Our medical team must be sacked! Many injuries

And Villa!
Good to see Sp**s are over performing. Looking forward to the collapse. Always happens around now

Injuries are a part of football.

Hate this bullshit statement people make.

Injuries are part of football, but some clubs can get a high frequency of them in a given period which costs them points.

If playing backup players is so great why do teams pay £50-150m on starting players to raise the level?

How much would Gabriel (1-2 months out), Ødegaard (essentially whole season out so far), and Saka (1 month out) cost on the open market? Probably a combined £350m of talent we have missed for a large stretch this season already.

 

[Red London]

Injuries are gonna cost us the league at this rate. We already have done a superb job to be top of the league while going through an attacking player injury crisis essentially all season.

I can’t see how we go through this congested schedule with a barebones attack while also missing our leader in defence. Getting Gyokeres back is so important but have no idea when he’s back, thought it was meant to be for Sp**s. All the returns are being delayed (Ødegaard, Havertz, Gyokeres, Martinelli).

Like what would have Liverpool done if they were missing VVD (Gabriel) and had to play Gravenberch (Gyokeres, Havertz) up top last season not to mention missing Salah (Saka) for large stretches and Macallister (Ødegaard) barely playing a minute. Need subs or depth? No, Gakpo (Madueke), Chiesa (Martinelli) are all out too. They wouldn’t have gotten top4 nevermind the PL.

We can cope if we get few attackers back our defense and base of midfield still very strong just need some depth offensively because the incoming games you won't survive with merino upfront

It's again against the odds season. Gabriel broke down, Havertz is still out, Gyokeres a doubt, Martinelli no words, Ødegaard still no words as well? They will all need to get up to speed quite quickly because the busy period is coming. Also they have resurected Oliver to **** us as soon as City got into some kind of form.

Still feels like we can do it.

The 2nd half of season our fixtures more easier because most big games at home also games against the like of Newcastle and villa at home. We dont have very long term injures but at least Madueke Gyo and Martinelli need to be available

Michael Oliver has entered the chat.

Dont get your hopes up people..

Yeah agreed. But it always feels like an uphill battle. W . At this point I'm praying for no more injuries more than getting players back haha.

This is actually the bigger issue. Eventually the injured players come back, but as soon as they do or even before they're back we get others join the list. After the game against Sunderland people were saying we could have all our injured players back soon (we were all hoping for this tbh). Now there is a small possibility we could have more players out for the Sp**s game than we had for Sunderland lol.

Ødegaard and Madueke would help with these. For build up and direct attacks respectively.

It’s so annoying. Even if you remove the whole pressure of trying to win the PL where every margin counts, we are being robbed as fans. The product that is Arsenal right now is not being allowed to show its stuff.

We have the best squad. Why is everyone so worried about few injuries

We are missing 5-6 senior forwards. That's why people are worried; we thought a decent amount were going to be back for NLD but now it looks like we'll barely have anyone back and we just lost Gabriel. We have to play Merino at CF *again*. The noise was that Gyokeres' issue was very minor and he would for sure be back for NLD but now this has shifted and he's a doubt to be back.

We can play trossard as striker, we can play young striker from the academy. We chose to play merino as striker

Merino is too slow to run behind the defenders

Trossard is balling right now at LW. Merino is better than any striker from the academy. Let's be real here.

 

[Rasmi]

Merino is too slow to run behind the defenders

Exactly Merino despite getting few goals kills everyone around him because he can’t run and drag any defenders so teams can sit compact without ever being disturbed. He’s hurting everyone around him
