    ​
    Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers has no new injury concerns, with long-term absente Daniel Amartey the only player unavailable.

    Captain Wes Morgan is back in contention after missing the last game for personal reasons.

    Arsenal will assess top scorer Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who sat out the defeat at Wolves after sinus surgery.

    Aaron Ramsey and Denis Suarez remain out with respective hamstring and groin problems.

    Hector Bellerin, Rob Holding and Danny Welbeck continue rehabilitation from serious injuries.

    Mediocre is an overstatement today. We are poor. Very poor!

    Iwobi is not good enough. He's not improved at all since he was 19.

    Well that was an utter pile of ****e, we have lost 3 PL games in a week and I doubt even under AW we did that.
    our away form is so bad, it seems we have no tactical nous and our defence is the worst I can remember - both Mustafi and Kos must go.

    I hope fans now see AW was not the problem.. We have definitely gone backwards as a club. The best thing I did was refusingto give this mob my money... This guy will not win anything for this club. 3 losses on the bounce, 9goals shipped. Better managers below the top 6 than this charlatan!

    Well with Wenger you always felt we may actually pull of a comeback - when we go 1-2 down. With Emery it just doesnt seem possible.

    I cant decide if its his fault or just the fact we have no creative central midfielders. A Fabregas/ Carzorla type would make a big difference IMO.

    Well I can’t quite believe we’ve managed to throw away top 4.

    Then again maybe I should easily believe it.

    Agreed, with this guy, his subs and line up are baffling to say the least. You are right, the minute we go a goal down, it usually is curtains, typically goes from bad to worse, almost hopeless! It is not beyond the realms of impossibility to hope for a top4 finish.. you have 3goals per game 2ce, you will expect an hunger in the 3rd game.. no? I really dont know what he tells his player, any other manager in the top 5 will be skating on thin ice after a wretched run of form, but this guy seems to be comfortable!

    The problem is a lot of the old guard who frequently let us down at key moments. By old guard, I mean players that Wenger bought who have shown repeatedly that they don't have what it takes to be a successful team. Mkhitaryan, Iwobi, Xhaka, Mustafi, Kolasinac et al have proven time and time again they aren't good enough.

    We have too many feeble-minded, low-IQ players that couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery.

    Until they are gone, and Emery is afforded the time to bring in his own players, don't expect us to do much between now and the end of the season.

    All our eggs are in the Europa League basket now, but with the way we are playing, Valencia must be rubbing their hands with glee.

    We are running on empty.
    After we lost to city 8 days ago I would never have dreamed you'd lose 3 games with a minus 6 GD...but it ain't all lost for you ... unfortunately...Brighton is a gimme next week, they are the worst team I have seen us play live since Derby in 2007.

    Very weird run in by us, you, Chelsea and United...hopes raised then crushed in turn.

    Think I'd like a chelsea united draw or at worst a chelsea win as united wont catch us cos we have a plus 16 gd on them.
