Arsene Wenger confirmed that William Gallas could be out of action for a number of weeks following Arsenal's 2-0 win over Porto in the UEFA Champions League.Justin Hoyte costs 5.12 "units" but put up -1 over 2 games to start the season. Not sure the Plan B (C or D?) if Djourou is hurt come Saturday. Last year we learned that Flamini is a decent left back, and Hoyte could play at right back. But would either Hoyte or Eboue partner Toure? Would Gilberto move back into defense?
The French international pulled up with a hamstring injury in the dying moments at Emirates Stadium, and had to be substituted
...
Arsenal also lost Johan Djourou to injury during the warm-up for the Porto game, as Justin Hoyte came in for a suprise start at left-back with Gallas shifted across to partner Kolo Toure.
Thoughts? Wild speculation? Neal? Anyone?
any news on when Y! will post points from Monday night's POR:BOL match?
ReplyDeleteFor sure Flamini would play this weekend, dont think wenger has to bring gilberto to defense! If Djourou is not ready for next game then Hoyte plays center!
ReplyDeleteGallas could still play, so I am keeping him right up till the last minute! Flamini and Gilby are middies so no point slotting them in. Just go for Toure and Eboue, and traitor Ashley Cole for a 3-man defence!
ReplyDeleteJeremy, what's your view on TUGAY this week? ;-)
Have to agree, from a fantasy perspective all that matters is if the real defenders play. Let the real managers worry about playing midfielders as defenders.
ReplyDeleteAnyone know when Lauren might return?
ReplyDeleteLauren? Probably never?
