No one put any specific return date for Rudiger.

What are you even on about? Lampard already said last week that Rudiger has been on a mini pre-season to get his fitness level up. It's now good that we have a timeline of when to expect he can get back on the pitch.

Pulisic type deals would probably be the smartest move ahead of the Euros either way. But who do you think would be available for such deals if they aren't pursued by Europe's biggest clubs?

Lampard said he could consider playing Pulisic up front if Abraham is not fit.

+ Barkley out with illness and Rudiger could be available in 7-10 days.

Hope there's a clause at the very least. He could definitely get into our team and it's been that way for some time.

Obviously he can still improve because he's still young etc. People didn't fancy him because he isn't a flashy player or the flavor of the month.

In some ways, Pepe has been "fortunate" that the overall mess at Arsenal has been dominating the headlines. No one is talking about his struggles in England so far. Compare that to the mass hysteria from the US media when Pulisic wasn't playing!

Why do you make prioritizing from the back first sound like a very negative thing? Regardless of the football style a team play, the defence is always key. You see it with City now. They play all this great football but can be found wanting defensively, especially right now with the injury problems.

There's also Arsenal against Bielsa's Leeds.

Nottingham Forest at home for the 3rd season in a row. lol At the least some of the younger lads will get game time.

Whaaaat? I think you're overthinking this position thing for someone having a dip in form. Mount has been the No.10 when he's not playing out wide. And he's not even a wide player!

aka nothing changed.

Odds on new Everton manager being appointed on Thursday and then getting the first win on Saturday?

Arsenal are a very confused club...

Deja vu...
