    Wenger never makes wholesale changes for the FA Cup though.
    Four changes at most i'd say.

    He should though

    Our first 11 are fcuked after the Xmas run

    I'd be surprised at that back 4, we'll see one of Mert or Koscielny I reckon

    And rightly so too! Just because we're making a good run at the title this season doesn't mean we shouldn't be trying to retain our cup.

    Zero complaints about the performance.

    Since Sanchez got injured, we're been down to basically 10 outfield players with a couple of extra options in defence.

    Played 7, won 6.

    This is the **** we've been complaining about us not doing for the last 10 years.

    I probably asked at the wrong time as I think it was just before the final whistle and it quickly got lost in the celebrations and talk of grinding out results but doe Campbell only have 6months on his contract?

    Once Alexis is back I reckon we'll start steamrolling teams again. Really wanna see Walcott start up front again, Giroud hasn't been the may west lately

    No he signed a new contract last season

    I'm sorry but all we can expect for a player for arsenal is he works hard?

    That's bs.

    Many arsenal players worked hard but we're slated for been poor in the past.

    He'll start banging them in soon. Then we'll all wonder how we could have done it without him.

    Absolute starter in every game, for me.

    Giroud is a terrific player but as you have said is very inconsistent, but he isn't the only one, I would put Ramsey, Walcott, Mertesacker, Chamberlain (although he seems fairly poor all the time these days) and Cazorla in that category too. If we want to win the league we need to keep the performances at a consistently high level, although I do understand it is hard especially with all our injuries. Cant wait for Wilshere to come back, he brings a total different dynamic to our midfield.

    Giroud with 2 assists in 2 matches. That's Ozil form !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,608 ✭✭✭✭cson


    As with the Leicester one; the Watford result looks better and better with time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,382 ✭✭✭✭greendom


    Basel have signed what would seem to be Elneny's replacement - Swede Alexander Frannson. Seems it a matter of when not if for the Egyptian's arrival at the Emirates.

    How did Sanchez play today?

    he was surplus to requirements. and still injured.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,752 ✭✭✭Mr Blobby


    According to Arseblog Debuchy is off too West Brom on loan.

    ****e.
    Pretty much invisible the whole game... Like he wasn't even there.

    Really? Not sure how I feel about that. He hasn't been brilliant but I can't imagine we would get someone to cover who'd be as good??

    I know he wants games before the euros but I'd still hold onto him I think

    I'd say chambers will be our cover

    Maybe we'll be recalling Jenkinson? I'd still like us to have a senior Rb in the squad though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,031 ✭✭✭Soups123


    It's an odd call, we are chasing a league. He is our only RB cover. We should be putting the club first next 5 months


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,031 ✭✭✭Soups123

    That's a scary thought though, not sure why we'd risk this

    It's just another sign of Wenger not being ruthless enough when it counts. He always has the player's best interests at heart.
