Hello there, welcome to a brand new R-Splag R-Skass right here on R-Splag.com after what has

been a pretty good week, a pretty interesting week, a pretty event-filled week for the Arsenal

since last week's Spoke last Friday. Well lots has gone on. Most of it has been quite good,

of course, there's been some bad along the way as there always is, but that's part of the course

when it comes to this football club, right? You know, we qualify for the Champions League,

that's good, but we've lost Olivier Juru for four months, that's bad. And we were 2-0 down

against Everton, that's bad. But then we came back to make it 2-2 and that's good. So you kind of

have to live with the ups and downs, even in the very short term, but it was one of those

strange kind of weeks, wasn't it, because everybody was so anxious about Wednesday night.

I think that was affecting the mood and the Juru news on top of that, it was like, oh my god,

what are we going to do? All of a sudden, a player that loads of people, you know, don't have a

great deal of time for everyone's going actually, you know what, that guy is pretty important for us

in the grand scheme of things, even if we don't have anybody better. This isn't so good, it's amazing

what a fractured Tibia will do to change people's opinion of you, right? You got a feel for Juru,

actually, came on, made a big, big impact in the second half at Everton, scored a goal in the

last minute to get us a point. And then laid on, you know, he just sticks his foot out to block a

clearance as you would. You could do it 250, 500, who knows how many times in a season you've

blocked a ball like that and nothing would happen, but for whatever reason, something went snap.

And the initial prognosis was like, well, it could be a couple of weeks and then, you know,

it could be actually a couple of months and then it turns out he's going to be out until January.

So that's not good. And I know people have criticized the new fitness coach Shad Forsyth,

but there's what is Shad Forsyth doing? Well, I'm not sure he can, you know, put a fourth field
