Victims of a Campaign- The Other Footy Teams Thread

Maybe

But it does sound like they don’t care about Conference League.

 

Lavia should come here. Get Sterling in his ear

 

Lavia spends a lot of time not making the squad because of injury, it seems.

 

San Marino won yesterday. Last time they won a match Arsenal went unbeaten.

 

They beat Lichtenstein 1-0 in the Nations League. And from what I heard it was their first ever win in a competitive tournament. Wow. National holiday there today?

 

Can't spell Lichtenstein without a big L.

 

Rice scored a good goal and then graelish vs Ireland

the 2 turn coats

 

I was gonna ask what the word is on Calafiori's knock/injury, but then decided to just google, so...

https://www.espn.com/soccer/story/_...efender-riccardo-calafiori-injured-italy-duty

'Calafiori, 22, who joined Arsenal from Bologna this summer, was hurt when Ousmane Dembélé caught him on the back of the leg with his studs after being tackled by another player.
Despite trying to play on he was replaced by Alessandro Buongiorno in the 71st minute.
However, Italy coach Luciano Spalletti said postmatch there is a chance that Calafiori could return to face Israel on Monday.
"We need to assess Riccardo but with our staff, we've a good chance to have him back with us for the next game," Spalletti said.'

 

If y'all are looking to kill and hour

 

they would prefer to lose for sure

 

Martin Odegaard subbed off with an ankle injury… didn’t look good at all. #NORAUT

oh my god its starting already

 

We might not have a midfield for the next month.

 

OMFG

First Jesus*, then Merino, Calafiori, now Odegaard. Am I missing someone?!!!

*I hard Gabby played for Brasil this week so maybe he's on the mend, but...

 

Nwaneri, Partey, Jorginho starting midfield with Lewis-Skelly and Salah on the bench.

 

Rice is only suspended for sp*rs unless I've missed an injury?

 

Fair enough, I was being hyperbolic.

If Odegaard is out for any length of time, maybe we play Saka at 8 and Sterling wide right.

 

From that still, I'm not sure I can bear to watch the video. Is it a broken ankle???

p.s. The NLD thread is finally up, in case we wanna take the convo there??

 

Arsenal gotta stop letting these guys goto these useless friendlies

 

Thx. Let’s pray his NT coach is correct in saying it’s a small ankle sprain. And let’s pray he’s also released to come home right away for treatment at Colney. Assuming of course thay that’s the best medical thing to do.

 

Just when I thought I couldn't hate international football mor.

 

They’re useless, but they aren’t friendlies, they are “Nations League” games. I’d prefer no in season international breaks. Finish the season earlier and let national teams f**k around in late spring and early summer.

 

I hear ya. But do you think you’d say that if you were an national team coach or executive?
