Suarez looks a little jaded, no doubt..but we need him for Arsenal. He should not play the smaller games and like i said many times, the bet team should always be out for the league games.
winning a cup is nice but it is the damn league that our total focus should be on

i would play the same squad except change henderson for kuyt and flanagan for kelly.
its the right time to play arsenal they are weaker than ever without fabregas and hopefully nasri with gervinho on a match ban after his red card against newcastle. we have to make this game count and we can't allow them the chance to regain their confidence.
we still need time to gel though but hopefully we get gain some momentum and grab a big 3 points on saturday.

i stated very clearly why i didnt have suarez playing. he needs a real rest imo. although i dont like carroll up front on his own i think it would be the best thing against arsenal because with 3 CMs we could dominate midfield and with arsenal if you dominate the midfield the chances create themselves because they just cant defend, they dont know how to.
obviously i am looking in from the outside, maybe suarez is perfectly rested and fully fit, unlikely but maybe he is and if so then great play him every week but i dont think he should be starting, and id bet brukner and the rest of the medical staff would agree with me I don't think they would agree with you and neither would Suarez. He played 6 games during the 3 weeks of the copa america, back in July. So he had time off at the end of the premier league season, a tournament which counted as his pre-season, then some time off afterwards. Perfect rest and perfect preparation I say. Bear in mind he's an extremely fit & healthy professional athlete....how much rest do you think someone of his calibre actually needs to recuperate? On top of that his pre-season games (copa america) were all in argentina so he wasn't jetting off to to china, norway, hull(!), turkey and malaysia. In my opinion, he should be the fittest, freshest and most match ready of our whole squad.

"Both Gervinho and Alex Song are suspended, while Tomas Rosicky and Armand Traore have become the club's latest injury casualties, with Traore limping out of a reserve team match on Tuesday and Rosicky aggravating a groin injury during the victory against Udinese. The pair will thus join Abou Diaby, Kieran Gibbs, Jack Wilshere and Johan Djourou on a treatment table that is presumably close to collapsing."

looks like they will havew to field a few youngsters

gooners ain't got no fire power. we shud take the game to them.
with raul, adam, aqua in the middle of the park, gooners midfield will be chasing shadows.
johnson, enrique whipping in the crosses for carroll, gooners defence will be shitting them selves for 90min.
downing given a free role behind carroll, running with the ball, shooting, crossing etc etc, gooners will be in a panic.

winning a cup is nice but it is the damn league that our total focus should be on I agree. He did look tired in the 2nd half against Sunderland, but with the Arsenal game up next, now is not the time to be resting possibly our best and most effective player. Exeter are up next. He can have a rest for that. There's no European football this season, so he'll have plenty of other chances to rest, aswell.

Interesting team the absence of Suarez seems to suggest u also think he needs some rest right?... well he did run out of steam in the second half against Sunderland so maybe u're right, but then again so did just about the whole team! As for ur team selection I think its a good one though I personally wouldn't be as ambitious as to play it against Arsenal, they maybe in sixes and sevens at the moment but they r still a decent team especially at the grove. I'd consider it say in an FA cup tie against a lower division team.
