Pre-season Friendlies Thread

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Okay from doing a very brief search, I have found that the following players have all competed in either the euro's or the copa America this summer, but have all returned to action for their clubs and are playing in pre season friendlies already -

rashford, rojo, cavani, Thiago silva, Miranda, di maria, lucas moura, coutinho and pastore,

but yet our pussys are still to return to action, and some haven't even returned to training :roll:

After his interview, I reckon he's pulling a sicky to try and force wenger into making a new defensive signing!
