Looks like Edu could be on his way out of the club and Overmaars could replace him at last.

337

1.) 25 Aug 2021 05:12:09
Completely fabricated story from the gutter press I reckon, but it wouldn't be terrible. Edu has done fairly well this window with building a young core but the Willian deal and our inability to sell players for a reasonable sum hangs over the place like a bad smell.


 

 

24 Jan 2021 17:48:51
Odegaard deal confirmed on loan until the end of the season 😜.

337

1.) 25 Jan 2021 06:22:28
Not a bad move, need some back-up/ competition for ESR. He cannot be expected to play every game. Will probably take games from Willian which is no bad thing.
Loan move was only reasonable option in summer.

On top of loan of Mat Ryan and outgoings, not a bad window at all.


2.) 25 Jan 2021 17:00:17
Ed, curious why we didn't include an option to buy?

{Ed002's Note - It is not up to Arsenal to do that.}


3.) 25 Jan 2021 21:45:25
Read every where that Real will talk in the summer regarding Ødegaard and Ceballos with Arsenal.


 

 

22 Jan 2021 11:30:35
Matt Ryan has signed on loan until the end of the season from Brighton as GK cover, never heard of him tbh maybe the Ed’s can advise? Sounds like he has experience.

337

{Ed002's Note - RTP.}


1.) 22 Jan 2021 12:12:28
Yet you have heard of Odegaard and that signing makes perfect sense? Matt Ryan has been solid for Brighton and is a great loan signing for us. He is a shotstopper and very comfortable with the ball at his feet. I'm actually quite impressed that we made a sensible signing for once.


2.) 22 Jan 2021 13:13:57
Lot`s of Brighton fans down here my Son included are annoyed he`s not playing in the first team let alone being third choice. Great back up for Leno - seen him live a few time at Amex and never got the jitters. Only thing is he is quite short at 6 feet for a keeper. Good choice me thinks COYG.


3.) 22 Jan 2021 14:10:40
Try telling Peter shilton 6ft is short lol, he’ll still kick your backside at 71 🤣.


4.) 22 Jan 2021 16:07:55
We`ll get him to hang upside down as Shilton used to. What a keeper especially at Forest not so good v Poland COYG.


5.) 22 Jan 2021 19:57:22
Always thought Ospina looked short at just over 6ft.


 

 

20 Jan 2021 20:11:17
So odegaard rumours are hotting up, didn’t see that coming
Not seen much of him maybe the Ed’s could enlighten us about him?

337

{Ed002's Note - Martin Odegaard (RW/AM) Real Sociedad are keen on taking him on loan and have spoken with Real Madrid. His agent has said that he has had enquiries from two English sides. Why would Arsenal want another RW?}


1.) 20 Jan 2021 21:33:50
Is this the kid we were trying to sign b4 he went to Madrid.

{Ed002's Note - A number of clubs were very keen - in England Liverpool and Arsenal were keen.}


2.) 20 Jan 2021 21:34:29
Because the ones we have a not performing?


3.) 20 Jan 2021 22:02:42
Ed I haven’t seen him play but I thought he was originally a CAM? Similar to brandt in that they can both play wing as well? Correct me if I’m wrong though because I dunno.

{Ed002's Note - He is primarily a RW who can play as an AM.}


4.) 20 Jan 2021 22:09:19
Play Saka left, Odegaard right and ESR in middle with PEA up front or Martinelli or Laca.


5.) 21 Jan 2021 09:31:10
Players can change positions and it happens all the time. He doesn't have the pace to play on the wing especially in the Premier League. He has played a lot more of his football recently in the central role and at 22, he can definitely make that his preferred position.

Would I like him to do that at Arsenal though? I think it's a silly mistake if we sign he personally but I'm happy to eat my words. If we are going to push out ESR then Brandt is the one to do that IMO.


6.) 21 Jan 2021 12:11:46
Brandt is awful and I think that would be a mistake I think the sign this guy on loan and go all out for auora in the summer.

Please tell me that there is no substance in Balogun going to Spurs? I will actually buy a season ticket and burn it if there is any truth.

337

1.) 17 Aug 2023 23:27:49
Would you not sell to them under any circumstances? I get that if he does well for them it would be embarrassing at the least and that should be taken in to account, but say he wants to leave, no one else will pay over £40 mil and they offer £80 mil, do you think we should sell for £40 mil, just so he goes somewhere else? He could also flop and we've fleeced them.

Also I'm quite stupid, so I don't understand, can you explain what buying a season ticket and burning it achieves? If you've already paid for it will they care if you burn it?


2.) 18 Aug 2023 20:09:45
Lol, I don’t care where Balogun goes apart from to them and the season ticket statement would be solely to make me feel better ( honestly you will never understand what goes on in my head so just trust me) ?.

Evening all!
Have kept away for a while but feel the need to mention this, not arsenal related but needs a mention.
Absolutely disgusted to see yet another top footballer be charged with drink driving today!

These young men earn enough money in one week to employ a full time chauffeur for a year, let alone being able to pay for an Uber to anywhere on the planet. I really do feel the club or the FA should clamp down on them harder, ie make them donate a months wages to charity or something ?‍♂️ thoughts of a suitable punishment?

337

1.) 13 Jan 2023 03:11:10
Totally agree. Some of them are arrogant and entitled. Who was it? Did Antony get any punishment for driving while using a mobile phone to film himself?


2.) 13 Jan 2023 08:43:26
They are but have no education on money or expectations

Watch the J Lloyd Samuel documentary- money ruins people.


3.) 13 Jan 2023 09:32:03
Absolutely agree with everything said.
J Lloyd Samuel is a eye opening and very sad documentary.


4.) 13 Jan 2023 10:39:02
I want that much money to test the theory that money ruin people ???.
But on a serious note they need a reality check, I mean just look at balotili the guy set a firework I his bathroom for goodness sake.


 

 

23 Jul 2022 19:25:31
Really hope Zinchenko is a success, if not he’s never going to make it as a pop star ? check out Aaron Ramsdale socials lol. Good to see they seem to be enjoying their pre season.

337

1.) 25 Jul 2022 23:03:08
You've got to check pepe's reaction on his IG. Priceless.


 

 

27 Jan 2022 21:08:46
Omg G69!

Callum has gone, what will you do? Will you be a villa fan now?

An ode to Calum

I heard that you found a club and your playing now
Never mind, I'll find someone like you, I wish nothing but the best for you

Don't forget me I beg, but I remember you said
Sonemetimes it lasts in love and sometimes it hurts instead!

Better to have loved and lost than never had Calum at all., ?????.


2.) 27 Jan 2022 23:07:58
He had been here 8 years! Wow time goes too fast! It doesn't seem like that long ago. It does seem a bit odd to let him go for free in this off all seasons with all the injuries and C.V., he offered decent cover at cb/ rb and dm, not great but we could get desperate. Maybe that's the new plan, loan and let go everyone so games are easier to postpone ?.


3.) 28 Jan 2022 13:21:02
You have to think they are confident of people coming in Eden mate, otherwise letting AMN and the ever more Hansom Calum go seems reckless to say the best and at worst total incompetence.


 

 

31 Oct 2021 00:04:50
Cmon you lot, there were a good number of you slating the Ramsdale signing before he pulled on the shirt. I said I’d never seen a keeper with such sharp reactions and the ability to use his legs as well as his hands to stop shots, at least give a little “ hands up we were wrong “ you know who you are, we can all use the search function ?.

337

1.) 31 Oct 2021 06:51:04
I certainly didn’t understand the signing, not because of the ability or price tag but because we had a very good keeper in Martinez then sold him so the money could have been spent elsewhere, that was my only gripe . Ramsdale has started brilliantly and his kicking is incredible.

My biggest concern in the window was White as I thought 50 million is and was too much, currently I still don’t see much difference between him and Holding ………early days though and defences are judged on clean sheets .


2.) 31 Oct 2021 08:26:46
Hello 337 mate, I was one of the gobsmacked brigade when we bought him. didn't say he was a bad keeper but could not understand the rationale behind buying him, plus he had been relegated twice on the trott didn't exactly enlighten his cv.

He is proving a lot of people wrong me included and also a pat on the back for Arteta/ Edu for sticking their necks out and buying him.


3.) 31 Oct 2021 11:02:02
No one knew how Ramsdale and White were going to work out before they played for us, how could they?

It's always better to give any player 6 to 10 games before building them a statue or demanding the managers head for signing them.

But football is an emotional sport and people will always make emotional judgements such as with Elneny Mari and Perez when lots of fans called them fantastic Arsenal signings despite never actually having seen them kick a ball ?????.
it's always easier to remember other people's bad calls than it is our own, which we quickly forget and hope everyone else does too ???????.


4.) 31 Oct 2021 11:09:04
My concern was his ability to play out from the back but we seem to have ditched that a bit and he will lace the ball if in doubt. His reputation on playing from the back and Arteta’s desire to play from the back was my issue as made no sense. It was more a question mark over the recruitment than the player. We also kept the wrong keeper and sold a keeper who was vocal, commanded the box and could catch a ball. Leno could have been sold for a decent wedge while we sold Emi for 20m and replaced him with a disaster keeper for 1m. We then spent 30m on a keeper and 50m on a CD - I thought a misuse of money as we needed other players and could have kept Emi.
Rambo doing well
Ben - still question marks as weak in the air as shown at the free kick yesterday when he could not win a header and pushed a player over on the D. Resulting free kick led to save of the season but White’s attempt to win the header was a joke and that’s my concern with him - hopefully we develop that one area and he becomes a star. Nothing to do with price tag but more about having a CD that can do his main job - defending.


5.) 31 Oct 2021 12:03:48
Very good post SY

Totally agree.


6.) 31 Oct 2021 13:50:50
What was is past and ain't coming back and can't be rewritten no matter how we feel about it, positive or negative.

Ramsdale and Leno are what is and in reality are all that are really relevant to what will be.


7.) 31 Oct 2021 14:45:42
But a discussion worth having nonetheless eh? If we can discuss the past we would only post for the 90 minutes of a football match ?

And by the time it appears on here it would be history lol.


8.) 31 Oct 2021 18:20:27
Well said everyone nice to see we can all still get on lol
Not sure they’re such a happy family on the spuds page ??.


9.) 31 Oct 2021 18:43:17
Very true Banbury mate, the present is not always a source of good conversation so we all naturally drift back to the past and towards the future, there is nothing wrong with either, but for me personally I have no nostalgic longing to relive the rights and wrongs of Brexit all over again, it's done and dusted for me.
Now talk climate change or saving the Orangutan and other species from extinction where everything us still to play for and you've got my interest ????.


10.) 31 Oct 2021 20:22:16
True 62 but to change the future you need to look at the past to not repeat them and to measure the improvement otherwise we wouldn’t know how high sea levels have risen or it’s the warmest day or what industry has or has not improved. You need to have history to show the effects of doing nothing….


11.) 31 Oct 2021 21:55:43
I so agree SY and it was important for those who twigged on first to point out to the rest of us what was happening and where we had been and continue to go wrong.
Unfortunately there is no going back back and not doing what we've already done, for me it's all about accepting where we've gone wrong in the past, which I think 95% of people do now and concentrating on what can be done in the here and now and the future to give us our best chance of looking back in a few years time and saying, few that was close.

Sadly what's lost already is unfortunately lost but it's what can be saved that we've got to consecrate on.

Did hear that we were interested in him, and read that the press have seen that because they’ve shown an interest in Balogun and Tommy I think they’ve decided that’s a deal ?‍♂️, I’m not quite sure these “ swap” deals ever work as each individual player has a separate contract etc…. And of course all parties have to agree. I for one would be happy if there were any truth as both our boys unfortunately seem surplus to requirements.

Always good to swing by for a chuckle, great analogy’s! I remember someone made a prediction about a year ago about a certain manager needing time to put his stamp on this club, and we all chuckled ? some even said “Arteta out”, “ Ramsdale and white were a waste of money”, Arteta didn’t know what he was doing loaning saliba out”, “ Eddie N’ketiah was rubbish” oh and most importantly that “ Odegaard should go back to Spain and stay there”. Nice to see those same names commenting daily still!
On a serious note though G69 glad to see you’re here and all the EDs still doing a great job, especially ed14
Keep positive guys as we might even do OK some day ??.

Rant? It wasn’t actually aimed at your comments JE it was more at others, however now you’ve made it personal I’ll respond.
I’m actually sick of seeing people just constantly whinging and moaning with absolutely nothing positive to say about players who haven’t even signed yet. Do you think if they read these forums they would actually want to join now?
My point is you lot haven’t even given these young players a chance yet, but you know better than people that run a billion pound football club because you spent some pocket change on a season ticket and played FIFA a few times.
Just so you know my son is a professional footballer, he’s 18 and he is on his clubs page all the time, so maybe give these signings a chance before you lot write them off!

I will go missing now before I say something to some of you serial moaners that gets me banned, but I’ll be back to remind you all when any of our new signings show their potential and you lot change your tune 👀.

Jesus is not really a striker, when he plays he causes all sorts of problems for the opposition defenders leaving Martinelli and Saka to drift inside and their goal Talley to rise with him in the team, we play a different game with Jesus in the team.

Seriously SY? Those players were either all signed as squad players or at a reasonable fee to fill a gap and yet again you are slating some of them when they haven’t even had a chance to play! Cedric was signed as cover and had some really good games at right/ left back when called upon, Fabio viera and Tomi haven’t even had a chance to prove themselves as yet and tomi before he was injured had some excellent games.

Not just Ramsdale g69 others as well inc Odegaard!
Not quite sure why people still doubt the current transfer business but as they state “ our money” they must be major shareholders I guess ?‍♂️ I’m sure that most of the Man City fans from 20 years or more are also posting worried about how much their club are paying for players and wages when they have a full trophy cabinet.

Yeah nice post sharpie! But a bit over philosophical lol, my point was to have some trust in MA and his team, he must have seen something in Havertz like he did in Odegaard which many questioned.
And it’s also good to have your own opinion and to voice it when you feel appropriate, which is one of the purposes of this site. ??.
