Koscielny, Mustafi, Mavropanos, Bellerin, Monreal and Ozil have all returned to full training.

by El Gunner Wed Jan 09, 2019 5:04 pm

So no CB signing this month Razz

Awful

Holding and now Bellerin
were these avoidable by managing players better between matches or their load at training sessions?
this was something we would hope to prevent post Wenger

I'm No expert but questions must be asked

by Jay29 Sun Jan 27, 2019 4:39 pm

Sokratis out until the end of February.

Koscielny could have a broken jaw.

It never ends, does it?

by Sina Sun Jan 27, 2019 4:44 pm

Mavropanic time

by RealGunner Thu Jan 31, 2019 6:21 pm

Koscielny back in full training

AMN and Mkhi being assessed for City

by Jay29 Wed Feb 13, 2019 10:25 am

Sokratis is back in full training ahead of schedule.

XHAKA, Ozil and Aubameyang are in full training again as well.

Ramsey is a doubt for Thursday with a ~~lil bit transfer niggle~~ knee injury.

Welbeck, Holding and Bellerin obviously out for the foreseeable future.

Since we don't have a PL game this weekend, I'm expecting a full strength* team against BATE.

* Three at the back with our best players on the bench, obviously.

What a sight! @RobHolding95 back on the field with our under-23s earlier today

So good to see you back out there, Rob pic.twitter.com/PN5cuitgSE

September is still a while away. Same for Bellerin.

We will have to start the season with AMN at RB and Chambers at CB

by Jay29 Sat Aug 03, 2019 6:45 pm

It sucks, but can't take the risk with ACL injuries. They have to build their match fitness up and being defenders, it's hard to bring them on late in games or pull them off after 60 mins.

There's some big games to get through without them, though. Liverpool and United away, and Spurs at home.

Latest Arsenal team news update ahead of Sunday. Late decision on Lacazette and Pepe. Bellerin scheduled to be back in full training in October. pic.twitter.com/mVfREvqL2h

Ozil and Kolasinac out of the Newcastle game due to "further security incidents".

by Sina Fri Aug 09, 2019 5:51 pm

Lol league should start in September,half of our squad aint ready for gods sake

by Jay29 Fri Aug 09, 2019 6:17 pm

I think Laca and Pepe will make the bench on Sunday at least. Ceballos wasn't mentioned in the update so I assume he's okay, too.

This situation with Kolasinac and Ozil is incredibly unfortunate, though.

As for Newcastle, I think the squad will be:

Leno - Maitland-Niles, Luiz, Sokratis, Monreal - XHAKA, Guendouzi - Mkhitaryan, Willock, Nelson - Aubameyang

Subs: Martinez, Mustafi, Chambers, Torreira, Ceballos, Pepe, Lacazette

what is this supposed to mean? It was a one time incident, and nothing happened to them.

Also, so we're stuck with AMN at RB until October :facepalm:

we'll lose so much ground until we actually have a full fit team

by Jay29 Fri Aug 09, 2019 6:37 pm

The full Arsenal statement:

Mesut Ozil and Sead Kolasinac will not be part of our squad for our opening match against Newcastle United following further security incidents which are being investigated by the police.

The welfare of our players and their families is always a top priority and we have taken this decision following a discussion with the players and their representatives.

We are liaising with the police and are providing the players and their families with ongoing support.

We look forward to welcoming the players back to the squad as soon as possible.

We will not be making any further comment on the matter.

I'm just speculating, but it sounds like they've either received threats or, and I hope this isn't the case, another incident has taken place. Either way, something has happened recently to make the players and their families feel unsafe.

EDIT:

Understand Ozil and Kolasinac are both safe and unharmed - but they have been targeted more than once, in separate incidents over the past couple of days.

Gang wars most likely.

by RealGunner Fri Aug 09, 2019 7:02 pm

Fair to say Mavrapanos won't be at this club for long.

Fraud

by mani88 Sat Aug 10, 2019 5:14 pm

Whenever I think of Mavropanos I keep getting flashes of Rosicky Sad

I feel he will turn out good if only Injuries don't get the better of him.

by Jay29 Fri Sep 13, 2019 6:35 pm

Lacazette out until October with an ankle injury.

Could be the same injury he picked up in pre-season.

Time for Nelson to shine.

by El Gunner Fri Sep 13, 2019 7:09 pm

^^ yea it's the persistent ankle issue he's had this season. Hmm, i don't know about Nelson after seeing him so far this season. Hoping Martinelli also gets the opportunity in that left position.

by RealGunner Fri Sep 13, 2019 7:52 pm

Huge miss in terms of goals but yea it's a big chance for Nelson and Martinelli.

Won't be surprised if we see Ozil return though in the 11

by RealGunner Thu Jan 02, 2020 5:29 pm

Chambers out for 9 months...

by mani88 Wed Jun 17, 2020 10:27 pm

Bad days are over. Worse days are here.
Xhaka injured after getting hit by the ball. Mari injured. Luiz Suspended for next few games. Can we play Saliba now???
