Arsenal look set to head into the hectic festive schedule with no recognised full-back after it was confirmed André Santos would be out of action for around three months with ligament damage to his right ankle.
The club revealed on Monday that the Brazil international – who had impressed in recent matches following his August transfer deadline move from Fenerbahce – was set to have surgery in his home country after sustaining the injury in what was effectively a meaningless final Champions League group game away against Olympiakos last week.

Manchester United midfielder Darren Fletcher is to take a break from football after being diagnosed with a chronic inflammatory bowel condition.
The Scottish international has made just eight Premier League appearances this term, scoring in the 6-1 defeat to Manchester City at Old Trafford.
He has not featured for the Red Devils since the 2-2 draw with Benfica in the Champions League on November 22.
"On behalf of Darren Fletcher, Manchester United wishes to announce that he is taking an extended break from football for health reasons," read a statement on the club's official website.
"Over the past year he has had several absence periods which we have attributed to a viral illness in order to respect his right to medical confidentiality. Darren has, in fact, been suffering from ulcerative colitis (a chronic inflammatory bowel condition) for some time preceding this.
"Whilst he was able to maintain remission of symptoms for a considerable period this has proved more difficult recently and Darren’s continued desire to play and his loyalty to both his club and country has probably compromised the chances of optimising his own health and fitness.
"He has therefore accepted medical advice to take an extended break from the demands of training and playing in order to afford the best chance possible of achieving full remission once again.

Shame. Hope he can get better.

That's rough. Hasn't been the same player for the last couple of seasons but that's pretty understandable in the circumstances. Now buy a bloody midfielder Fergie

makes the failure to buy a midfielder in the summer even more damning though. It's not like they haven't know about the extent of his illness for quite a while

Pogba looks like he could do with a loan move at this point. He didn't really look ready for the first team in his Carling Cup appearance

That was cruel, but it seemed weirdly inevitable, in real time, once Odense started breaking. I like Fulham but I couldn't stifle a LOL tbh.

Ach, why can't I watch that video on my phone? It's just my type of thing.
I've got very warm feelings towards the Europa League right now. Extremely annoyed at clubs not treating it like a proper tourney - that's the basic reason for its low status, it's a self-fulfilling diss. And change its name back too please.
― Ismael Klata, Thursday, 15 December 2011 12:11 (twelve years ago) link
yeah-
Daer clubs that think ur above uefa league- ur not. it's the best tournament you could qualify for. stfu and play some senior players kthks

Yay, it worked that time - that's lovely, brought a tear to my eye. 'Embarrassed to be in the Europa League', up yours United.

I think you mean English clubs not treating it like a proper tourney, AFAIA everybody else does.

Sorry, Premiership clubs
tbf it was Evra who said he was embarrassed, and we all know he's an arsehole

Ha, possibly that's true - my assumption was that PSG and Roma were halfway competent.

Don't agree with having the shite teams from the Champions League joining the competition halfway, that devalues it, then it becomes easier to dismiss it as the You're 'Opeless League
― Derek Pringles (Deep in the Tony Hart land), Thursday, 15 December 2011 12:29 (twelve years ago) link
Hm, I see Roma didn't even make it - apologies for neglecting you my sweet Europa League, I've changed, things will be different from now on.
― Ismael Klata, Thursday, 15 December 2011 12:29 (twelve years ago) link
I've got much love for the Europa League too. And the "self fulfilling diss" IK speaks of is so otm. This will also be the reason why City and United won't come far in the tournament; Basel was keen on kicking Utd's arse, a lot of clubs in the EL will be the same if not more motivated to do the same.
