on team news…
Mesut Ozil will not be available for Sunday.
on how long Mesut is out for…
Very short-term. He is not far, but he is not enough for Sunday.
on Alex Iwobi…
Alex Iwobi might be available for Sunday, of course Coquelin and Welbeck are not available.
on Laurent Koscielny…
We have a doubt about Laurent Koscielny unfortunately and he will have a test tomorrow. It’s an achilles problem, it’s ongoing. I think everybody else should be available. Sead Kolasinac had some problems, but he is available. That’s basically it.

I'd be shocked if Wenger showed the steel to justly bench that parasite for being excess, worthless baggage to the team .... even though it would be the right decision and not frowned upon by Anyone on that team :roll: :roll:

Really need this team to be full strength and firing with Welbeck and Santi at full fitness.
Left to me, Ozil can go. Take his salary and add it to Alexis.

The genius Al-Waffi disagrees :mrgreen: :mrgreen: he says Ozil is with 350k per week and Alexis can take a hike :mrgreen:
Ozil and Sanchez may wear the shirt but they are yesterday's news to me. I don't bother myself with them anymore.

Did you notice Sanchez not joining the group to celebrate Iwobi's goal? He was expecting the group to come to him cos of his assist, but they went to the goal scorer. The goal scorer pointed to him, but he did not join him in celebrating.

I'm glad we are moving on
Haba, Waffi....kai, when you don't like someone, you go to great lengths to disparage them.

THANK YOU, ALEXIS, for the WONDERFUL ASSIST to our boy IWOBI!!!

Very strange. Lad looks like a totally new and rejuvenated player :???:
Bellerin is also more comfortable with getting cover defensively. This has helped him more than Ox leaving.

BTW! You are one of those perpetuating this myth that Ox was offered £180,000 per week. We now know from BBC David Ornstein's tweet clarifying this issue that the £180,000 wage was subject to Arsenal being in the CL, the player making certain number of appearances and him meeting performance targets.

This has been one of my quarrels with Wenger, pandering to overrated players who will have no problems stabbing him in the back at the first opportunity. You'll think he would have learnt by now, after many years of betrayals from Flamini to Helen, Adebayor, na$ri, Cesc, Judas, etc. We are 6 pints behind manure on the log because of his obsession with the Ox that achieved nothing in his 6 years with Arsenal. Our team is often unbalanced because he's always trying to fit Ramsey and Özil in the starting lineup. If it is true that he's now looking at the future without Özil and as such is putting Arsenal's interest ahead of the primadonas, that will really be wonderful, and mean that we still have some hope left for this season

you don't know Wenger...why is he only making decisions about Ozil now? After all, we were told that Ozil had been refusing to sign a new contract since last season. And how come Wenger was so obsessed with The Ox?

By the way, your including Cesc in your list is pure bad belle :sneaky: :sneaky: :sneaky: be careful, otherwise you will become like Waffi.

So in other words, he was offered 180k per week :rotf:

Cesc went on strike to force his way out of Arsenal only to reappear at Chelshit 3 years later. He's worse than na$ri as far as I'm concerned. I don't believe all the nonsense he says about being grateful to wenger and arsenal

Kai. Oga PapaK. You have graduated from Waffi’s Uni with honors. He didn’t just show up at Chelsea like you are claiming. Haba , fear God and say the truth. We were all here when he asked to come back from Barca, but Wenger was puffing his skinny French chest claiming we had a certain Özil , while you guys were hailing him.

why didn't they sell him earlier? Na dem be twerps. No be the Ozil wey we dey brag say we get, so we refused to take Cesc back? When I said that was wrong, weren't Waffi and his acolytes twerking about Ozil winning us FA cups (while Cesc only managed a mere 2 EPL titles at Chelsea)?

Anyway, even if he goes for free, he has won us many FA cups (Papak, Waffi, Robbynice, etc). He has been a perfect loyal servant...without him, we would not have done all these great things.

It's not a question of whether Arsenal want to sell, but whether anyone wants to buy this parasite .... :woot: :woot: :woot: Plus the team play in his absence doesn't help his already bottom floor value in any way :D

Abegi cut the chord and let the maga fark off ... he won't be missed :woot:

This is getting ugly quickly ... the club has lost total control of the narrative ... should have cashed in during the summer

let's be clear - Alexis & Ozil(A&O) are as strong as they've been for a while cos many other players chose to hide & the gaffer chose not to lead.
the consequence became so much of our results are guided by their moods - Wengerball at its best is ultimate team footie not iso-ball.
If other cats encouraged by AW have discovered their wings & their abilities to fly - let's do that.
All of our players with short contracts are hot properties in Jan for not being CL-Tied. The high wages many including A&O desire only make great auction dependent on great performances at current club - we've gotta play team ball - they've to be "killa" soldiers in that mix - leadership must be earned by work not diva shrugs - we watch!!!!

Papak well said ... the problem with Wenger is that he is a slow learner and history will repeat itself ... this is the same man that ruthlessly cut ties with the likes of Viera, Overmars and anelka but has gone soft with suckers like .... ahhhh never mind ... I don give up on Wenger ..: love the man but it's like trusting a drug addicted good friend with a trust fund and expecting him not to indulge himself in depravity :roll: :roll: the man just doesn't get it and no one is there to steer him right any more

when you have such a long list of "betrayers", then perhaps, one has to look inwards...

Hmm.. how long do you think it will take for them to call him Judas? abi na Verräter?

Also, will they throw bananas at him at the Emirates? Or is that only reserved for black Judases
For African ones only...

you don't know Wenger...why is he only making decisions about Ozil now? After all, we were told that Ozil had been refusing to sign a new contract since last season. And how come Wenger was so obsessed with The Ox?

By the way, your including Cesc in your list is pure bad belle :sneaky: :sneaky: :sneaky: be careful, otherwise you will become like Waffi.
AW poor decisions are now costing the club, both Ozil and Ox should have been sold last year. I can't imagine anyone paying Ox £180K per week, the man can't even cross to save his life.

Manchester United: Jose Mourinho Identifies Arsenal Star as January Target—And He Won’t Cost a Penny

By Tom Roddy On 10/3/17 at 10:27 AM

Jose Mourinho is planning to make a move for Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil in January which would see him move to Old Trafford for free in the summer, according to reports.

The Manchester United manager worked with Ozil at Real Madrid from 2010 through 2013, and is highly confident about convincing him to join him in the north west of England, The Independent says.

Ozil, who joined Arsenal in 2013 for a then club record fee, is free to speak to any club in January as his contract at the Emirates Stadium will expire in the summer.

Arsenal’s attempts to negotiate a new deal with the 28-year-old German have been unsuccessful, and could lose both him and Alexis Sanchez to Manchester at the start of 2018.

Sanchez’s contract in north London also finishes next summer and Arsenal looks certain to lose him for nothing, despite Manchester City’s deadline day offer of £60 million (about $79 million).


Reports in the summer suggested City forward Raheem Sterling had been part of the deal proposed to Arsenal, as a cash-plus-player offer.

But now Arsene Wenger looks in danger of losing two key players for free.

It would not be the first time the French manager saw his best players move to Manchester. In 2012, Arsenal sold Dutch striker Robin van Persie to United for £24 million, and he went on to win the Premier League title and the Golden Boot in his first year at Old Trafford.

Manchester United, meanwhile, is joint top of the Premier League table with neighbour City heading into the international break. Mourinho’s team has scored an average of three goals a game in the first seven fixtures, conceding just twice.

Arsenal has begun to recover from a poor start to the season with back-to-back victories against West Brom and Brighton and Hove Albion.
