Hi Eds, Eze has been linked with Man U and Spurs, surely if he is moving then we should be going in for him or is he not a target for us?
{Ed014's Note - Rodrygo is the only winger I’ve seen us linked with so wouldn’t know about Eze.
It would seem strange for him to take a step down and join the Spuds or that Manc 5h1te. ?♂️

Thanks Ed, same thoughts regarding him taking a step down by going to either. It will be good for us to get one of Rodrygo, Eze or Gordon. Can take a punt on Grealish with loan.

Flirt with the prettiest girl at the disco and leave empty handed or with a tramp. Great.
We need to be more strategic and deliver - who cares about the fish we wanted to catch. 3 years later and we are still chasing the dream.
If we win trophies - it would be easier.

Hi Eds, do you know if we have had any serious discussions with our primary targets and their clubs? It is very early days and transfers are complicated process but I am fearing the usual hesitancy in our approach. It will be disheartening if good players are snapped up and we keep faffing around.
{Ed001's Note - yes, I believe you are trying to sort out at least a couple of signings in this initial window. It is a different year for PSR purposes than the second window, so getting them done now will get them off the books earlier in the future.}

Thanks Ed.
{Ed001's Note - very welcome mate.}

Hi Eds, do you have any latest on which wingers we are looking at if any? I would have liked Eze or Gordan, but with Palace in Europa and Newcastle in the CL, they look unlikely. We missed out on Marmoush and will have to compete with many clubs for Nico Williams. We need someone who can hit the ground running and preferably with premier league experience.
{Ed001's Note - Rafael Leao and Gittens seem to be the main two targets.}
1.) 26 May 2025 13:36:53
Thanks Ed, Leao is a good player but hasn’t lived up to the hype, Gittens also is one for the future but any additional depth to the squad will be welcome.
2.) 29 May 2025 02:26:39
I would be chuffed with Gittens, 20 y/ o with 8 goals and 3 assists for BvB? Sign me up. Williams would be the premium target but doubt we'd pay the asking price.

We are in the second half of the season and I think our tired mentality was on show today. Against a bottom team we had to go all out and finish the game off in the first half. Like someone said, with the incentive to put 9 points lead over the rest of the pack, we had to be on our A game. If Villa win tomorrow the gap is 4 points and having played both our games with them, it will not be in our hands if Villa keep on our toes. Gyokores is not a league winning striker but we are not even trying to get him in the game, we rely on wingers and Gabriel to score goals.
Odegard is getting back in form but we should rotate alternatively with him and Eze. Martinelli is also inconsistent and he had to score today when he had the chance, he should have scored two. I am fairly confident we can do it but the team and Arteta’s inexperience to handle the pressure and get the job done may affect us in the run in…again! Hence, even though we earned a point away from home, my excitement from today’s other results has been dampened by our draw.

Hushhh…!

Hope everybody had a good Christmas!
As pointed out by some here, we aren’t involving Gyokeres as much as we should, he takes up some good positions but the ball isn’t passed to him, especially when Saka has the ball. Saka will always go for goal himself but there were at least two situations today where he could have squared the ball to Gyokeres.
And we have again got into the habit of putting ourselves in pressure situations with the defensive lapses. Hope we iron out these issues for the business end.

He is a championship striker! Today he was gifted a golden chance early in the game and calmly passed it straight into the goalkeepers gloves! On the other hand what a worldie save from raya.

Hi Bill, had a lovely Christmas thank you mate and hope you did too.
The raw data tells me we got 3 pts today and we are top of the Premier and Champions leagues.
I'm very happy to go with the raw data rather than delve into and analyse it all on the grounds I'm not at all confident I will come out of it all as happy as went into it. Apparently Ignorance is bliss so i'm going to give it a go ????

All strikers miss chances, imo he had a good game today created space for him self and was strong to hold off defenders. We should have won the game more comfortably but delighted and happy with the win and happy with the players effort, and I'm continuing enjoying my week.

Hi Eds,
It’s gone very quiet on the Man City charges, do you have any idea on what’s happening on that front?
Thanks.
{Ed001's Note - just waiting on them to give the written report and judgement.}

Absolutely buzzing! Onwards and upwards, COYG!

Fantastic result and performance ????.
01 Jul 2025 18:18:41
I think we will get Eze, Rodrygo and Sesko.

There is a rumour around MLS being tracked by Real Madrid. Nwaneri will also be looking for assurances on more game time. However, we must extend their contracts and my be give them an option to review next year.
26 May 2025 13:36:53
Thanks Ed, Leao is a good player but hasn’t lived up to the hype, Gittens also is one for the future but any additional depth to the squad will be welcome.

Absolutely Sally, was going to wrote the same. The powers are trying everything to help us, we should do our part and make it easy especially for us fans!
18 Jan 2026 17:07:21
I guess we all are happy with our current position, our view is if we are the team who are going to win the league then we should play like one. With the team that we have, yesterday’s effort was way below par and as their is a long way to go and our history we would like us to shore up the advantage when we get a chance.

Hi Gabi,
It wasn’t a great game and we were not up to the pace. I was afraid that the narrative to the build up of this game “Liverpool are there for the taking” will impact our performance and that’s what happened, they are a good team and wasn’t going to be as easy as everyone was talking about, including the pundits.
However, a point against Liverpool is a good point, it could have been worse, I was terrified when Szoboszlai lined up for those two free-kicks! We need to rest and get back on the pitch to win the next game, the margins are very tight but we will do it this time.
30 Dec 2025 23:08:37
Absolutely Moe, everyone in the team were more than 8 on 10. This shows what the team are capable of, let this continue till May. I will be much relaxed watching the games from here on.
Happy new year to All.
30 Dec 2025 21:55:00
We are doing better Gabi!
