Question to tob or other longterm Prem followers, as the cute brunette who runs onto the field for Chelsea to care for injured players piqued my interest.

The announcers always refer to these people as ‘physios’,…? are they M.D.’s ? because in American football, there are actual Orthopedic Surgeons (team physicians) present on the sidelines who come running….well, more like walking onto the field to examine and render aid, I was wondering if soccer/football has the same credentialed coverage???

Who is 'she' by the way?

He is a stubborn man but if he brought in players who are not the same type of player wenger goes for it would make a difference.
We need strong aggressive defender or holding defensive midfielder to make a difference to the team.

So, when you guys say ‘physio’, then I assume it does mean Doctor.

Cool. I ran it.

^ She’s not just a pretty face but, also well educated and experienced . I’m just wondering if anyone will question her judgment or, in general, any *team management pressure Prem club doctors may be under which undermines their authority* in regards to how she initially assessed the situation of the collision with the Chelsea goalkeeper?

Concussions in American football (both pro and college) involving recent more severe hits on quarterbacks during play have been in our National news the past couple weeks with I think fans actually calling for a certain college coach to be sacked.

Steed, she's had good training (E.R. dept., sports medicine) and during the Arsenal match I watched her watching the Chelsea goalkeeper closely after the collision for any delayed symptoms of concussion.

She's o.k. in my book.

I reckon we've all got the chances for points today, even if it is only one.

Oh well, that's my weekend ruined. Good luck guys.

[Pizzamorg]

Eight nil?! What the hell is going on in that game?

[Pizzamorg]

And Leicester give away points again. ****s sake. I dunno what is going wrong but these last four games have been just abysmal infuriation as a fan. What happened?

That's what happens when you try to do things on the cheap. Never been more angry or embarassed with our shambolic team. The club made it perfectly clear in the summer that their ambition was to finish 17th. I would take that now.

I feel bad for you Steedeel, that is a pretty shameful result. When I saw the scoreline a few minutes ago, I had to do a double take just to be sure I was reading it right.

Looks like neither of us are having a good time of it lately.
