Loan him to Manure he'd be fit and on a scoring spree in three months tops

Provided we made a deal to keep covering his wages.

Gutted for him and it's horrible news. Any Gooner that knows Dan Smith should smash his knee caps in with a bat! So pissed that he only got away with that challenge.

Serious questions have to be asked about the way we handle our players and their training regime. How has the guy picked up such a bad injury in training? Diaby needs to find some outside help and his own fitness coach if he doesn't already have one. He'll have to adjust his game slightly if he wants to keep on playing because he may have to retire very early.

Impressive how a challenge 7 years ago is still being blamed for Diabys injuries

Must get rid....

[Niall_Quinn]

This is rather like a trainer of thoroughbreds retaining and feeding a clapped out old nag. Is he a pet? What do we expect to get from this guy, even after nine months, when he has given us precisely nothing to date? This guy could end up with more playing time in his testimonial match than the rest of his career combined. I feel zero sympathy for him because he has been paid all this time. The players care fuck all about us if you recall, and we aren't so privileged as to pick up tens of thousands a week. He'll eat well even if he doesn't play. But the question is why would we ever retain him at all? Are we undertaking some protracted experiment related to health and fitness and must have him on the books because he's the primary test subject? Can't think of any other reason why he should be anywhere near the team. After all, how many years does it take of him missing entire seasons to figure he is injury prone? Could somebody please write to Wenger and at least drop a hint?

A good article about the Diaby injury.

Do you lot think he wants to get injured all the time? Money has nothing to do with this either. It's a fucked up moment for the guy so at least show a bit of support. It's a serious injury and could be curtains for his career. You can't wish that on one of you're own players. It's tough times for the club but don't act like assholes. Show a bit of heart as a Gooner.

Mate - I think we're done with the support now. A shame for the player but it happens and he is lucky he made his lucrative move before he broke down. There's little animosity towards Diaby himself, but we have suffered as a team while Wenger keeps the door open.

You're right when you say the club is rotting from the inside out. If we're done with that sort of support then it shows how bad the mentality of the club and fans are. Wenger should have done more and not gambled on his fitness so much over the years. Selling Song and depending on Diaby and declaring it was stupid but that has nothing to do with the player. It's mismanagement.

But fuck it, no point in talking in these situations. It just shows how rotten things have gotten.

lets pretend like this was never going to happen.
