lol..

What's funny?



We will soon sign either Locatelli, Aouar or Neves. So cool down.

ndidibabe:
Is it true that Arsenal signed Lokoja?

Yes, he is our new starboy

Taollance:
The price is without the installation, 300 per sqm for installations..

Can you supply to Owerri?

Naija pastors learnt from American pastors o. They just added Naija flavour to it.

Naija flavour doesn't sound right.

daveP:
I doubt it will be problem. Especially as Saka still has the left for himself.

As Roland and Afrodo.c rightly said, shunting Saka upandan will hamper his progress.Ill prefer he sticks to that LW unless injury affects the balance of the team. He with Pepe there is no sin. It's our luck plus our 72m.

daveP:
ESR and Martinelli Season. NP may be all fiery this new season. Terrain-Sworn!!

Pepe has Saka to compete with. Harsh?

Our second eleven my look like...

Martinelli.......... Laca.......... Pepe
........................ Willock...................
............... Lokonga.. AMN...............
Tavares.. Gabriel... Holding.. Cedric
...................... Ramsdale......................

with the likes of Chambers, Balogun, Azeez, Okonkwo, and Francis making up the squad.

While we look to offload Kolasinac, Nketiah, Elneny, Xhaka, and Bellerin.

Nelson can go on loan, dude should come good with more playing time.

Jodera:
I swear...Esp Knowing who our club is.

Them fit no buy any correct signing again not to talk of two

Let's be calming down till the TW is over. Let's just be warming up our thunders. Amadioha will not disappoint me.

daveP:
To me, Leno don go abeg. Wished Martinez or Wojiech was brought back. Onana deal still in the wind. Haven't heard any progress on that end.

Are we looking to sell him? Ryan isn't the main man for me.

Jodera:


If you see as I hate this White deal eh.

And you fit shock, Arteta fit bench the guy during the season sef

White is a good player no doubt, and he is young, experienced, good passer and versatile too.

Na the 50m dey vex you?

Our desired eleven...


ESR.............. Auba............. Saka
................. Maddison...................
.... Locatelli................ Partey.......
Tierney... Mari .... White... Aarons
...................... Leno.......................


We go badt o

Jodera:
Shey na here we dey? Let us see if they'll get at least 2 out of that 3

My dry thunder is ready.

Jodera:
Lol... It's not about having the good player, it's about not getting our priorities right.

It's just like you having an injury on your leg that's affecting you and having money to treat it. Instead of treating it you went to buy perfume and fine clothes. Then start telling people to forget it, that after all you're looking good? While looking good is not bad, but at that instance, is that the priority? No!!

We're not lacking in Cbs at all, both left footed and right footed Cbs who can all do a good job. Using 50m to buy another cb is not logical knowing that we have so many crucial options to sort out first and urgently.

That to me is waste of 50m.

Even if na peak van dijk we buy for 50m presently, I'll still criticize the deal, how much more an Unknown White.

I modified my posts to accommodate your opinion.

I expect Kroenke to spend up to £200m this summer to redeem his soul.

So far he has spent about 75m so we still have about 125m on at least four players.

1. Locatelli - 34m
2. Aouar - 25m
3. Aarons - 25m


with more to spare for Maddison and etc.

Jodera:
I tell you.
Just go waste 50m

Forget about the money. We have a good player, that's what matters to me right now. After all it's not my money.

The time I will swear thunder upon their souls would be if they claim that lack of money made them not to sign at least an AM, CM, and RB.

Jodera:
With Arteta as coach is not even up to 70% if those players come.

Well, keep believing bro

Let's see what Arteta can do with a good squad. Besides, he only has till October to make us contenders, so even if he messes up at least we still have a good squad for the new coach to rev things up. Win-Win.

afrodoc2:
It would be interesting to see if Saka still gets academy prospect treatment after starting for England in an international final.

That guy is our version of 90m like Jadon Sancho.

Thunder will fire Arteta 5times if he treats him like an ordinary player, and 10times if he treats him like an academy player.

afrodoc2:
Is that Ben White that good?

50m for an unproven defender in COVID season is a lot of money o.

That's why Abraham deal looks good as our board seems to want to be extravagant this TW.

Roland17:
Tammy would be a dangerous gamble especially under our Spanish Khadiri Ikhana! He would be left isolated especially since he is unable to create anything for himself! Have you watched Auba/ Lacazette lately? Now imagine Tammy playing under that kind of “Haram” style!
Abeg, we get Martinelli and Balogun for there.. I would rather take my chances with dem.

I admit.

Let's give Balogun, Nketiah and Martinelli their chance.

Jodera:
Exactly, if spy had initially said DCL, I wouldn't have mind, but not Tammy Abraham abeg

Lol...

Jodera:
One another note...
If to say braithwaite and Jimenez young sef. This are the kind of strikers I would have said we should look out for and tempt.

But all in all, I believe good strikers are in Europe, how much more South America. Seems most scouts are just lazy or clubs don't just wanna depend on scouts again

You know PL experience matters to reduce acclimation time. Check out Timo Werner na. How much did Chelsea pay self?

Jodera:
Money makes anyone available boss.
If we drop 50-55m for DCL, dem fit budge. And if we increase his salary to 110-120k, I tell you, that deal might be good as a done deal

Exactly. I think he will come between 55-60m. But to be honest I think Abraham can still improve which makes him a bargain for 30m. Bros this guy has been top scorer for Chelsea for the past two seasons. Early last season he was going to golden boot o. Just that Tuchel doesn't like him. I think his morale dropped somehow. If Chelsea are hawking him, it's a good time to take a calculated risk.

afrodoc2:
As a United fan I hope you guys do just that. However the better move would be to add more to that money and buy Calvert-Lewin. He is the player Tammy Abraham would like to be.

I'll take Calvert-Lewin over Abraham any day. But then he isn't available. If Chelsea demands anything more than 30m then it's a risk too far. But below that is worth trying. After all we are paying 50m for Ben White.

Roland17:
W ...It is one thing to sound intelligent during pressers, it’s another thing to implement or put to practice what is deemed intelligent. This is the worst coaching I have seen..

Harsh words.

Saliba too cannot be totally absolved of all blames.

chrisooblog:
Hi everyone. Anything new on Saliba?

Anytime I remember we let Martinez go and kept Leno

Never been so unsure about the direction of the club as now. Something dramatic has to change soon whether in the coaching or ownership department for Arsenal to move forward.

Ben White deal is close. All agreement made and medicals fixed.

Sassuolo has accepted Arsenal's bid for Locatelli.

It's a good news but i will never accept that police is my friend even if they continue this way.

Able professionals, What's your opinion on pvc floor tiles.
Thanks

Jodera:
Thank God you're seeing my point. So if he's not so much better than balogun(potentially), why drop 25m for him when we can have it free with balogun. Aside the 25m, his wages will be around 80-100k or Even more. All these things is why I'm against his signing, cos if he flops, trust arsenal to sell him for €5-15m. Thus another loss.

To be sincere, we don't need him. Let's just use that time to develop balogun.

And as for strikers... Strikers dey world. It mustn't be world class, but striker that have good potentials in all these south American leagues. Mk dem go all these south American leagues go bring correct striker from 20-24yrs abeg

Valid points.

Jodera:
Meanwhile, our home Jersey dope sha.

I tell you...

Jodera:
Lol... I just want to say you've not watched Abraham keenly that's why you're making all these assumptions. Well, it's your opinion so I respect it.

But my own opinion is, instead of wasting 25-30m on Abraham who we can be so frustrated with and can sell if possible, why not wait and add it to get a better and proper striker. Being 23 and having EPL experience doesn't count if the player isn't good enough.
And to me, with what I outlined, he's not good enough to be in our squad (if we want to improve). I look at a player's trait and not the kind of club he is(weda his club promote youngsters or not)

That's my take

You are right on adding money and getting a better striker instead. But which top striker will join Arsenal? Chelsea wants to offload him so they can get Harland. Apart from Harland which young top striker remain?

I tell you, 25m for Abraham is similar to giving Balogun a pro contract. They are all in the same level/category- potentials. In fact Abraham has better prospects than Balogun. If he fails, we can offload him with his age.

He is not my choice of striker but if Arteta wants him, I'd say for less than 30m- if so no problem. Even if we don't get him, next summer we will need a striker when Lacazette leaves and Aubameyang is old. Then we will have to spend.

Jodera:
if you look at all those players, you'll see that most aren't given chances to perform. If you watch their play, you'll see shades of potential in them.

Lemme use salah as example, when he was at Chelsea, he is fast, he can beat his man but he wasn't a prolific goal scorer. Now you'll know this one have shades of potential in him that can be nurtured based on that.

But I just told you that of Tammy Abraham of what he probably doesn't do or have. If he's not good aerially, or not fast, how do you imbibe that in him?

If you'd said we should go for Hudson odoi(in terms of potential talent) I can agree with you. Not Abraham abeg.


Note:... I've watched Abraham mostly during lampard first season as coach and all his negative attributes, I saw them, aside his goals (I'm not making them up)

I implore on any truthful Chelsea fan to prove me wrong if what I outlined about him isn't true

I am not doubting you neither am I saying he is Harry Kane or that we should use Ben White's money to buy him. I said if Chelsea can agree to a fee of 25-30m then it isn't bad for such a striker who is 23, has played for England and has PL experience and has been Chelsea's top scorer for the past two seasons = facts.

Forget all your doubts, if Abraham joins Leeds, Aston Villa or Everton where he will be guaranteed game time, we will be pricing him 50m next season. I remember Nigeria was begging him to play for us instead of England. Chelsea is a bad place to rate young players. Players like Odoi or Gilmour would have blown since.

Jodera:
Ah... Bros. He's that bad oo. Forget his goals statically. If na before sef wey we dey create chances upon chances, we fit manage am. Not to talk of now that we hardly create 2 chances per match.

You no even notice say fred.oo(a known arsenal troll) no disagree with kod.ded about the Tammy deal?

I also know that Chelsea is a bad place for young players to thrive see Salah, KDB, Lukaku, Moses, and more recently Hoddoi, Ziyech and Pulisic.

I see potentials in Abraham if he moves else where. That's me.
