Thinking out loud. What does our DM depth look like a year from now?
Sell Partey and Elneny, and bring a young player. It seems obvious.
It depends on if we get a good offer for Partey. Otherwise he will just stay and see out his contract
This post on the r/all reads like an Onion headline: “TIL that in the UK, it is extremely rare for a football club to relocate to another city, since the team is inexplicably tied to the city and culture there, rather than just being operated like a business.”
The malapropism is the cherry on top.
Can’t explain it.
He’ll sure have trouble extricating himself from that attempted explication.
Naaaaah White’s new trim is terrible hahahaha
‘Who do you pay to cut your hair?’
‘I don’t do that.’
Your shut your mouth
If you’re so inclined, I wrote a huge thing for Scouted about why we get young players wrong — which, among other things, looks at Henry’s time at Juventus. From there, found some hand-written scouting reports about Ronaldo and the like, and dove into some of the psychology of why we misuse or misunderstand players as they come up, and how to do better. There’s a trial thing if you’re not a subscriber.
I would have already published a BBQ this morning as well but have been a target for projectile vomit from various children (all mine). I don’t think I’ve missed a week in a year and a half, so I’m fighting to get it done! We’ll see.
Be good.
Thanks Billy
Safe to say that Sancho is pretty much finished at United?
I think he gets loaned back to Germany. He is on something absurd like 300K a week. No team will pay that. So the options are loan where United pay some of his wages or he takes a massive paycut (like 60%+). Don’t see him doing that. So, loan it is. Doubt United would loan him in England.
Don’t think he is totally finished at United though. His contract is until 2026, he could easily outlast Ten Hag.
Probably-- but beyond that, I am in awe of the howling void of football knowledge required to think we should spend 30m on him lmao
Reclamation Project FC
Saudi would be the obvious
If he’s available for 20-30m I’d take him here.
Not professional enough for Arteta
Wtf?!?!?
92% through the international break… 8% to go
I dreamt Buffon was playing LCM or left wingback for an opposition team in a heated UCL match what does this mean
Raya starting outfield tomorrow
Any news yet on whether the PL will have a minute of silence for Israel this weekend?
Think they will just do what the international games did. Hold a minutes silence but be vague about it. In memory of “the people who lost their lives” then don’t name a country.
I thought that was for the murder of the two Sweden fans?
Good question
For Palestine?
Does anyone else find Chelsea to be their most hated club?
Time for the usual refrain, “I hate Spurs because I’m a gooner. I hate Chelsea because I’m a human.”
Nah, easily Man utd for me
Up there.
Chelsea, PSG, United, City, Newcastle are all clubs I loathe. I hate Tottenham too but I feel they are more of a proper football team than all of those.
If I was Rams I would be training ball control, long passing, short passing, even dribbling 3 hours a day at minimum.
And when I come home I would put my vr setup and play for at least 2 hours lol
Zinchenko away to Spurs and home to United is one of the best back to back performances I’ve seen an Arsenal player produce especially considering the magnitude of both games
mikel has also absolutely nailed the exact time to substitute zinchenko for tomiyasu.
imagine seeing zina dominate with the ball, and once he’s gassed, boom tomiyasus on the pitch bitch try getting past him
he has been great in nearly every big game we have played.
Saw a post from Sports Bible saying west ham have a secret clause allowing them to sign a certain Arsenal.player before anyone else.
People are suspecting it’s ESR. Anyone else heard anything about this/is this valid?
rice buy back at 250m
Raya
White Saliba Gabriel Zinchenko
Odegaard Partey Rice
Saka Jesus Martinelli
Chelski 1-3 Arsenal
I get so annoyed when people refer to the league as just “Barclays”. Nobody calls La Liga the “Santander” or Ligue 1 as the “UberEats”. It’s such a small thing but it does my head in 😂
its kinda fun to say ironically
Isn’t just premier league now?
That’s the thing! It is just Premier League!! And people still just call it Barclays. I just read something on F365 about Wenger and the writer referred to “the first 15 years of Barclays”…it wasn’t even sponsored by Barclays at all until 2001.
As I said, such a minor thing but…grrrrr
To be honest with you, a lot and I mean a lot of people outside of the UK, that are not in finance, have no idea Barclays is a bank.
It’s a proper fancy sounding English word, that goes well with premier.
It’s a nickname
Going to the UAE to watch Walmart face Abu Dhabi in the Barclays.
I’ve actually seen quite a few people refer to Ligue 1 as UberEats lol
So much anti Arsenal media throwing “jinxed stats” this game just feels it won’t be plain sailing Chelsea are not to be underestimated…
I feel this will be our easiest top 6 team to beat.
Means nothing really because we never win these sorts of games easily. They are always narrow margins
