Ornstein reporting that Billy Boy has signed contract extension ???.
26 Aug 2025 07:58:24
Ornstein reporting that Hincapie the Leverkausen defender in talks with us after first looking to sign for Spurs.
Poor old Spuds, binned off again??.
22 Jul 2025 12:15:01
Fabrizio saying Gyokeres is almost done.
1.) 22 Jul 2025 14:54:33
He's announced a here we go. Partial medical already completed.
16 Jul 2025 16:48:44
Chelsea trying to hijack Eze transfer according to reports.
1.) 17 Jul 2025 20:42:47
He's an Arsenal fan and a smart man, so Chelski will fail.
13 Jul 2025 23:14:33
Zuba, kepa, Noorgard, Noni, Gyo done.
hopefully the Spanish defender then Eze.
Icing on the cake Nwaneri signing a new deal.
hopefully all of the above on the preseason tour which starts Wednesday week.
Some departures already and i would think more to come.
So there we have it.
64,000$ question
Whats the expection Gooners, what's the bottom line.
1.) 14 Jul 2025 00:04:56
My expectation is more attacking play and more goals.
Proper competing for title to the last week with a belief we can actually win it.
I don’t mean 2nd like the last 3 years but actually believing we could win this right till the end.
So - Top 2 and a trophy.
2.) 14 Jul 2025 07:38:57
Always negative sy, no matter what! If we signed Messi and Ronaldo in there prime you would have something to moan about.
3.) 14 Jul 2025 08:40:17
Sorry but what’s negative about thst expectation - top 2 and a trophy?
My expectations are high due to the window and past few years.
4.) 14 Jul 2025 15:50:51
Agree with sy4 here. Next season we surely have to play attacking football. Some of our football last season was shocking.
5.) 14 Jul 2025 19:34:57
I wasn’t on about attacking football part, I’m on about the way he was referring too not challenging for the title which is bs in my eyes, it’s every post and it’s not just me that’s noticing it, like I said apply for a job on aftv you’ll fit in great there.
6.) 14 Jul 2025 21:07:12
There is supposedly one further signing between A Gordon, R Leao or Rodrygo dependent on Martinelli or Trossard exiting.
7.) 14 Jul 2025 21:43:14
One of my favourite players from yesteryear and a lovely guy - Sammy Nelson. Keep your shorts up ?
That’s exciting and at the risk of sounding negative, despite Dublin saying a similar thing, that would complete our window and make it an excellent one. It can’t be excellent without addressing the lw hole esp when buying Noni. That would be pretty awesome but also what was required if we are real.
Fingers crossed
So did you think we would win those prior 3 seasons Dublin. Coming second is not competing if it’s over come Jan or March. Not in a competitive world anyway. May be for you and hence I clarified exactly what I meant by top 2. Not negative but clearly communicating and truthful. You could argue the year before but did you really think we were going to win it?
8.) 14 Jul 2025 22:00:59
Really hope not Gordon.
9.) 15 Jul 2025 08:24:52
I was at the game when Sammy dropped his shorts in the east upper
Great memory.

Just seen a quote on BBC Football that if we had kept Emery we would have won the Prem by now.
I am going to have a lay down in a darkened room.
1.) 06 Dec 2025 16:53:11
Hi Bill mate,
We’ll never know what could have been, I also felt at that time Emery should have got more time. Anyway, we have a good manager and are in good position.
It is critical time for us now and we need to respond strongly, last few games, we have dropped slightly, especially defensively.
The injuries are impacting as well but this is our test now and I hope we stay ahead of the pack. If we drop from the top by Christmas it may be very difficult to win from there.
2.) 06 Dec 2025 18:23:59
If Emery had gone from PSG to Saville then Arsenal then possibly that might be true but directly replacing Arsene was the wrong decision for him as a personality at that time.
I think he learned a lot about himself from his mistakes with us and became a better manager because of the lessons he learned about himself.
05 Dec 2025 18:21:04
Mosquera out for 6 weeks, that's a big loss but we can cope.
Away to The Villa tomorrow, been our bogey side of recent seasons, time to put that right
Take care everyone
COYG.
30 Nov 2025 18:36:21
Hard earned point Without our 2 cbs but Mosquera and Hincapie were magnificent
IF we said at the beginning of the week we will beat Spurs and Bayern at home and draw away to Chelsea I would have took that.
Onwards Gooners onwards
Next up Brentford
Take care everyone ?❤️.
1.) 30 Nov 2025 18:31:50
Good post Bill, we are being a little spoilt lately mate and anything but a win feels a little disappointing no matter who we are playing or whoever we have missing. The days we went to Chelsea City Liverpool United and celebrated getting a point like we'd won a cup seem a long time ago now ?, definitely becoming a little spoilt ???.
2.) 30 Nov 2025 19:31:11
Yes, expectations are very different these days and credit to the team and manager for spoiling us :) )
03 Nov 2025 20:20:44
Gyokeres got muscular injury. Mike not putting timeliness on return??.
1.) 03 Nov 2025 21:27:24
He should never have gone to that seafood disco.
03 Nov 2025 17:29:24
The website up your arsenal found a pundit had said this.
Gyokeres 63.5 million
6 goals scored
Arsenal in 1st place
Pundit - he just needs to score more goals, it's as simple as that, there's no excuses.
Isak 125 million
No goals scored
Liverpool in 3rd place.
Pundit-we need to give him time to adjust to the league
Leave you to draw your own conclusions fellow Gooners
Stay safe all of you?❤️.
1.) 03 Nov 2025 21:33:08
Clearly that pundit is a very bitter ? Bill mate.
27 Jul 2025 10:21:01
I agree with Mal on the tea lady but instead of 3 more signings a reduction in the £8 a pint you are charged inside the stadium.
22 Jul 2025 10:59:27
I am this sort of stuff goes on all the time. You could argue that Gyokeres has shat on Sporting not honouring his contract.
16 Jul 2025 14:52:25
What let's him down Mal mate, is his final ball.
15 Jul 2025 17:34:12
Tbh Sally i think martinelli is the only one who we would get serious money for.
Just seen arteta's press conference where he was asked about Rodrygo, he ddnt comment on Rodrygo, s transfer itself but said we have come to the stage where only winning trophies is good enough.
13 Jul 2025 18:59:11
Fabrizio saying the Gyokeres is very close to completion.
06 Dec 2025 14:28:37
First lost since the end of August, John mate
2 first cbs out against the inform team. Hard lost to take but we are still top no matter what happens today. Hopefully our bad luck with injuries will change soon.
Take care John mate.
06 Dec 2025 13:53:56
Hello Gabi mate, hope you are all well.
It was a hard lost to take mate, but with both our 2our first choice c/bs missing we paid the price. Villa seem to have the bogey on us.
But still top after some really tough games since international break, but we look very tired.
As you say one game at a time.
Would have like to seen Norgaard have a chance in the next couple of games.
Big take away for me was we can't play Ode and Eze together, we look disjointed. No disrespect to Club Bruges or Wolves but we should not have a problem beating them.
Take care Gabi mate.
30 Nov 2025 13:10:46
I fancy us to get the win. Draw is not a disaster
Then hopefully 3pts in the week against Brentford then another 3 against our bogey side Villa.
IF we can do that then it really is ours to lose
Mal, hope you are feeling better mate and John and Sussex enjoy your Sunday
COYG.
29 Nov 2025 10:27:55
Absolutely Gabi mate

Good morning Ed and John, an awesome performance, the second half Wow! . the icing on the cake was our youth team who beat Bayern youth.
Max Dowmans goal, had a touch of Dennis about it,
The future is looking very very good.
Take care both of you.
{Ed025's Note - yeah Bill a great time to be a Gooner mate, you have to keep it going now mate and it could be a historic season...heres hoping..
