    Gabriel getting stretchered off, two more centre back injuries and we may sign one!

        Looked brutal. Hope he's OK. Judging by his reaction--he isn't 😥

          Well, we'll certainly sign a CB now...but will it be the right one, and will it be in the next few days? Ugh.

            Wish we would've grabbed Umtiti before FCB did. Class signing.

            Koulibaly is still my preference, Manolas 2nd, Mustafi 3rd....

                Nothing against Gabriel but I hope he isn't and it forces a signing..I hope there's no long term damage though.

                    To be clear I hope it prompts a starter calibre signing, and that Gabriel recovers fully, and goes back to a rotational cb

                      It's just too bad that we always seem to wait until the end of the window or become so barebones in certain areas that Wenger has no choice but to do something. Unless he has faith in Chambers and youth team products, I don't see how you wait. It's not like the club are pennyless right?

                      Striker position has been an issue now especially given Welbeck's injury issues the past couple of seasons. Yet, we continue to ride it out with Giroud. He can be brilliant, but when it counts, he misses chance after chance after chance after chance. Iwobi might become a consistent scorer but he's raw.

                      Wenger, please do something quick because our rivals all got better. Now is not the time to be stubborn, but understanding the reality that there are now at least 6 other teams with great managers that can knock us out of the top 4.

                        Agreed. Also how he's always saying it's such a tough market. Doesn't seem that tough for everyone else...?

                        Now we are scrapping at the deadline yet again and he wants to justify by saying "we made a signing" in Xhaka. I'm happy to have him don't get me wrong. But good grief we need a freaking striker.

                        Walcott has been playing quite well on the wing yet Wenger apparently shot that down? I don't get it.

                          It's to the point where I just want to see a defender signed, and if that's it, fine.

                          I'd rather see the likes of Iwobi and Akpom given a change in attack over Chambers and Holding being given too many chances at the back. I think the back is where we need experience over everything else.

                          Also, Arsene seems to think that perhaps Alexi can play in the striker role—maybe that means we buy a wide player instead of a striker. You know what? Fine, great—just do something, please.

                            This club doesn't want to win. Its that obvious. It is seriously turning me off from wanting to watch any games anymore.

                              Gabriel injury apparently not too serious.

                              Whew. For a second there I thought we were going to have to sign somebody........
