Santi was listed as starting there but Ozil was actually filling that space behind Welbeck and then given the freedom to move wherever he wants...it's so obvious he should be our 10. We should really be starting Welbeck, Ozil at the 10 behind, Alexis out left, and Ox on the right...the latter two give a directness that we need on the wings and most importantly their work-rate and tracking really helps our side-backs a lot.

It was a solid game but the set piece defending has to get better. There's no excuse for Gibbs not marking that ball from Cleverley, Szcesny made a great save (and he's quietly been one of the best keepers in the world thus far).

Ramsey is a bit of a conundrum right now...he's in such poor form but we know how good he can be...hard to not play him, but imo w/ how much Wilshere has improved and reduced his risk taking and excessive ball holding, you have to play Jack over him.
