looool. That'd be funny and sad at the same time if it were true.

Carrick hasn't been good this season though.

I'd be very, very happy with that lineup, Gerrard and Carrick would have to be on their game to protect the back 4 though. Don;t think it comes naturally to either of them.
Maybe should have given Noble a chance in a friendly to see if he can act as the platform to allow the other CMs to attack at will.
Wonder if Henderson will go. Could cover any of those 3 midfield spots, and even right back in a nightmare scenario
Holy macaroni if true
Is there training ground an sas assault course or something. Or do they train on a sheet if ice
Injured in his first day of training. Arsenal DNA. The rumor came from Sweden, people are trying to verify right now.

Yep.
As much as I want to see Shinji or Adnan start, imagine if either of those got a goal and an assist in that last match and were dropped - outrage!

Cleverly will be picked instead.
Maybe it's just American English but "harsh" to me doesn't mean unfair, it just means it hurts. Losing a derby 3-0 is brutal.

Swansea haven't even come close to making a chance since Carroll got sent off, let alone scoring.
So he lasted 12 hours as an Arsenal player before getting injured. That must be a record (if true).
Against Stoke too Young offers a bit more physical presence (albeit not hugely more) which has played in to it too.

Yeah ive also heard this... apparently injured himself in training and is out for two months approx.
Not too fussed about playing well, it's still Stoke away. Just getting the points will do me so you can still get shooky from your seat in the heavens

Henderson should go, as cover for Gerrard. Lallana/Wilshere for whoever starts, and Barry for Carrick because he's been absolutely brilliant this year. Then bring Barkley and Lampard as well just because innit (although Lampard will be starting every fucking match).
seriously tho, terry. Do you feel comfortably going into a world cup with Cahill and Jagielka as our starting centre backs? Jagielka's the better player, but pairing Cahill and Terry together would give me some real confidence that we won't get bummed into the night.
Kyoufu pls. You still have us
I was just putting two clauses in a sentence together. I didn't think you meant it as something not directly related.

What kind of training was it?

Yeah, they looked entirely inept going forward, not a clue how to break us down.
Fantastic result, all things considered. I'm overchuffed.

hahaha. wenger's training methods are fucked.
Congrats Sunderlunder by the way. Fully deserved that. Bridcutt looks decent, Ki is absolutely class, Johnson looking a threat again.
They need better defenders; they're doing a good job at the moment but it's not exactly inspiring on paper. Pretty certain they'll stay up now. Really not sure who is going to go down this year. The three at the bottom plus Norwich are in the most danger, I think; Cardiff really, really need to win today.

1) I have sympathy for Newcastle fans because it's a result that bites
2) Sunderland fully deserve it though, they were the better team.
End of the window tbf.
But yeah. This is going to be a terrible 2nd half of the season.

None of our centrebacks fills me with confidence, no matter how good their club form is
Would prefer Terry to be there than not though, cunt that he is.
Looking back, the utter failure to get prime Terry, Ferdinand, Cole, Gerrard, Lampard and Rooney looking anything like a well-oiled team is ludicrous. The wings have always been a bit brass, but that should have been a hell of a spine from 2004-2009
Still, its football, so let's play the imagination game. Imagine if we won the World Cup. I'd cry, even thugh I dislike 90% of those directly involved. Balls to the anti-Englanders.

It's bad enough England won one. We never hear the fucking end of it.
Ha ha. I got you the second time basterd.
What I meant to say is, I feel for our Newcastle fans here because it's got to not feel great to have lost an important game against a local rival, especially by three goals. However, on the other hand, it's worth mentioning that Sunderland looked a great team today - completely unlike the shambles that Di Canio was leading at the start of the season, and they fully deserve the result from this performance.
Do you GET IT NOW?

Well they do say it's a rumor... and Aftonbladet isn't really that reliable, at least they never are when it comes to who Copenhagen wants.

Of course the Kallstrom story is true, he plays for us now, once you arrive at the Emirates the medical staff give you the Arsenal curse.
Rumour is it can only be removed by spinning around 3 times while holding a black cat and speaking the name Wenger backwards into a cracked mirror...or leaving Arsenal.
