As expected Wenger is trotting out the teenagers today with the likes of Hayden, Eisfeld, Gnabry, and Ryo in the starting eleven. Bendtner is playing. WBA expected to field the strongest team they can muster.
Disjointed performance from The Arsenal but coming away without injuries is a plus. Bendtner looked rusty but his penalty kick was smooth. Hopefully Mertesacker isn't wiped out from that long game.
