«Eden Hazard remains the best number ten playing in England, and having
missed the start of the season with injury he has been finding form of late — outstanding in Chelsea's recent victories.
Seth Lugo has gone from maybe just
missing the start of the season with some fatigue in his arm to having a «significant» elbow injury.
And while it is not right to be happy about a player getting injured, he is a pud and with him set to
miss the start of the season with our north London rivals I have to see it as good news for the Gunners as well.
Not exact matches
The Addicks narrowly
missed out, finishing 9th, but could get off to a good
start next
season with a trip to newly - promoted Bournemouth on the opening day
of the Championship
season.
How many games did Podolski
start last
season?He was even loaned out last
season, Arsenal was
with out him for half
of the seasonand he was not even
missed on the pitch.
Xhaka, Francis Coqueilin and Mohamed Elneny have failed to earn a regular
starting role this term,
with first - choice option Santi Cazorla having
missed the majority
of the
season through injury.
I don't see what's negative about wanting to see us avoid the same destructive patterns we've seen in recent
seasons: playing half a
season, managing injuries like amateurs,
starting with important elements
of the squad
missing etc..

15th — Cory Coleman
missed 7 games
with a broken hand 16th — Taylor Decker had shoulder surgery in the offseason and is on the PUP list 17th — Keanu Neal was the healthiest
of the bunch — he only
missed the first 2 games last year 18th — Ryan Kelly just had foot surgery, out at least 6 weeks to
start the
season 19th — Shaq Lawson had shoulder surgery after he was drafted and didn't play until week 7 last year
Sanchez is currently away on international duty
with Chile for the 2015 Copa America tournament on home soil and could
miss the
start of the
season if his national team reach the latter stages.
Sanchez / Welbeck Lacazette I want us to play 4 -3-3 so that we can match Liverpool in the midfield as I don't want us to be overrun.Xhaka can't defend and he should not
start this match and if possible all other matches for the rest
of the
season.Coquelin's tackles has caused us to score some goals every single
season he's been here and I think we've
missed that this
season.I just don't know why he's been left on the bench because if paired
with the right partner can be used in a very defensive sense to great effect.Our team is so poor tactically.
WEAKNESSES: Turnover prone in college and needs to better protect the football, specifically
with his pocket movements (21 fumbles in his 24
starts)... elongated, wind - up release... chaotic lower body throwing mechanics, influencing his ball placement... too willing to deliver off - balance without setting his feet... bad habit
of locking onto targets, leading defenders to the intended receiver... made too many high - risk throws in college, not locating lurking defensive backs... spotty offensive line play in 2017 caused him to play skittish and quicken his reads / movements, leading to mistakes... relatively inexperienced, playing only one full
season at quarterback in high school and two years at USC... durable in college, but
missed his junior
season after a broken foot (Sept. 2013), requiring surgery.
Matt Barkley will get an extended look as the Bears»
starting quarterback as it was announced that Cutler would
miss the remainder
of the
season with his shoulder injury.
With Daniel Sturridge set to
miss the
start of the new
season as he recovers from hip surgery [via Independent Sport] and the futures
of Fabio Borini, Rickie Lambert and Mario Balotelli undecided, the Merseyside outfit are in desperate need
of more firepower.
Despite this impressive
start, Falcao would end up
missing half
of the
season with a knee ligament injury.
They don't have a lot
of starting pitchers who can
miss bats, and they'll
start the
season with substantial worries about the players at third, behind the plate, and in right field.
Time for some brutal honesty... this team, as it stands, is in no better position to compete next
season than they were 12 months ago, minus the fact that some fans have been easily snowed by the acquisition
of Lacazette, the free transfer LB and the release
of Sanogo... if you look at the facts carefully you will see a team that still has far more questions than answers... to better show what I mean by this statement I will briefly discuss the current state
of affairs on a position - by - position basis... in goal we have 4 potential candidates, but in reality we have only 1 option
with any real future and somehow he's the only one we have actively tried to get rid
of for years because he and his father were a little too involved on social media and he got caught smoking (funny how people still defend Wiltshire under the same and far worse circumstances)... you would think we would want to keep any goaltender that Juventus had interest in, as they seem to have a pretty good history when it comes to that position... as far as the defenders on our current roster there are only a few individuals whom have the skill and / or youth worthy
of our time and / or investment, as such we should get rid
of anyone who doesn't meet those simple requirements, which means we should get rid
of DeBouchy, Gibbs, Gabriel, Mertz and loan out Chambers to see if last
seasons foray
with Middlesborough was an anomaly or a prediction
of things to come... some fans have lamented wildly about the return
of Mertz to the
starting lineup due to his FA Cup performance but these sort
of pie in the sky meanderings are indicative
of what's wrong
with this club and it's wishy - washy fan - base... in addition to these moves the club should aggressively pursue the acquisition
of dominant and mobile CB to stabilize an all too fragile defensive group that has self - destructed on numerous occasions over the past 5
seasons... moving forward and building on our need to re-establish our once dominant presence throughout the middle
of the park we need to target a CDM then do whatever it takes to get that player into the fold without any
of the usual nickel and diming we have become famous for (this kind
of ruthless haggling has cost us numerous special players and certainly can't help make the player in question feel good about the way their future potential employer feels about them)... in order for us to become dominant again we need to be strong up the middle again from Goalkeeper to CB to DM to ACM to striker, like we did in our most glorious years before and during Wenger's reign...
with this in mind, if we want Ozil to be that dominant attacking midfielder we can't keep leaving him exposed to constant ridicule about his lack
of defensive prowess and provide him
with the proper players in the final third... he was never a good defensive player in Real or
with the German National squad and they certainly didn't suffer as a result
of his presence on the pitch... as for the rest
of the midfield the blame falls squarely in the hands
of Wenger and Gazidis, the fact that Ramsey, Ox, Sanchez and even Ozil were allowed to regularly
start when none
of the aforementioned had more than a year left under contract is criminal for a club
of this size and financial might... the fact that we could find money for Walcott and Xhaka, who weren't even guaranteed starters, means that our whole business model needs a complete overhaul... for me it's time to get rid
of some serious deadweight, even if it means selling them below what you believe their market value is just to simply right this ship and change the stagnant culture that currently exists... this means saying goodbye to Wiltshire, Elneny, Carzola, Walcott and Ramsey... everyone, minus Elneny, have spent just as much time on the training table as on the field
of play, which would be manageable if they weren't so inconsistent from a performance standpoint (excluding Carzola, who is like the recent version
of Rosicky — too bad, both will be deeply
missed)... in their places we need to bring in some proven performers
with no history
of injuries... up front, although I do like the possibilities that a player like Lacazette presents, the fact that we had to wait so many years to acquire some true quality at the striker position falls once again squarely at the feet
of Wenger... this issue highlights the ultimate scam being perpetrated by this club since the arrival
of Kroenke: pretend your a small market club when it comes to making purchases but milk your fans like a big market club when it comes to ticket prices and merchandising... I believe the reason why Wenger hasn't pursued someone
of Henry's quality, minus a fairly inexpensive RVP, was that he knew that they would demand players
of a similar ilk to be brought on board and that wasn't possible when the business model was that
of a «selling» club... does it really make sense that we could only make a cheeky bid for Suarez, or that we couldn't get Higuain over the line when he was being offered up for half the price he eventually went to Juve for, or that we've only paid any interest to strikers who were clearly not going to press their current teams to let them go to Arsenal like Benzema or Cavani... just part
of the facade that finally came crashing down when Sanchez finally called their bluff... the fact remains that no one wants to win more than Sanchez, including Wenger, and although I don't agree
with everything that he has done off the field, I would much rather have Alexis front and center than a manager who has clearly bought into the Kroenke model in large part due to the fact that his enormous ego suggests that only he could accomplish great things without breaking the bank... unfortunately that isn't possible anymore as the game has changed quite dramatically in the last 15 years, which has left a largely complacent and complicit Wenger on the outside looking in... so don't blame those players who demanded more and were left wanting... don't blame those fans who have tried desperately to raise awareness for several years when cracks began to appear... place the blame at the feet
of those who were well aware all along
of the potential pitfalls
of just such a plan but continued to follow it even when it was no longer a financial necessity, like it ever really was...

Thomas was sidelined
with a hand injury at the
start of his first
season with the Jaguars, and
missed the first four weeks.
So once again the Gunners were
starting to look in danger
of an injury crisis ruining yet another
season, especially when Alexis Sanchez limped off against Man United — after Koscielny, Arteta and Flamini had all
missed the game
with their own knocks.
That said I think our holding midfield is our biggest worry
with cazorla and Wilshire currently both set to
miss the
start of the
season, I am not sure I am comfortable
with our current offering
of xhaka ramsey
with coquelin and elneny as back up.
At the
start of the summer, I backed Wenger for not paying the 30 million for Schneiderlin, however
with his performances this
season it looks like we really
missed a trick.
He
missed starts with injury, saw his strikeouts drop while his walks and homers rose, and allowed the most hits per nine
of any his
seasons of 2010.
He passed for at least 350 yards in five
of his seven
starts with the Rebels, but he
missed the final five games
of the
season with a torn ligament in his right knee, sustained Oct. 21 in a loss to LSU.
As such, Petr Cech has returned to training after
missing the previous game
with a Pelvic injury which witnessed David Ospina earn his maiden Premier League
start of the
season.
After two games, Gaitan has not
started (he came on as a substitute twice) and Kevin Gameiro has
missed quite a few chances against newly - promoted sides on the way to Atletico collecting just two points in those two games and there is a sense
of eerie familiarity
with his
start to the
season.
Spurs
missed out on Champions League qualification by one point in the 2012/2013
season,
with a total
of 72 points - the highest point total for a top flight team outside
of the top four - ensuring Balemania would
start as soon as the last kick
of a ball was kicked at White Hart Lane.
I read somewhere that some said we're not clinical enough that is a culture at wenger has become too friendly
with the players at Arsenal the players position are seldom under treat you play poorly for two weeks and you still make the team you
missed a look at almunia retrospectively don't understand that hey if i get a chance to score i must take it the first time cause i may not get a next one and you want the players to be clinical it must
start from the top good work or none As was said on a website to day Arsenal should parade through the streets
of london in an open top Bus at the end
of the
season the accountants
of the club and i will through wenger in there too cause to most
of you he can do no wrong I love this club
with all my heart and i can support no other club in football but to see for 5
seasons we can't show any vast improvement and keep making the same mistakes every year is hard to swallow it makes me sick but as wenger says judge me at the end i wonder what end he meant the end
of the
season or the end
of his contract GO ARSENAL......................
With Olivier Giroud expected to
miss the
start of the
season following his exertions at Euro 2016 Wenger may consider handing the central striking berth to youngster Chuba Akpom for the opening day clash against Liverpool if the 20 - year - old can impress in pre-
season.
It's made Suarez more
of a threat to the opposition defence, already racing to the top
of the scoring charts despite
missing the first five games, although Daniel Sturridge, who flourished as a lone frontman making space for Suarez to work in between the lines
with his running, has seen his form dip a little from his near - perfect
start to the
season now the Uruguayan is more
of a striking partner.
Defender Richards, 25,
missed most
of last
season with a knee injury and the
start of the current campaign
with a pulled hamstring but after three appearances believes his problems are behind him.
In the Premier League, there are now six teams
with genuine title aspirations at the
start of every
season, two
of whom will be forced to
miss out on a the golden goose
of Champions League qualification.
@Demetrio, Arshavin is absolutely a good buy for us.I
started to re-watch again all the Arsenal games that I have in copy (as I really
missed that beautifull game we used to play since the
starting of this
season, Its just wonderfull to see Fab spoiling TH
with Fabulous passes)-RRB- since 2004, and Ive concluded that one
of the biggest lack on our game was that good dynamic fast winger, the like
of Ljunberg, Bergkamp, Rosicky, Hleb, Robert pires, durin the times
of Asley cole etc..
Swansea City striker Fernando Llorente will
miss the
start of the new Premier League
season with a broken arm.
New Newcastle midfielder Joey Barton will
miss the
start of the
season after fracturing a metatarsal in Saturday's 1 - 1 friendly draw
with Carlisle.
He passed for at least 350 yards in five
of his seven
starts with the Rebels, but he
missed the final five games
of the
season with a torn ligament in his right knee.
Despite struggling for attacking options — Giroud could
miss the
start of the
season through a lack
of fitness while Danny Welbeck is out
with injury until well into 2017 — Wenger is reported to have told Costa Rica striker Joel Campbell that he can leave the club.
