Basically need to get through this month somehow. Possible in the league, but I fear we'll see our CL and FA Cup run end.

Song also misses the match against Sunderland then?

This is just sad. Getting 3 points against Sunderland was never going to be easy and now this.

From the ecstasy of that night when we played Barcelona and everything seemed swell to nearly losing all hope.

It's a shame we don't get to see Diaby and Ramsey tomorrow night, just to see where we stand in midfield.

Any news on Vermaelen? Haven't heard about him in ages.

asajoseph

Diaby's supposedly in line to start, according to that article. Shame about Ramsey though.

Rohit

Wenger said Diaby will start tomorrow night.

Ramsey isn't eligible though.

Captain

Yeah, saw that. Was more thinking about the likelihood of them playing in tandem for a couple of games (with Cesc and Song carrying injuries and Wilshere maybe needing a rest in the next few games).

Rohit

Here i go again, but a lot of these players have played a part at a much younger age in keeping us in the top 4. It is no trophy but the amount of abuse some of them get, one would think they have to be part of a team fighting relegation. Surely they can do a job for a couple of games.

Rex

With RVP and Walcott out for sure, and doubts over Cesc and Song for the Barcelona game, I´d say we can kiss the CL goodbye. Probably the FA Cup as well if we somehow manage to get past Orient.

Likely scenario: Out of 3 competitions within 2 weeks.

Anyone still an optimist has my deepest admiration. I just feel depleted.

Are you taking the piss?

Rex

Without Cesc, Song, RVP and Walcott for sure and with likely appearnces for Seb, Denilson and Diaby, and with the abomination Bendtner/Chamakh combo - I don´t take victory for granted against Orient, no.

Timbob

Stop being silly.

According to Arsene in the arsenal.com article:

“Almunia needs games so he will play...."

He does not need games.
He really doesn't.

I would have thought it more important to put Sczcesny back in so that he can start the process of getting Sunday out of his system?

Rex

We really spanked them good at their ground you mean? Or Ipswich? Or Huddersfield?

Based on how we've played with our second team this season, I don't see what's so silly about Rex' comments.

Rex

Thanks Y va. Cue Almunia and our chances of winning are even slimmer.

Timbob

Lads, we're gonna beat Orient. Trust me.

Rex

This team finds new and spectacular ways to screw up Tim, even you have to admit that. Tottenham @ the Grove, St James´ Park, CC final. Which other team in history has managed that?

Nela

I NEVER feel comfortable watching this team.

I don't see how you can after the last couple of years. Even when we were 4-0 against Newcastle I knew I wouldn't be able to fully relax and enjoy the game until we had about 15 minutes left with the same scoreline. And that was my feeling at half time long before Djourou got injured and Diaby was sent off.

Timbob

True, but Orient are mid table league one. They've won 3 away league games all season. They're even worse than Ipswich and Huddersfield. If they knock us out of the cup tomorrow I'd go as far to say it'd be one of the biggest upsets in the history of the club.

At The Emirates, I just cant see any way Orient can win this.
