Against stronger teams I'd go for our standard formation — Either Welbeck or
Giroud as lone striker, Alexis on the left, Walcott or Ox on the right, Cazorla / Özil in the middle, Ramsey as box to box and Arteta / Flamini as holding midfielder.
Expect Sanogo to replace
Giroud as the lone striker up front.

Now with
Giroud out for 3 months Wenger wont be able to play the
lone striker upfront
as we don't have a player of that quality, so what happens now,
Wenger could save him by selling alexis and
giroud to buy aubamayung and play ozil behind lacazette n aubamayung then we might compete with batsuaryi morata lukaku rashford aguro Jesus but

as a
lone striker, but anyway i do nt think he will leave atletico

Giroud is a good one when he got bullied by a 16 year old debutant who forced him to go out wide
as a
lone striker, That defence too my god people were talking about how Koscielny and Metersacker were the best pairing at Cb no were not... and today proved why there were a few times metersacker overcommited when payet was dribblng left a gaping hole in that defence and if westhams
strikers were on the ball this would have been a much larger margin.
