The wholesale changes Arsenal fans demand vs Nottingham Forest including starts for 2 wonderkids

Arsenal supporters have urged Unai Emery to shuffle the pack ahead of tonight's Carabao Cup clash with Nottingham Forest.

The Gunners have looked questionable in recent weeks as defensive errors have proved costly against both Watford and Aston Villa at the weekend.

But with several injured stars nearing a return, it seems that fans are hoping to see some familiar faces return to action.

Rob Holding is expected to feature, while Hector Bellerin and Kieran Tierney could be in contention after making their comeback appearances for the under-23 clash against Wolves last Friday.

After the impact made against Villa, supporters are also hoping to see Calum Chambers take his place in the centre of defence alongside the returning Holding.

Many have empathised with out of favour Lucas Torreira this term with supporters backing him to return to the first team fold.

It seems that fans want him to get his chance alongside Joe Willick in midfield against Forest.

Fans also believe that the clash with the Championship side is the ideal time to rotate their attacking players, with Gabriel Martinelli, Reiss Nelson and Tyreece John-Jules tipped to acompany Mesut Ozil in Arsenal's attacking unit.

Fans' predicted Arsenal XI: Martinez; Bellerin, Chambers, Holding, Tierney; Torreira, Willock; Martinelli, Ozil, Nelson; John-Jules
