Great news guys. We opened a state of the art medical center on our training grounds. This replaces the shack where we used to service injured players in previously with leeches, blood letting, etc.

How is it that other teams can juggle four strikers at a time but anyone at Arsenal just gets smothered by RVP? If for no other reason, we have to keep Chamakh as insurance for the inevitable RVP injury.

We have a weird team. It's like Wenger's only confident in RVP. And to be fair, his form the last three years has been amazing. In his last 108 games for Arsenal, he's contributed to 90 goals through either goals or assists. Chamakh has never been a scorer, he's a target man who can run his arse off.

The leeches and blood letting shack was a joke. I think.

No joke, I heard we still had a working apothecary at Highbury. Glad to see they joined the modern world.

Nico Yennaris, a Corsican gangster if I ever saw one, is going to start training with the first team now that Sagna is out. May see him on the bench in the coming months



Speaking of the bench, it's really maddeing how AOC isn't even included in our squad. His form is electric. Seems like he's scored in almost every game in recent memory with England or Arsenal.

Also I'm thinking about selling my amneotic fluid/stem cell smoothies to the Arsenal medical staff. As long as they don't need to source-check my supplies I should be okay.

Jenkinson out 2 weeks.

Lille won't sell Hazard for less than £40mil. Oh well. It was nice when we could dream.

Watt and Henderson given extensions.

On May 1st 2011 Aaron Ramsey scored the only goal in a 1-0 win over Manchester United, the next day Osama bin Laden was killed. On October 19th, 2011 Aaron Ramsey scored the only goal in a 1-0 win over Marseille, the next day Muammar Gaddafi was killed. Who will be his next victim?

I'd be surprised if either makes it here. Surprising they were given extensions.

AOC had a tweet about Terrance Hayes' Lighthead but he seems to have deleted it.

Yeah I was surprised since Watt was seemingly on the way out. Even though he's scored 5 in 6 Reserve matches, I wouldn't think that would have changed Wenger's opinion of him. Maybe he's settling into a role up top. I would guess that its just they think they can sell him to a lower club and make a profit and would rather him not leave for free.

Was Gaddafi an Arsenal fan too? Maybe they were so excited by big Arsenal wins that they let their guard down.

I wish like hell we would buy a competent backup for RvP. We are so dependent on him it is scary.
