Arsenal v Manchester City, 7th August, 6pm, ITV

Why has the ref even played extra time in a friendly anyway?

Wenger will be fuming. He'll have to find an excellent excuse not to spend now.

[adzzzbatch]

Not good...

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Not too sure why there was added time for a friendly anyway.

I thought I heard the tannoy say three minutes but like you say absolutely no need for injury time.

And for Gabriel it really was injury time

[Ernesto]

While it's no excuse for the injury, why did the ref inexplicably play over a minute of stoppage? He didn't do that the first half...

[Munchies]

Gabriel out

Oh well

[Kano]

The injury curse that will never go away.

A real bad one for Gabriel that.

I guess it was a pre-season warm up for the ref too and he was practicing getting the gypos back into the game.

[Master Splinter]

I hope Gabriel is fine, but despite being the most senior current CB option, he's also the dodgiest and most reckless. Holding and Mustafi/Manolas next week then.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bielik for CB.
