You just finally arrived to all what we're saying. Whether you wrap it under tactical or not is another debate on its own. grin grin

The koko is that if Martinelli keeps on messing up, he'll be benched sooner rather than later. Na just the potential of what he can brings that's still keeping him in starting lineup but there's a limit to rubbish a coach can take.
It was a nice ride with him, I totally enjoyed it from a distance grin grin grin grin

No, you are not getting it. League is not won with an excellent performance against a particular team but by your total performance for the whole season. No one blamed Pep for our loss, we just admitted the obvious that he was better overall than Arteta last season and has better prospect to win than Arteta .

Even though we took more from City as an individual team, Pep had more experience and was more stabled and not jittery carelessly like we did earlier in the season. So when it turned to h2h finish with Pep he had better fixtures than us and we lost to Villa even though we won tougher opponents and drew City, so Pep's better experience with earlier advantage won.

Confidence and experience with skillsets are built gradually. The good thing is that we were making gradual progress from being an underdog to a Title challenger. Now we know, it's just a mater of time, if we continue this way, we will win with luck not against us.

Look, I am more keen with our game this week with Villa than any other. Villa was Arteta's nemesis last season, the result this weekend has a lot to say if Arteta is ready or not. Let's focus on that for now.

I think he would have stayed. If Ethan and Myles could still be with the squad till now, Dubbery would not be loaned out. The three of them were given the same path. Dubbery opted not to sign a contract and chose to leave.
exactly bro. Good luck to him though.

The thing even shock me when I saw it now.

Some Resident fans were saying he'll start for Brighton after he scored in their preseason and we're taking digs at Arteta.

Now same Brighton didn't even see him as a squad player in their team. It's so sad
Was just surprised because this is the same route Arsenal wanted him to take but he disagreed and everyone blamed not just Arteta but the whole management team(I myself inclusive). Now Brighton have just done the same with him, and someone is giving excuse that Brighton have a lot of players for his position as if Arsenal don't have other options to choose ahead of him too. If one choose to constantly see 6 as six alone forgetting that it can also be 9 from another view point, then I have no business engaging such person. After all what do I know, I'm just a stoner who loves Arsenal more than any individual in the team.

no I don't follow the guy, I saw the news in one arsenal blog like dat. But just like you, someone mentioned the Omotolani guy in the comments, so I'm guessing he's the real owner of the post. What's his handle on fb let me check him out?.

What a shame, Duberry can’t even make Brighton’s bench yesterday, and now he's been linked to a loan move to Championship sides. Another one that left and is now back on the exact path he could’ve had at Arsenal

2022/23.... We dropped 5 points first half of season.

2023/24... We dropped 5 points 2nd half of the season.

Can we drop just 5 points across the whole season this time?? grin grin grin
You just de use half information dey hold body and give yourself hope cheesy grin total 2023 how many did we dropped and total 2024 how many did we drop. If we drop only 5 throughout the season, I don't think we will miss out on lifting the trophy. 5 points!huh A man can dream shaa.

Lol, I don't think Havertz will drag that spot with anybody. He's already cemented the Cf place especially as we're actively pursuing Merino. Highest he'll be shifted to midfield towards end of Match to shore things up.

If he can finish with 13goals last season even after starting as a Cf second half of the season, then maybe him fit reach 20-25goals so I'm not even pessimistic about that. Just tell your baby not to disappoint us grin grin

And also, I believe you're right. Me thinks Martinelli and Trossard one spot while Jesus and Saka the other spot with Jesus also deputizing Havertz.

Epl starts today, can't wait to see your baby shut all of us up cheesy cheesy
Before the end of first round he will already be up ahead of his last season numbers smiley all those pundits that criticize our celebration won't know how to react, cus the noise will be louder this season. I just want Emirate to be a fortress like Anfield, whole season unbeaten with less than 6 draws.

Lol, na 25goals we need from your baby oo

Which one be 25g/a. That's like 15goals with 10 assist kwanu grin grin

Mba!! grin
God bless you for this correction. I realized that we're on an upward trajectory so my baby is getting 25 goals for sure, if only Arteta won't make him drag spot in the already congested midfield. Havertz up front, Jesus drag right wing with Saka, or like the coach did later part of last season and try Martinelli on the right to give Saka rest, so Jesus will drag that left side with Trossard. Make Havertz lead the line and I guarantee you 25 goals grin grin Jesus can play top front in cup games shaa.
With the way this transfer window is going, I don't think Arsenal will get any player for that Saka spot, I've made peace with that but if they surprise me, I go take am.

Man used to be good though. Three key things that worked against him were the ban, his poor goal return and his attitude (especially at the Emirates).
after the ban he was trying so hard to do even the simplest things he used to do, he wanted to prove himself so hard that it affected him negatively. At least that's what I think.

Bournemouth going for Evanilson. Nketiah back in the market. Assuming Arsenal still retain their interest in Ivan Toney, it would have been easy to just do swap deals.
I no too rate Toney abeg, I will prefer Havertz to him currently grin cool

I think it is possible although that Vieira's example was a joke.
during ESR groin injury crisis, one doctor like that said there's a player in northe London who's always having groin issues and his sex life is part of the building factors, and advise both him and his team doctors to take note(not his exact words though, but something close to that). And within that time it was smith who had such injury crisis, so yeah, sex can affect the groin

Player’s performance is usually judged alongside their price tag, the guy didn’t justify his price tag with his performance.

Now list other players alongside their price tag and let’s compare with Peperenpe
Person don tell you say he isn't looking at it from the price point, but you still want him to provide what??. We too like argument for this our thread like mad grin. Good day boss.
