Need to get right back at it for the Arsenal match. Skyrtel suspended is not good news, and SG also might have been pushing for a start. And seems Lovren unavilable too.
So would probably go:
Migs
Can Toure Sahko
Johnson Allen Hendo Moreno
Sterling Sturridge Coutinho
Sterling as wingback did not work. Needs to be further up. Jonno to come back.
Moreno was poor, would be a risk to play him against Arsenals attack. But not sure what better option there is, so might give him chance to redeem himself.
Would consider Lucas in the middle and move Hendo to FB (and not play Moreno) - but game like this imo is too soon for Lucas.
If Lovren injured, Toure has to come in.
Lallana needs to on top form to start (or for there to be injuries), crucial miss in the Utd game, he needs to deliver in big matches.
Don't bother with Mario on the bench, the guy should be packing his bags. If only we had another striking option (blue in face saying that), Lambert ain't the answer and no sign of Borini, assume completely frozen out (or injured?)
This is a tough ask. Arsenal are playing well. A win would be a great result, would settle for a draw now.
