Şükrü Saracoğlus welcomes Arsenal
By: j | October 20th, 2008Heading into their third match of Champions League competition, Arsenal travels to Istanbul to face Fenerbahçe. The Yellow Canaries have had a very troubling start to the Süper Lig campaign which has created a whirlwind of rumours regarding the future of Luis Aragonés.
This past Saturday Fenerbahçe fought back with a last gasp victory over Kocaelispor. While the result was anything but convincing, time will tell whether the squad found the internal resolve a champion that day has been missing so far. Against Arsenal they will be facing a squad of infinite capabilities but equally stuttering on the pitch this past month. The Gunners attack play into the defensive liabilities of the Yellow Canaries and they will need to muster up their must disciplined match of the season to come out successful.
Heading into the match, the Luis Aragonés has hinted that tactical changes are coming, however he has alluded to Arsenal commitment to defending and concern over the counter-attack. The precise lineup will not be decided till match-time, in particular with fitness tests looming for Gökhan Gönül and Emre Belözoğlu. However the key to this match is to be draw from the twelfth man and the extraordinary support within Şükrü Saracoğlus.
I will report upon the match once it concludes.
