The Ox’s FA Cup Heroics In Vain, As Rosicky To Be Preferred?

The Ox’s FA Cup Heroics In Vain, As Rosicky To Be Preferred?

With the European champions in town, Arsene Wenger wants to make sure that they do not come up short against them this time around. He is starting with primarily strengthening his midfield, and wants to go ahead with Rosicky in place for Oxlade-Chamberlain. Wenger feels that the opposition midfield trio of Bastian Schweinsteiger, Toni Kroos and Javi Martinez can be countered by having a calmer and more experienced head of Rosicky than the younger and more adventurous one of Oxlade-Chamberlain.

This will be really harsh for the young English international, who has been in exceptional form ever since making his return from the dreadful knee injury he suffered on the opening day of the season. He has been directly or indirectly involved in Arsenal’s last five goals, scoring 3 and setting up 2 of them. His top form was on show on Sunday again as he scored one and assisted another in Arsenal’s 2-1 win against Liverpool.


However, the Daily Mail believe that he could start the Bayern Munich game from the bench and give way for the Czech international. Would you make this change if you were in Arsene Wenger’s place? Should Rosicky be picked over Oxlade-Chamberlain for this crucial clash?
