Re: Arsenal Pre-season

Wenger: "The Champions League tie is a big task for us. They have lots of experience."

Ramsey: "This(City) game is a good opportunity for us to test ourselves before the season starts."

Wenger: "The side for #AFCvMCFC will close to the one for Villa next week but there are some players like Rosicky who are not here."

Wenger: "A sell-out shows the popularity of the Premier League out here and it will add to the game tomorrow."

what happened to rosicky ??

by 6unner Fri Aug 09, 2013 6:03 pm

Wenger will probably be saving him for the end of the season to try and save our 4th place trophy again this year.

When's the match?

by Jay29 Sat Aug 10, 2013 2:47 pm

Kicks off at 15:00 UK time.

Vermaelen, Monreal, Rosicky and Sanogo all missing from the squad. Former three are injured, not sure why Sanogo isn't there.

by RealGunner Sat Aug 10, 2013 2:55 pm

Sanogo was either called up to the U20 squad. Or he has a hamstring injury

Two things i saw on twitter

Ramsey with some boss contributions to this match.

Giroud

by Chumlum Sat Aug 10, 2013 4:23 pm

Giroud scores a terrific chip, and a few minutes later, 6'4" Giroud shoulders 4'9" Navas out of the way. No foul given. Very Happy
