Player Fitness Watch

With so many sort of injuries, I lose count of which one is easier or harder. Tendon, cartilage, knee, ankle, back, ligaments, etc....

How long is groin injury supposed to take ?

The only one that I am certain is hamstring injury which usually take 3-4 weeks for player to get back.

Wenger say it's small problem so hopefully he'll make it against Sp**s if not then surely he'll be back after the international break.

Hector Bellerin is "a doubt" for Sundays' game against #THFC The #AFC full-back has a "short-term [groin]" injury

 

[SA Gunner]

Look, the bright side of it all is that we have players to fill in right now, and it allows these players to rest as well.

We will be truly ****ed if Le Coq, Mesut, Kos or Alexis go down.

 

[Lady_Gooner]

These injuries are crazy ;(

 

[albakos]

Huge loss for Bellerin on NLD. I reckon Son or Eriksen will love playing v Debuchy.

I won't be surprised if by Sunday there will be another one going out. Every season we seem to go through periods where we get injuries so quick that all panic alarms go off.

4 muscle injuries in a span of few days, strange...

Groin strains are funny and have a tendency to recur with increased severity if rushed. Possible to play on them but both painful and likely to have long term consequences if not dealt with correctly. Better to lose him for two games and have him for 5 months than rush him back. Should be back before the intn'l break.

Kos isn't a huge worry for me but he may not be 100% for Tottenham but it'll be close.

Don't quite freak out yet guys. If Özil or Sanchez get a light workload over the intn'l break we'll be able to both rotate and push on for the rest of the season with little worries.

Should have 5 players back by WBA with 2 more over the following 3 weeks (including Theo).

Ride out the NLD without injury and we'll be in great position.

Done trying to be optimistic about these injuries. They are always worse then they seem. We'll probably get at least another one over the international break and I wouldn't be surprised if someone picks up a knock in the derby. We'll be lucky if 1 of our RW options is back after the break as well IMO.

I don't care if everyone is fit come January, if we don't strengthen in that window we deserve everything that's coming to us I'm afraid. No excuses!

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

When these Groin and Hamstring injures will leave us alone it really unacceptable. are we overload our players in the training?

in 2 weeks we got 4 players injured from Groin and Hamstring problems we seriously need to figure out what the reason of these type of injures why we always suffer from these injures every season.

Chris Coleman of the Wales NT has said that he's not fond of Wenger's comments about Ramsey. Had Wenger called him before the Euro-qualifiers, he would have gladly talked about Ramsey. Coleman didn't hear anything, so that's a green light to play him.

Coleman is absolutely right imo. Wenger should be more strict and ask (read: demand) that they only play 45 minutes, or not at all. If Wenger doesn't say anything, he has no right to question the Wales team selection and blaming Ramsey's injury on that.

Arsène really needs step up his game here, could really help with injuries.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Agree in the useless international friendlies our players should not play more then 45 minutes.

 

[gunner4lyfe]

We go through this EVERY October-November but does anything change? No, full speed ahead for Wenger like it has never happened before.

Kos is injured and a doubt for Sunday.

If Özil, Sanchez & Le Coq don't get a rest they will too.

The issue was Ramsey played the full 90mins vs Andorra when Wales' qualification was secured the matchday prior. Ramsey had no reason to play in that game and even if Coleman wanted to reward him as the stadium was described to be in party mode for 90mins, Ramsey sure as hell didnt need to play the full 90.

He runs and runs and runs, he gave everything to get Wales to France this summer, so take him off shortly after half/dont play him in a meaningless game all together....Arsenal pay his wages ffs.

Bet if Wenger plays Ramsey as he does normally, he picks up an injury at the tail end of the season and he misses the Euros, Coleman will be ***** and moan about him not getting any rest from Arsène. (*touch wood* that doesn't happen) The Andorra game was completely meaningless yet Coleman still played him, Arsène/Arsenal doesnt have the luxury of meaningless games....unless we win the league with a few games to go.

Sounds like Özil is getting rested by Low for the upcoming internationals.

I feel for him a little when you look at the fixtures we've had. We've probably played 8 of the top 10 teams in the PL in 11 games,and then you've got Bayern twice and trips to Sp**s and Sheffield in the CC. Its a very tough first quarter or so, with two international breaks thrown it.

Laurent Koscielny is in line to play in Sunday’s north London derby against Tottenham Hotspur but Arsène Wenger, the Arsenal manager, will make a late decision over the defender’s fitness.

Tomas Rosicky has had a boost in his long-running battle to regain fitness after knee surgery in early August, with his specialist clearing him to resume running work next week. Rosicky was in Munich on Thursday morning for the appointment and he hopes to be back in action in January.

We go through the same **** every year though-it's bad planning.

There's that obviously when 25% of your squad is injury prone, but we tried to rotate and the fixtures didn't leave much room to do so. We played FOUR away games in a row in September, and then had Utd, international break and the Bayern double header.
