Saturday is infinitely more important. We need to focus on the other prizes.

i'd be beyond shocked if Ozil, Giroud or Ramsey started. Giroud won't even make the bench, in all likelihood. I think it will be:

Fabianksi
Jenks-Per-TV5-Monreal
Wilshere-Hayden
Gnabry-Rosicky-Ryo
Bendtner

subs to include Akpom, Eisfeld, Bellerin, and maybe Zelalem (who apparently is back to training after his injury. Probably not fit enough to even make the bench though)

would be really nice to rest Santi, Ozil, Ramsey, and Giroud before 'Pool. Jack too, but his workload has been less of late. I think he could stand to start tomorrow and Saturday.

I hope that none of those even make the bench. It will be too tempting to sub them in.

They all could use a week off before Pool. Should be a helluva match on Saturday.

Gnabry got an ankle knock Saturday and is a game-time decision, pretty much. Zelalem not yet fit, but he is back in training and will play 45mins for the U-18s this week. Eisfeld has a back injury. If Eisfeld and Gnabry are out, I imagine Olsson will start. AW said Frimmy lacks match sharpness (i wonder why?) so he won't start. Hayden will be involved.

Chelsea's second sting team is so strong. Imagine if we win against them with our youth team tomorrow.

I really don't want to go deep in the League Cup. We get tempted to win it and play guys when the UCL, BPL and even the FA Cup mean a lot more.

Ahead of the League Cup clash with Chelsea on Tuesday, Arsenal midfielder Emmanuel Frimpong has spoken out on Twitter about a lack of opportunities.


Frimpong will not feature in the match and is yet to make an appearance at all for the Gunners this season.

When asked why the Ghana international was not in the squad the response from the player was ‘Lol, I wanna laugh.’

@IAMFRIMPONG26 Why ain’t you in the squad for tomorrow’s game?

— John (@John_AFC_Gooner) October 28, 2013

Sometimes I wish I was white and English #realtalk

— Emmanuel Frimpong (@IAMFRIMPONG26) October 28, 2013

To suggest that the 21-year-old is not getting game time under Arsene Wenger due to the starlet’s race and nationality is a strong call.

Especially when Wenger has actually been criticised in the past for not fielding enough English talent in the first team.

In fact since Martin Keown and Ray Parlour retired in 2004 just one white, English player – Jack Wilshere – has been fielded by the Frenchman.

If Frimpong is suggesting racism then the African could probably do with checking the recent history over the Gunners before making those accusations.

The youngster has failed to break into the first team in north London after loan spells with Wolverhampton Wanderers, Charlton Athletic and Fulham in the past few years.

Wenger clearly doesn’t rate Frimpong – based on the player’s ability – and tweets like this are hardly endearing to the 64-year-old.
