    Brother.

    We need him for Pool, Newcastle and Chelsea away, I was praying… I had accepted a month, this is possibly the biggest monkey wrench we could’ve been thrown

  2. it is what is I guess, trust arteta to find the best solutions possible with the options we have, would be great to see merino fit asap not sure how long that injury will take.

  3. I feel like Arteta will have change his mindset and no protect Nwaneri too much. 8 weeks is a long time and I don’t think we can rely on jorginho and partey to be available till odegaard/merino return. Nwaneri definitely needs to start against lower league teams

  4. UEFA is running players into the ground cos wtf is this scheduling pointless competitive in the league season?

  5. 8 weeks for an ankle is ridiculous, especially if we aren’t counting the time that’s already passed.

    Know Fabio and ESR wanted more minutes, but letting them both go seemed like such a massive risk and here we are

  7. Nothing like paying someone to recover from an injury he got playing for somebody else. Hope he comes back strong!

  8. Well, obviously this isn’t great news but it isn’t the end of the world either. Since we’re already a week down, we should expect him back sometime around late October or early November.

    Hope Merino can make a come back soon, Rice and Merino on the pitch at the same time can definitely provide the coverage Nwaneri needs to shine

    Ironically the next international breaking arriving ASAP makes me feel better. Maybe so I can not die of stress watching our next few games. But then I would die watching our players on international duty. ARgh, it never ends!

  11. I dont know but I do feel that the club is pushing this a lot, Dr Raj said between 2-4/4-6 weeks depending on how his ankle responds.. I do have a feeling that this is another move from Arteta, I might be wrong but hopeful I guess.

  12. 8 weeks from injury would have him back by Inter, but probably won’t be fit to start. Chelsea away would be more realistic.

  13. Damn merino and odegaard both out after shipping out smith Rowe and Fabio. Haha only at arsenal 🙁

  14. Maybe we change the formation, 4-3-1-2

    Jesus and Havertz
    Saka
    With Partey rice merino

    Different way of ball progression without odegaard to breakthrough through the lines

    The truth is if Ödegard missing for 8 weeks in the season affects our chance to win the league then we weren’t really ready to win the league
