Belated Blackburn Team News
26 comments December 22nd, 2006
In the comments section of my website, I informed readers that there would be an update as soon as Arsene’s Friday press-conference was complete. However, I then did something terrible: I completely forgot.
So here it is. The team I think will face Blackburn tomorrow. The only doubts would be a) whether Tomas Rosicky is truly fit to start, and b) whether we play in a 4-5-1 or 4-4-2 system: we have the personnel for both.
If Rosicky doesn’t make it, then Theo Walcott would probably replace him. Mathieu Flamini is fit, and will be on the bench ahead of Lauren, who will have to wait for his Premiership comeback.
Blackburn are struggling, and will be without their top striker, Benni McCarthy, who is suspended. Anything less than a win would be very disappointing.
