According to the BBC, Gnabry says he's close to a return, and they quote him as saying the below... please log in to view this image Getty Images Arsenal midfielder Serge Gnabry says he is over the knee injury which has kept him out since March 2014. The Germany Under-21 international played for Arsenal's development squad as they lost 1-0 to Reading on Monday. "I am feeling good, I'm feeling better and better," says 19-year-old Gnabry. "It is my second 90 minutes (in the space of a week), I am playing and over my injury so it is all good and I am looking forward to the next game."
Would be great to see him back and fit, especially before the end of the season, though I'm not sure how he'll get back into the team...
Agreed, he really needs a loan desperately. There is no chance he gets into our current squad, especially as we have hardly any injuries. He is a quality player though and one for the future. But as the pecking order goes he is behind, Sanchez and Walcott and on the left side, Ozil and Welbeck .So things aren't looking so good for young Gnarbry.
You guys say this but we're currently using Ramsey on the right. I wouldn't be surprised to see him get a cameo in a couple of games as there are some shenanigans going on with young Theodore keeping him out of the side. Struggling to remember him that much tbh, he's quite similar in size and style to AOC isn't he?
How can I forget, it just got even tougher for the young lad. He will really need to play well to get into the squad. Great news for us though!
Yeah I'm with Lazarus - I'd see it as Sanchez and Walcott (once the shenanigans is sorted) then Ozil and Welbeck (when Ozil isn't playing 10), or Ramsey/Carzorla on the right if Ozil is playing 10 and Cazorla/Ramsey in the centre - then Ox until he gets back to full fitness and starts pushing Walcott/Ramsey for a starting spot. And (breathe) after all that we have Gnabry who can mainly play on the right, but can also come into the centre. Though you'd have to assume that Zelam and Eisberg (sp?) would be looking for a few starts next season as well!!!
And of course that's without thinking about Sterling, Higuain and Khedira - which the press have said have definitely signed... ;p
Its almost definitely balls - i only mentioned them tongue in cheek because 2 years ago we had definitely signed higuain - until he went to napoli, in the summer we were definitely signing khedira - until he stayed with real, and now uts starting with Sterling
