The Arsenal Thread

Gabriel and Saliba.

Own goals are probably the second best in the team.

It’s like an extra player on the pitch. Arteta finds anew way to cheat.

FIFY.

There’s fuck all Arsenal can do about it then.

Exactly.

End of the day we match them in the same fixtures and effectively it’s still 6pts plus whatever happens in the game in hand if anything. And if truth be told there is enough potential slip ups in both fixture lists though as said it’s easier as things stand

Win our next 5 matches and Arsenal are at least 12 points behind (likely more) and they will fall away.
All that matters is 3 points in each of our next games starting with the derby. We don’t have to consider Arsenal until we play them in May and they give us a guard of honour.

Havertz is out for the season.

Fully expect them to rush Saka back now.

I remember the days when a hamstring injury would rule out a player for three to four weeks, now it’s three to four months and you often hear the mentions of surgery.

Michael Owen?

I’ve heard Tena Man helps?

A hamstring strain is weeks a tear has always been months or longer look at the issues it caused Owen. As a tear requires the muscle reattaching together.

I though a strain was a tear? Basically the same thing but degrees of severity?

A strain is classed as a minor tear or the stretching of the muscle. A tear is classed as a full tear or rapture of the muscel.

I thought Muscel was a place in Romania? Basically the same spelling but degrees of pedantry?

Hard to see how they can navigate the rest of the season with those injuries now, going to be forced to rely on youth players or use the likes of Tierney or Zinchenko in unfamiliar forward roles to give those who actually still have legs some rest. Wouldn’t be a surprise if both West Ham and Forest get results against them in the coming weeks.

Arsenal fans online seem to be suggesting that Merino might be their best fit at CF now :joy:

If your tactic was to score goals through the way we do or even say others do then perhaps.

But they’ve been pretty woeful to watch for a while now and it seems they have very little beyond that.

I recebtly presented a paper to the Royal College of Liniment Sniffers on the efficacy of the current grading system used for muscle injuries.

I proposed a four-tier colloquial scale that will allow the common man to have greater certainty about the condition of their favourite player’s hammy.

  • Feels like a bee stung me
  • Get me off, boss
  • She’s fucking rooted, the cunt
