Alexis, Ozil & Lacazette Start! How Arsenal Should Line Up vs. West Brom

Forwards: Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez

This only works against sides that get clogged up in their own half because these two will be less likely to have to run back and do the defensive work when playing West Brom.

Against Chelsea it’s a different story because you need hard workers over talent and neither one of these two have shown us that so far this season.

Believe it or not, this would be Alexis’ first start in the Premier League since the season began as he’s failed to overcome an injury and build match fitness.

All of that changed after picking up 90 minutes against Doncaster, whilst Ozil is also back in full training after recovering from a minor inflammation in his knee.
