Another success story for our medical team. We should see how much we could get selling our medical team to that hospital in Switzerland that allows people to kill themselves - save a fortune on drugs, just let our guys try to make them better.

Bischoff :haha:


I think his most memorable thing in an Arsenal shirt was getting on the wrong coach after a game. Says it all really.

Now slogging it out in the third tier of German football. I'm guessing Wenger owed his dad a favour or something there.

Forget Diaby...our injury list is a joke. Ox, Rosicky, Gibbs...what the heck is going on in training?

There must be a clause in the contract that allows the club to get rid of this guy if he doesn't play a game in, say, 5 years? Or what about his residency status - if he doesn't have a job, can he be deported?

I feel sorry for Diaby of course, and it'd be great if that clogger who injured him gets run down by a bus, but we need the money being wasted on Diaby to pay a player who can actually play. That's just common sense isn't it?

Love the deportation idea, infact lets widen it slightly & suggest every French person at Arsenal is sent home, especailly if their retirement age & beginning to become a burden - oh hang on a minute, we need to come up with a plan for Kos.

if true i'm really sorry for the guy. thing is he is still 27...even if we release him (i think we are close to doing so what with his squad number being changed and all) then he could always go back to ligue 1 and play out the winter of his career.

there have been quite a few stories this season that Diaby refused to be paid until he was fit again. Fair play to him. You never read stories about him out clubbing etc, only stories that he works hard to be fit. His career was ruined by some thug but I really hope he gets fit and stays fit. He can be a very good player. Ive never understood the hate towards him from some.

I don't think anyone genuinely hates the guy, we all wish him well, and I want nothing else to see him replace Arteta in the team.

But the realistic chances of him playing again for us week in week out are unlikely.

Good for Diaby if he's back playing again, but he shouldn't be anywhere near our first team (or his country's) until next season now - we've got too much at stake to be gifting game time to rusty players back who have been out for that long, and I'm not sure it's worth the risk from his POV either?

Diaby is a perfect example of what's wrong at the club anyone with any common sense would have got rid of him a quite while ago, he's 28 next month and he's only played about 3 good games for us in his entire career, what a total waste of money, he's got talent but he's never going to be fit.

Blind faith if ever you saw it.

I really hope that if you ever suffer an injury or illness and go on sick leave, your boss doesn't have the same attitude as you. you'd be fucked

They will, no one keeps someone on for 8 years if they are ill it doesn't make economic sense for a business, you'll get a few months at best, it's a business not a hospital. Think you get x amount of days paid sick leave in the normal world, the rest of the time your on your own.

Might sound harsh but that's life.

I wish Diaby the best. He's an injury prone player but I really don't trust our medical staff and training methods. With the amount of injuries we pick up for healthy players, Diaby doesn't stand a chance. He should look to move on if he wants to stay fit. The past few injuries have been picked up in training or having being rushed back and straight into first team action.

With this sort of case, I won't begrudge the club for keeping him on. He picked up a nasty injury when he was young and full of potential. In the real world, he'd have been moved on but I'm glad Arsene and the club aren't that harsh. I just hope we get a few decent years out of him because he has a load of potential.

True but to be fair footballers earn a lot of money, in the real world if you get sick you'll get a few weeks pay and that'll be it, it's not the clubs fault he got injured, I don't really feel sorry for him when he earns in a week what many people don't even earn in a year so he's got plenty to live on and won't go without.

The problem for us is that due to our wage bill being so high keeping players on long term injuries in doesn't make any sense with our current policy, we've had an awful lot of injury prone players and to be honest very little back for keeping them.

With so many injuries it's unlikely he'll stay fit for any prologonged period of time now and he's 28 in May, that's peak years for a footballer.

We don't have many long term lay offs on the wage bill so Diaby is a rare case. If he was bought in his mid twenties and had a major career before us, I'd agree with you, but in this case, I think sticking by him is the right thing to do. We're acting with some compassion. He earns a lot but if he's gone without pay for this year then it shows he wants to get back to fitness. I remember he used a whole summer to get fit one season but eventually broke down.

Honestly, I think the training methods aren't helping an already injury prone player and this time he needs to be handled with a lot more care. In this modern day with a player so young, we should be able to get this right.
