I am Arsenal Till I Die it almost begs the question - what's going on with Eddie? Has been so little information about what was meant to be a minor knock.
Don Pacifico I think we need to get used to this. Arteta doesn't show his hand.
Wow, i know Arteta said that Tross and Jesus were too early for this one. Such awesome mind games. Glad to see Ode and Tross back starting (hopefully Tros has actually recovered properly). And Jesus on the bench is just fucking fantastic. He might get a few minutes toward the end.
Line up is strong, bench looks good as it's been all season.
Qwiss
1st time I can remember in a while that I have looked at our bench and thought yeah... Any of those players could come on and have a positive impact.
Qwiss Yeah, I think you're right.
Hope Eddie is okay. I'm sure we'll need him later on this season.
Hope we're not rushing Trossard back. No reason to believe we have but just a little concerned about losing that depth!
Doc Yeah, this is a very strong bench. It's great to see. All we're missing is Eddie.
Feel a bit better now I've seen the team just hope the players are fit enough to play well rather than struggle through.
Hope we can be up 2-0 and replace 4 front men
USArsenal what's Eddie's injury anyway, and his long is he expected to be out for? I missed all that.
Best bench we've had in a while. Practically our best team all available
Good lineup, solid consistency with our last 3 league XIs. Just wary of such an imminent return from Trossard after any form of groin irritation. Time to be big boys, deal with wear and tear and come up with a big result.
The thing about Tross is if he feels it we can take him off, we have the bench.
Surprised Tomi doesn't start given how gassed White looked at the end the other night, but otherwise an expected team. Delighted to see Jesus back.
Wow. Watching highlights of a 3-3 seas versus Fulham in 2012/13. Arteta had a mare that day. We were 2-0 up. Arteta conceded a penalty, and then failed to score a penalty that would’ve made it 4-3. Let’s make it easy today, please.
Low-key pleased that Willian is injured. Would be so gross if he scored.
Already playing with 11 behind the ball
We're controlling the game, but not breaking through with anything yet.
