Battle! Arsenal vs Manchester City: Player-by-player comparison of the Community Shield opponents

Central midfield

Arsenal: Mikel Arteta

Manchester City: Fernandinho

No real contest here, with Manchester City star Fernandinho proving a terrific signing last summer as he joined from Shakhtar Donetsk for around £28m. The Brazilian’s energy and quality on the ball make him a great partner for Yaya Toure, and a cut above Arsenal’s Mikel Arteta, for all his experience and quality.

Vote: Fernandinho
