Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger makes one enforced change as Granit Xhaka comes in for the injured Francis Coquelin, while the Frenchman also opts for David Ospina in goal.

Arsenal XI: Ospina, Bellerin, Mustafi, Koscielny, Monreal, Xhaka, Cazorla, Walcott, Ozil, Iwobi, Alexis

Basel give a start in defence to Granit's brother, Taulant. That should be a interesting clash in the Gunners midfielder finds himself in the opposition area. Iceland midfielder Birkir Bjarnason, who conquered England at the Euros, also starts.

Basel XI: Vaclik, Lang, Suchy, T Xhaka, Balanta, Traore, Bjarnason, Zuffi, Fransson, Doumbia, Steffen

Rob Elmore: Even as an Arsenal fan, I would love Wenger to get the England job. Time for a change for both teams might be what's needed...  

Vishnu Ladwa: Being an Arsenal fan, I think that Wenger would be an ideal fit for England.

I'm disappointed for him. He'll devastated. He earned the right to take the job, but he's been daft. That entrapment thing could happen to most people. He's had a few beers, someone is offering him vast sums of money. Is that the conduct of an England manager? Probably not and it's cost him.

John Cross of the Daily Mirror: "It won't work for some clubs but some, especially those in relegation trouble, will think they wouldn't have sacked him anyway. I do think there will be some clubs willing to take him come January."

Looking at it from a legal stance at what Sam said. You can get round third-party ownership - yes you can. Taking money to speak in Asia - nothing illegal there. Speaking about other people - not nice, but not illegal. Enough for him to be sacked?

I think if Allardyce had been manager of a club, rather than England who have to be whiter than white, he wouldn't have lost his job yesterday.  

Manchester City fan Noel Gallagher has made the trip up to Celtic Park for tonight's game. 

Looks pumped for this game...

Love an old team photo, but the Tottenham lads have had a shocker in this one. There's only about five of them actually looking at the camera.

Anyway, 'why's it on this page?' You might ask. Well, the reason it's here is because this is the Spurs team from 1960-61 season. They hold the record for the best start to a season by an English club after winning their first 11 games.

Manchester City will equal that record if they beat Celtic in the Champions League tonight.

Funnily enough, it was City who ended Tottenham's winning run back in 1960.

Celtic are set-up top create chances. Rodgers is saying they are going to be more offensive minded than against Barcelona - that is borne out in his team.

De Bruyne has been fantastic this season - Guardiola says he's one of the top players in the world at the moment. Who do they have in his place? David Silva. Oh dear, one of my favourite Premier League players of all time.

Manchester City's team, player for player, is better than Celtic, but it doesn't always work that way.

Two changes for Celtic as Craig Gordon replaces De Vries in goal, while former Manchester City defender Kolo Toure is in for Simunovic.

Celtic XI: Gordon, Lustig, Toure, Sviatchenko, Tierney, Bitton, Brown, Forrest, Rogic, Sinclair, Dembele. Subs: De Vries,Simunovic, Griffiths, Gamboa, Armstrong, Roberts, McGregor.  

For Manchester City, Nolito comes in for Kevin de Bruyne, while Aleksander Kolarov partners Nicolas Otamendi in defence. Pablo Zabaleta starts at right back.

Manchester City XI: Bravo, Zabaleta, Otamendi, Kolarov, Clichy, Fernandinho, Gundogan, Silva, Sterling, Nolito, Aguero. Subs: Caballero, Sagna, Stones, Sane, Navas, Iheanacho, Fernando.

It's a Xhaka family affair tonight as Arsenal midfieilder Granit faces his brother and former team-mate Taulant.

It's not the first time the pair have faced each other, with Granit playing for Switzerland and Taulant turning out for Albania at Euro 2016.

Both game through the youth system at Basel and Granit has said before that they are not just brothers, "but also best friends".

Let's hope that's still the case after full time tonight.

The teams are in and Arsenal make two changes from the side that beat Chelsea 3-0 at the weekend. In comes keeper David Ospina for Petr Cech, while Granit Xhaka is in for Francis Coquelin.

Of all the years I've been watching games here, I can't remember Celtic ever playing for a point. It's not in their DNA. Brendan Rodgers is a Celtic man at heart and knows the fans want intelligent attempts to attack. Play for a point? I don't think so.

We'll mainly be focusing on Arsenal's game against Basel on this page with regular updates from Celtic versus Manchester City, but if you want pretty much dedicated coverage of the game at Celtic Park then pop over here.

Former Football Association chairman Greg Dyke: "I've never thought he has to be English, I think he needs to know the English game. 

"I am great fan of Arsene Wenger. I think he has done a brilliant job over 20 years and he would be a brilliant appointment."

It's the day after Sam Allardyce's 67-day reign as England manager came to an end and now attention has turned to who should be his successor.

One man heavily linked with the role will be stood in the Arsenal dugout tonight as they take on Basel in the Champions League and, if rumours are to believed, he was a target, external for the Football Association before Allardyce was appointed.  

So the question is, would Arsene Wenger be the right man for the job?

It is 20 years ago this week since Arsene Wenger was appointed Arsenal manager.

In the decade after he arrived at the Gunners, the Frenchman oversaw a period of sustained success as they collected three Premier League titles and four FA Cups, but a European trophy eluded him.

Then came Paris, 2006. 

Arsenal were just 14 minutes away from winning the Champions League when Barcelona scored twice to win what was then their second European title.    

The Gunners have never appeared in another Champions League final since.

Now, with rumours linking him to the England job, will that night in Paris prove to be as close as Wenger gets to the Champions League trophy with Arsenal?
