That's true, to be fair it all revolved around Payet last season and we now know he's lost the faith, hardly surprising the team has taken a nose dive.

Question is will they spend or brace themselves as dance partners with Sunderland for the annual relegation waltz :lol:

The defence is the start of the problem, and Kouyate being shifted back means they aren't as good in midfield. Then the attack is a nightmare with Payet not getting the ball in the right positions, and few\no options.

I would guess this is why the Euro 2016 star has lost "interest".

The "new" Stadium\field hasn't helped plus some tawdry summer signings, two or three of whom will be off in January...

Bilic seems to know what he is talking about, so I struggle to see him actually wanting the signings - and now they are linked with Snodgrass, some bod from Brentford etc.

I hope he can sort it out; wouldn't want the 'ammers in trouble.

Not exactly pressers but the papers are stating that Bellerin, Brunt & Ibrahimovic are all fit for the weekend.

Walcott still out for two more matches.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is "a very minor knock" by Walcott-style!

Wow - he was my slam dunk planned transfer this week - seems like Siggy will be getting another game after all. Back to the drawing board. :shock:

Huh... That makes Giroud place safer so I think I might transfer him for Benteke now.

You would think so, However with Ozil returning begind the ST there is a chance of going with pace, Iwobi Ozil Ox, Sanchez upfront.

I wouldn't count on it. This is Arsenal - you have to factor in the fact that their injuries nearly always take more time than they suggest.

Giroud started when all those were available, he's started and played 90 last 5 games

And he's bang in form

Mourinho: "I think Rojo and Zlatan are available. I cannot confirm with 48 hours to the match but I think so”

Zlatan seems a slight doubt based on that. So a reasonable flag after all perhaps, or at least a 90% one if it existed.

That probably makes me the only one who's gonna captain him.

Plus all dead teams out there. :)

He won't start, he may or may not not be on the bench. That's what has actually been indicated.

“We’re waiting to see what happens this morning."
