If your club didn't have a single injury, who would you choose in your match day squad?
(c+p from the Football Thread)
Arsenal vs Spurs on Sunday got me thinking. Once we get Walcott, Fabregas and Rosicky back (who could all return quite close to one another apparently), coupled with Arshavin getting up to speed, we could find ourselves with a really strong midfield all of a sudden. Granted, we still need a box-to-box centre mid, but if we can have a bit more luck with injuries next season, it's suddenly not as bleak as it has been recently
If we were to have a fully fit squad available for a month or so, you'd have to wonder whether Eboue and Song would even get on the bench (although the latter's actually been performing alright in the last couple of weeks)
Walcott - Fabregas - Nasri - Arshavin
Not ideal by any means, but you've got to find room for each of those players, really. Then if we had a fully, fully fit squad, you'd probably be looking at a bench of:
Fabianksi - Djourou - Denilson/Song - Diaby - Rosicky - Vela - Adebayor/Bendtner (I'd start Eduardo alongside RVP)
But, of course, this is Arsenal, and it wouldn't be right if we didn't have at least three first team players out for six months or so
