You still dey hope for striker?

When I was shouting it here that as far as Arteta's tactics is concerned a striker will not be a priority. As it stands now, for us to sign a striker we must look for a way to sell Nketiah. As any striker will simply be a backup option just like Nketiah.

Arteta no fancy striker again like that year he joined us.

Abeg scroll up and read again.

germaphobe:
Before the end of first round he will already be up ahead of his last season numbers 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.

You dey see vision?

Jodera:
Lol...
I'm just being realistic oo. Do you think it's possible to get 114/114?

It may not be possible but that should be their target this season. Just win every match.
Philosophically speaking, the only way to win is to target the maximum.

Jodera:
Even that same season that we played Brentford, that they were intercepting Ramsdale, Dem no see am too.

Lol, it's funny if they think we'll still carry same tricks as last season entering into this season. Even if they didn't make the rules, opponents no go even allow us

I trust Jover to construct something new sha

You dey mind them.

I trust Jover to bring something up. We will likely have Calafiori, Saliba, Gabriel, Merino, Havertz and White in the opponent's box during corners anyway.

I won't be surprised if they come up with rules regulating the number of players (and their heights) that should be in the box during corners kicks.

Jodera:
Lol... He's the striker we would love, tho I was even skeptical about him at first (when he was at sociedad). It's just that I no dey reason am cos I know he's their poster boy. I doubt if we drop 100m they'll even sell him sef, that's to tell you why I'm not even looking at his direction

Watkins na another person I like. He's someone I love his style of play first time I followed him right from his debut Aston Villa campaign and tbh it'll be easier to get Watkins than Isak

I read something about Newcastle having PSR and FFP issue and they need to sell. That's why I think we can just play with them small.

Watkins is good. He seems to be an Arsenal fan sef. He couldn't celebrate when Son missed that famous chance against City last season. But Aston Villa won't let him go.

Jodera:
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??

No abeg... Not a single point should be dropped. They should win all their matches.

Jodera:
Very very ridiculous. And they still had the mind to want to punish Arteta for the remarks he made. Omorr.

I also read that this season, all those Ben White shenanigans will be penalized. It's one of the rules

These people no go kill person

That wouldn't stop us from scoring many goals from setpiece sha. That Aston Villa (forgot his name) was visibly hugging Ramsdale when Douglas Luiz scored straight from CK yet the goal stood. Small play wey Ben White dey play with GKs make Dem no go too tense when we wan play corner, Dem go conjure one rule. mtchew

Jodera:
how much you think say Isak first worth wey you wan drop 10m with Nk?

Bro, how often do you enter local market? We go tell them say we value Nketiah as 40m. If them no gree, we go add 10 more.

I just like that guy. He is a perfect example of a player Arteta wants. He is a good outlet, very fast and physical, excellent dribbling and ball-carrying, and can score goals too.

When I was reading the analysis earlier this year, two names were suggested - Isak and Rashford. Except that Rashford is not the physical type.

Jodera:
Lol..
Nothing pain me reach that Newcastle match sha. I swear e really pain me

Like bro.. it was not 1 but 3 blatant decisions. Ball out of play, a foul on Gabi and an offside. That was ridiculous.

Make we drop 10m plus Nketiah for Isak na...

Jodera:
Lol..
I didn't think it that way but then I don't think epl board will be daft to do that.

Imagine Anthony Taylor is an arsenal fan and we're locked on In a two way battle with Man City and Man City wants to play Chelsea. I'm not sure they'll want to put Taylor to officiate the game..

But I dunno Sha

Na them Sabi... But I wouldn't rule that out sha... no be PGMOL again.

Jodera:
This ought to be the best suggestion cos I don't get the idea of telling ref to reveal their club.

All that won't have been necessary if this your suggestion was carried out

One thing is to acknowledge my team didn't perform up to expectation, but not ref influencing the outcome of a match through debatable decisions only for their organization to issue apology later.

Jodera:
Rumors have it that Anthony Taylor supports us.

Have you forgotten we hardly loses anytime he officiates?

But what if ref lie say him dey support one club so that he'll get to officiate his main club

Example, Anthony Taylor says he supports Chelsea but deep down he knows he supports Arsenal, so that he'll have the opportunity to officiate our games

That one still dey bro. PGMOL just dey miss road with their policies. Let there be panel set up to investigate the performance of referees. Any referee that fumbles should be fined and penalized. simple!

Jodera:
... In what aspect please?

In a scenario where you need the club you are officiating to lose points so your favorite team can benefit.

Jodera:
Yeah, but they'll do it privately.

So this season, if we just see one or two particular refs not officiating our games, just know say na Arsenal fan

I doubt we get ref wey dey support us.

You're letting Roque go leaving Lewa as the main striker, and you still sold Guiu. What a ridiculous decision. Guess what, Chelsea will. likely loan Guiu out.

Ijustwantto:
Wow. Dats a good idea, because everybody involved in football will always have a favorite club. They should bring it to laliga too if it's true. I know most of them will mention cele club

Anyways, which referee would you like to hear his club. Michael Oliver??

I would have mentioned Howard Webb but he has retired.

Naming the clubs they support is not enough sha. They can still influence things for these clubs.

Heard Siasia's ban expires today. Maybe they're waiting for him.

germaphobe:
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 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.

Lol... I would go with 25G/A instead of 25 goals.

Heard PL refs will declare their club of allegiance this season. They will stop officiating in any match involving their clubs of allegiance.

daveP:
Exactly where he plays for Atalanta on the LHS of attack. I hope you saw the conditional statement sha?

ok

[quote author=JohnBullMySon post=131527711][/quote]straight from the oven. Very hot and fresh.

daveP:
That's why. Normally person go check if na fluke but he's not just consistent but also their top performer till yesternight, playing that way vs Madrid. His link up and movement and flair, unpredictability all join....
I'll take him if chance dey. Personal bias-i want a Super Eagles player in Arsenal. Since Iwobi, none!!

And where will you play him?

germaphobe:
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.

Yea.. you have a point. He tried too hard.

germaphobe:
I no too rate Toney abeg, I will prefer Havertz to him currently

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).

germaphobe:
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

Thank you!
cc Jodera

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.

Ijustwantto:
Maybe baba got kicked during training

Then why not ankle, knee or calf?

Jodera:
I swear, in all my years of following football, it's here I'm hearing someone is having injury through sex

I think it is possible although that Vieira's example was a joke.

Shegzdave:
Saliba case might be his gene tho cause I’ve seen someone like him also; so muscular with little to no gym, Saliba will definitely gym more if he’s adding more weight and losing his speed.

Viera should better bulk up or else but only Arteta knows what he sees in the lad tho.

Yea.. could be gene.
Vieira is actually good technically. His issue has been his frame and maybe confidence.

Jodera:
Tbh, person dey get injury during sex??
I'm asking cus me I be Celibate boy

Be like so

Awesome01:
Why is Barca not looking to get this Merino guy for Dm?

Person wey dey go Arsenal? Moreso, he is not a DM.
