Another Arsenal player out of the start of the season
Well, this last few weeks haven’t been good news for Arsenal on the injury front.
First we find out Rosicky will be not be back for the start of the season. It is looking more like the end of September now.
“According to plans I should be back on the field in September.”
“I’ve been walking without crutches for three weeks and preparing myself to train for two,” he added on his personal website.
Rosicky sustained a hamstring injury at the Emirates against Newcastle Utd in the FA Cup victory.
Then we get to Eduardo, who broke his leg against Birmingham at St. Andrews in February this year. Eduardo was expected to return to pre-season training. However, his progress isn’t as far as we thought. He resume training before the end of September, so we are looking at the end of the year to having him fully fit.
Finally, Kolo Toure has been struck with malaria and will also miss the start of the season.
A source close to the Arsenal squad said: “It was obvious to everyone Kolo was not feeling himself when he met up with the squad.
“He was rushed to hospital and tests showed up that he had contracted the disease. “
“The medical staff are very concerned about him and are trying to work out how long he will be out for. “
“This would be disastrous for the team because he is one of the leaders of the side and a very important player.”
So now do we need a defender? More than likely Senderos will replace Toure, but should we buy a permanent CB?

I feel that Senderos will take this opportunity and come good this time for us. I also think that Diaby will make the DM role his own. Finally I dont see Theo making much improvement this season.
we need two midfield dynamos for afc to even compete for trophies this term. we don’t have the depth to compete over the entire season. we just lost several big players and most of our youngsters are not yet first team material. we just don’t have the horses to compete for trophies. sans some big player acquisitions i expect arsenal to start the campaign strong and fade away at the end, again. patience indeed.
Kolo get well soon Ok!!!!!!
May be the this time for our boss to buy a new DF to stand with our honestly Kolo.
