failing Big time.
Good players full everywhere, all the scouts just needs is to get to work early before transfer window opens and work on getting a very good player.

Arsenal needs striker and good DM. Scouts by at least December suppose don get someone ready that they feel have all the attributes of what Arteta needs and can easily blend in with all the analytical tools and data they have on the said player.
See how Liverpool swiftly got Diaz and minanino without no aproko eyes from different clubs. Their scouts and those involved don already work on those boys before even the Jan transfer window. But us it seems na when transfer window dey open na that time we wan start work
Liverpool show interest in a player and 2 days later they officially sign him meanwhile Arsenal football club Monitor, show Interest, Plan, Follow, Search, Discuss, Consider,close in, advanced talks, growing increasingly confident, Study, Push on a single player for 7 years before signing him.

To worse it off, some fans would come and justify that process.
Only for season to start and start seeing some low-key talents around.

Thing is even if the dust settles, will there be quality enough for us? I'm not sure and I don't think Jesus will be available if he prefers UCL clubs to us

[/b]For we to excel in this transfer window, we should cast our nets on the Tomi of this world. Players who are hungry to go to top clubs from other leagues, relatively unknown and are very very good. Such players also should be able to enter into the first team or fight to enter the first team.
They abound everywhere, Liverpool are very good at that.[b]


If we can work on that, we won't be thinking much about this player rejecting us and that player rejecting us
� 100% my long time view.

When the season starts, you'll see this low-key talented hard working playing players around. Only to start wondering how Arsenal can't see this.
The scouting team are also failing at their duties.

Sometimes we can only wonder why Arsenal as a club remains struggling to get back to the apex of footballing heights. Manchester City already won the league and imho are even almost done with their transfer business and will soon focus on pre-season plans in a bid to ensure continuity of success. Even spurs are showing serious signs by tying down conte and wasting no time to approve funds for his transfer plans which they have already begun and finalized some deals.

Alas , Arsenal albeit given the circumstances managed to finish fifth are still dilly dallying in transfer plans. We have yet to even nail down any prospect amidst uncertainty of funds at hand or not. This leaves little or less to be desired and one can not be optimistic going into the new season even though as fans our hearts want to believe.

Sometimes you wonder if truly the people at the helm want this club to move forward. Serious clubs after a disappointing campaign immediately move to correct their errors and ensure success in the forthcoming season depending on the targets set.

But I'm just struggling to see any signs to see that seriousness at arsenal right now. We have not even come down to technical and tactical improvement on the pitch which is still clearly lacking.

Phew!!!! Hope it's not another long season all over again.
This is what I foresaw and said here on last match day.
That Arsenal will frustrate the fans in the Transfer Window...
At the end they will bring in a fanciful player to appease the fans... the truth many won't like is,Utd and Chelsea would eventually spend and strengthe their teams.
They'll keep spending and getting active till they get it right.

The problem is that people don’t think of future but like everything now. I am one person that always believes in giving a young footballer a chance especially if the talent is there.

All the things that seemed difficult to McTominay for instance appeared to come so easily to Guen whenever I watched him, and those things are the basics of playing CM.
Knowing where to move to to receive the ball, ability to receive the ball on the half turn, passing the ball to your full back just in front of him so he takes it in his stride rather than passing it straight to his feet.

[/b]The mistakes he made like romancing the ball too much like breast, petulant fouls, poor defensive positioning were errors that he was bound to eliminate or reduce from his game with increasing experience.[b]

But I watched him only occasionally and had to conclude that those who watched him regularly had more data on him. The truth is that the guy is still going to keep getting better for the next 3-4 years unless he has bad luck with injuries or his attitude is off like Adrien Rabiot.
grin
Honestly, with the right coaching team and good footballing environment, players do develop and get away with those errors..

I was reading how old was Mbappe when he started giving in A performance. They don't know not all young players hit it big in their teenage years, some develop and become very good.

You know the funny thing
Even Dino had a great season too, the way we are going arteta will be the death of arsenal
I have been saying it that Dino and saliba could serve a replacement to the likes of mustafi instead Baba blew money on gabu and white
I aligned with this thought too, The Money spent on White is just damn too much.. A good coach would have turned Dino and Saliba to a Gem.. White is good but not super exceptional talent that will improve a whole team like V.dijk.
I could still agree Arsenal needed Gabriel.

Lol this case dey pitiful. I almost went to buy spectacles to improve my eyesight after seeing the way people attacked the boy when he was in the EPL.
Looked like a can’t miss talent to me that just needed time to mature and a bit of luck but people that watched him on a daily basis said he was no good.
I don’t see why he would want to come back. Chance of making the World Cup squad and also Arsenal fans weren’t too kind to him.
A united fan once said here that time " You'll think Guendozi is a terrible player if you don't watch football". This was after reading several posts here on how that boy is the reason everything went bad for Arsenal.

Infact you dare not praise or say anything positive about him else, you'll be receive loads of back lash.
You priase him they will twist things and say you're calling him the next Iniesta,Pirlo and Cesc.

My position is not new about our coaching but right now, Arteta should be allowed to get the players he wants.

I don’t think Arteta can manage Guen, we know his disposition about certain type of players. There is no need trying to bring Guen back only to end up on the bench or banished from the first team because he is opinionated.

[/b]You have to understand that Guen has a lot of things going for him right now. He is making the Les Bleus national team and if he continues will be at the World Cup. He is going to play in the UCL next season, which means more exposure. He is playing in his homeland and is very comfortable with his manager, J. Sampaoli who has helped Guen mature and get better in expressing himself on and off the pitch.

So, why should he leave all of these positives and stability to join Arsenal in the EL, fight with coach when he chooses to air his opinion, get benched and then lose out on making the World Cup? You have to remember he is no longer that 19 year old we signed from Lorient. He now has a lot of experience and that comes with even more voice.[b]


Baba that ship has sailed. I hope we can find 2 quality midfielders and a good striker, we can’t field the same quality in both positions like we did last season.
I respect and love your truthfulness. This is a post devoid of emotions. kiss

my regrets was going for a polytechnic program instead of securing a uni admission. Fr it’s not logical
why would i spend 5yrs as one would spend in a university and still not given the privilege to apply for an msc directly.

Personally i feel going for an hnd program is a waste of time aside dichotomy in nigeria, your hnd can’t get you into an msc program overseas. except you’re willing to start all over with a degree.

coming from an engineering background ONd, i intend to switch to the IT field to pursue a career in data analysis (i’m grounded in python pandas, sql etc) and yes the plan is to secure an admission in computer science or something related. The location of study is germany.

HOw possible is it to secure an admission with an ond cert?


what’s the alternative, if there’re no chances of
getting an admission?

can i apply for an admission in dutchland with Noun 100 level transcript ?

if you have knowledge or first hand experience about this, please kindly share as it will benefit not just me but other aspirants that are willing to study abroad.
danke.
I can help you out with a UK admission with HND certificate. you can reply if serious about it

Giroud us not average. It's his skillset and pattern that Arsenal fans dislike or rather don't understand: once an Arsenal striker doesn't resemble Henry, he can't please Arsenal fans. The problem isn't Giroud but the fans who can't see beyond Henry.

The same mentality was used in judging the likes of Guen, Xhaka, etc if he doesn't play like Cazorla he isn't good.
Giroud on his day can look very good especially on air, flicking assists and bicycling goals (All these rarely happen sef). But outside this, he is so limited and doesn't cut above average IMO.
Maybe if used like France played him, i.e sorrunding him with hard working, ball playing and scoring attackers.
But expecting Giroud to lead your line and be a threat to opposition defense and G.keeper? Impossible!

Btw, you've cooked food for Kokanee now o cheesy he'll so drag him till september.

It was you who came here yarning how Guen will be playing champions league next season and to you that automatically make him what we need. Like the French league is as competitive as EPL.
It was here someone called him a proven midfielder and we are missing out on him.

These were the statements I was responding to don’t come here and make it seem I went off tangent mentioning him in my post.
Should I dig post? cheesy
I have not for once advocate for his come back, I've always maintained he stays,enjoy and continue to grow at Marseille than coming to where someone like you is ready to every negative situations about the club.
Now you have mentioned the boy in almost all your posts in matters not relating with him at all.
I can bet next season, you'll mention him 10 times in situations not related to him cheesy

Interviewer: Mr. Kokaneprodigy, What can you say about Son winning the Golden boot? Response: well, when you don't have a midfielder like Guen, you will win Golden boot.

Interviwer: Mr Kokane, Which team do you think will win the UCL next season? Response: Any team that does not have Guen or any Guen's look alike playing for them.

Interviewer: Mr Kokane, Do you think France can win the upcoming world cup? Response: If they don't make the mistake of letting Guen make the teams squad.

Fast forward 2032, Mr Kokane, Do you think Arsenal's defense has improved? Response: well, they didnt play with Xhaka and Guen, they would have conceded more.

An Arsenal fan to kokane : I suggest we bring back Torreira, Guen, Nelson, Saliba, Mavro and Niles. Response: why will you even think of bringing Guen back? the same guys responsible for us conceding goals, lacking creativity and scoring less goals and have the worst set up and record for the past 50 years.

Thanks and good bye. wink

Respect to Olivier Giroud

The way we condemn players is just too bad and irrational. Giroud left Arsenal and became a legend in football. This was someone Sod, Jodera and Kokane treated as shiit simply because he had no pace and dribbling skills forgetting that there is more to striking than those.
I was part of those who did not like seeing Giroud upfront for us, but i'll say Giroud is an example of you can be average at whatever you do, but with God's grace, you can achieve big in life.
