“I'm actually glad that it happened. As one player said after the game, it was refreshing to lose. It showed us that we're vulnerable and that we can be beaten when we don't play well. I think if we would have gone undefeated in league, we would have been in for a rude shock in the playoffs. This brings us back to earth and shows us we still have a lot to work on.”
Chris Woods
“We have lost many players over the break when we should have come back refreshed,”
Arsene Wenger
“It's refreshing in one way, knowing that I've got to come in and prove myself all over again and slowly work my way back into the swing of things, but at the same time it's something I've been doing my whole life. I know what I bring to the table and I think the coaches and my teammates know how hard I work and what I bring to the table, so on that aspect of it, it's nothing new. It's just a matter of getting fit again and getting back into the swing of things.”
Alecko Eskandarian
“When I have found intense pain relieved, a weary brain soothed,and calm refreshing sleep obtained by a cigar, I have felt grateful to God, and have blessed His name”
