Odegaard out for a minimum of 2 months, apparently. Time for the squad to step up ?.
1.) 19 Sep 2024 11:15:57
He will be missed there's no doubt HG.
29 May 2024 09:58:25
Hey ED002. Any truths in the Rashford links?
{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of any interest.}
1.) 30 May 2024 08:37:35
Why would Arsenal want to sign Rashford?
2.) 30 May 2024 14:43:51
Maybe because we are looking for a lw and a striker.
3.) 30 May 2024 21:27:40
I don't think we're looking at lw. Rw yes but not lw it's our only strong position. Trossard and martenelli.
4.) 01 Jun 2024 19:09:11
Please please no not Rashford.
08 Jun 2023 18:40:36
Rice and Caicedo to both join in the coming weeks apparently.
1.) 08 Jun 2023 20:25:10
I certainly hope so. Both the names have been mentioned so many times arteta n edu must be in there. It would be a big statement to get our first choice. Although knowing the club we probably bring in unheard of talent. Looking forward to new season.
2.) 08 Jun 2023 22:28:24
1 or the other for me can't see both happening if either of them come big clubs will be all over the 2 players mentioned above imo.
3.) 09 Jun 2023 01:07:25
Rice and Osimhen. Make it happen Edu!
Kokcu and Fresneda to round out the squad and a ton of sales to balance books.
4.) 09 Jun 2023 11:00:51
That would be unbelievable roge.

Great point made by a few people on here which I hadn't thought about- why didn't Kiwior play CByesterday and Timber at RB? Bizarre team selection.
1.) 19 Jan 2025 20:05:27
Hi glen hope alls well. and yes mate. it’s a good shout by you and others. I posted on here a couple of weeks ago saying sometimes Mikel try’s to be too cute with his selections. trying to fit square pegs in round holes, and round pegs in square holes and it just not working and being detrimental to the cause at times, just get back to basics. yesterday was an example of this kiwior could have played central defence with gabi, zini or kT slot in at left back and timber on the right. partey tries his best but he is definitely nowhere near as good played at right back. not really his as not his natural position. he totally switched off for a split second yesterday and it was 2 massive points dropped at home. if partey had been played in his natural position yesterday alongside rice and ode we may not have conceded either of them goals to villa. but we will never know now…the thing I am sure of is we still need a striker because we are still creating chances we should be putting away. but who is really gettable in this window…? … realistically who can we get this window because we need someone. ?⚪️❤️.
2.) 19 Jan 2025 21:00:32
He’s does make some weird decisions making defence and midfield weaker by playing people out of position without actually learning…, looks strange from the outside and raises questions about him that aren’t necessary.
3.) 20 Jan 2025 07:49:28
Great point. He does love over thinking things.
4.) 20 Jan 2025 09:06:12
I might be wrong but i don't think either gab or Kiwor like to play right sided CB, they are both very left footed.
5.) 20 Jan 2025 22:45:21
I’m sure Partey isn’t a right back, doesn’t think like a right back nor enjoys playing right back plus isn’t mobile enough to play right back. Worst choice out of a bad bunch of options. Despite Fulback being the bosses preferred signing over a striker… a CB should be able to play either side for the odd game. Despite all our defensive signings - we lack quality in cover which is on Arteta also.
6.) 21 Jan 2025 09:54:53
I think the lack quality in cover comment is a bit unfair, We have White, tommy and califori all out, who could have all played at RB or CB very comfortably and would have been close to our first choice.
I agree Partey is not a RB and other than the odd game has never really looked comfortable there, and i agree a CB should be able to player either side, my comment might have not been valid, it was just a thought as i have never seen either play on that side of the central defence.
We are down to our 4/ 5 choice at RB if timber has to play CB, not many teams will have great cover at that level. we have the best defence in the league for the last few seasons, the club and arteta have done very well in that department since Arteta took over.
04 Nov 2024 08:19:48
Edu is leaving apparently. Wonder what's happened there.
1.) 04 Nov 2024 09:22:44
Just seen it Glenn.
Tbh his recruitment policy concerning strikers has not been great imo.
Wasted transfer windows chasing Vlahovic/ Sesko when perhaps we should have gone after other options.
Then again what goes on behind the scenes concerning transfers stuff that we never hear about.
2.) 04 Nov 2024 09:24:10
Not good news at all. Rumours saying he's off to Forest.
3.) 04 Nov 2024 09:37:23
I reckon the BFG might get Edus job.
4.) 04 Nov 2024 10:06:16
Didn't see that coming!
5.) 04 Nov 2024 11:46:00
Highbury, don't even joke about that!
6.) 04 Nov 2024 15:43:57
Interesting news this, if its broken out now then it must have been going on in the background for a while, could this be the possible reason for the bad results on the pitch, for me this needs sorting pretty promptly.
BTW who is BFG.
7.) 04 Nov 2024 16:10:15
Not a chance this affects what's happening on the pitch. Why would it? It's not like he's the manager.
BFG = Big F'ing German (Per Mertesacker)
8.) 04 Nov 2024 17:54:30
If its happened suddenly I reckon it would unsettle Arteta Sharpie.
9.) 05 Nov 2024 06:34:02
Not sure why that would unsettle Arteta, Sally. I mean, they're just mates. Did City go off the rails when Arteta left? Nope.
10.) 05 Nov 2024 15:10:03
Fair point Sharpie, however a couple of months before the window opens might blow a blooming great hole in our ability to recruit successfully, if indeed that is what the plan is.
I reckon that might impact Arteta .
11.) 05 Nov 2024 19:36:49
He was the person that finalised the final deals with the players surely he would have a bond with the players and his vision would have been sold to the players when signing up. Now he is no longer there would surely impact the team. He may even try to tap some of our players over to Forest. ANy change at that level can huge impact on the teams mentality and they are a young bunch too. I hope they don't get ARteta to take control of Edus job too like they did to Wenger.
15 Oct 2024 20:30:36
Not sure how I feel about the England manager being German ?.
1.) 15 Oct 2024 21:25:04
Hi Glen when I read your post i immediately thought Jurgen and thought Brilliant, then took a look at bbc football page and felt ????. I personally couldn't care less if the England manager is German Greek or Ghanaian they would struggle to get me to watch England games outside the world cup or Euros tournaments every 2 years, but Jurgen being manager might just have changed my mind for me.
2.) 15 Oct 2024 22:16:34
It will be interesting if it's an England v Germany final!
3.) 15 Oct 2024 22:16:56
It’s embarrassing that we don’t have an English manager up to the task. Possibly Howe but the FA don’t want to pay the £5m compensation for him.
I do agree though gunner, Klopp would’ve been great.
4.) 16 Oct 2024 12:47:53
I am with John, I struggle to motivate myself to watch England games outside of WC and Euros.
As for Tuchel don't really have a opinion tbh but I do remember Wenger saying when he was being touted as a possible England manager, he said if England play France what national anthem do I sing.
5.) 16 Oct 2024 20:01:39
It's a dilemma Bill that's for sure, personally I'm just wondering how long it will be before people start reminiscing about the good old days when we played in world cup semi finals and Euro finals under Southgate ???, hopefully Tuchel will win things but he has a harder act to follow than anyone's had since Ramsey was sacked.
30 Aug 2024 20:06:25
PSR has made the transfer window bonkers! Love it- one of the best days of the year. Zero work has been done by me today. COYG!
23 Apr 2024 22:26:43
That clean sheet means Raya wins the Golden Glove ?.
1.) 23 Apr 2024 23:11:22
Congratulations to Raya and Arteta, personally I still feel Ramsdale would have done as well but it's getting more and more difficult to question Artetas decisions ????.
31 Jan 2025 19:02:10
Never heard of him. Does he play in the French league?
10 Jan 2025 17:00:22
I heard Edu was not best pleased with Arteta in the summer due to him holding the club ransom that he would only sign a new contract if they signed him Fury and Merino. Neither had been recommended by the scouting department.
01 Dec 2024 21:22:59
Gittens would be an incredible signing. Rapid, strong, direct and still raw with loads more potential.
21 Aug 2024 21:15:18
I think Jesus will be cover on the wing and we’ll bring a CF in.
28 Jul 2024 18:25:21
Wharton would be a great signing but I think Palace would want stupid money for him. I’ve seen Ruiz linked with us which could be a good signing.
12 Feb 2025 10:52:25
Dublin, you’re a plum. I’ve coached my son’s football team from a young age, and the taking part is the most important process for kids as they develop.
There’s also some less fortunate children with disabilities who should be involved and encouraged to play sport. In your world they shouldn’t play because it might mean the team loses?
12 Feb 2025 10:06:38
Khayon Edward’s or Nathan Butler-Oyedeji? Worth giving them a try although I think Trossard will start upfront if Havertz is out.
05 Feb 2025 22:23:48
I can’t believe Vodkamartenelli wants Spurs to win it!
01 Feb 2025 19:06:48
I personally think the bad decisions all get shared around.
Gakpo tripped himself up but you could see why the ref would give it, however VAR should have overturned it.
01 Feb 2025 17:59:28
Another shocker from VAR on their pen though.
