Frimpong ?


They claim Frimpong and Miguel as recent Academy graduates, but they were both 16 when they joined.
Spose that counts, but I was being picky

They've had Yannaris since he was a foetus
Never criticise a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes.
That way when you do criticise him you'll be a mile away.
And you'll have his shoes.

Oh right. I always had Frimpong down as a long term Arsenal product. He looks like a genuine talent tbf. If he plays, it will be interesting to see how our thieved prospect Razak deals with him, as Razak is much less experienced.

interesting too to see if Razak starts or if they brought him back to cover Owen (in case he pulls up). Either way I hope to see him have a run out. Looks OK and it would be a test like you say

Catch 22 is that althouigh they are getting good experience on loan, this would also have been a good tester for Guidetti, Scapuzzi, Bunn etc to at least play some part. Now Tevez has let us down, there's a space for a 4th striker.

I was looking for the squads for today's game. Anyone knows the 18 man squad? Are the starters who played on Sunday part of the squad?

Does he not mean a meal with colleagues? I call that a work dinner too.

To me, a business lunch is something you share with someone from a different company/organisation, with the meal itself being secondary to whatever you're discussing.

Yeah it's a "get to know each other" kind of meal, we're two different departments of the same business that are working on a project. There's no talking about the project tonight though.

Not sure where that fits in Carl's work/food formula.
