Santi looked knackered after the PSG game, so I think he should be rested for this one, but he probably won’t though.
Hull had a good start to their season, and we’re not world beaters at the moment, hopefully we manage to get a result here and build momentum with a decent display and not lucky/scrappy performances.
I think I’d go with the OP original line up too, let’s see what a free-form front three/four can do instead of this Coquelin striker role for a change.
I’m going for an optimistic win. Would love to see some nice football, some balls in our opponents’ nets, some Xhaka-pingers, an Iwobi gun celebration and Elneny absolutely smashing a 25-yarder, top corner.
He might try Perez on the right and Giroud upfront or maybe Iwobi on the right but I wouldn’t be surprised if he played Walcott, if he’s fit, or Chamberlain.
Picking our 11 is a minefield. The front six could be anything. Pretty jokes that we have absolutely no idea what our best midfield is, who our best wide players are or our best striker is. The only position you can for sure say who the player will be is Ozil #10.
Takes some planning to have questions marks in all those positions.
