    I mean loans are generally considered much lower risks for the buying team, and less useful for the selling team....like a loan fee is never as much as a transfer fee, and you don't really loan older players unless they aren't in the first team picture and chances are you can't shift them permanently

    So I personally think that the ineligibility rule is an ok rule, makes it a bit more beneficial for the selling club without REALLY affecting the buying one

    I'm happy for Lingard to miss the 2 times we have played united if he gets to play the other 16 games he's available for

    It wouldn't have helped us with Lingard, but I'd prefer the old loan rules where you couldn't loan to a club in the same league. That would also hopefully lead to less of the good youngsters going to the 'big' clubs, allowing the rest of the clubs a fairer share of the talent.

    What, and play with only 10 men ... oh, wait a minute. Nah, that's not right. =)

    Rumours going around the Goonersphere that Bukayo Saka will be rested tonight against Olympiacos after he developed a hamstring problem against Spurs but he might not be fit for the weekend or the England squad.

    Only Leno and Xhaka have had more minutes on the pitch for Arsenal this season
  • OutcastLondonerOutcastLondoner
    Hopefully. He’s been carrying them all season. He was rested a couple of games ago because he apparently told Arteta he was fatigued, so the rumours might be true.
  • ASLEFshruggedASLEFshrugged
    Saka included in the England squad
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    Arthur and Yarmo playing for the U23’s tonight.
  • WHU_Champo_league_in_7_yearsWHU_Champo_league_in_7_years
    70 minutes gone and it sounds like they are both still playing and doing well

    Will be good to have them back, especially Masuaku, he's very important in those games against the better sides
  • OldCastleSwiftOldCastleSwift
    Jon Moss is the referee for this one, apparently.

    Great.
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    They won 3-1 and I think they both got around the 70 minute mark. That was an important win but they are still in danger of relegation this year as are the women’s team.
  • HamstewHamstew
    I'm glad he's ok and don't want to sound harsh but I actually dread the fact that Yarmo might get back into the first team this season.
  • FortuneseekerFortuneseeker
    thorn, The women’s team don’t appear to have had any real investment in the playing side. They let two of their better players go out on loan and only got one in to add to an already small squad. Manager went, Jack needs to get his house in order if we do manage to stay up, Aston Villa games will probably decide their fate.
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    Looks like Jack has become tired of his new toy.
  • EXETERHAMMEREXETERHAMMER
    I see Fornals is still a doubt. He is key, hope he is fit

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but am I right in saying that the U23 is counted as their own bubble, so you can't just call up players from that team, so anyone involved yesterday is unavailable for tomorrow

    If so, won't be seeing any of Coventry, Odubeko or Alves on the bench tomorrow (all 3 were on the bench against United)..and the same goes for Masuaku or Yarmolenko

    Gonna be the very thinnest bench ever, not sure we could even call on 7....

    Fab
    Coufal Dawson Diop Cresswell
    Rice Noble
    Bowen Lingard Benrahma
    Antonio

    Sub: Martin, Trott, Balbuena, Johnson, Noble, Lanzini.... that's 6, hopefully Fredericks is passed fit to make up the numbers
  • FortuneseekerFortuneseeker
    WHU, Have we cloned Noble?
  • OutcastLondonerOutcastLondoner
    Is Soucek injured or is Champo just trying to cause a collective heart attack?
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    If they train together they are one bubble.
  • stevesteve
    Fornals missing as well ,This might not end well =)

    Haha woops
  • LukerzLukerz
    4-2-3-1 today, has to be. If Fornals can’t make it then Bowen - Benrahma - Lingard behind Antonio. If we lose, so be it. No back five & no Noble please.
  • OutcastLondonerOutcastLondoner
    Ex said Fornals failed late fitness test.
  • YeoldhammerYeoldhammer
    Benrahma - Lingard - Lanzini for me as the midfield trio
  • Cuz1Cuz1
    Not a lot on the bench to change things about
  • EXETERHAMMEREXETERHAMMER
    Yep. No Fornals, but Benrahma starts I think
