Thanks Glass. I may do that too, given how horrible Baton Rouge traffic is.

No problem. What one are you considering?

Is there any place to watch live in the morning in Lafayette?

I just moved to BR. I'm in the History PhD program at LSU and live close to campus.

LesGeaux just posted that the game is on FXS1. I have that on the Cox sports and info pkg, so I assume I can watch live at home.

Looking at their website, they have last year's home, but the new road kit. If they indeed do not have the new home, I will be fine with the new road.

Not that I have to have the current stuff (this is my first jersey), but I never liked that big black sleeve stripe on the home kit last season.

Thanks again. I AM going to make it to Finn's for a match this season. My daughter lives in uptown NOLA, so I'll combine that with a visit.

And just for something different, I may walk over to the north gates and watch the match at Varsity tomorrow.

Love it. Chambers has really looked good. He has seamlessly fit into the squad.

Lots of manolas rumors. With him and chambers as 3rd and 4th string I'm fine with that.

Still need a cdm though.

Me too. Gives some excellent depth. We need as much cover as possible.

Kind of think Arsene could be done with Manolas.

The other rumor running around is that one more big name is basically waiting on us to definitely be in CL..

Also that khedira might go for as low as €10-15m which would offset paying him £120k/wk or so.

If it isn't Khedira, who might it be?

I want to see Chambers get a run at DM when Per gets back.

Reaching here but maybe there was something to the cavani rumors? Those are the two names I can think of.

Carvalho sounds great but I don't have a good feeling about that happening for some reason

SIAP - Someone on Twitter quoting Wenger: "Gibbs has a hamstring injury & will be out for 2-3 wks."

Now is when I wish we had Verm, who could cover there if Nacho gets nicked. Hopefully Debuchy or Callum can play there in a pinch. Flamini maybe.

Hate seeing Cesc in blue. I can't believe how good that 2009-10 team should've been if everyone would've just stayed patient. Also how is Schurrle playing for Chelsea but our Germans, especially Mertesacker and Podolski who didn't play all that much, aren't available until at least Everton, maybe even later?

jose gave him a week less of vacation. AW wants players to have at least 4 weeks off in the summer.

Chelsea can afford to lose Schurrle to an injury. We cannot afford to lose Per or Ozil.

Well, if the boss does indeed call on some or all of the Germans tomorrow, they will have only had one more day of vacation than Schurrle.
