Raheem Sterling at Colney having a medical apparently.
1.) 30 Aug 2024 23:36:24
Superb signing. No fee and no obligation to buy. Only paying half his wages. Great deal.
2.) 30 Aug 2024 23:39:05
Great bit of business, usually we get bent over but i'm liking this new Arsenal.
3.) 31 Aug 2024 00:01:01
Seems like a very good deal, still think we're a bit short if injuries crop up, but fingers crossed.
Chelsea are weird, ship out Sterling just to sign Sancho.
4.) 31 Aug 2024 00:17:07
Done deal according to Chelski Website.
5.) 31 Aug 2024 01:14:15
As I mentioned before, I would have been upset if we had paid a big transfer fee for him or paid his massive wages. This, though, is very canny. Excellent work by the club.
26 Jul 2023 07:25:02
8m Euro for Bitello from Gremio is being reported. Apparently will be wrapped up this week. Never heard of him but I imagine Edu has talent scouts all over Brazillian football.
1.) 26 Jul 2023 13:03:33
I think ed002 said he wouldn't be eligible for a work permit. Has that changed, or will he be loaned out?
{Ed002's Note - Arsenal would either need to pay way over the odds, loan him out or apply for an exception to the Work Permit.}
2.) 26 Jul 2023 13:11:18
Thanks ed, so does transfer price have a bearing on obtaining a permit?
{Ed002's Note - And wages, both as a percentile.}
3.) 26 Jul 2023 13:20:38
Thanks.
4.) 26 Jul 2023 14:32:03
Didnt we do something similar with Martinelli [ not vodka ].
5.) 27 Jul 2023 00:29:09
Sparky I believe Gabi has an Italian passport and as such was exempt from the requirements.
15 Jul 2023 20:33:57
Apparently Edu isn't finished. Looking at Moussa Diaby!
1.) 15 Jul 2023 21:17:44
Is he any good sparky?
2.) 15 Jul 2023 21:52:51
Mal he’s small but like lightening, will be a good addition.
3.) 15 Jul 2023 22:22:56
as vodka said mate, rapid and very good.
4.) 15 Jul 2023 22:58:56
Thanks lads.
5.) 15 Jul 2023 23:44:14
Edoo2 do we have any interest in moussa Diaby?
{Ed002's Note - Moussa Diaby (LW/RW) Bayer Leverkusen were approached about the player by Borussia Dortmund last season but no more than that. They have no interest in selling unless a very significant offer of something like €70M were made and have rejected a significant offer from Aston Villa, who may return with another. Bayern Munich, Arsenal and Real Madrid have sent scouts but each think the asking price too high. Was due to be replaced by Mykhaylo Mudryk last summer, but that never happened. Arsenal remain keen. A wildcard option may be a return to PSG. Newcastle are very interested but a move there would be a regression and I am sure being in the Champions League would be a consideration. Manchester United offer another wildcard solution. ASton Villa face an uphill battle to convince the player, but will keen trying.}
6.) 16 Jul 2023 02:58:02
Any legs to this rumour (Moussa Diaby) , Ed002?
I checked and you mentioned interest in January, and the possibility of his summer availability.

I think Michael Olise from Palace wouldn’t be a bad call as a Saka cover tbh.
8.) 18 Jul 2023 16:43:27
Or the kid from Brighton thinks he’s Japanese, I think he would have been a better option than trossard, I’m not see all the fuss with trossard especially people saying he should start over gabs wasn’t he our top goal scorer?
{Ed077's Note - not only does Mitoma think he is Japanese but he's also actually Japanese ;-P}
9.) 18 Jul 2023 21:42:40
Ed 77 have you ever thought of being a comedian lol my bad spell check or the 11 pints in Cyprus to blame.
{Ed077's Note - here come the excuses?...}
15 Jul 2023 13:13:27
Declan Rice at Arsenal finalising the transfer, welcome to the mighty Arsenal Declan Rice.
COYG.
28 Jun 2023 16:48:05
Fabrizio Romano saying Rice deal is done, just finalising last details.
1.) 28 Jun 2023 19:40:47
Huge signing!
{Ed014's Note - have we signed Tielemens?
2.) 28 Jun 2023 19:58:08
Haha Ed! Thankfully we moved on to better things than that fat lad.
Where do you rank the Rice signing in the biggest signings in the clubs recent history? Must be up there with Campbell, Bergkamp, Ozil and Sanchez.
{Ed014's Note - thank god ?
If it really does happen then of course it will be huge mate and with the bulk of the team being the right age it could be the biggest in terms of what they could go on to achieve.
Want to see him in the shirt first though.
3.) 28 Jun 2023 20:27:39
Massive signing when it happens! Still fat shaming Ed but Maddison to Spuds a win win eh? COYG Havertz Rice Tiiiimberrrrrr and Lavia - we couldn`t could we?
{Ed014's Note - ?? it was a double whammy for me today with him and Maddison moving elsewhere.
It would be a pretty impressive window that’s for sure mate.
4.) 28 Jun 2023 20:33:14
WHU want 100,000,000 over 18 months plus 5m add ons.
{Ed014's Note - not sure about the 5 mil add on’s sparky, what for? ?
5.) 28 Jun 2023 20:54:29
Come on 14, didn't you hear "Man City don't want to be in a bidding war with Arsenal" ?
Think we'll have a massive influence.
Arteta Build Back Arsenal!
{Ed014's Note - who said that, I don’t believe a word of it! ?

After the Ex Spuds midfielder Jamie "who? " O'hara predicted we would be torn a new one last week, he actually made me laugh this morning.
"Daniel Levy has built this big shiny stadium and it's only enjoyable to go to when Beyonce's on! ".
1.) 16 Sep 2024 15:32:49
Total sh*te talker. It's never enjoyable.
2.) 17 Sep 2024 08:01:00
Lovely stadium, shame it was built in a ghetto.
{Ed014's Note - I love the fact it’s been christened Three Point Lane! ??
3.) 17 Sep 2024 08:39:02
Hah just seen that online.
4.) 17 Sep 2024 08:47:22
Always been No Heart Lane to me the muppets COYG.
5.) 17 Sep 2024 08:40:06
Ed also seen arsenal have 3 stadiums in north London.
{Ed014's Note - ?? to be fair the spuds don’t really need one anyway!
6.) 17 Sep 2024 10:56:37
Aye Mal, I heard the one, "Arsenal are the only club in the world with 2 stadiums. The Emirates for matches, and the Spurs stadium for training".
Not going to lie, I'm extra buzzing after that game. Before the international break, I was sure we'd spank them. After, with Ode out, I wasn't sure. Silly me!
#COYG.
7.) 17 Sep 2024 11:16:32
I was never in doubt sharpie
For me we have the best young manager in world football
Not only plays exciting football but when we need to grind out a result with half the midfield missing
Looking good mate
Ps_ you’re the messiah now you’re half time ritual did the job again.
8.) 17 Sep 2024 15:00:30
Nowt to do with me mate; the leaves do the work ?.
07 Aug 2024 19:08:05
3-0 in the 1st half, better not score any more or we will never get a striker, playing well though!
1.) 07 Aug 2024 19:36:37
Hey mark any standout players?
2.) 07 Aug 2024 19:48:35
4-1 win and no injuries so good night all round.
3.) 07 Aug 2024 20:18:52
Hey Mark you good?
Saka outstanding as always, Lewis Skelly looks like he has a lot of potential and Nwaneri looked like he had been playing in the 1st team for years. Overall a good performance mate.
4.) 07 Aug 2024 20:47:59
Do we really need a striker? #itsonlybanter COYG.
5.) 07 Aug 2024 21:32:44
Hey mark mate, all good here, I’d say your busy at work
Can’t wait for season to start.
19 May 2024 18:06:12
Watching the match on a crap connection back from Edinburgh, proud of the team and the future is looking bright.
{Ed014's Note - very bright mate and hopefully the FA will get their act together and come down hard on the cheats.
The Lance Armstrong of the football world.
1.) 19 May 2024 18:22:58
Hey! Stop dissing our connections. I'm not having that!
{Ed014's Note - it’s 2024 mate you need to get with the times up there! ?
2.) 19 May 2024 19:03:54
14, turn off your betamax when you speak to me!
{Ed014's Note - ??
3.) 20 May 2024 18:22:17
only thing slower is the time it takes you to get into chat Sharpie :oP.
08 May 2024 22:05:23
Another season gone without a trophy, the Kane Curse lol.
24 Apr 2024 05:28:47
Fantastic performance aside, just found out that VAR did indeed look at Jackson's challenge on Tommy and saw nothing wrong with it. If that clownshow isn't kicked out of the nearest window soon it will make the league a laughing stock.
1.) 24 Apr 2024 14:28:31
Playing devil`s advocate sparky they probably looked at it and deemed it a yellow card so couldn`t intervene. This means Jackson got away completely which is madness. This rule needs changing. On another day a straight red. It`s not corruption it`s incompetence COYG.
31 Aug 2024 00:17:07
Done deal according to Chelski Website.

I promise not to mention it much more if Mal agrees Martelli is awesome.
29 Sep 2024 16:23:07
Wish the rest of him would follow.
{Ed014's Note - hi mate, he’s defo not getting in the team as soon as Merino is up and running.
He gave a simple ball away yesterday that led to their first goal when he had so many options. He sadly keeps doing it.
I was really hoping he’d come into some kind of form but it’s not happening.
Arteta has said Merino has started training and is desperate to start playing so hopefully we’ll see him after the international break.
That aside hope alls good with you. ??
24 Sep 2024 19:02:14
Remind me of spoilt kids, when it all comes crashing down they will all be off and hopefully their new team mates remember what total tools they are.
23 Sep 2024 19:20:00
Rodri possibly out for the season but targeting a return against Wigan in league 1 :)
