...with a back 5 of Cech, Bellerin, Koscielny, Mustafi and Monreal, we are looking damned good in defense!

:-( That comment was so jinxy that I can virtually hear all their ligaments snapping from here.

No worries. Young Bob Holding looks good too.

Hmmm. Talking of injuries, we all seem remarkably unbothered by the fact that Coquelin could be kernacked for the rest of the year.

I fear that may be more of a loss than we think.

Not to mention Coquelin (RIP), Elneny and Xhaka as options in front of them. And hopefully Theo's new found enthusiasm for pressing and supporting Hector will influence young Iwobi to do the same on his side.

The most interesting aspect of Saturday for me was how well we played with Sanchez up front. That's two in a row and it wasn't that long ago that it still didn't seem to work. Is it just me or did Wenger at some point say that he had signed Sanchez as a striker?

He's mentioned a couple of times before he sees him as a similar player to Suarez in that role

Both probably, more's the pity :-(
