    Another fullback out and our CBs are getting stretched across the back, it's leaving us thin at the back, but the players in there are doing an immense job <ok> We really need Sagna back, athough from Wenger's post match comments, it doesn't sound like any of our fullbacks are near to returning.

    I reckon Kenny Sampson could be a better shout ...

    Nice one. Loved Kenny Samson. 86 caps & massive thighs with a fierce tackle. Quality. Can't think of anyone the same as him these days. Stu Pearce was close....

    It's probably my mind playing tricks but it seems ironic that we used to be known as the club with a 'stable' (not donkeys!!) back 4 or 5. Winterburn, Dixon, Keown, Adams, Bould; Never seemed to be injured (at least never as much as the current lot anyway). Course we had O'Leary as well a bit before that who played solidly for years and years.
    Aaaaahh... the memories......

    it'll be Kos - Verm - Merts - Mig for the next coupla games then til Gibbs is back. If Miguel performs well...there's no reason he can't stake a claim to it and end up there ahead of Gibbs who has looked shaky and injury prone at best.

    At first I thought he just took a knock to the bollocks from Balotelli but its a lot more serious. We have a curse at full back this season. It even got the normally unbreakable Sagna injured.

    <ok> I hope Miquel stakes his place, I think he's done alright so far.

    He's played 4 games for them, he's barely had a chance. I think Wenger could work some magic, look how quickly he made Santos look decent.

    I haven't been on this board too long but that is surely a joke? If it was a choice between Bridge and Winterburn I think I would go Winterburn!
