I think Welbz is out for longer than that.

But looking that over, all the ligament and hamstring injuries ... I can't help but believe this annual run of injuries is a systemic training/conditioning problem with Arsenal

Extend the times by a month each, except for Alexis.

Ehhh, most teams are suffering similar injuries. Cazorla, Coquelin, Wilshere were all contact injuries. Arteta and Rosicky are just super old. Sanchez just got overworked, everyone knew it was happening but we couldn't not play him bc of all the other injuries. Only Welbeck is a weird medical stuff/training mystery issue.

Wilshere's always hurt. There is no mystery why his nickname is Jack Wheelchair.

Good read on Ozil.


Great article. Our players really seem to like each and I think that is big part to our success thus far.

Should have killed this one off early and cruised. But, it is Arsenal and we won't ever not try and score.

Well guys it looks like it's our league to lose. Great performance tonight except the lack of closing down on that Toure goal but I'm nitpicking. The Christmas period will test us as we are still waiting on some to get healthy. Also just a side note in that Campbell works so hard for the team and should have had an assist if Ramsey could have finished the opportunity. Keep playing him Arsene.

Campbell seems to have developed a rugged style. I'm still not crazy about the thought of him playing a continuous major role for a title-contending Arsenal, but he's filled in well with all the injuries.

I am no longer perpetually nervous when he is on the pitch.

Campbell and Flamini are playing roles guys like Anderson, Fletcher, O'Shea, Ji-Sung etc, played on so many of United's title teams. 3-4 WC players, 5-6 guys who are elite at their positions in the epl, and then 1-2 guys who give it 120% and fit well within the system and locker room.

I can see that.

The Flamini, Ramsey pairing in midfield needs to end very quickly. I know we have no other options there but they could have easily cost us the match. Just like the commentators were saying Ramsey needs to stop going so far forward, especially up 2-0. Flamini is not athletic or skilled enough to cover the space Ramsey was leaving today and that is not a shot at Flamini.


ETA: but motherfricking Ozil

Amazing. He is Wenger's lucky rabbit foot. Keep him around.
