Was just reading the Gabriel news. We’re somehow going to come back from this international break with our attackers back but defenders all out

 

[Grandolph]

Ffs! Glad we went for squad depth, instead of spending the whole budget on a LW that doesn't exist.

 

[Synical]

Gutted at this news. Gabriel is always MOTM for the NLD

 

[Kuroske]

Now that the dust has settled, who came back injured from the international games? Gabriel, Calafiori and Timber?

Calafiori is expected to be fine and Timber I think was a cut from a bad tackle and will presumably be fine too (he played on after it).

So are we starting to point any fingers with these muscular injuries this season or are we just unlucky?

It's starting to feel less like luck and more like something in our process.

I feel like it’s been discussed. Muscle injuries are already fairly common. Combine that with our high intensity play, lack of rotation, and most of the first 11 being starters for their international teams… recipe for more.

Just looking at the fixture congestion until the end of Jan. OMG, we're not going to make it

 

[Diesel]

So for positive news who is back? Or will we not know until Friday

 

[Aussie_gunner123]

Very disappointing to hear that one of our major leaders Gabriel is out now, not as bad though with our defensive depth we've got this season though, Hincapie or Mosquera can easily come in.

At least our attacking side might be good to go finally, have a few of them ready to go again though & hopefully might score more from open play with our front line depth back next few games. Might struggle to score goals on set pieces now though, anyway, I heard some news that Timber got an injury playing for the Netherlands, is that true or just the media making stuff up, other Timber brother though if its right & be available for Sp**s?

 

[boonthegoon]

any updates?

 

[Hleb's Sirush]

So it seems Ødegaard will be back for the Bayern game. If I heard it correctly Arteta said Gyokeres and Havertz might make it for the Chelsea game.

Word is some players are playing in a behind closed doors friendly today

I thought Jesus was late December ....

Never thought I'd ask this question, but

Do we know the latest on Trossard

All Arteta said after the game was "He felt something and we didn't want to take the risk"

He said approximately the same about Gyokeres after the Burnley match. And he's been out for what, 3+ weeks now?

What happened in the BTS match last night? There was a lot of smoke about some of our injured seniors playing a part (I guess Jesus, maybe Gyok/Kai).
