Moussa Sissoko is fit again, after recovering from his hamstring injury, and Mathieu Debuchy and Loic Remy will also be in the side to play at Arsenal on Monday night.
Moussa Sissoko -0 back on Monday night
Davide Santon and Papiss Cisse are both out for the season, and we’re not sure whether Luuk de Jong is fit for this game.
Shola Ameobi played quite well last Saturday against Swansea, and of course scored his first Premier League goal of the season. although we still found a way to lose that game 2-1.
But we don;t think Shola will start this game, and that Alan will play a modified 4-5-1 formation, to try to get a grip on the midfield.
Here’s a possible side for Monday night:
Krul
Debuchy Williamson Coloccini (c) Dummett
Sissoko Tiote Anita Gosling Gouffran
Remy
Alan Pardew could elect to play three at the back, and it could be that he starts Moussa on the bench.
And Ben Arfa is apparently fit – but for such a tough game we’d be surprised if he starts the game, but he’ll be on the bench.
But that looks to us like our strongest side for Monday night.
What would you team be against Arsenal?

Comment #3I think we need to attack this Game. No one is expecting us to get anything from it. Get hba and marv into the team, I know they’re inconsistent but we have been awful since hull and we were pretty bad before then. We have to change it up.

Comment #4Sissoko Tiote Anita.Three same type of players-DEFENSIVE MIDFIELDER.In the team must be just one.Gosling is a striker and if he plays,his place is with Remy.And for Gouffran i think honestly that he is plus in the team in the past couple of games.He is not effective at all. Dummet on bench.Everything else is normal.Big mistake for Shane Ferguson(Joe Kinnear friend).

Comment #5change haidarra for Dummett.
sit tiote and sissoko in front of defence with sissoko acting as the box to box man.
