Razzler Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 You don't really get to have more than one 'great goodbye' but that was epic from Henry for another goodbye in a huge result, back into the top 4 and Chelsea not exactly looking like they'll chase you down. Liverpool may be more of a threat and that's a couple of huge games with Spuds and Liverpool away too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamez91 Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 As I mentioned before we have Tottenham in the next league game whereas the week after that we have liverpool while spuds play united then adter that spurs face a tricky away game at goodison. It seems all the top teams are playing each other recently and it can only be good for us because if we beat the two I referred to and they all take points off one another.

Maestroik Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Praying no one gets injured by Van Bommel. A score draw away will be satisfactory. Just read somewhere that a Vermaelen & Koscielny partnership in defence has not lost a game before. Cool. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flimini was working on the whole pitch like crazy while both Diaby/Cesc (even if it wasn't the best Cesc yet) were more likely to get into the box, run through the middle than our current midfielders. And I think Ramsey will play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't know whether the guy has gone down because of injury or if he has slipped. "We were unfortunate because Mertesacker told me he got pain in his ankle and couldn't move. "We are a bit worried about it because he goes home on crutches and he's done some ligament damage. "How deep the damage, we have to check. But, for sure, he is out for Wednesday."

Astafjevs Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Anyone know the current injury situation at AC Milan? Just checked their team out from yesterday and no sign of Pato, Ibrahimovic, Flamini or Boateng. Flamini's been out since August with an ACL injury - not in the CL squad list. Ibrahimovic was banned, he'll be back. Boateng and Pato have both been out for the past month or so - Allegri says they should be back in time for Wednesday. Interesting aspect is whether they will actually start the game considering the length of their absence, or whether they'll be on the bench. The squad as a whole has been destroyed by injuries - that's just the tip of the iceberg, so to speak. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dagoonerfan Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Some bad news in the ACON - Gervinho missed the critical pen in the shootout, in sudden death.

Just checked their team out from yesterday and no sign of Pato, Ibrahimovic, Flamini or Boateng.\Ibra probably missing due to suspension, Boateng - wasn't he expected to miss our game a long time ago already (the too much sex thing)? I am not a specialist in Italian football though so expect a more accurate answer. Shame Gerv won't be available for some time now, by which I mean he won't be ready. You could say it is good when their team is either knocked out early (they get back soon) or win the whole thing (morale etc) so for Gerv it was the worst possible scenario, but that is just speculation. Besides, he's only 2nd choice for this position now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Llew_Arshavin23 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Jon Toral's signed a professional deal at the club Quite interesting to see how our younger players will do in the coming season, especially the ones who havn't featured for the first-team much yet. Chuks Aneke, Daniel Boateng and Nico Yennaris have all made their first-team debuts this season, but there's players like Benik Afobe, Thomas Eisfeld, Jon Toral and Serge Gnabry who all look, or sound, good. When Gnabry was still in the Stuttgart youth ranks, he was being talked about as Germany's new 'Golden Boy'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris79 Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 This thread is usually so quiet before the big games, strange It is such a blow with PerMer. IMO he was criticised unfairly and his presence helped us improve defensively this season (before someone jumps out with conceded goals stat I would like to add that the entire team does the defending). Now we only have 2 class CBs, unless Djourou decides it is this time in his career that he looks like a class defender, but you never know with him.
