Re: The Arsenal Injury Thread

Just a few more. Then we can make the annual long-term-injured-XI again.

by RealGunner Sun Sep 28, 2014 10:55 pm

Ramsey out for 5-6 weeks.
Arteta out for 3 weeks

No news of Wilshere but his seems to be minor.

Season is over lol. Don't waste too much energy on Arsenal guys. Do something productive instead.

You know the season is heading towards parody territory when Diaby becomes your only choice in midfield.

A month of a Diaby/Flamini double pivot :bow:

by Hapless_Hans Sun Sep 28, 2014 11:18 pm

Don't give up yet. Because you're forgetting one incredibly significant fact: The injury list does NOT include DIABY Shocked

by MJ Sun Sep 28, 2014 11:33 pm

My word.

Can't say we didn't see this coming but we're actually going to need Coquelin Laughing

He was impressive in the COC (coq*) so that's slightly reassuring but it just highlights how ridiculously badly we needed to invest more in the squad this summer.

Rosicky, Cazorla, (not counting Özil as he's played out wide)
Flamini, Diaby, Coquelin

Our options are getting banterous. Going to be giving Hayden a go at DM soon and the worst part is that he'll probably be an upgrade.

by Sina Sun Sep 28, 2014 11:42 pm

Flamini-Coquelin gonna be rich mans scotty parker-Steve Sidwell partnership and do all the scrappy job in there :coffee:

by MJ Mon Sep 29, 2014 12:08 am

Well hopefully by the time the international break is up, we'll have these guys back:

Theo
Gnabry
Sanogoal
Monreal <3
Arteta
Jack (?)
Ramsey (?)

by SamuelJayC Mon Sep 29, 2014 10:27 am

Wenger's press conference is on Tuesday, so we'll get some idea of the injuries then. But it seems we know the following:

Giroud & Debuchy - Christmas
Ramsey - 6 weeks
Arteta - 3 weeks
Walcott, Sanogo, Monreal & Gnabry - after international break
Wilshere - 1 week

Once again, our season is destroyed by injuries.

by Raptorgunner Mon Sep 29, 2014 4:27 pm

Aaron RAMSEY for #Arsenal has made the most passes (407), created most chances (13) & had most shots (15) in #EPL

Going to be missed for sure.

I disagree. Season starts now, the only upside of this no more 4-1-4-1 and back to winning formation 4-2-3-1.

by 6unner Mon Sep 29, 2014 6:27 pm

If we switch formation from 4-1-4-1 and get a win. Then Wenger switches the formation back. Why would injuries force a change?

by MJ Mon Sep 29, 2014 6:28 pm

I would be stunned if we didn't make any sort of change since the formation was made to fit both Ramsey and Wilshere.

Now that both/Ramsey are/is out, it wouldn't make sense to stick with it. We'll see.

Diaby-Flamini is on the way Proud

by Raptorgunner Mon Sep 29, 2014 6:54 pm

We really have no choice but to change and Wenger would be crazy to to make the proper changes.

We still have the players to cover all the areas in the midfield. Thank god for international break, we really need this break.

Wilshere isn't injured.

by DuringTheWar Mon Sep 29, 2014 7:19 pm

Hearing Kos is out due to his dodgy Achilles flaring up.

by MJ Mon Sep 29, 2014 8:33 pm

was going on the assumption that Wilshere had 'a knock'. And either way, with or without him, it's no longer an issue of forcing him into the XI at Ramsey's, and the team's expense, is what I'm saying. I did say both/Ramsey and is/are

But the only 'source' I see for Kos being out is Veysey who thinks Sanchez is being benched for 'disrupting our style of play' :facepalm:

by RealGunner Mon Sep 29, 2014 9:44 pm

Cynic in me says that it's a matter of time till Wilshere is down as well. But let's hope I am wrong.

by Raptorgunner Mon Sep 29, 2014 10:05 pm

Its time to call back Carl Jenkinson even if Kos is ok to play.

What are the rules of loaning out players, can we bring them back when we want?

Ok, I was just clarifying he isn't injured, or if he is its very short term.

I think there's a fee to pay for that. Could be wrong.

by Art Morte Tue Sep 30, 2014 8:25 am

It's very rare to recall loaned out players and I'm sure sometimes impossible, due to the clauses in the contract. I cannot remember the last time I've read that a player has been recalled in the middle of a loan.

by djoe26 Tue Sep 30, 2014 11:12 am

I think we did recall Bellerin from Watford last season but its unlikely we will recall Jenks.

by MJ Tue Sep 30, 2014 3:09 pm

Wenger hints that Ramsey (min. 3 weeks) and Arteta could be back shortly after the international break.

Never been more relieved for two weeks of no club football. Gives Monreal and Sanogo time to recover as well.

by RealGunner Tue Sep 30, 2014 7:11 pm

I think Ramsey's injury isn't as bad as thought

John Cross started the 6 weeks thing and he is often a mouthpiece(for b grade stuff).

Might be wishful thinking but Ramsey could be back after the international break against erm Sunderland?

by Sri Tue Sep 30, 2014 8:44 pm

Watch him get rushed back only to get injured again in a few weeks.

by Raptorgunner Wed Oct 01, 2014 5:56 pm

Arsenal players suffered almost 900 injuries in 12 years - study

Arsenal players have sustained 890 injuries since August 2002, according to a report by PhysioRoom.com.
