Whether or not the injured players start is one thing, but having a quality bench would help massively - people are slating Wenger for bringing on defensive players - what other option did he have?

If Walcott was playing yesterday we would have been 3-0 after 15 minutes, they were so naive on the break.

We are ravaged by injury - take the equivalents of Ramsey, Walcott, wilshere and Ozil away from any top side and they will struggle.

Injuries i think will ultimately cost us, but how can anyone be downbeat beating the scum - for the third time, wihtout conceding a goal.

£110m is a heafty price for 60% possession in one game and no shots on target.

THANK YOU!!! We're top of the injury table once again, with most of the missing parties being midfielders. We can't expect the same attack as earlier in the season.

Full time. :D
Contains '1-0 to the Arsenal', players taking selfies on the pitch, 'ooh to be a gooner', a half naked man, a crying girl,
'49 undefeated' and lots of cheering, shouting and general happiness

I disagree it's injuries that will cost us - this side has still shown a propensity to go missing when it comes to the crunch, injuries or not.

And as for those injuries we are largely to blame. Ozil - far more physically demanding league than Spain yet he was the only player not rested before Christmas and has played nearly every game since despite clearly being perennially fatigued. Ramsey - arguably overplayed and clearly his recovery schedule was all wrong, a 3-week injury becomes 3 or 4 months. Walcott - as Verheijen pointed out he was out for about 10 weeks and after starting to ease him back in we jumped the gun and he started 6 games in 3 weeks, playing 90 in all but Newcastle (79 mins) and Spurs (until injury and would have played 90 as no more subs).

Even though Wilshere's injury was clearly not avoidable our management of his injuries has been terrible. The usual farce led to him missing an entire season and since then it seems (to me at least) that he has spent half of the time playing through niggling injuries (and I would say the same for Arteta who I don't think has been fully fit for much of the past 12 months).
