Signed a nice 10-pointer though

Gary Neville will be the 29th so he does not count

Arsenal linked WIth Ruben neves. Liked him from I've seen so far

Cheating slightly now.

Graeme Sourness, Steve Nicol, Steve Archibald, Roy Aitken and Paul Sturrock were in the Scotland squad he managed at the 1986 World Cup.

No point buying players just for the sake of it. If everyone is healthy they have plenty of cover in all positions.

If everyone was healthy they wouldn't need cover.

Good win for QPR. Bein has been hooking it up with the QPR matches this year.

Faurlin playing makes me very happy. Don't want to be too optimistic because we only have 26 points in 19 matches, but this team can and should do much better going forward.

Good win for QPR. Terrible for me as I bet the X!

Over half the Arsenal midfield injured, as usual
12-03-2015 , 06:18 PM
January is a really good time to buy a central midfielder that can play Santi role or defensive role. If we don't buy Carvalho, I'm gonna like spank myself in the ass really hard and I don't like that kind of stuff.
12-03-2015 , 06:33 PM
lol Carvalho. He's as good as Wanyama and would cost even more.

I wish we could have shifted off Arteta/Flamini and replaced them with a younger DM like Bender, but really don't regret it too much. **** happens. It happens too often for us, but in our best XI, Wilshere, Welbeck, Ox, Giroud aren't even playing. Rosicky and Arteta are often not making the matchday squad.

Coquelin as well. I get the argument that Wilshere/Rosicky/Gibbs are always crocked, so you should have a good backup....but we have a 25 man squad like everyone else. Now, should we get rid of the fringe players who spend more time in the treatment room then on the pitch? Probably a fair idea, but we would have had to sell/move before bringing in.

5 starters and a lot of fringe players injured but still fielding a team which is better than utd/pool/spurs.
not sure what people expect from our depth... not even oil clubs can replace their top top players without significant drop off

Arsenal need cover to cover the injured cover

I feel like this is the weekend where Swansea start to look good and Leicester start to lose.

Bit gutted that the odds are not as high as I hoped given their form.

Oh yeah, because Arsenal never had any injury problems in the last few seasons. ....

JFH surely making a mistake making the move to the QPR at this stage.

Got to be a better option to stick it out for the rest of the season and see if there is a better job available for the long term.
