Hodgson and Deschamps snaffle six Gunners

The interlull will be back with its usual whimper next week as a round of international friendlies see Arsenal player flung far and wide around the globe.

France versus Germany looks like the fixture most likely to pique the interest of Arsenal fans with Didier Deschamps calling up Bacary Sagna (presumably having not watched him this year), Laurent Koscielny (presumably having not watched him this year) and Olivier Giroud.

Abou Diaby, thankfully, won’t be taking part after Arsene Wenger made clear the midfielder wasn’t ready to juggle domestic and international commitments.

There’s no news yet on Joachim Loew’s Germany squad, although you’d expect both the BFG and Poldi to get call-ups.

At Wembley, the FA’s 150th anniversary celebrations get into full swing with a prestige showdown with next World Cup hosts Brazil. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Jack Wilshere and Theo Walcott are all in Roy Hodgson’s squad and if it weren’t for the injury picked up last night Kieran Gibbs might have joined them. Surprisingly, whoever it is who is in charge of Brazil didn’t have the balls to pick Andre Santos.

Elsewhere, potential call-ups include Wojciech Szczesny travelling to Dublin with Poland and Santi Cazorla’s Spain playing Luis Suarez’s Uruguay in Doha – a venue no doubt linked to dodgy World Cup voting patterns.

Gibbs out for 3 weeks. If its the normal 3 weeks instead of usual Arsenal 3 week then we should be okay

Big Chief from Antarctica

Munich game on the 19th combined with the usual Arsenal 3 weeks..

ffs.

kevs

I’m really looking forward to the munich game, santos v Robben, what could possibly go wrong?

Cygan's Magical Left Foot

Nothing would go wrong, we have two top top top quality players in every position and all we need is to trust those players and we can compete at the highest level as there is no player out there we feel is top top top quality to add to our squad. People might look at the 21 points between us and the leader and think it is a lot, in away it is, but don’t you all forgot we still have 14 games to play and this gap can be closed and we win the title, CL and FA Cup… Read more »

Lets hope all of our boys come back in one piece

Somone has to get injured, has to!

Arsenal > Spurs

Wouldn’t mind if the injuries were to Robben, Ribery, Schweinsteiger, Mandžukić , Martínez, van Buyten, Lahmm, Müller, Tymoshchuk and Kroos… Just saying.

arsene

Just reading those names made me wet myself. ffs .

Cheadle

I know you don’t mean it but dats after typing in all those names. I think any injury to anybody is not a good thing

Cheadle

NO NO NO too much negativity be positive!!!!

sube

Start of the dreaded international week….again.

A N Other

Arsenal should buy a left back in the remaining hours to stand a chance for 4th.

My last time, too!

Captain chris

Deadline day, and no new signings——

Merlin's Panini

then we’re rather screwed, I suppose.

Breezy

Injuries? at Arsenal …. never!!!!

Q

Am I the only one who senses we are near the very end of the Wenger reign? For some reason I get the feeling le boss won’t renew his contract and may even possibly step down this year. His body langauge on the touch line kinda gives off that impression. Has anyone else got this impression or is it just me?

a gooner in Manchester

I think, it’s just the start of 10 more years

peter

blogs if you can see this, your getting worse… seriously i used tor espect arseblog and your “live transfer” ‘jokes’ are not funny. Your almost as bad as justarsenal.com sort it out

North Bank Gooner

Are you mad? Its up to the minute, with all the details of the comings and goings, with insightful comment.

I was especially impressed with the punditry of the German fella, Shepherd. Hit the nail on the head regarding our busy transfer window exploits.

Genius.

(or is it Guiness, im not sure??)

Henners

I’m sure he’ll jump through hoops for you your highness. Obviously it’s irrelevant that all the other thousands of people who actually appreciate the effort put into this FREE AND VOLUNTARY blog like it, because if Peter doesn’t like it then fuck me it better be overhauled entirely. Sort out your attitude or just don’t bother commenting on/reading the blog.

Joe

I’ll look forward to reading ‘Peterblogs’ in the near future.

Nero

You sound like a bitch, Pete, unfortunately there seems to be more of your type claiming to support arsenal in recent years. I think we can all agree that you can fuck right off

peter

im being a bitch? because im saying that this blog used to be a good read and now recently seems as if its being written by some idiot from the daily mail? and im most likely one of a few who comment on this blog that attends 90 % of r away games so stfu

Frog

Peter is slang for dick.

Rufusstan

Another interlull where I spend more time praying to whatever spirit will listen for no injuries…..than actually watching football.

International friendlies, Hmmmmmm. What are the odds of the traditional recipient of our prayers gaining a sudden 10 day injury on Saturday; diagnosed by Dr Rednose?

Rodders1971

I second that…hang on my phones going, we must’ve signed someone!
‘Dont forget to get milk’ on your way home’
Sigh.

Podolski has sort of been dethroned of that LW spot by Rues recently so need to worry about him playing.
