Abou Diaby watch?

[Syn]

Came back in the reserves today and scored the equaliser!

Then went off injured.

He went over on his bad ankle while putting the ball in the net. But played on after and was moving freely enough. He was taken off but he was only supposed to play an hour anyway according to Wenger.

But yeah, it is quite tragic. Can't see his career having a Van Persie style turnaround because his injuries seem related whereas Van Persie kept snapping different parts of the body. And there's also the fact that Van Persie clearly had a lot of talent and was scoring whenever he was fit, whereas Diaby at his best runs past a couple of players and does something stupid at the end of it.

Abou Diaby can still be a "massive" player for Arsenal, according to Arsène Wenger.

The highly-regarded France midfielder has been at the Club for six years but a succession of injuries have stopped him from realising his full potential.

Diaby has just 54 minutes of first-team action under his belt this season but Wenger has faith in his compatriot - even if he won't select him for the Aston Villa game.

"Diaby is available again, but he should be in the group next week," said the manager. "I don't want to take any gamble on him now. Apart from that it will be the same squad as at Everton.

"He can be massive for us, but at the moment we have had so many setbacks with him that we don't want to take a gamble. He needs another game [for the reserves], and then he will be ready."

“He is the first player who would be on the France teamsheet in midfield when he is fit.

That bit made me laugh

Diaby will have a great season.

Then push for a move to PSG in the summer.

Wengers ass has got to be on his mouth. He cant stop spouting shit every time he opens it!

[Power n Glory]

Wenger isn't talking shit though. This is what Blanc told Wenger! It's right there in the article but Ach, once again, chooses to be selective with the quotes. Diaby actually looked decent playing for France.

[4-3-3]

it seem to me Ach never seen diaby play. he is better than all of our midfield when fit. but then it has been long since he kicked a ball.

[Injury Time]

Dead Diaby better than bad Diaby tbf, really like good Diaby but loooong time since seen him
