Arsene Wenger has made wholesale changes to the side that drew against Chelsea on Wednesday as Arsenal prepare to face Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup
Danny Welbeck, Theo Walcott and David Ospina are those who have been handed a rare start. Reiss Nelson gets another opportunity to showcase his abilities, and there are a number of other youngsters who are on the bench.
Per Mertesacker leads the side as the Gunners look to kick off the defence of their FA Cup title on a winning note.
