    We should keep an eye on Butlands development at Stoke. Could be a long term replacement for Cech in 5 years.

    Agree with Wenger that the youngsters that played tonight are nowhere near up to the standard, not yet anyways. Always disappointed to lose, especially by 3 goals, but it was our defensive performance that annoys me the most. Just abysmal defending from set pieces. No creativity either in the side, Giroud would of as well being in the stands because the lad go no service whatsoever, Campbell was very tame but to be fair to him I think hes is a player that needs a run of games in the team.

    Even if it was a friendly it was not good enough and they let the jersey down.

    Misses the game as was playing football. All about the injuries really, couldn't give a sh1t about the result.

    How was Campbell? Can he play RW for a few weeks?

    Or can Bellerin move further forward.

    Other option is Flamster but moving Santi out of the middle might apply the infamous handbrake I fear.

    I reckon start Campbell ... But I didn't see tonight. But surely with a fresh Ozil and Caz working with him...?

    Really down to the bare bones now. Need to avoid any more injuries.

    In case you're getting depressed about it though, remember that early last year, we started with teams like tonight's in the league.

    Move Sanchez right and put Gibbs to the left? Dont think we should be moving players around that are doing well in their positions lately (Bellerin,Santi,Ozil)

    Not overly bothered about anything other than the injuries... hopefully they're minor. Was painful enough viewing such an unfamiliar team in an unfamiliar jersey, honestly a million miles from the exploits of the past week in every way but just goes to show you can't get away with that many changes against a top half Championship team no matter who you are.

    Also, it's safe to say summer is over by now, can we get the title fixed or what?

    I think we have no choice but to start Campbell, the more we move around the more we disrupt.

    We need Cazorla deep otherwise nobody sets the play.

    Would hate to see the wheels come loose because of injuries again

    A far cry from the passion on display from our defenders against Everton. The only plus tonight is that it wasn't a league game and stronger players can come into the line up for whats a massive game v Swansea the weekend.

    Would hate to see Monrael or Bellerin injured if we have to rely on what we saw tonight though.
    At least we have Gabriel for the middle.

    Gabriel is surely first choice along with Koscielny now?

    Yep that's a worry, we need to try keep it together until Nov 8th, then by the game after that Nov 21 we should have Theo, Ox, Ramsey and Arteta back you hope.

    If we can deal with the next 3 games I'd be confident of what we can do this season

    It's heading that way but Mert has had great games recently, he always looks poor in a second string defense.

    Him Kos and Gab are 3 excellent options

    Theos didnt look too bad but still obviously a major doubt for this weekend.

    Its a disaster injury wise. Really dont care too much about the result!

    What makes you think Theo is not too bad? His looked worse than Ox I thought

    Was it? I was watching it in the pub so could be wrong. Just though it looked precautionary.

    Biggest disappointment about tonight is the injuries, hopefully they aren't too bad. Defensively we were very poor, but the team just didn't look bothered. We have been flying in the league and that's the main thing.

    It is worrying that certain squad players were so poor, so as always injuries will be key to see how well we do this season, but you could say the same about any team. We were never going to win this cup anyway, so no real loss for me. Fair play to Sheffield Wednesday though, not taking anything away from them.

    Ah OK, we recall Gnabry for the next few weeks.

    Still an awesome first team but little or no midfield or attacking subs.

    Start the usual team but with Gnabry on right.

    Then defensive subs

    Flamini > One of the mids
    Gibbs > Sanchez

    In terms of injury crises, it's not that bad.

    Just no more!!!

    Can we? If he is recalled, no point sending him back there!

    Has it come out that the ox was struggling with his hammy before that match? He always does a few hamstring stretches before coming in to the pitch, but last night he was doing some crazy single-leg deadlifts in the centre circle right before kick-off. Struck me as pretty strange.

    The one thing I got out of tonight is Debuchy couldn't give a toss. Flamini wasn't far behind either. You look at that back four and there's two England internationals, a French international and a world cup winner there. Now I know they don't play together each week but we couldn't even do the basics last night. The first two goals were bad but the third just took the biscuit. If I saw my 8 year old nephew leave someone totally unmarked like your man was for the third he'd be grounded for a month - SHOCKING DEFENDING and I think it was very wrong of Wenger to say that the young players aren't up to it. His experienced players let him down big time last night.

    All these added injuries will be putting pressure on the medical staff - Arsenal should troll Mourinho by hiring Eva :pac:
