So it begins.....

Let me rephrase, Saka needs a break because I don't want him getting injured.

A perfectly phrased point I've no interest in these silly friendlies, but sometimes it's good for the players to keep playing. 19 days between Arsenal games is a lot

Is there Internationals? I thought our lads were off to Dubai again

Very true. For some of those players one game with their country might be best. Or 30 minutes off the bench. Don't really want to see Rice playing too much but Jesus could probably do with a start, and Zinchenko. Wouldn't mind seeing Partey get 70 minutes.

I remember when Liverpool and Spurs played in the CL final they had a huge gap before it. The players on both sides looked a bit rusty and it was a dreadful game (albeit a good result).
