I am sure next season if we stay injury free like Man.U have been lucky with Ronaldo and Rooney being injury free most times, we can excel quite a lot

I think Theo Wallcott will be getting alot more game time next season now as Baptista has left so the more he can experience the better for Arsenal in the future as he is going to be a superstar.

I have read that Arsene Wenger has spoken to Atletico Madrid to try and sign torres at Arsenal. Wenger wants to use Reyes to get him this would be great.

2 players,we've had an injury crisis just like any other teams have. We have not been lucky for sure,we got injurys at the most important part of our attempt to win the treble.

not for as long as we have mate or as often...

Thats great news, if we can sign Torres and use Reyes as swap deal...
I knew Fabregas and Wenger wont leave us

arsenal must only have a squad of 16 they need to invest in more players.

Precisely! Didn't you see what happened to our defense near the end of the season? Vidic, Ferdinand, Neville and Silvestre out, among others. Yet we still managed to grind out the results when they mattered.

Gallas, Eboue, Clichy, Hoyte, Senderos were injured for much of the season

Man I reckon he's over-rated. He's young and talented - like many young footballers (Dah). But when he got thrust into the England WC Squad, I thought to myself, "Man, What are they doing?". He hadn't even played a friggin ' Premier League game! And all this pressure, and in his first season, I was expecting him to take the league by storm but he didn't - even with Henry out. Maybe it's just high expectations, but I thought he was better than he actually is.

He never got the chance really to start games and when he came on he did make an impoact but he never had alot of time. After Feburary he hurt his shoulder i think it was and has had surgery. I remember the first game of the year when we drew with Aston Villa., Wallcott came on with about 15 mins to play and he carved up and got us level with Aston Villa. Hopefully though next season he can have an impact on the team and competition.

Yeah I saw that game. The first one since his WC and I thought he looked decent! But the more I saw and the ore I read, the more I started to think to myself: Over-Rated Youngster who has potential but has had to much pressure thrust upon him. I like the bloke as a person and I hope he does well, but I just feel sorry for him that he's had all this expectation thrust upon him in just his first season.

To be fair, he was playing on the wing rather than upfront

Nothing compared to what some of the other teams faced. losing two of your top goalkeepers in one game and then being without your captain and main defender. Now thats what you call an injury crisis. Not to mention not having both your wingers for majority of the season.

we're not lucky though,ffs thats what i'm trying to say. Compare the injurys this year to previous seasons and pretty much every club has had more than before,we haven't been lucky

 

[m_vaughan]

Why would you want to compare with previous seasons?

Had United lost all those defenders to injury at the start of the season or during the middle, then they would have struggled to keep all those clean sheets.

You have been "luckier" this season than most teams. The point here being the present season.
