Well Fabregas has replaced Gallas as captain as expected. Wenger was rather blunt when he announced it; claiming the matter is now over and in the past;

“Gallas will play against Kyiv, But he will not captain the team, it will be Cesc Fabregas.

“This is a permanent thing. But I don’t think I especially have to explain why. I have given you information but I do not have to explain to you why I make these decisions.

“This subject is now closed. You have to respect a little bit of the team’s privacy.”

Im not to happy about Gallas playing but hopefully Djourou will get to play alongside him, if its Silvestre i think it will be one step forwards and two steps back. For that we will just have to wait and see.

Fabregas was understandably happy to captain a club he feels is a great club, and it might encourage him to stick around for a while yet;

“It is a great honour for me to captain one of the biggest clubs in the world, It is a proud moment. I know it’s a big responsibility but together with my team-mates, I know we have the spirit and commitment to get back to winning ways and fulfil our potential.”

I’m not sure on his captaincy qualities but hopefully he will grow into the role and be inspired to find his best form of which has been lacking this season, its a great chance for him to establish himself as a club legend, a chance i hope he takes. I wish him all the best of British.

Lets just hope he lifts something big and silver this season!

Now onto injuries again with Diaby and Nasri injured again!

Nasi has another knee problem and is fast turning into the next Rosicky, there has to be some kind of problem with our medical system when we check the players before we finalise the deal, its the third time this season Nasri has had inflamation of the knee and its two times to many in my view. Shouldnt this have been picked up in the medical? yes it should have. I hope its not going to be a common sight but i think it will. Its exactly the same for Diaby, injury game game injury game game injury… catch the drift?

Im pushed for time at the moment so i cant do a mad long blog, everything is still under construction but should be sorted soon.

Til next time.
