I think balogun is in the first team
He have a new number too

Roland17:


Balogun is already in the first team and should get some serious minutes if we have a concerned coach. I am not sold on Nketiah, I think he should be sold or loaned but at this point, I won't mind giving him some minutes to see if he can find anything near a goal scoring form.

Roland17:
Let me add that if the officiating today is what we should expect this coming season, then we may be in for a long season with the officials. The referee swallowed his whistle and allowed both teams to physically slug it out. The match did not have too many stoppages as a result of fouls which is good if you ask me and if it is balanced on both sides.

I love the fact that he is a forward thinking midfielder with energy, lets wait and see him in real games but I was quite impressed with his showing. I am happy you made this comment about Pepe because if na me make am e go be like say na because I like the guy.lol. He finished last season strongly and seems to have carried his form into the preseason. He can have a good season if he continues especially with his confidence level and keeping things simple.

As for Mari? Make I keep quiet because if I start now, dem go remind me say Saliba insult our ego driven coach Arteta. Saliba would have provided us a strong option to evaluate for that 2nd CB position.

BlueRayDick:
This madness I just keep reading about Arsenal.being interested in Tammy Abraham

While some people are complaining about Auba not doing anything other than scoring tap-ins, the club then decides the best and right thing to do is bring in a certain Tamuno

E just be like say Arteta and the board no get good plans for us this season at all

iamoyindamola:


I see what you did there

Spy360:

Saliba is not an option to Mari. I think Gabriel will man that position this season.

Spy360:

But jokes apart. If you want to achieve anything in life, the first place to start building is your fence (defense).

That's why good teams attack from the back and defend from the front.

That's why Liverpool paid millions for a goalkeeper and a defender to win the league and CL. Same did Man City and Chelsea.

That's what Ferguson and Mohammed Ali believed.

I know some people will misconstrue this and start arguing blindly.
It's not saying only defense will win you league, or don't build attack.

It is saying the best method is to start with strengthening defense first before attack.

I dan tire sef
I hear we are in hunt for another CB

kokaneprodigy:

Defence wins you league.

kokaneprodigy:

Lies!!!

All the club you mentioned above bar Atletico Madrid never strengthened defence first before attack.

They already had strong attack and were doing well in the league only to add a formidable defender as the icing on the cake to remain dominant.
Atletico took the other route and it took them longer to get any trophy,(they had to invest in their attack to clinch anything) the other teams I mentioned above were at least getting one trophy or the other before splashing heavily on defense.

You need to understand that it’s more difficult integrating a midfielder or attacker into a team than a defender or goal keeper. You eat your big frog first!

I don't understand this obsession with a left footed LCB


Italy just won euros with two right footed CB

Roland17:


In their current form, none of Lacazette or Auba can guarantee us 20 goals. Our attack especially in the final 3rd remains same.. nothing different. Nketiah should move on from Arsenal in my opinion and I hope Brighton take him..

Spy360:

Every coach has his plans.
