Rosicky and Eduardo have left the treatment room. For once in GODONLYKNOWSHOWLONG, the injury list contained no one.
Until disaster chose to strike during training and Samir Nasri is now the first casualty of the upcoming season.
I would run around and trash about if I could but nothing's going to change anything about it.
This young dude made the switch from France last season and it was a good first season to have under his belt, one which would make way for an even better second season.
AND DISASTER STRIKES.
Is there a hex on Arsenal where the medical staff just refuse to go out of a job? I mean, wouldn't they love to take a paid holiday and never have to treat anyone?
Frustrated, frustrated.
Samy had a 44-game outing last term and it was fantastic not to be completely ridden by injuries. With such a serious injury now I wonder if there are any players out there who broke their legs and managed to not have their playing career dogged by related ailments.
I was in high spirits today, looking forward to the Austrian friendy which is coming up later and then this totally took the mood away.
I suppose there are certain positives which can be drawn. A replacement is not necessary, but Wenger should be looking into the odds of Rosicky staying fit while Nasri's out. I get the feeling that Tomas will be joining his bedside in due time. One less midfielder, albeit a creative one. We really still need our midfield enforcer.
A serious injury like that to a teammate can influence the mood of the entire team and it's a good thing it happened in pre-season. I don't think I need to bring up the effects of Eduardo's freak disaster.
I would scream OH GOD PLEASE NO right now but it won't help. In situations like these, even God can't help except to heal the leg faster.
So please, work your magic. If it were left up to the Arsenal medical staff 2-3 months out would mean 5-6 months.
