More like Jesus is close to being able to play the entire 90 mins, not that he isnt fit to start

Still trossard hasn't done anything wrong to be dropped

 

[Synical]

Yep. Designed to keep live attendances up. Doubt it'll last much longer though.

That's great when we can't get tickets for love nor money

Arteta says Jesus close to full fitness. So not fully fit yet. Then trossard it is.

Jesus was planned to play something like 65 minutes in the last game, but because of the two injuries, there was only one substitution time to use in the the second half. So he had to substitute Jesus out earlier, as you can do it this season without losing a substitution time from the second half.

Trossard played in two games in the international break, and Jesus has been able to train more and more during the break. So pretty sure Jesus will start.

I concur, I think he will start as he will be fresher and itching to play.

Not sure of the turnaround time until Liverpool game yet but I would think trossard to start that one and jesus on as an impact sub.

I think as well if we are winning against Leeds then esr will get more minutes to keep Nelli fresh, latter has to be a guaranteed starter against TTA.

Think Jesus might start this, would be amazing if he can break his goal drought too.

A dry spell is fine too as long as he does what he is best at, setting up everyone around him to penetrate

Great examples. A game where we played with ten men behind the ball for a lot of it and a game where the manager thought it was necessary to sub him at half time.

@ExtjExhtts

You've jinxed him now!

 

[Hleb's Sirush]

What the hell has happened? loads of our matches have not been televised now.

Think they saved the televised slots for the Man Utd games and their incredible title charge.

 

[Jackie_Treehorn]

I'm gonna back Holding to do a job for us against Leeds. He's often found a way to play well in big games. I think of his handling of starting two FA Cup finals, and I tell myself he's perfectly capable of helping us win a bunch of these upcoming games. I'd still be worried about Anfield and Etihad, but let's cross those bridges when we come to them. Honestly I'd love few things more than seeing Saliba rested to take care of his back and Holding play well enough for us to lift that trophy in May.

 

[Synical]

So happy the PL is back....can't wait!

Now to find a decent stream

 

[DavidHillier]

I ain't feeling confident about this one. Don't know why. Pessimistic Gooner.

 

[Rasmi]

Without Saliba our season is legit over

 

[Tom Mix]

Live games are too expensive. We have the most expensive season ticket in the league. It won't last at all.

Second most expensive.

I just realised that the clocks change here (NZ) exactly at kick off time, I’m going to struggle setting the alarm for the right time. Either will wake up an hour early or potentially miss the first half. I’m thinking 02:59 would do it but would appreciate some help.

Massive respect to get up at those hours to see the game. Guess it would be somewhat off to have a pint with the game!

I’ve been pretty lucky this season with the league games either being in the weekend or before work on a Monday, haven’t missed many.

Arsenal going for the title, when their star Frenchman (Pires then and Saliba now) gets injured and it's up to our model-esque player with elite hair (Freddie then and Rob now) to step up and get us over the line.

We have seen this before lads, we got dis title, no matter what happens with William...calm
