Re: The Arsenal Injury Thread

[REWB]

Injury list:

Walcott
Gnabry
Chamberlain

so chombo 100% out of the cup final?

[RealGunner]

He is going to the WC. Already picked in the team

He is back to full training on Wednesday

[SamuelJayC]

We say it every year, but let's hope this thread is used less next season.   

[Kwame2u]

Yeah Sam, our team could do so well without this thread

Aaron Ramsey supposedly set to undergo thigh operation according to Metro. Daily Mail reported the story first then deleted it.

*MASSIVE SIGH*

Ramsey confirms these stories are bull on Twitter.

@aaronramsey 1m
Please ignore any stories about me needing surgery. They are completely false. I'm enjoying my summer and already can't wait for pre-season.

[Sina]

yeah i remember he talked about his summer plans and getting married and such surely no surgery to disrupt them plans

On injuries, Diaby fit and hoping for full pre-season. Walcott to continue special programme. Realistic 1st team return aim always been Sept

[Jay29]

Goal.com reporting that Shad Forsythe will join the coaching team after the World Cup.

Injury list update

Walcott (September)

[Jay29]

on Theo Walcott…
He's progressing very well. He's worked very hard during the summer and we expect him to be back in full training at the end of August.

on how long it will take for Walcott to get back in the team…
That's difficult to predict. Once he's back in full training it can be very quick. He has a good basis, which is what he's working on now.

[MJ]

That's great news, at that rate he wouldn't miss more than a portion of the beginning of the season, having Alexis will hopefully mean we won't miss Theo's pace on the right.

I wonder what role Diaby will play if he can stay fit for a few months. We all know what he's capable of, would love to see him get a few games under his belt and show that early season form he was in two years ago.

But with this being his contract year, he'll most likely move on afterwards.

[SamuelJayC]

Injured list

Ospina (thigh)
Vermaelen (?)
Walcott (fitness)
Ryo (fitness)

[Sri]

Diaby not on that list #InB4EmiratesCupSeasonLongInjury

[SamuelJayC]

Injured list

Ospina (thigh)
Vermaelen (?)
Walcott (fitness)

Gnabry also. Sadly.

[SamuelJayC]

Sanogo was not injured on Saturday. He was withdrawn as a precaution.

[Jay29]

Wenger on Walcott: "He will come back into the group on August 31 - he is doing well but he's not ready yet"

[RealGunner]

Apparently the German trio will miss the start of the PL as well with fitness issues. They return on Monday and would need 3 weeks of proper training etc. Might see them in September properly. Although Mertesacker might play earlier.

@julian_bennetts: Koscielny substituted due to Achilles' tendon problem. Wenger 'hopes it's not too bad' but could be a doubt for opening day. #AFC

[RealGunner]

Chambers-Monreal

This is exactly what I didnt want to hear. specially that 'Hopes its not too bad' part.

[Lex]

Surprised Szczesny hasn't been declared injured, thought for sure he'd at least have a dislocated shoulder or mild concussion after today

[EL Patron]

If Kos is not fit against Palace, maybe Arsene will consider Hayden  

[RealGunner]

Monreal has adapted well there imo.

[Sri]

It's already begun.
