He's dead to me. No ambition.
This. By all accounts Schneiderlin is still on vacation and hasn't made any statements about anything. Daily Mail article had literally 0 actual quotes.Morgan's Magic Snowplow said:Or the Daily Fail is just making up more bullshit and getting rises (and clicks) out of gullible fans.

Hahahahahah... :lol:
Typically, at least some of the first-teamers will get some run, when I saw Man U play the Revs in Foxboro 3 years back, Rooney played the whole first half. The lineup on the field is split 50/50 between first teamers, and reserves. It's better odds than preseason NFL football.Grin&MartyBarret said:Did some googling, but couldn't come up with anything, so I'll ask here:
I've got nothing going on Saturday and I'm thinking of grabbing a ticket to the Arsenal-Red Bulls friendly. Does anybody have a sense of what sort of lineup Arsenal's going to trot out? I don't want to drop $150 on a ticket to watch Arsenal's second team.
Well, he's hoping we don't draw DniproConigliarosPotential said:Meanwhile, in more relevant news:
http://www.arsenal.com/news/news-archive/20140523/who-could-we-face-in-champions-league-
The teams Arsenal could play in the final qualifying round for the Champions League are the winners of the following ties, with UEFA coefficients in parentheses (higher numbers = stronger opponents):
AEL Limassol (7) or Athletic Bilbao (54)
Dnipro (32) or Copenhagen (45)
Feyenoord (13) or Besiktas (34)
Grasshoppers (9) or Lille (45)
Standard Liege (38) or Panathinakos (30)
Not exactly a murderer's row, there, although I could do without two legs against Athletic Bilbao so early in the season. (Technically, Limassol plays Zenit St. Petersburg in the second qualifying round, but if Zenit wins they will become seeded, and Athletic will take their place among the non-seeded teams.)

It takes a month to pull splinters out of asses?
Other than Ozil, who was so prominently involved in World Cup play that they need rest?
Honestly, the team that traveled is most of the squad...I mean, do people want to watch Giroud play? I don't. A CB? I mean, I'd love to see Kos boss some MLS players, but I'd rather he be rested for the season. Ozil and Sanchez are really the only big guys that would be exciting to see.BRS BC said:
Sanchez? Podolski worked very hard to get his hands on the trophy and appear in every pic.
He was loaned out to SC Frieburg in Germany last yearblueline said:Coquelin is still with the team?
Gazidis: I never really like the words "big signing." Because for us, the key is finding the pieces Arsene wants. What may be a big signing for us may not seem so to others. I would say disregard everything you read. It's very seldom close to what we're thinking.
Yet it seems people just assume, at Arsenal, we're going to be in the Champions League. They assume we're going to be near the top of the Premier League. There's nothing that really distinguishes us from the other clubs in England, other than this man.
Dan Duquette approves. Oh does he approve.SI: Arsenal had a fourth-place finish for the second year in a row, but it's been 10 years since Arsnenal have won an English Premier League title. Can you contend this year?
Wenger: We did last year. We were 128 days on top of the league.
The Gray Eagle said:Loads of rumors about Calum Chambers from Southampton being signed. They are all the typical Arsenal "set to sign" or "closing in on" or "in talks for" headliens still, which means that nothing has happened at all. But the BBC is saying that it's really likely, and the Beeb is pretty reliable.
Chambers is a young right back (19 years old, highly rated on potential) and he's also played defensive mid and center back. Seems like if this happens, then Jenkinson goes on loan if not outright sale. Chambers would be the backup RB, 4th choice center defender (he's inexperienced there and couldn't be third choice yet) and maybe play some midfield this season. With the plan being that by the time he's 21 or 22, he takes over for Debuchy as fulltime RB.
Would be a good but surprising signing if it happens. He would cost a lot more than Wenger likes to spend on any defender, much less a 19-year-old. But he would add real quality depth to a squad that needs it.
With Debuchy there, probably not, but a very high potential guy. He could handle the league games if someone gets hurt, not sure if he's CL quality.Luis Taint said:
I saw that too, Is Chambers a first team guy, right out of the gate?
