to advantage only to replace injured or tiring players . If the strategy is not working or the formation needs adjusting a manager must have the courage and confidence to change the line-up for the second half, albeit just one player . Wenger leaves it until the match is shot and tries to inject new legs. It`s not working. The balance and natural flow must not be disturbed and tactical replacements need to be made early in the second half, if need be., to keep the rhythm flowing.
Swansea at home are a tough nut to crack. We, like it or not, have a weak defense. It could go either way at 2-1. We are back to relying mainly on one man, be it Fabregas, Van Persie, or Sanchez. Let`s hope he`s firing.
If you play Ramsey and Wilshere, the best the team can achieve is a draw.
Thank God you are not the coach. Wilshere and Ramsey in the DM role will expose the sluggish Mertesacker and the error prone Monreal. Let’s not forget how quickly Chambers and Gibbs forget their defensive duties. It would just be another high scoring suicide at best.
I am not concerned about Rambo and Jack in those positions-but I would be worried about them having to carry Caz. Coping with the strolling Mert is unfair buthaving to carry crawling Cazorla is desperate for the front 3. Let’s hope Swansea have an off day!
