I said before that game I would of taken a point, Sunderland are a quality side, and they proved that by giving the Arsenal team no room to play. Well done to them I say. I still can’t believe that Spurs score, is this an early April fool or something?

Bischoff played for the first team twice in german league, I dont know why Wenger wasted time on him.

Matts right too, very interesting facts on the training methods. It could also have something to do with the emirates pitch, we didn’t have as many injuries at highbury

All clubs seem to go through these injury crisis’- but Arsenal and Newcastle seem to always be top of the list. I think you could have hit the nail on the head with buying injury prone players on the cheap. Villa got Martin Laursen from Milan for peanuts. A bargain but one which meant we would never see Laursen regularly. Also- good facts about the training regime. Very interesting.

Although there is also a large slice of luck involved- like you mention. No one can predict 2 broken legs, a fractured leg and a broken back. That could happen to anyone.
