Hi Ed's,

Is there any interest in Takefusa Kubo from Arsenal or any sides in EPL?

Thanks!

{Ed002's Note - No.}

Hi Eds,

Merry Christmas!

Please can you let us know if there is any truth to Arsenal being interested in Ronaldo?

I really hope not, but it seems to be popular amongst the press!

Have a great holiday period.

L5.

Hi Eds,

Not a player I have ever heard of or know anything about, but someone told me Arsenal have an interest or are looking to sign Max Caqueret from Lyon.

Do you know if he's someone we have been scouting? Is he any good?!?

5kywalker

{Ed002's Note - Not that I am aware and Lyon will have no interest in selling.}

Thanks for the quick response - after doing a google search it seems he is pushing Aouar out of the team.

Having never heard of him until today, is he a good prospect? I’m assuming he’s highly thought of if they have no interest in a sale.

{Ed002's Note - Right.}

Hi Ed's,

Do you know if the reported Arsenal interest in Franck Kessie is real?

5kywalker

{Ed002's Note - Franck Kessié (CM) Efforts will be made to secure a new contract, but the issue is over the wages continues with Milan struggling. Could potentially be sold but I expect agreement to be reached.}

Hi Ed's,

With it being reported that we have interest in Neves and Bissouma, do you know if it's an either/ or situation, or is it possible we could sign both if we shift out our existing centre mids? Appreciate that is a vague question but would be good to get your take on it.

They seem like different types of player to me and we definitely need an overhaul in the middle of the pitch.

Thanks in advance.

5kywalker

{Ed002's Note - Won’t be signing both - there is also interest in Berge.}


1.) 08 Jun 2021 21:25:33
Obviously not saying we will sign both of them but with guendouzi xhaka leaving the club. Plus odegaards loan ending surely a minimum of 2 midfielders will come in. Also willock may well leave. Lot of work to be done.


2.) 08 Jun 2021 23:30:55
Ed, is both Bissouma and Berg a possibility or is it one from two

Thanks.

{Ed002's Note - They have several options for what should be one spot with three leaving.}


3.) 09 Jun 2021 01:06:03
I'd imagine we will see more of azeez next season. Out of interest Ed I'm not sure if it's something you'd know about but any idea which u23 players we're looking to promote into the first team next season to cover some of these exits instead of looking in the transfer market. I'm guessing balogun and azeez will be.

{Ed002's Note - I would need to ask I am afraid.}


4.) 09 Jun 2021 01:57:24
ED, have you heard anything regarding Willock? Will he be given a chance in the first team or.?

{Ed002's Note - My notes say:
Joe Willock (CM) Newcastle want loan to permanent. Arsenal would like to keep him but if they persist in looking to other options there will be no space for him and he will be squeezed out. He is now 21 and would count as part of the squad.}


5.) 09 Jun 2021 10:05:00
Thanks Ed. If you ever find out would love to know but no worries if not.


6.) 09 Jun 2021 10:14:17
Hey, why everyone creaming over these two child's. It's that what the Glasgow herald is reporting?

Hi Ed's,

Any chance Arsenal (or anyone) are interested in Dumfries?! Looks quality.

Thanks.

Hi Ed's,

Unfortunately a bit of a 'how long is a piece of string' question, but how secure is Arteta in his job?

This season feels like we've fallen even further behind.

I understand give him time etc and I'm not calling for his head, just wanted to know if you have info on how he's viewed internally and if a replacement would be considered at the end of the season.

5kywalker

{Ed002's Note - Arsenal continue to have unresolved issues with management at all levels. You know already that there are players who are not happy. You can add to that at least two who realise Arteta is not tactically astute. Whether the club want to make a change of coach is pretty much an unknown to me.}


1.) 04 Apr 2021 22:06:38
Can the club actually be happy with the job Arteta has done/ is doing?

It's difficult to think of a reason why they would be.


2.) 04 Apr 2021 22:44:30
There’s always been talk that Kronke runs his clubs specifically so they still make money being mid table, which is why many internal teams at Arsenal had their budgets cut a couple of years ago. Let’s hope that not true G62, as if it is, then I fear the answer to your question is that the club is perfectly happy with the current situation.


3.) 05 Apr 2021 00:47:10
But didn't Kronke USA team win the superbowl a couple of years back?
I really don't see what more the club could do to improve the team financially other than hire a proven coach that is.


4.) 05 Apr 2021 06:34:55
Is it the manager or the players? Players want to play I guess and my worry is MA has embarassed/ pissed off Auba v Spurs, Laca and Pepe have been left out most of the season, Bellerin on the bench now, Holding was playing well then dropped, what Martinelli must be thinking Saliba even Gabriel, Nketiah etc . Let`s face it we have been poor at times this season and still these players aren`t picked. These days it`s about keeping players happy and to me it looks like North London doesn`t seem to do a very good job at the moment COYG.


 

 

05 Aug 2020 13:05:59
Hi Ed's,

Completely random question so I apologise.

Is there any hope that Arsenal would/ could re-sign Gnabry?

Would Bayern be willing to let him go or is he in their plans?

Thanks.

5kywalker

{Ed002's Note - He is not moving to Arsenal.}


1.) 05 Aug 2020 14:40:07
That is optimistic walker 😂.


2.) 05 Aug 2020 22:19:21
Optimistic kinda guy!

Where will he be moving to eds?


 

 

12 Jul 2019 22:30:28
Supporting this club is actual banter.

I don't care if we miss out on Saliba, I hadn't heard of him 5 minutes ago.

Give me a defence with Holding, Chambers and Sokratis, give me some youngsters like Nelson and Smith-Rowe and give me another golden boot for Auba or Laca.

We are where we are and it ain't going to change any time soon. May as well enjoy what we have and bring some youngsters through. I dare say there'd get more support in the stadium than a misfit bunch of no good signings due to our lack of funds.

5kywalker

1.) 12 Jul 2019 23:49:45
I make you right 5ky we'd all get behind a bright young future IF we had a bright young manager with BRIGHT new ideas.
Personally the win 5 3 philosophy makes my heart sink into dispare every time I think of it :- (
It's DOOMED It's doomed.


2.) 13 Jul 2019 07:47:56
Although we improved last season, compared to the previous season, the biggest disappointment was that we didn’t look particularly different than under Wenger. Perhaps this is because we only made 4 long term signings, so the players selected contained a majority of ‘Wenger’ trained players. This is why we must make at least 4 or 5 permanent signings this window, so the team becomes formed by Emery and his methods. This won’t happen overnight so we must be patient.


 

 

07 Jul 2019 17:01:14
Hi Ed's,

Am I right in thinking that Emery signed a 2 year initial contract with the option of a further year?

Do you know when a decision will likely be made as to whether or not this is renewed? Or if anything is going on behind closed doors with thinking about a replacement?

Ta.

5kywalker

{Ed002's Note - That is not how it is structured. It is a three year contract with both sides able to break away from the contract after two years.}


1.) 07 Jul 2019 19:33:59
Ed, just a prediction here, if Emery and Arsenal decide to break away, won’t arsenal be in the EXACT SAME MESS as when Wenger left? We will not have any potential replacement again unless you can correct me?

{Ed002's Note - Arsenal are not looking for a replacement - if he were to go they will opt for someone like Arteta. The problem is the management structure and a promise made to someone who is in the mix there. I am far from convinced about Emery - but there you go. Within two years they need to fix it or be staring up and West Ham and Wolves - perhaps even Everton.}


2.) 07 Jul 2019 20:37:38
It feels like they’re prepping Ljungberg for me, that is just my own personal feeling though, not a rumour.

Could he be a candidate?

{Ed002's Note - I don’t know.}


3.) 07 Jul 2019 21:07:10
Close your eyes, clear your heart. Cut the cord.

Time to make some big decisions - our club is a mess and quite embarrassing. We’ve stagnated and can’t seem to make a decision.


4.) 07 Jul 2019 21:58:26
No manager of proven substance would join Arsenal currently because things are in such a mess everywhere at the club, but desperation sometimes provides opportunities for less fashionable candidates with fresh ideas that can sometimes bring the ingredients needed to get things back on track.


5.) 08 Jul 2019 09:19:36
Desperation can go one of two way - self destruction or hunger for survival

Let’s see what we’re made of.

Hi Ed,

Is Rice our priority transfer for that position and do you know if he would be open to the move?

It seems like he was always either City or Chelsea bound.

Thanks as always and hope you’re all well.

5kywalker

{Ed002's Note - Rice would be the priority with Zubimendi an option.

Declan Rice (DM) There may remain interest from Manchester United but they signed Casemiro so their need is less now. The interest of Manchester City went with the signing of Kalvin Phillips although I would not totally discount them. Chelsea lost out on their preferred target last summer and the club is supportive of looking again to have Declan Rice return, something that I understand may be acceptable to the player, but I also understand they have a preferred choice. If Arsenal were to move Xhaka and Elneny on then they would have space in the squad, but they have have a preferred target. A wildcard would be Bayern Munich. West Ham will resist a move, but if the player were to push for it they would have to reconsider that position. The player has rejected offers to sign a new contract so the reality will bite this summer and West Ham have been looking at potential replacements. Will be significantly expensive.}

Slight difference between someone who is actively training with the first team and someone who retired 5 years ago.

Not saying we should sign Jack, but I also don’t understand such opposition. Of all managers, MA doesn’t seem in the slightest bit sentimental. He’s not going to pick him without it being warranted - and even Jack has said MA doesn’t want to sign him.

No need to get out of shape about a former player who just loves the club, and who the club are helping.

Bit harsh - he was a professional and did alright for us. Don’t understand people jumping on players just because they leave.

Martinez is no better or worse than Leno. If we’d sold Leno we would still have let in just as many goals and everyone would have been annoyed that we chose the wrong keeper. Both are average/ just above average. Wish people would stop saying Martinez is some kind of saviour - he isn’t.

Honestly Sy I have never heard someone talk so much nonsense and have such an over inflated opinion that they want the people to hear.

You say nothing positive, ever. Why even bother watching?!

Mikel has done a good job so far - I accept Monday was a bad game but against one of the best teams the league has seen in a long time.

He has changed us tactically and got more out of players than anyone expected. He does need a creative player to help generate more chances as Ozil is clearly not getting back in the squad any time soon, so if/ when that happens we will be better for it.

On behalf of everyone that reads this page, please stop posting your crap opinions as you sound deluded, or like you’re actually a Spurs fan just trying to bait people.

You’ve not said 1 positive thing about a midfield that won the FA Cup 6 weeks ago.

Yes we need reinforcements but you’re being idiotic in your cutting down of our players for no good reason.

Leno was talked about for player of the season last year and one difficult cross against West Ham and you’re having him out?

Short termism at its finest.

He is a quality goalkeeper - Bayern were linked with him whereas relegation battling clubs were linked with Martinez. For all the problems Man Utd and Chelsea are having in goal lately, if he was truly world class, they’d be knocking at the door as he also counts as a home grown player.

I love the bloke, massively respect his attitude and application, and also very happy how he went out on a high, but Leno is the better player.
