With our 3 key midfielders now injured for at least the next 6 weeks and clearly we have to think about player fitness I just wonder what Emery's priorities will be over the next 2-3 weeks, if indeed he is going to prioritise any competition.
Thursday night, RB Salzburg, win and I believe we have the advantage of home ties in Round of 16 then home for 2nd leg of Qtrs and Semis (if we get through). Worth resting a few for that?
Next 3 league games: Brentford (H), Bournemouth (A) and then Brighton (H). Could really cement our top 3 credentials 'if' we get a good points haul.
Then FA Cup Newcastle (H).
Which would you prioritise or forsake if you had to or wanted to?
FA Cup would be the one I would put 3rd on list of priorities.

Agreed Trinity. Love the romance of trying to win the FA cup but with the prizes on offer through the league and Europe, I think it's a no brainer to be honest.

Same here, I think we have a European spot pretty much in the bag (unless we completely capitulate) I’m going all out the league if for nothing more than the financial aspect for next year so we might have funds to build the squad up more.
I’d love to win the Europa league but there’s a great opportunity in the league this year, city haven’t be their usual and arsenal are rattled, they will lose some games for sure, it’s a shame we are getting some injuries as it just got tougher but still the opportunity is there
