cheers very helpful.

No worries. I just remembered being concerned about the same thing myself one time!

I wonder will we see the Ox in the middle with Ramsey out right. Thinking being that Bellerin's game has suffered since Ramsey has been out, they were dovetailing nicely there for the first 10 games or so.

Any word on Santi yet? His looked like a bang to the knee, which ordinarily heals quickly, as opposed to ligament damage! Although, this being Arsenal, he probably picked up a concussion and a temporary paralysis too!!!

I see Theo's return is not the 5th, but the 13th now! FFS

Heading over for the match this Saturday and cant wait. 2nd time bringing my young fella.

I'm usually a bad omen - last game I travelled for was Monaco home :-(

Really REALLY hope we don't drop points to Sam.

This is a long shot, but if anyone has spare tickets for the Newcastle game on 2nd Jan can you PM me please?

Wenger knew he was injured and left him on. Have to wonder has that contributed to the severity of the injury.

I think so.

Cazorla stayed on the pitch despite suffering the injury in the first minute of the second half, although he was struggling to run and only stayed on because Wenger had used his three substitutes. “The worrying thing was that it got worse,” Wenger said after the game.

Expect the ole .......... will be back by January.
And then the old mysterious relapse when the window closes.

OR the old " there is nobody suitable available" excuse.

When he came back from that back injury, he was like a new signing.

Ajfunky · 02-12-2015 07:52PM

So the brisk November weather has battered half our players again. Ballix.

Santi is a major blow. A truly great player who has kept us ticking at the back like a mini pirlo this last year. We really don't have anyone with the skill and passing grace to fill in his boots, Ramsey would want to be training night and day with ozil to fill his shoes now.

So as has been said, this has to be us in te transfer market now - and honestly I hope Wenger had started making his calls before this went public, as any player we wanted jus jumped up in price after this announcement.

But unfortunately, IF we don't manage to get through the champions league, it's going to make players far harder to convince.

So who's even available? Anyone know I any player fallouts around Europe? Will the Valencia team want to play under Gary Neville?!

There's a saving there.

I think Wenger needs to realise that the value of soccer players has inflated immensely over the past years, and that there is no such thing as good value anymore, unless you spend a year trying to find one. Santi's injury is by far the biggest blow imo. December could be even worse than November.

I'm a fan of Wenger but his management recently has been woeful. I'm sure we can buy the majority of midfielders out there if we splash the cash. I also think that Wenger should recall Gnabry from West Brom as he's not getting any game time. He has a better chance starting for us than them.

MaxPower89 · 02-12-2015 09:38PM

Hard to believe in the space of 2 weeks our central midfield pairing are out for months, you couldn't make it up. From a selfish pov I'll miss watching Santi play, he's been so good for us.

It's up to Wenger now to sort it and get a new dynamic in the middle of the park. Its a pity Wilshere isn't fit to come into the team. A signing or 2 in Jan now are a must.

Klopp turning pool around and he hasn't even signed a player yet. Another team we'll have to contend with no doubt

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. He should've been Wenger's replacement.

keano_afc · 02-12-2015 10:02PM

Big time. Raging we didnt get him. Still, a couple of years at Liverpool and he'll want to move to a big club.
