As soon as I start following Arsenal, they become an injury ward. Walcott, Wilshere, Alexis, Coquelin, Welbeck, Flamini all hurt. Mertesacker missed some time earlier in the season. Need to get some guys healthy if we want to threaten the mighty Leicester City.

In other news, lots of rumors starting to fly about who Arsenal might add in the January transfer window. Looks like we're after a couple of young kids in La Liga, among others. One plays for Porto, don't remember who the other plays for. Also some rumors we're willing to offer ?600K/week to Messi. Don't see it happening, but who really knows. If I were going for pipe dreams, I think I'd want Neymar. More years left in his prime than Messi. I really don't expect any big moves with Wenger being such a tightwad.

Also worth noting, Hull dropped a decision to Derby County 4-0 in the Championship on Friday. They now sit at 4th on the Championship table after peaking at 1 earlier.
