Can we get Victor Osimhen ?
I think we got the wrong Viktor even though he’s the best PK taker in the world
We need a solid Timber replacement
We need creative midfielders because Eze & Odegard have issues, not consistent or injuries
Id keep Trossard because he picked form late
Id keep Martinelli too except they’re getting a good left winger

Evra is mocking Arsenal for not winning the big ears trophy
Arteta needs to win that trophy next year
It has to be semi final, semi final, final & then champions pls
We had the easiest route to the finals this year because we did a good job in the group phase, we should do same next season
personally, I don't think we need Osimhen, he's the same profile as Gyokeres, we need a jesus type of striker, someone who's good with the ball at his feet but more clinical. Timber needs a good deputy if white is going, which i think might be happening. Between Martinelli and Trossard I think the later should leave while we keep Nelli.

Odegaard still has it in him but needs to be fully fit to play at his best, this season him and Saka were never fully fit at anytime and the world is not going to help unless the get knocked out earlier.

If kepa leaves, then we will be out for another no.2 keeper, but for now the main priority should be a decent RB, LW. Rogers that we are going for is just another Eze type of player who doesn't really enjoy defending or covering tracks. I really don't care the profile they sign, just get someone for the obvious positions that are lacking. And replace the ones that will be leaving.

Yes, every member of the class 2025/26 won us the league!
Yeah, every member. That "who won us" and "in his first season" being together in a sentence sounds like he single hand led us to the trophy.

More goals from him next season, amin.

Kai and Saka needs to have their best game today and deliver us the trophy.

Personally, there's nothing I would love than Kai, Saka or Martinelli giving us the winning goal.

Today Arteta has the opportunity to write his name in the history books as the greatest manager in Arsenal History. The players have the opportunity to be legends, the fans have the opportunity to be on top of the world.

I hope it all works out.

Funny thing is Areta somehow was able to have a very good work relationship with the hot headed Xhaka; the same player who most fans had already given up on . In fact, Arteta turning around Xhaka's story at Arsenal is a clear example that Arteta is not the bad man-manager some fans may want to paint him because one would think if Arteta would have issues with senior players, Xhaka will be number one on the list.
Xhaka and David Luiz, two main hot headed players that played under him and still loves and credits him all the time.
Calafiori said he loves and hate Arteta at the same time because of how he is always telling him new things every week.
Rice was ready to sign for city untill he spoke with Arteta.
The peace and coordination in the team is the only thing one needs to look at to know how respected Arteta and his coaching staffs are. Even those not playing says he always talks to them regarding their playing time and tries to explain.
Pepe started playing better when Arteta really took him personal and he fell out the moment Arteta thought he was OK.

Personally at some point with how he makes his team selection, i questioned if he listens at all. But Eze, Calafiori, Rice, Odegaard giving examples of when and how they meet him to discuss and he listened made me change my mind on that. For those players to be free enough to meet their boss and demand or share ideas with him, can only mean they all have a good relationship.

I also wondered why he's bent on blaming Arteta for Auba and Ozil's exit ; especially Auba's. Auba is not a model for well disciplined superstar at all. Auba that had the same discplinary issues at national team level at the 2022 AFCON when him and Lemina broke the team's curfew by returning late to their hotels leading to a clash with security.

It's understandable why he was axed at Arsenal because he will surely be a bad influence on the young team we were building to go back to winning ways.

I am one of the biggest Auba's fan and I remember how I used to have tons of arguments with Iamoyindamola defending Auba every week back then. I never really liked Lacazzette and would always refer to Auba is the model goal poacher we need as a team.

But the moment the news of his indiscipline issues made the rounds and he was axed, I agreed with the club management and wash my hand commot Auba matter. I can't condone indiscipline from a player being paid millions yearly who just can't behave himself on and off the pitch.
you get right?, i mean all this things played out before us, so why would he wanna rewrite history by pinning it on the coach?.
Same discipline issues made him leave Dortmund.
Made him leave Arsenal.
Made him leave the national team
Made him leave Marsielle. But somehow Mikel chased him out of Arsenal according to our brother.

Ozil - His issues at the Club has nothing to do with the Chinese Muslims, while the Club distance itself from the his comment then they did not invalidate it cos even the UK government had it issues with the Chinese treatment of it citizens... His issues with Arteta comes from the manager wanting him to press more which isn't his game and ego issues (probably Ozil never rated him being more accomplished than MA)

Auba - The player has said it many times that it's was MA that granted him the leave of absence to visit his mom only to change and leave him out of the team when he came back https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/28211926/pierre-emerick-aubameyang-arsenal-arteta/

Special mention to Guendouzi who does what Veira, Parlour and Keane did back in the days cheesy grin grin...

He won the League and that's Great, but I won't call him a good Man Manager of the class of Fergie (Keane, Ronaldo and Ferdinard) and Wenger ( Merson and Adams) or Ancelotti with the shiit he has to swallow at Madrid with big egoistic players...
Bro, Ozil never said he had an issue with Mikel. In all of his interviews there has never been a case where he said anything about Mikel. Ozil's issue with the team started after his post about the Muslims in China and the Chinese fans started burning Arsenal shirts and cancelling us. The club distanced themselves from the issue because China was our biggest Asian country. Ozil was playing regularly and getting his form back till that happened and he stopped playing, and from there the issue skyrocketed to that of him paying the fees of the mascot after Arsenal cut off his payment during covid. So brother, I am 100% sure that Arteta had nothing to do with Ozil be ostracised.

Auba was given a timeline to come back and he overstayed, and to make matters worse, a picture of him getting a tattoo when he was meant to be back went public. And it wasn't just that one scenario, aura has been coming late to trainings and other discipline issues.

I seriously don't know why you want to blame Arteta for these two specifically, cus I know what I said up there is exactly what played out. I think i am Ozil's biggest fan, so when I tell you it had nothing to do with Mikel, believe me bro.

Odegaard might not be the loudest player on the pitch but the way all the players respect him and admit he's a leader in the group is so captain material.

I think Rice and Saka said he was the one constantly uplifting the group together with norgaard.

This is subjective in the sense that this his current side lacks any superstar, but judging with the way he treated Ozil and Auba; he seems to have issues with big players...
Ozil had issues with the club because of his stand with Chinese Muslims and auba was steadily going against the rules which wasn't a good example for the youngsters.

.

Baba same thing with the way the hierarchy haters have been doing.
When it came to arsenal turn they will turn it like amala. Before U can only win something if Ur team carry cup.that was how Foden in that year won over Saka despite Saka having a better season.
E reach this year..they now remember that assist na the main thing.
They even said Raya should not be because he had abetter defence but before now clean sheet was the yard stick.

Raya has been collecting clean sheet for past 3 seasons but one Muti former keeper says Onana is world class.
I just pray we buy those player we ought to be this season so that the noise will be killed permanently
It's funny how they hate us, one guy showed a video of how Rice held a Chelsea player during a corner and was ranting of how we cheated, I pointed out to him how caicedo also held Raya and yet he still got his hands on the ball to tip it over. Same sequence, same type of foul but you're crying about that of Rice and ignoring the one on Raya, the baba blocked me. grin cheesy

These people just hate Arsenal and it makes their tears so sweet and special. They don't de rally around PSG, I can't wait to see how it ends too.

They crucified us all season cus of set piece but ended up using the same set piece as a yardstick for the best player. Extraordinary!!!!! Sensational!!!

I keep wondering, how the fucck did Henry get 20 open play assists while playing as a striker and still got over 20 goals?. And still didn't win the player of the year.

With the league already bagged, there's no need to play our main players. Teta can start the minors and those that haven't gotten enough chance this season. The focus now is on ucl final.

One thing I observed from all the talks since we confirmed the title is that Arteta is not really hard on the players and a dictator like we think. From Eze being free and bold enough to meet him after the Man city game and suggest he gives them freedom and space with less training schedules to him admitting we were shit in the wolves game when other staffs provided stats after he first said it was a great performance. Many times he has taken the blame and fall for our results even when players blame themselves, that is a true leader and manager.

City losing Bernado and stones plus potentially Rodri will weaken their team for sure, because they are the core part of city's winning players.

It's true that the league is ours to lose or win depending on the outcome of our remaining two games, but there's nothing I would love to see than us winning Burnley today and City dropping points on Tuesday. Can Bournemouth just do it for themselves and get a grip on 6th position or even challenge for 5th?, it won't be bad to get a guard of honour against Crystal Palace and also rest our best players ahead of the crucial final.

With the way injuries are flying up and down, it will be better to rest our best legs on the final day while being crowned as champions.

we know he phucked up, but he also rectified it. If he didn't correct his initial stupidity, then that would have been a problem. If we win the league no one deserves the award more than him.
