Saw a clip where the exact same style was attempted on Chelsea. Like exact same moves. Difference was White was not involved in the Chelsea own but was against Spurs. Mendy couldn't catch it but it went off bar. Very close.

Was it the preseason 4-0?

I think I saw something like that during the highlight I watched tho I didn't start from the beginning of the move

daveP:
Its somehow that Sanchez and Monreal had a lively pairing than Nelli is currently seeing.
Infact Kolasinac too before he was giving rubbish moves. If Nelli is going to be effective,he needs his own Odegaard on that LHS. Else, all we have will be space with few goals. Nelli too needs to be conscious of Xhaka.

That 3rd goal was cos he was dispossessed and ball fell to xhaka.



Well, lets put that match behind us abeg.

We get Bodo Glimt and Liverpool, i think.

False he wasn't dispossessed but he left the ball for xhaka

Saliba offered new deal

Jodera:
I believe we're done with this talk since you said we should let it slide..

My own is that I've learnt it's good for a defender to recklessly slide a player inside 18-yard box and that causing penalty is good. So let's just leave it laidat

Please don't learn bad thing

As you don talk say e good, naim be say e good be that

I read Saka is about to be offered an improved contract in the region of 200k per week; making him one of the highest paid players in the league.

Omo, na so person life dey better through hardwork and taking opportunity when u see it.

Unless we are giving him life contract
We should thread with caution

How do u mean? U mean we should offer him a lesser contract?

Against liverpool,
Na Teneiry[b][/b] dey my mind.
If xhaka and Partey are fit and firing
Zinny may not be that needed.

Sincerely, I am hoping we beat liverpool,
They aren't that strong this season
But one thing is, they have goals in their locker,
So we have to match them,

I think Zinchenko should play. Going by how we do overload that left wing, Salah will have no choice but to defend. Playing Tierney because of Salah will carve out our Midfield.

At the bolded, was it deliberate or a mistake? This is like the 3rd time I'm noticing it now.

Going by how Arteta is setting up his team, I doubt we'd see something like those again. Tierney and Martinelli could have been a great pair though. They were unplayable in some UEL matches that year.

Jodera:
Yeah, even in Carling cup too.

Tho I wasn't specific but what I actually meant was In league duels sha. I think it's just that once

I think Thiago will play since he's fit (played against Brighton)
But their form haven't been that impressive and I just hope we capitalise

Alright...
I fear Thiago o....

Premier league is not UEFA (in my Asake voice)
If you're not playing hide ya face, if you never win am before just keep quayet forever ... The big boys game not for noisemakers ..
We go troll you forever .. Yeye team

It looks like, but I'm not sure.

200k will raise eye brow
Others will want the same and we might not be able to satisfy everyone
IMO add ons should make up that 200 than actual 200k

If we don't pay him, another club will poach him and pay him even higher. Do u think a club like Man utd that pays Sancho( who is not even better than Saka by any standard) as much as 350k weekly will not offer Saka 250k the moment he rejects our our offer?

In whatever they do, I don't want to see Pepe coming back to this team struggling to "drimble" one player for 90 minutes on the flank. Bloody ivory coast Yahoo boy

We will not take that!

Lol, after the first season, I just comot mind for Pepe.

Him pattern of play and inconsistencies no dey give anybody hope at all

I fully support this. Give him straight 200k from 30k and Martinelli will be looking for 250k when he wants to sign his. Jesus might look for 400k when he wants to upgrade his too..

If the 200k is made up of add-ons, it'll be better, at least it'll motivate him to play more better. It'll be somehow for us to lose Saka like Rashford or Martial because of high wages.

Arsenal should be wise about it so that we don't lose Saka to our due to him not extending as well as not giving him exorbitant wages so that he doesn't lose focus

Make them Athletico, Barca, Chelsea,
and Tottenham better mind themselves and dey their dey in UCL oo. I no come understand which Kain wahala be this


It's high time Uefa scrap this 3rd placed team joining the Uefa lower division knockout stage.

It needs to be stopped abeg

If Saka's contemporaries like Halland, Sancho are rumored to be earning 375k and 350k respectively ( being very important players for their respective clubs like saka is for Arsenal) ; tell why u think Saka's agent would not be out to.get something huge for his principal in this contract negotiations.

I wouldn't mind us giving him the 200k if it will include add-ons like u rightly said o. Afterall the pepe wey we carry big money sign and big money salary no just dey Enjoy proceeds of his fraud at the club

Halaand is the most sought after striker in the world so it's really understandable for him to command such a wage. His numbers are so damn unreal and ridiculous prior to man city so him going into any big club, it's expected of him to command such wage. He's an anomaly in this case not the norm.

As for Sancho, Man u are acting like magas giving ridiculous contracts to people not deserving of it and this is due to their desperation or sort. Imagine Antony of ystdy wey no dey even command shirt for Brazil neither is he posting unreal numbers earning 200k. This is having a rebound effect on that team and it's one of the reasons why it might be long before they get it right. It's one of the main reasons we're getting it right too(shedding off unnecessary high earners)

Let's take a look at G.Jesus. We need him, he's 25, he's got experience and talent yet he's earning 194k(less than 200k). That's how it should be. If to say Saka dey sign 6yrs contract, I wouldn't be too disturbed but for just a reported 3-4yrs contract(especially if it's 3yrs), I'm surprised especially the rebound effect it might happen if he wants to extend again or others wants to extend.

My questions for you are simple..

Has Saka done enough with Arsenal to command that sort of contract? Does he have international notoriety and respect amongst his peers to command that kind of contract?

Has Martinelli or any other player for that matter done anything remotely close to what Saka has done for us since he transitioned to the first team? We are talking about our most valuable player here not a one hit wonder!

I believe the man has earned his contract, reward him accordingly.

He's done a lot for arsenal but it's not just about giving him a contract that might make him lose focus or be a platform on how others would want their own wages to be like(rebound effect). We know how the Ozil and Auba saga panned out and these aren't one hit wonders either.

I'm not against him earning the 200k, what I'm wary about is the effect it might have on him and on the squad too.

I was thinking it'll even be 150k from his 30k(5x what he's earning) for the 3-4yrs, then if he wants to extend again, well be talking about 200-260k or thereabout depending on how in-form he is. The 200k as base wage for such short duration doesn't feel too right.

And just to add, the Martinellis, Tomi, Saliba and others are all earning less than or slightly above 100k if I'm not wrong. How their increment will be might surely have an impact on how they see the jump of Saka own, especially if they continue such exceptional performances. We all know how agents can act

A very very interesting and insightful piece. You can do well to read it at your leisure time

We don’t have to punish Saka for meeting criteria for such contract. That is why I asked, has Saka done everything for Arsenal to deserve such contract conversations? You are talking about a contract that will make him lose focus, I mean no one goes into contract negotiations with that mindset in professional sports. If the player has earned such demands and possesses the value, then he should get it. It’s not up to me and you or Arsenal to determine if such amount will affect his performance, he is an adult. Would you rather under pay him and have a disgruntled player who happens to be your most valuable player?

Martinelli of which day? Martinelli has absolutely no moral or performance right to ask for anything close to what Saka has asked for. If I am not mistaken, this is Martinelli’s brightest start to a season. Arteta and Edu have shown that they are going to be shrewd when it comes to contract situations and only players who have earned it should get it. Tomi/ my boy Saliba and others have not done half of what Saka has done consistently since he transitioned to the first team.

We are talking about an England regular and first 11, finalist in the Euros with numerous individual accolades to go with his skill set, play making abilities, versatility and availability. This isn’t the time to rob Peter to pay pay Paul. There is absolutely no cause for concern when it comes to rebound because every player will be graded based off performance and value.

The last thing we want to do is drag this contract and make Saka disgruntled because the other players in the locker room know this is the most valuable player on the roster and are keenly monitoring how you are treating him. If you decide to treat your most valuable player's contract situation with levity, be rest assured that the other young players will listen to the noise outside and you would have successfully sabotaged our season. Arteta knows Saka almost single handedly saved his job despite running him to the ground.

I don’t think u understand the effect of having disgruntled employees who feel underpaid in an organization.

Let me tell u, the moment an employee sees his contemporaries who aren’t as important as he his in his work place at theirs earning way higher salaries ; such employee will be looking for ways to change jobs .

You can’t even blame the employee for not being loyal at that point cos he has a right to seek for higher pay elsewhere .

Saka has earned the right to get an improved contract in that region of 200k in this inflated market ; when the time comes for Jesus to get an improved contract it will be the work of his agent to negotiate whatever his services are worth at that time .

Raphael Onyedika is not bad as Party assistant

I understand Chelsea are monitoring G. Martinelli. They can monitor all they want like evil spirit, we are not selling

Arsenal have also commenced contract extension conversations with my boy Saliba

As we are aware Saka the GOAT has indicated he wants 200K/ Wk with a UCL qualification clause. Anybody remember last season when I said this was going to be a big consideration for Saka before he signs? Well, here we are!

Personally, I don't like contract negotiations during the season. I'd rather during the offseason because they can become a huge distraction for the player and the team during the season. I also understand Pep and Klopp are closely monitoring Saka's contract situation.

I hope we can resolve Saka/ Saliba's contracts before the WC. I hate when players leave their clubs for National team assignments with unresolved contract issues. A lot that is out of our control happen when players are with their national teams.

Well, Valid and fair reasons which I understand now. I just hope Saka signs that contract. It'll be so sad to go back to Wenger years where our best players are being poached by our rivals or top teams during their prime
