Despite how important Arsenal is, not sure how wise it would be to ask him to start again on Tuesday? The injury will be fine, but back to back 90s with about 2.5 days in between after so long out is not a good idea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alberto2005 Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Seems a bit much to play him again so quick, but wouldn't be surprised. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Save him for Bromley. Keep banking minutes so he’s good for Wolves/Bournemouth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, back to Schar and Botman from Bromley, rotate everywhere else. Although, we do have Wolves the following mid week. So, they night hold him back for that.

Displayname Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Going to be a hard decision for Eddie to make when they are all available and match fit. Schär is the only natural Rcb, but Burn har probably been our best defender this season. Cant really leave out our future captain when he is up to speed either..

Not playing competitively for 9 months and then trying to do two extremely intensive matches in 4 days is a hell of an ask. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Looked rusty as fuck, understandably, but got better as the game went on. Hopefully no negative affects from playing and he’ll slowly work his back fully. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burn has been very good overall to be fair. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussiemag Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 I think he will be eased in. Schar and Burn haven’t done anything wrong in the PL. They’ll be given the opportunity until form drops or there’s an injury. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Thought we looked pretty clunky at times with two left footed centre backs so I'd want Schar back in but Burn has been superb Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellis H Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 He was really attacking the ball from offensive corners and free kicks. Should be good for a few goals in the next few months. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 So good to have him back. Completely off the pace as to be expected from such a long lay off. Out of his true position too doesn't help against a pacey side. Definitely grew into the game though which is encouraging. Excited to see who we get to be his long term partner to replace Schar.

He'll need the odd bang on the knee as an ACL isn't an impact injury so it'll do his confidence the world of good to know his muscles have strengthened, and he can twist and turn through a whole game as well. Sorry if that ruins your night. Edited January 4 by Abacus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
