just a pull, we good

 

[Penn_]

Please no panic buying as many are advocating. Will set us back.

 

[King87]

How long he out for?

 

[Gooner Zig]

Four to six weeks according to that. Pretty much as expected but still ****ty.

4-6 weeks is what I had mentally prepared for. Sigh, still stings though. I don't know how we're going to cope.

 

[Taylor Gang Gunners]

Maybe a change of shape whilst he’s out?

Jesus Havertz
Ødegaard
Merino Rice
Partey

Something like that?

 

[HollandGooner]

It was only a matter of time before he got an injury like this we should have been more carefull. hopefully he can make a speedy recovery.

 

[Synical]

I’m a bit confused as to why people are saying we need to force in a Saka replacement when he is returning right at the end of the January window? Maybe a week after it shuts.

So the person who we are expecting to step in due to this emergency won’t really be saving the day for more than a couple weeks before he is back?

Don't you come with your 'logical analysis'. We don't do that here

 

[TH14shahriar]

Nwaneri RW who says no?

 

[Bloodbather]

Maybe a change of shape whilst he’s out?

Jesus Havertz
Ødegaard
Merino Rice
Partey

Something like that?

I'd go for a Christmas tree, 4-3-2-1.

Jesus up front with Havertz and Trossard or Martinelli roaming behind him. Partey at 6, Rice on the left and Ødegaard on the right. Calafiori and Timber allowed to go forward to bring width.

Torn hamstring according to Arteta. Probably looking at 8 weeks minimum.

 

[MikelHadADream]

That’s the league over I reckon.

It was bound to happen with Saka, the over reliance on his is unacceptable really.

 

[OnlyOne]

Damn. That changes things, torn hamstring you’re looking at end of March.

I think we’ll go to the market, Sterling knee as well.

I don’t think we win the league now.

Where does it quote Mikel confirming it's 'torn'? Can't see any direct quotes.

Have faith. Jesus is alive again

 

[MikelHadADream]

Have faith. Jesus is alive again

He’d be my first choice at RW but doubt Mik will play him there.

 

[Mitch]

Talk about overreaction.

We should be able to cope without Saka for 4-6 weeks.

[Rex Caudillo]

Time to buy Cunha or Duran imo.

 

[OnlyOne]

Just wanna say a big thanks to former sporting director Edu for having a full year to find a Saka rotation option and delivering a Raheem Sterling deadline day deal loan.

Saka’s Hamstring is on you

 

[Red London]

Okay so now we would need to sign a winger if we want any chance of the title.

But I still don’t want a crappy stopgap if it blocks a marquee signing in the summer.
