Arsenal: How Can The Gunners Beat Valencia? – Tactical [VIDEO]

Mesut Ozil and Nacho Monreal both missed the Leicester game through injury and are doubtful for Thursday’s clash, while Aaron Ramsey is definitely out with a hamstring complaint.

Rob Holding, Hector Bellerin and Danny Welbeck are all long-term absentees, meanwhile, and Denis Suarez’s loan spell has come to a premature end because of a troublesome muscular problem that he has been unable to shake off.

Emery therefore has limited options to choose from, but there are still some big decisions to be made. Laurent Koscielny was benched against Leicester with this match in mind, and his likely return could mean Shkodran Mustafi missing out on a reunion with his former club.
