Of course it's possible we'll challenge. I'm not saying it's likely we'll win either, but the chance isn't 0 like you seem to claim.

Nice to see quite a few balanced posts on this subject. So, finally back to football again. Who do we play against this weekend?

You said ACL tear, not more games. I can't see our squad being sufficient for the next 10 months either. If one wants to be positive Bats has had one more year to develop and is maybe a better player now.

Remind me who we had as a backup to Costa.

Bats? Quite a few clubs playing one up front have one good/decent backup striker.

And thanks Ross for leaving some time for us to find a replacement.

Good. Fits the profile of the recent signings. Good age, good engine.

Maybe Rudiger, Morata and Bakayoko were done months ago.

Who will cover for Alonso? Zappacosta looks pretty right footed. And Kenedy... Assuming we get Zappacosta and Drinkwater will be signed LWB is the gaping hole what I can see.

Juve asked about Bellerin today. Would hope the Sandro deal was still on but Bellerin plays on the right doesn't he?

I try load a new page but I seem to be stuck on the same all the time. What's wrong? It's the page where we allegedly miss out on a player and James is writing about how bad our board is.

I would say "potential disaster". If we are lucky with injuries and so on it's not impossible to manage the season up to January with a small squad.

Is he any good?

What's this with players suddenly preferring Pool to us? First VVD and now Ox? Is it the lifestyle in Liverpool? The lure of trophies?

Assuming Ox leaves I can't understand why Wenger started Ox in the games so far. Surely he must have known about it or was he hoping to change his mind? Or that he would get injured? We have made some good signings so far but the ones we are linked with now are slightly underwhelming. I hope they can surprise positively if we do sign them.
