AZ Preview; Clichy Injured; RvP Speaks

By: Martin | Comments 8 Comments

Well, just as my preview for the first match against AZ announced a monthlong injury to Theo Walcott, I’m afraid I’ve got more bad injury news to report here.

Fabianski Injured, Merida Negotiations Continue, Gibbs for England?

Just several random things going on today, none of which really deserve their own post, so I figured I would just dump them in here together.

AZ Preview; Walcott Out 3-4 Weeks

By: Martin | Comments 5 Comments

Champions League matchup tomorrow against AZ Alkmaar, and for some reason I can’t look at that name without thinking of Azkaban prison from Harry Potter. When I imagine what their home pitch is like, I picture it being a desolate little island in the middle of the cold sea. When you finally get there, with [...]

And We’re Back

By: Martin | Comments 19 Comments

Players report back to London today, and hopefully by the end of today or early tomorrow we’ll have an inventory of who picked up knocks playing in internationals. At the moment, the only one I’ve heard is Gael Clichy, who injured his thigh playing for France yesterday.

Denilson, Bendtner Injured

By: Martin | Comments 1 Comment

Well, it’s Arsenal, so for every player that comes back from injury, another player has to get hurt. Just when it looks like we might have a full squad again, with Rosicky, Walcott, and Arshavin returning to health, a couple more players get hurt.

Why I Hate International Breaks

By: Martin | Comments 6 Comments

I knew it was too much to ask for for our players to get through an international break without getting injured, and I was right. Andrei Arshavin, who had to come off injured with a groin injury against Manchester United, rushed back too early to play in yesterday’s game against Wales. Guus Hiddink, being the [...]

Djourou Out 6 Months

By: Martin | Comments 9 Comments

Not good. Djourou underwent surgery and won’t be back until March at the earliest. And we’re one step closer to having to watch Silvestre play. Ugh.
The injury was the one picked up on international duty last month, reminding us of why we hate internationals. Other than that, there don’t appear to be any other [...]

Transfer Rumors + Hartson Update

By: Martin | Comments 11 Comments

Sigh. More transfer rumors today. I have to say, I like it so much better when the window is closed and we don’t have to deal with all this nonsense every day. But it’s out there, so let’s dive right in.
First, there are reports that Arsenal and Barcelona have agreed on a deal to sell [...]

You Know the Season is Finally Here When Our Entire Squad is Injured

By: Martin | Comments 28 Comments

Arsenal’s team doctor, pictured at right, has had a pretty busy summer. Unsurprisingly, before we’ve even played our first match, we’re beset by injuries to many key players.
Arsene Wenger has told the official website that:

Report: Rosicky Out 6 Weeks (UPDATE)

By: Martin | Comments 21 Comments

Well, it is still an unconfirmed rumor at this point, but supposedly Rosicky aggravated his hamstring injury and will be out up to 6 weeks. I will update this post when this rumor is either dispelled or confirmed.
But if it’s true, it’s really troubling,
