Akinbahm:
I don't know what he's trying to drive out on Guendozi issue, if he can point out 5 good games Xhaka won single handedly for us and when he won Player of the month for Arsenal since Prof signed him into the team...

I don't quite get this. Maybe you can rephrase it

Akinbahm:
Bro, this is a moot point sincerely and you sounds emotionally biased...

Someone who up his game during the period your old clowns failed to turn up...

Lol... Who upped his game? Guen? This season or when? Come on bro?

Spy360:
I believe strongly Ozil will leave. Not sure of Guen. He may just apologize. I am sure Kokaneprodigy wouldn't want it.

Lol, even me sef, I wouldn't want it. Before I know I needed him in arsenal as a squad player and depth, but seeing his attitude against Brighton and even refusing to apologize, I feel he'll be better off of this club

Spy360:
Any additional will depend on whether Guendouzi or Ozil leaves, and the type of midfielder Arteta wants. If not, possibility of Arsenal buying a midfielder is slight.

And they should ensure those 2 leave along with mkhi. We need to get at least 2 midfielders.

kokaneprodigy:
Leave akinbahm to be whining himself. I’m done with that debate.

Xhaka will be good as a squad player, we can’t sell everybody as we also need a robust bench unlike what we have under Emery. Players will get injured from time to time.

Robust bench is one of the strengths of Manchester City.

Yeah, I won't even advocate for xhaka sale. He's not so bad, so I dunno why we should sell him. Inasmuch we won't good first 11, we should also consider bench as you rightly said

[quote author=Akinbahm post=91578170][/quote]he killed everything when he called Guendouzi

Fkhalifa:
Next season starts soon, its about time we start planning ahead.
This season is done! we only have Europa to for.

Arterta seems pleased about 90% of this team and that's scary.

The board will go to sleep till fans begin to protest, Recent result(which to me is papering cracks) has calmed the atmosphere at arsenal.

The board may even give Covid19 excuse for loss in Revenue,whilst our rivals and even teams below will spend like they are in another planet.

At the first bolded part. I disagree with you on that. I don't think he's satisfied with what he got. He just making use of the available he had. I believe he'll strengthen tho. How he'll strengthen is what I'm watching out to see.

At the 2nd part is what I'm afraid of, cos with this pandemic ish, the board might bring such an excuse, considering also we made losses and might not go to Europe next season, it might be pretty difficult for us. Since they said Arteta will be the one to make decisions on transfer, I hope they give him funds to back up the talk. I'll see how the transfer window turns out to be sha. Keeping fingers crossed.

Fkhalifa:
Una still dey discuss Refree and VAR.

Are you not aware of the scary form the scummies are in? and they'll still strengthen in the window.

Or Chelsea? Who just got Ziyech and Werner?

Shey top4 still sure like this next season?

Well, As usual, The manager and some players will be scapegoated again.

Na wen next season wan start we can see whether our board will buy sensibly or not. Now is not the time to talk all about transfer tho(my opinion). Man u are strong, Chelsea are strong, man city and Liverpool are strong. Good thing is Arteta is seeing all these things, so let's see what he has up his sleeves(in terms of transfers)

ChristineC:
so in essence if United beat Chelsea and don't win the FA Cup final, the win was a useless win.

lol...of course. What is the use of winning a team in the cup competition if you don't carry the cup?
But it just shows how superior you guys are to Chelsea team to beat them 4x, it's no easy feat on a normalcy. But the aim is to win the cup.

Expert17:
We don't deal with IF here

lol...but you deal on permutations to enter top4 on top Chelsea head. Is that not if?

sylvalord:
So you are satisfied with only winning once out of four matches? Proper small team mentality.

lol. Not that he's satisfied. But I think the fa cup win against you guys will be greater than the 3 wins you won them, esp if they top you guys in league and still win the fa cup. In fact, if those two happens, then anybody will take that one win over 10s of wins sef

This is a compilation of all Las Blues goals at the 2018 world cup, point out as many goals as u can count in which Giroud's "unselfish play" was the reason those goals were scored by Mbappe, Pogba, Griezmann, etc.

E be like u no know say e worse gan for Giroud ni....How many games did Fekir play? Do u know he had shot on target?

No be everything dem dey show for highlight brother. They're some little details of how he brings mbappe and griezmann together, he movement that might distract defenders for those duo to capitalize. Those details can be seen in highlight. Not saying we need giroud, especially with our kinda midfielders presently, but he was really integral in France run to winning the world cup

Meanwhile, Lloris deserve that world cup. Mehn, see saves.!!

paxonel:
then you don't have any jurisdiction to quote because any attempt you do you will quote me out of context
you see what I'm talking about?
I never said they are old players or can you point out where i said so?
I said in terms of age, Liverpool mostly used older quality players compared to other epl teams who uses young quality players and that age difference gives Liverpool better advantage.
I don't say Liverpool should not use players at their peak of age
his best players that were sold were they not replaced with players of better quality but this time they were younger?
See, all I'm telling you is, when you compare to quality players. Though both players have the required quality in skills but the one with older age will always have advantage over the younger one due to that age difference because the younger one will still not be mature on pitch, that is what Mr klopp knows that has been giving his success, not that he is a very good coach like pep guardiola or zidane or Enrique or Alex Ferguson or Arsene Wenger, we all know his secret.
that isn't excuse at all to receive 5:0 from a team like Aston villa
where there mane, sallah,firmino and van digk in that line up? Google it
all the players i mentioned were his regular features just like the way he uses mane, sallah, van digk, firmino etc in Liverpool frequently.
Yes, Reus, Gotze and Lewandowski were among his frequently used, but they were far younger than the others i mentioned previously.
there are no teams that do not have some of their players being advanced in age, it is normal to have some like that to balance the team.
But where it is bad is when a coach is deliberately selecting players of above 26 years of age which consist almost 90% of his first eleven regular used players just to create that age advantage over other teams that consist of younger players, that is what your klopp knows how to do
Any day he tries to balance his team with younger players, my guy klopp go collect 5

He is not a good coach

2... Nobody uses completely young players except you don't wanna go far. Even arsenal invincibles were players who were at their peak. The moment they started using small boys was the day their trophyless years started. The day they stopped using small boys and started using peak players, they won fa cup back to back. Coincidence??. I'll leave you to answer that.

3. Please name me the better players better than lewandowski they replaced with? Is it Adrian Ramos or immobile? Lol.
Tell me the better player they replaced kagawa and gundogan and gotze with. Is it thorgan hazard that was finding his feet or emre mor? Even wen they unearthed auba and dembele, they still sold dembele, so how do you think a team will settle wen they sell their best players yearly?

4.. And I told you, he didn't manage them. I guess you watched only live score in that match. Klopp never attended the match, no coached that team. Even if he did, I wanna ask, do you expect a feeder team of let's say man city, beat first team of Leicester because they're coached by guardiola?

5... Goggle it and name me one popular (even if it's bench/squad player) that played that match.

6... Madrid players that's atop of LA liga and carried 4x champions league, how many of them were of the ages of lewy and gotze then. In fact, nobody below 22 was in that champions league winning squad. Also, how many young players are in Madrid? So how's zidane a genius but klopp isn't. How is pep a genius but klopp isn't too? Hmm

7.. Tell me any team that balance on both side of ages and are consistently winning.
Let's see , I'm waiting. Thanks

sylvalord:
No bro, you are wrong. Guess again

yeah true. The day are beat scummies 3-0

sylvalord:
But this is our thread na. Do you know since when I have been supporting gunners?

yes.. The day scummies beat us 8-2 ba?
Gerrarahia mehn

paxonel:
in the real sense you know wetin be trash?
Trash na argument were people dey make were the person nor fit back him point with good premises or fact and the one you just made here na very good example
you be fool!
You even know wetin i talk in summary sef?

lol... I don't need to know about your summary, but all what you gave are not fact but opinions.
1... Players between the ages of 25-29yrs are regarded as peak players, but you said they're old players(that's not fact)

2... You rubbished klopp about falling way behind Bayern because they "gave him young players" and not because his best players were sold thereby creating instability (another opinion not fact)

3... Liverpool were walloped 5-0 in fa cup but klopp and his team were in faraway country playing club world cup but you said an "invincible" klopp coached boys of under 17 to receive the thrashing (another opinion not fact)

4... In your bid to discredit klopp, you even named called players who were bench materials as people who klopp won the league and cups with. Who the hell is Castro for god's sake?
And how was sahin a flop under klopp before being sold to Madrid? Reus, lewy gotze, you didn't mention them as key but mentioned Castro and who?? Lol


See you can hate klopp all you want (cos all what you wrote is hate and not been objective), but never ever relate klopp as a mediocre coach.
Even the guardiola you hyped, you forgot the abidals, puyol, Valdez and sylvinho who were old wen he carried sextuple, but na klopp matter you carry for head.
My friend once again.... Your post na thrash

sylvalord:
Hello fellow gunners. Today we play Leicester and that match is a must win. How do we beat those boys in blue? I suggest we just imagine they are Chelsea since they both wear blue. We should play them like we are angry with Chelsea for selling Luiz to us. Which starting 11 will you guys like to see?

#COYG

See this one..
No go dey go your thread!

kokaneprodigy:
it still boils down to Emery’s man management, Guen was invincible and looked untouchable under Emery. Subsequent managers don’t feel same way about him, he’s bound to feel that way.
I lost it when Guen will be directing other team mates on where to position under Emery while he’s jogging down, that should give a hint to what happens behind the scene.
How will senior players correct someone like that and he’ll listen.

I pointed at these little details but was tagged an enemy.

Lol... It's sad really. I wanted that guy to grow at arsenal, but with this his attitude of his and even refusing to apologize, that's the height of it. I feel he needs to go

kokaneprodigy:
Remember I told y’all , giving him a pat in the back coupled with unnecessary hype will be detrimental for his overall growth.

It’s Human psychology 101.

Emery didn’t manage him well at all.

Na dat pat in the back cause everything. I don't want to go back to henry days, but even the days of dem Fabregas and nasri, he can't try this nonsense.

I watched a video where Buffon was advising mbappe, cos he (mbappe) came a few min late to training. Those are the kinda leaders we need, people who can advice you wen necessary and spark at you wen necessary. I think we don't have people that spark at younger players (when necessary) in this team. Just reminds me of Arteta and mertesacker at their playing days

daveP:
Father Hairstyle gave bad advice to Son Hairstyle. Now Son Hairstyle is on the You Will Walk Alone path cos of 4 different issues of indiscipline and outburst with Lil Pep.

Guys in his age bracket are very disciplined. So he has no excuse. And to think he did this at Lorient.... That's worse.


I wish however it can be curbed and used to get a better performance.

Lol, Luiz that is cool headed can't give such advice to guen. Guen no try at all. If only he knew how privileged he's to be in arsenal at such a young age and seeing shirts, he won't have misused this opportunity. Don't be surprised if he lives arsenal he'll just disappear in obscurity

afrodoc2:
Hoping our captain David Luiz plays today.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ef-XZO0Aa7Y

I even thought it was only Luiz mistakes sef. They now pack arsenal at the forefront as if na only arsenal

paxonel:
wrong!!
Mourinho did used aged players and was succeeding, at a point he was among the best coaches. But the moment he was handed over teams comprising young talented players, he couldn't manage them to maintain his past records, he is currently struggling with the current Tottenham team, why?
Because he wasn't a very good coach in the first place who can manage all categories of age, whether they are young or aged .
The same thing applies to klopp, we all know how klopp began to flop the moment Borussia Dortmund decided to introduce young players like Jadon Sancho, Aubumeyang, Nuri Sahin, Manuel Akanji, Christian pulisic.
It was recorded that Borussia dotmond who was contesting vehemently with Bayern Munich fell and finished at the fouth position in bundesliga 2017 season with just 55 points under the watch of this same klopp who once at previous seasons paraded players like Sergio Gomez(aged 26), Yamolenko(aged 28), Shinji Kagawa(aged 27), Gonzalo Castro(age 28) and was competing with Bayern Munich at the top the table.

We all know that Liverpool current players are at their best in terms of quality, but that age difference is what is really giving Liverpool advantage over other teams like Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester united, Tottenham that may equally have that same quality players with younger age.

Without that age difference, I bet you, Mr klopp is powerless. I say Aston villa trashed Liverpool 5:0 this season the day klopp ventured to feature his young players at FA cup opening, what kind of coach is that?

As a coach you should be able to use your players irrespective of their age, that is what makes coaches like Alex Ferguson, Arsene Wenger, Pep Guardiola, Zinedine Zidane, better coaches.

But don't worry, these Liverpool players they are already at their peak age, and other teams having young talented players are coming up. We will see what will become of Liverpool by then.
Just watch!!

Klopp think he is smart?

Bros, You suppose collect award for the longest trashy and dustbin post of the decade. 2020 never end but I bet you, nobody can say more nonsense than this. Fact!!

Spy360:

I enjoy getting behind his skin.

Meanwhile, Guendouzi has been training alone for two weeks after refusing to apologize for the Brighton incident. The lad most likely will be offloaded basically for indiscipline.

Good one by Arteta for me. There should be zero tolerance for indiscipline. We must destroy this bad atmosphere.

Please, are you serious about this? I'll need to read from a source if you have any.
That's too too bad of him if true

Roland17:
The more confusing/ difficult conversation we seem to be avoiding is E. Martinez's form and the competition for the number 1 spot!

To me oo... It's not bad to have two good shot stoppers. Let Martinez man the cup games and Leno man the league games, just as Cech and Leno did. I think that will be fair fall all

iamoyindamola:
What will happen to ceballos, he's looking like he's part of arteta's plan

Even Arteta is planning to permanent his stay here. He knows he won't see a shirt at Madrid, I hopes he stays with us tho.

Fkhalifa:
Abi.
Why should I stress myself on somebody whose views can be likened to those who feel Aresnal has been doing well since DjCuppy left.

Lol... Kokane na our guy sha. Na Emery dey cause all these things

kokaneprodigy:
Can you name one area Guen will be missed in team or an area he helped add to the team or an area he has improved in significantly since he joined?

I can conveniently answer those questions for Saka and Martinelli. Guen is older than both, he is 21 Saka is 18 while Martinelli is 19 and they had less playing time under Emery compared to Guen.
So what did Guen do with all the playing time he had?. He’s just a white man’s Elneny.

Come off it.

Boss. I know that you don't like guen o. In fact, most people here don't like guen, but you can't pin all our poor performances on him. Aside Emery starting him which is not his fault, the other players this season was either sub par or Emery confused and change of formation every match day which leaves our players confused too. In as much I like as guen isn't a starter, but guen is a real good squad player that can add to the depth of team and see out games we're winning. I think the last part is what you're blind to see for guen, as you feel guen is an entirely useless player. Guen is good as a squad player but not as a starter. My grouse all these while was him starting and people justifying it, now that it's been sorted, I think we should just be happy instead of still blaming guen, cos even the blind can see that guen starting was really bad for the team. Let's just enjoy our arsenal

Fkhalifa:
Yes I can't wait for him to go out to one of the rumoured top teams after him, so we can start winning teams ahead of us away from home, we've failed to win since he's arrived from 2015.

This sarcastic response Mahdd!!!!!

Spy360:
I support Arteta 100% on this one. This is the kind of ruthlessness we want in our club.

me too oo

Seems to say guen and ozil are finally frozen out of the squad

daveP:
But me i gats just include Auba men. I have imagined what he will do with Alexis on his left, an Alexis that understands body language like Auba and a sneaky Nasri on that right side.

lol... To be sincere eh. I get you and spy point. But also, I'm thinking, what of Alexis - van persie combo.

With ozil at the back.

daveP:
Lol. Over 100goals no be beans.

What of a B trio

I gues Gervinho and Podolski will cut it then.

if there's a b trio, then Walcott inclusion not there is an injustice. Lol.

But I'll go for

Chamberlain. Aubameyang. Podolski
