The transfer market is over bloated bro

Aubameyang is a proven goal scorer in 3 of Europe’s top leagues £80m is doable sha worst case £60m

even tho the market is overbloated, who'll cough out £60m for a 30yr old player? Lol.
Coupled with the fact that arsenal aren't good at selling players at high prices. Bro, highest 30m we go see for Auba

When ceballos was balling beginning of season I told friends straight up this dude no fit play EPL and got enough bants... then they went to Anfield and dude got EXPOSED and since then he’s failed to impact any game.

Arsenal’s transfer policy is SHIT ...

In this era agreed Attackers give you goals but Defenders and Midfielders WIN you games often quietly (but Liverpool defense to MF and city’s de bruyne,Silva and Fernandinho loud o)

Klopp sold countinho and bought van dijk (world record fee) they got to a UCL final and their keeper messed them up!

What happened next season? They spent big to buy a proven keeper! Next UCL final? They win it! Accomplished defensive display and attacking efficiency. NOTE: this team took 4-5 years to piece together.

Now the ironic part? Let’s talk up this season Arsenal need and have always needed a top defender since Campbell aged and left and who did Emery buy in his second summer window? DAVID LUIZ £8m but spent £72m on an attacker (Pépé)

£80m would get you a top young defender like Militao who Real Madrid got for £50m and an extra £15m (£95m)would get Coulibally or Jose Gimenez of athletico ...Leno is a good keeper. Even the saint ettiene guy was bought for next season?? Like which ambitious club does that Oga come and be learning EPL jare.

Next is to get funds for a good solid FB ... chillwell and how do hey raise the cash? Simple! sell Aubameyang for £80m! Then go for Chillwell and put your faith in Lacazette for the season and plan your next summer window.

The second problem with Arsenal is their culture! The clubs tolerance for failure, unprofessionalism and mediocrity is shocking and delusional (Cos they say they wanna win trophies lol) the moment Xhaka took to the field under Arteta I knew He(Arteta) will be a useless coach, I don’t care if am I new manager what Xhaka did should mean the Icardi treatment ... banishment to u-19’s and sold off in January that would have sent a strong message.

Anyway at this rate arsenal will become a Newcastle in the next 5 years maybe even a Leeds

so ceballos that have been months out of injury is a flop. Someone that after Liverpool game played just 4 or less match is a flop right. Also, the Liverpool game you claimed he didn't impress, you should know he played as a winger, not as a midfielder, like he did in the Burnley game. I won't say he's exposed as you opined. I still believe he's a better option than xhaka or guen in that midfield. Pairing him and torreira to me is the best option.

BlueRayDick:
While some people may want to argue this pepe incident is no penalty, I must say I've seen Zaha win penalties against opposing defenders for contacts not as much as that.

The whole idea of VAR and ref having the final say in Epl I still don't get sha

if this isn't a stonewall penalty, then I guess I dunno what penalty is again. We could even see he was going for the ball, and not looking for some cheap dives, but of course, no reason why it wasn't a Pk. Mane, zaha and rashford have been given Pk for something way cheaper than this, and Pk have been awarded against us for something way cheaper than this too. What even made me angry was var even looked at it and deemed it fit not to be a penalty, really can't wrap my head around it. Like I always say tho, with the introduction of var in the EPL, ref (or var) will just favor who dey want to favor, and blow against whom dey want to be against. No standing rules, even players playing the games in EPL don't even know the rules they're under. It's just so sad!

[/b]These set of players are not winners[b], he should manage them till end of season and start total rebuilding.
Torreira worked his ass off unlike his partner,it's looking like the youngsters are the one fighting for the club

Truly, no winner in the team. Also, we lack someone who can drive from the wings and midfield. Pepe, sadly doesn't do such, none of our midfield do such. We have wingers that can't give us goals, midfielder that can't give us goals too, and a striker that loves playing 4 than front 9. I dunno what to say sha, but this arsenal is inferior.
Even if there's a system for you to play, but once in a while, individual prowess can get you out from some tight situations, but sadly, none of our players bar very very few, have that.
It's so sad our team doesn't have a recognized goalscoring winger, recognized goalscoring midfielder and only one recognized goalscorer (Auba).
Mehn, we're truly bleeped!

Spy360:
The transitions has added value to his game

exactly!

Spy360:
His game has really improved since Arteta came in. I was wondering if he wasn't happy with the fullback role. But recent performances show that he is really enjoying his game and the extra rsponsibilities given to him.

if you take an indepth look at Amn game, you will find out he plays more in midfield than a fullback. And since he's a midfielder by default, there'll be an improvement in his play(same role delph and zinchenko played at Manchester city). Kudos to Arteta for improving his game

kodded:
yea I know, swapping our best midfielder and our player of the season in exchange for Thomas partey that has a release clause of £50million, sounds like a nice deal to me

Exactly!
It's a no brainer

kodded:
you want to give them our best midfielder ?

na the first time we dey sell our best midfielder for arsenal?
All the song, nasri and fabregas wey we sell, were dey not our best midfielder those times?
Please abeg, let's sell this our best midfielder and bring partey if that's what it'll take o.

Expert17:
because Great minds think alike........

Lol... OK o

I swear, if this Expert of a guy no be erudior eh...Ma hear. Someone that claims to be a neutral here but is attacking everyone not close to raumdeuter or has same thought as raumdeuter
Mehn, this is glaring na!

kokaneprodigy:
At least he’s not sleeping with his teammates wife or GF.

.

kodded:
why is no one talking about our defenders ?

they played well today, especially that sokratis goal line clearance






...I am really happy that our defense has drastically improved ever since Arteta became our boss





....but seriously we need a LW, hopefully lacazzete will be sacrificed for that cause

we need a starter LW and a Martinelli to drag that rw with pepe. We just need strong competition for places. I think that's the first step in improving the mentality of players.

Talking about the defence. They really tried. I'll give kudos to arteta for the system he deployed for the defence, it's really bringing out the best in them. Ever noticed mustafi never see even bench since that Chelsea disaster?

kodded:
it was that mentality that caused us today's game

scoring one goal and relaxing as if the other team came to snap pictures

[/b]I thank God for that sokratis goal line clearance sha, because e for no funny at all[b]

I swear. Na so e for just turn replay of arsenal Leeds...only that this time we're Leeds. Lol.
That's the main reason I want Arteta to be backed in the market...some of this players need to leave or stay on the bench.

iamoyindamola:
No guen na our best midfielder, laca na motm

[quote author=pazienza post=85714238[b][/b]]Who else noticed Pepe laughing heartily with Nelson at FT. [/b]

Says it all about Arsenal. A game we lost (Yes this draw is like a loss) a winnable game that players should be devastated at the end of the match for dropping points but they were rather amused and happy at the end of the FT[b].

That right there, is the weak mentality and softness of the club.
It runs through the board to the players on the pitch.
There is no winning mentality and absolute abhor for losing or dropping points. It's all too jolly down there. No fighters spirit.[/quote]I didn't notice it cos I went out of viewing center immediately the final whistle was blown.
The mentality is what is really affecting our players, both new and old. I hope Arteta changes it by next season (at least the signs are there), and we hope his been backed by the board for his own players. With this draw, and our rivals winning, I don troway hope for this season. I hope they win the Europa tho.

iamoyindamola:
No be so?
Motm is faultless

lol...
Shey our Motm don shift from guen to lacazette

thorrvik55:
All right.
No vex, abeg u help me see swissh?

lol....
No worry, him go com fire you. I trust am

iamoyindamola:
This guy was our motm against leeds and assisted today
Show some respect

lol...you don start.
You wan mk spy come for your head abi

iamoyindamola:
I will give him till next season he is hot and cold, shown some brilliant spark and that's all

fair enough. Me too tho, I'll give him till next season. I just hope he raise up his game. He tends to kill fast paced attack very well

thorrvik55:
Corrected..

No correct me. Go correct the ref and var wey give una ojoro pk today.

kodded:
I swear, [/b]if na Aubuameyang get that kind opportunity,[b] we for no dey talk all this kind plenty talk by now






some twitter people don dey call am the best non-scoring striker in the world

I swear, if na auba, we for get hope say na goal, but Alex just laca for that side. He's now playing like the giroud we once derided here and sold because of him. So sad

iamoyindamola:
Don't raise your hope....I'm tired of this season we should concentrate on Europa and fa

seriously. Me too I'm tired. I wish we can just carry Europa diz season.
I don't wanna jump into conclusion, but how do you see Pepe. I see him as a guy that's a tad bit overrated. Slow in beating his man in a fast paced league and not an actual good goal scorer

thorrvik55:
K

lol

iamoyindamola:
you sef see am abi

my bro, I see am o.
I don't wanna officially say we're f***kd first. Lemme wait till next game

Spy360:
Answer: VAR is inconsistent. And so useless.

lol... Very very inconsistent. No laid down rule they normally follow

iamoyindamola:
from our motm against leeds of course
But martinelli is back though

lol. Simple to chip ball for the rebound, my striker they take shot wen he knows that keeper is lying on the floor. Only heavens knows he we can rely on him for goals o

thorrvik55:
Yen yen yen

Why did VAR not call back the attention of the ref when Guendouzi fouled Abraham in the box?

Nonsense and Arsenal. Tueh

ok

BlueRayDick:
Any tackle that appears to be reckless will be reviewed by VAR irrespective of if a goal was scored afterwards


It happened Southampton vs Leicester....When the Leicester player was fouled, Ndidi continued play and it led to Chilwell's goal. Immediately the goal was scored, the build to the goal was reviewed and the Southampton player was sent off despite leicester already getting a goal.

A reckless challenge will always be called back by VAR.

Thanks for this answer. It is valid enough.

iamoyindamola:
That's why you hardly see those English cvnts in world stage.
The same var didn't give lacazette red card against leeds, he intentionally kicked an opponent from the back

Just an inconsistent bunch. It just pisses me off. Now I don't even know where our goals will come from

One thing I want to ask is..
Why would var call back the attention of the ref even after auba was yellow carded but during Chelsea game when it was blatant yellow against jorginho, he didn't call back the attention of the ref?

Spy360:
Forgive my bench. That's why Arteta got the job ahead of me.

lol...

Spy360:
Predicted 11 Vs C Palace

........................ Leno........................
AMN.. Socrates.. Luiz.... Kolasinac
........ Torriera ............. Xhaka..........
Pepe............... Ozil............ Aubame
.................... Lacazette....................

With their injury crisis, CP will be available for the take. So I believe we will maintain the same attacking tempo that has been so effective in the last two PL games. that means keeping the side intact. A lot would be expected from Kolasinac and those on the left wing.

Pepe should come one on one with his countryman, Zaha. That would be an epic battle.

Subs: Martinez, Bellerin, Saka, Guendouzi, Willock, Smith-Rowe, Martinelli, Nelson.

I sincerely hope Arteta will look to establishing a standard eleven and then use the younger boys as back ups. Enough of tweaking and tinkering.

Rowe is on loan. And where is ceballos?
