Yea... to think he started his managerial career with us. He is a natural.
Make he sweet talk trophies into coming to the Emirates this season sha.

ObaIgwe1:
I don't need to watch him regularly to conclude if he is good or not. I simply need to trust the judgement of his managers at the academy who know him better than all of us. If they believe he is not ready for that promotion, then he is probably not.

mostob:
Winger? You get like 3 already now and 4 if you add Jesus.

Now, let me ask you this. You're criticising Arteta on top this academy matter moment ago. Same you posted we needed at least 2 midfielders. Now what should we do with Ethan? How will Ethan get to play if we sign two midfielders in addition to the 5 we have?

mostob:
They care bro. I don't know what goes on there but most organizations frown on dating among their employees. This is to enable them stay professional.

Gucciboy:
Proposed saka deputy,Dubbery is currently balling for Brighton

ESR is gone

Chido Obi is gone

The blame is on Arteta

daveP:
Haba na. E no connect na.

Since we know how he does them, would you want to still lean into this School of thought?

If he does trust Ethan, it will shock all of us because that would mean he has finally done a big u-turn from his own norm. That's the exception hence.

Till then, we use what we see on ground to make decisions. Esp with the two we see are linked Merino and Ruiz. That's Arteta still. Not me!

For someone who was showing promising talent with the u16(where he actually scored all the goals that made round and not with u18 as being speculated by some), he was offered a contract with the u18 with playing time with u21 and also playing time and training sessions with the first team as the season goes on.

When Omari join Chelsea you were crying that we lost a gem. Now where is he? Chelsea?

Make una dey rest sometimes

mostob:
May God bless you bro. They wanted a certain amount that Arsenal was not willing to pay. They now made a U-turn to say the move was not financially motivated.

Na wetin dey divide Arsenal fans be this.

mostob:
E connect bro. If we add two more midfielders as suggested by you, e go affect Ethan.

Playing Ethan won't shock anybody. He was the one who gave the lad his debut at 16.

Chelsea got 25m for a player they got for free
Is that a good or bad business let's hear it?

daveP:
This commercial aspect is one thing many fans don't include in their assessment. It is a bad thing to just be churning out freebies while others do nothing near and still cash out awoofically.

If Arsenal can't get better chance for academy products, at least position them well to rake in funds. A dozen academy products should rake in at most 100m if we getting rid of them by leave.

mostob:
Seriously? You're suggesting a trial and error now. A lot of downside are involved. The better option is to gradually groom and introduce them.

As for your second paragraph, you're the first to report here that he was promised U21 football and now you're saying something else. How come?

Those who lament know themselves now. They said the samr thing about Walters, Hutchinson and even Patino. Na here we dey.

Leyqute:
Giving exceptional talents opportunities is not trial and error. The sensible thing for any club is to give their academy guys the best environment to reach their highest potentials. If an exceptional talent is miles ahead of his teammates, the onus lies on the club to promote him so he can improve.

That’s how to breed world beaters, not stifle their growth in the name of “gradually grooming them”



I’m only reporting on what I’ve heard and read and commenting on them. What’s clear is that the kid hasn’t been given the barest minimum of assurances. For a supposed top club, that’s really poor.

As in how hard is that
If you won't use them, then sell and make gain not lose for free
This shouldn't be hard

Leyqute:
This is the reason I’ve been arguing all along. A smart club doesn’t only develop talents for their own team. If they can’t make it at the club, they can make it elsewhere, but at a profit to the club.

He scored the goals with the Under-18s not just Under-16. It is now clear many of you don't even follow your academy but want to make assertions you don't know about. This is not speculation but what some of us followed as it happened.

daveP:
In this era where FFP hammer is real, outgoing like this should be contributing their own quota to a flexible spending habit. Simple!! Make the guy no go turn RVP wey score against us o😹
He can turn out either way but we never can decide.

iamoyindamola:
I am not even concerned if he turn good or bad
It's the money we are losing that's paining me
We have forgotten we don't spend like this during wengay and ebening
Our sponsor can decide to shut us down on funds again
Maybe that will straighten their head, I remember wengay have to sell to buy

daveP:
You sabi jare.


Player go arrive at age 8 and spend another 8years being groomed at our club with all resources and intellect of great trainers and tacticians and suddenly, such talent is leaving for free?? Habaaa. That's bad business. Arsenal need do better.

If A(trust and game time) no work, let B(good money) work even if they leave.
