Likely Line-Up vs. Cologne: Wenger To Make 9 Changes As Wilshere & Alexis Start

Wing-backs: Reiss Nelson and Sead Kolasinac

This is an area that will see a lot of change throughout the campaign and with the loss of Oxlade-Chamberlain provides a chance for Nelson to find a role in the team.

Nelson is far better at attack than defence but he’s already showed us that a step up to the first team isn’t far away following his six goals in four games in Premier League 2.

I can’t quite remember there being so much hype over a young Arsenal player since Jack Wilshere so Wenger will please a lot of fans by including the 18-year-old in tonight’s starting XI.

Kolasinac put in another top class performance against Bournemouth and as long as Wenger can get him off after 60 minutes he’ll have plenty of rest before the weekend.
