When the city doesn't invest in salt/snow-cleaners, "snowstorms" such as these tend to shut down everything.

The worst part is being in school up north and have your fam be all excited about some November weather :stopitslime:

Another thing about the match, Lee Mason's tweedy bird self has to be the most incompetent ref in the premier league.

Btw not sure of you guys know this but Ramsey is out for 6 more weeks. We def need replacements now if we are being serious. Jack also out for a while. We can't play all these matches with no midfield.

Edit: and just one striker Giroud :beli:
fack. do you know what the setback was with ramsey.

these injuries and the flamini red are coming at the best possible time :sadcam:

:whew: one things for sure, we'll def find out what this team is about that life

about to be a real hot spring

Apparently in training he re-injured his calf. That 6 weeks figure doesnt seem to be verified though. In any case he out for the foreseeable future. Injuries pilign up right before our toughest stretch of the year. Arsene been grinning like a fool lately to the media about signings though so lets see what happens.

:whoa: we're talking the same sh1t, but supposedly i whine a bit too much, getting under lads skins :banderas: so the less said the better.

even if we do on the off chance get draxler i still dont think that will be enough, cos like everyone says, we need a proper proper striker and mone are available atm. i personally think were kinda fucced :yeshrug: that schedule we've got is a problem bruh, like a look at the fixture sheet and laugh out loud in disbelief type problem. if they somehow manage to get out of it with us being around 3rd and still in a cup, id consider that a great sccomplishment

I think it comes down to what expectations you have for the team. I still belive we have a good chance to win at least 1 trophy this season. The issue however, is fooling ourselves into thinking we have a squad that can compete for a trophy on all fronts. That would take a miracle at the moment. The league for me takes precedence..we can beat any team on any given day in the Premiership... then FA Cup. Play disciplined at home, and try and nick a goal in Munich, but it will take a marvelous 2 legs to beat Bayern and its not worth the cost of tiring ourselves out for domestic fixtures IMO.

i dont have any expectations tbh. i just enjoy being able to believe we can win stuff again...and i hear you about the fixtures but the catch 22 that comes with playing favourites with competitions is that you can fucc yourself and the season up real quick. prem def comes 1st, with fa cup 2nd. theres no way on google earth our squad can compete with the top tier euro teams over two legs.
