18/21 (plus a win for the kids vs PSV) and I'd be happy. I fear Brighton (H) more than Liverpool (A) because we've been shit vs Brighton at home in recent years.

Can someone network minded confirm I'm getting this on Paramount plus because of the way the university wifi is set up? I don't have VPN turned on

I’m super happy for Havertz he’s finally got the reward for the good movement he’s shown this season in the final third and his overall performance yesterday was better but I still think there’s a massive issue as a midfielder with him. He’s just not comfortable on the ball in tight areas or on the turn in midfield areas it was better when he played on the right side but I still think it’s gonna be a problem for us at times. Odegaard dropped deeper more in build up yesterday I thing which helped maybe that’ll continue.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

He needs to improve on the turn and he probably will, most of our players have. The tight spaces thing he's fine, he's better than Xhaka ever was and he's showing a bit more. His team role shouldn't necessitate tight space dribbling.

Completely skipped my attention but Kolasinac now plays for Atalanta??

Kai Havertz took on a man on the touchline and beat him. It still feels like a mirage.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Seems Havertz is always free when he makes those back post runs.

trying to imagine how arteta and mbappe would work together if we were ever to pursue it and somehow get it over the line lol

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Hypothetical scenario:

  1. You can keep our current roster for the next three years with guarantee no one will miss a single game due to injury. Caveat: no Partey, all players age and progress naturally but Jorginho who is frozen at current level.
  2. Regular situation related to injuries and our transfer budget is $80M a year + what we can sell.

Which would you take? I take #1. I love this team.

Chuba Akpom being 28 does not sit right with me

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

The manager of Arsenal being younger than me doesn't sit with me either but sadly time waits for no man/woman

Aubade hattrick against ajax, puts a smile on my face.

Knocked those bums out of the europa league

Strikers better than Gabriel Jesus:

• Harry Kane

• Erling Haaland

• Victor Osimhen (?)

that's it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Napoli, Inter, Sociedad, Atletico, PSG, Milan, Leipzig are probably the toughest teams we can get in the next round.

Which teams would you guys want to avoid from the above?

United sniffing round Nketiah. I really need this deal to not happen. My heart couldn't take it

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Random thought but with Leno, Martinez, Turner and Fabianski still kicking about the league if we hypothetically sold Ramsdale to another Prem team has there ever been any position where you can think of where so many teams had first choice players all bought from the same club?

I mean Turner and Fabianski don't always start but four starting players all being ex arsenal is mad.

The closest I can think for us was a brief period where Ian Wright, John Hartson, Andy Cole (pushing it) and Kevin Campbell were all starting for West Ham, Man U and Everton respectively

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Since Fabianski didn't go directly from us to West Ham that opens it up somewhat. You could say Havertz, KdB, Mount, Gilmour, and Barkley for former Chelsea CMs? Not sure how much they're all considered first choice, or the same position (and if you really want to stretch things I guess you could include Rice too)

Sheffield United paid the woman 5k a year and then made a 10k tribute after she died. Maybe, i don't know, should have properly paid your women's team? If you can't afford to have a women's team, don't have it, otherwise you are just putting those girls under immense pressure to perform and put their bodies through it all while being paid minimum wage.

pre season 24/25

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

he'll get a light runout in our final three league games after we win the league at shite hart lane

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

March next year. Does look like he will be running on the pitch soon, according to the latest photos. But it will take time to get back into full fitness.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Ordered the Ian Wright Pre-match Jersey

Urgh Adidas you fuckers

Some Man United fans are talking about the possibility of going for Ramsdale in January/ Summer.

I would be so upset if he went there, but at the same time he deserves to go to a big team.*🥲

*yeah I know, I know, but Man United are still a big club lol

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'm not sure he'd want to go into another club where he's not #1 or clearly #1. United don't have the money to completely give up on Onana. If we are to sell him, there's a few clubs I wouldn't mind seeing him going to, if he goes to a rival like Chelsea/United it would be harder to wish him success.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Sadly we've got the standard premier league issue of taking the most money or avoiding strengthening rivals.

If we're to get vaguely what he cost it will have to be a premier league move sadly.

Seems like Aouar is behaving badly at Rome. It‘s inaane how many players with bad attitude we dodged under Arteta

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

he has fallen off the map completely. also think that playing alongside guimaraes, paqueta and caqueret was making him look a lot better than he actually is.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

arteta always seems to follow up on former links like jorginho, odegaard, raya, apparently douglas luiz. when he wants a man permanently he can drop it for a while but down the road he makes it work if the profile is irresistible. always found it notable then when a link goes completely cold like aouar
