I thought we were just using the old one for this match thread? If we lose def solids fault now. I’ll mention in this one then, Arsenal have just loaned out their 3rd player of the window with Mari going to Udinese despite apparently failing to have enough players to play on Sunday
Arsenal on the WUM. All within the rules, but would laugh if their one covid case was a false positive.
Mod tyranny - we should be revolting ( I'm doing my best). Unlike many others, it seems, I'm not too apprehensive about this game. They won't be as defensive as they were before, and that will suit us.
I had a go at making up and arsenal 11 (call it 343) Ramsdale holding Gabriel teirney Saka sambi white tavares nketiah Lacazette Martinelli subs: beieth patino, m'hand (all on bench last game so obviously good enough) plus whatever other kids who they can call on. Then they havewhomever wants to get up off thier fake injury death bed btw soares, saka, chambers and smith rowe all said to have "knocks" i only needed to include one to make a pretty good 11. who from the team above is out with covid then? I don't know what the fuss is really about here for me that a team that can certainly beat us. they are only going to have the Burnley game called off as well as Burnely are already at it.
its highly probable it will and they will have a full 11 the following weak while we will see Alisson, fabinho and firmino **** off on international duty The supposed winter break is supposedly not for games by agreement but i can guess we will be forced to play then as there are no more open game slots at all form now til after the final date.
Say arsenal sign a player now, would they be available to play if this game were postponed? I think they are in for teilemans? he would be cup tied? what if they bring in wijnaldum for example though? All the way round getting games called off to buy time is a legitimate tactic if you can get away with it.
I think if they aren’t registered to play the game in it’s normal window then you can’t play in the rearranged game if postponed in cup games.
far as i can tell this tie is down to arsenal getting "first team" players off the treatment table to make 13+1 It seems that even though some kids were able to sit on the bench last week they don't count towards the 13. soares, saka, chambers and smith rowe would all have to be at least fit enough to sit on the bench for a game which we ought to recall has pens and 120mins to play possibly.
They should have to recall the 3 players they sent out on loan this moth and play them/sit them on the bench. Easy.
The sensible and fair thing to do would be for both teams to withdraw and declare Chelsea the rightful winner
