Cazorla/Ozil and Sterling or Yaya Toure and Walcott? I need some help here. This will be final touch to mine team.

Not the guy you asked but another gooner so I'll add what I can. The real problem is the Ox. He was injured for a lot of last season and didn't really break into the first team. He's performed fantastically preseason though and can absolutely see him continuing his run of form. If this is the case then I think either Ramsey or Cazorla will have to make way for him, though it could feasibly be Ozil if he isn't performing well. The Coq is nailed on, and if he is going to be benched it will only be for Artetta. The real issue is that due to Sanchezes injury we are likely to see Ox, Cazorla, Ozil and Ramsey all start the first game. I'm going to be watching the game anyway, so will probably be keeping an eye on the midfield and if whoever I choose ( i suspect it will be Ramsey at this point) doesn't perform, I will be swapping them out with whoever performs the best. I can see that you might not want to waste a transfer on this decision (though only necessary if whoever you pick under performs) but it is really almost impossible to tell.

I suspect that it will be Cazorla (because of his age) or Ox (beause of his inexperience) who misses out when Sanchez returns, so maybe go for Ozil. I do believe though that Ramsey is more likely to score points than Ozil as he has generally been a bigger goal threat. It worth bearing in mind though, that it was Ramsey who was pushed out to the right when Cazorla, Sanchez and Ozil were all fit, so if the Ox is the one to lose out then Ramsey may be playing out of position.

In short, pick one, but be prepared to watch the game and transfer them if they don't perform. I can see anyone of the midfielders being benched when Sanchez comes back. Once a midfield has been picked, however, I think that the starting XI will be pretty consistent barring injury.
