Ok maybe not yet.No it hasn’t.
If Sambi gets injured, Xhaka will probably drop into his position and ESR will play the Xhaka role.Ok maybe not yet.
But the way injuries are mounting up you should never think you’re above all options.
So Xhaka is expected to play in all competitions?If Sambi gets injured, Xhaka will probably drop into his position and ESR will play the Xhaka role.
Where did I say that?So Xhaka is expected to play in all competitions?
EL, League Cup, FA, Premier League
When does he get a rest?
Not to randomly drop into this conversation but Xhaka will be used like a soap until there's nothing left this season.So Xhaka is expected to play in all competitions?

I think that's a fair point especially considering we likely turned down the chance to sign Arthur though tbf I'm not sure he is suited to playing as a 6 in the prem?Douglas Luiz and Danilo shouldn't have been our only options. Should've had a loan option lined up as a fall back. Good transfer window overall, but a lousy way to end it.
Very good post while I'm not happy we didn't manage to bring in a DM I am more than pleased that the days of 8 CBs & a load of not up to standard wage takers aboard the bloated boat are well behind us.We have 22 players plus 3 goalkeepers when we count Nelson, Marquinhos and Smith, which we should for UEL because the group is easy apart from PSV.
It's interesting to take a look at City. They have 19 players plus 3 goalkeepers when you count Palmer. But City has UCL where the matches are tougher.
Kinda weird how Pep leaves his squad a bit short, but of course he has better quality players. I do think that having versatile players you can kinda have less players in the squad.

One of them made us listen to that god awful offbrand game show music all day which was just as bad.
Would’ve been carnage if the Arsenal admin had the balls to tweet this for no new signing.
TurnerFew things with this....
- The same midfield that ended up costing us top 4 because Partey kept getting injured?
- Moyes philosophy didn't work out too well last season when the europa League kicked in. I don't think they won a PL game after playing on Thursdays.
- What rotations? Thats the issue, we haven't got enough players for a cup team.
No Xhaka will not play CC nor first round or two FA cup.So Xhaka is expected to play in all competitions?

We ain't going to Zurich with 9/10 changes.Turner

If that above team isn't able to beat Zurich and Bodo in both matches then we don't deserve to be in the competition.
PSV we may need to have a stronger squad with Tierney, Xhaka and one of Martinelli/Saka starting but I'd expect us to qualify comfortably from that group hardly using the main players.
That’s the ideal plan but we always tend to underestimate the effort required.Turner

Think we will lose away to Bodo with that many changes- very different environmentWe ain't going to Zurich with 9/10 changes.
It'll include more starters.
Villa acting like they are a direct competitor to us. That type of attitude will be a negative to the club.Thanks for sharing.
I can't understand why they are so salty over ESR. Arsenal boy and he was always gonna sign a new contract here. Totally different situation to Luiz.
