We are saying same thing, thought u were praising Partey for the second goal reason I said he ain’t on the pitch.

I swear I no high I know what I’m saying.

Jencejyde:
Thomas is too much levels above any of our current midfielders. Esr keeps developing and now begining to understand that one touch footie especially in tight conditions allows you to transition faster. The pass from partey to auba for that goal would never happen if that was xhaka in possession.

The guys vision passing quality weight of pass is just class. Reminds me of when we had Santi. I would not mind the scouts giving us Bissouma. Haven't seen him play for Brighton recently but I would give away anyone in that midfield bar partey to get him or ingwisha of Fullham.

Those boys sabi , very comfortable on the ball and know when to turn .

Jodera:
Unfortunately. It seems na him last power he used last season... We, we were thinking he's just getting started.

Mehn, it'll be bad getting another ozil-like situation oo.

kokanepyramid:
That’s what I’m trying to tell Sod09, it’s a win win for both sides. The free agent would make Arsenal unable to sell him for a fee despite still having a contract, this puts him in a better wage negotiation with his next club. This was similar to what United did with Sanchez But the stingy board wanted to eat their cake and have it.

Roland17:
Contractually there was nothing Arsenal could have done as far as taking him to court. Ozil was not refusing to play na? He did not down tools! The last time I checked he was training every week with the team and participating in all team activities but the club through Arteta chose not to register him for any competition, so how was it his fault?

He had a contract that was binding between both parties and the issue of a real trade never came up until now. Ozil needed to make an important statement with the way he was treated because of his political stance. Did Arsenal offer him to any club and he refused? Arsenal negotiated the contract with him and now he is supposed to force a move away from Arsenal because he has been vilified by the owners and coaches? Come on man! We did Ozil wrong in my books! There is no justification for this. There is absolutely nothing wrong for him to choose to sit and enjoy the last 6 months of a 350K/ Week salary that was negotiated. He did not down tools.

Rather than being appreciated for his decision we have continued to vilify him even on this thread. The deal could have happened in the summer but which club presented any offer? How many clubs can afford his wage? Was he offered and refused? Here we are, he chose to terminate the contract, yet, he is still burdened with the responsibilities of the failures associated with the bad ending.

Arsenal is struggling mightily under Arteta on and off the field but we can not focus on football and make the right decisions knowing fully well that this team is lacking an AM. Instead with no plans to recruit a decent AM because of our financial situation, we freeze Ozil, take months, injuries and COVID to start playing ESR, splash money on Willian/ Renew contracts of players who have no business donning the crest and exhibiting a distasteful and despicable level of mediocrity is managing the locker room yet Ozil is still the main problem.

I will continue to Stan Ozil, this step he took shows he is a class act because he could have continued to sit and enjoy his money.

Roland17:
I am very sad it ended this way.. By far one of the most magical players I have seen in creating assists especially around the final third..His signing brought back some star power to Arsenal and he delivered some trophies.

He was treated poorly and with disrespect but he has shown maturity and genuine love for the Club by terminating his contract because he easily could have continued to hold the club hostage with his wages or have Arsenal pay part of it at another club but I am glad he has done otherwise.

I will always Stan Ozil no matter what anyone thinks, I think everyone already knows that here..

Now, watch Arsenal waste that money on extending Willian’s/ Luiz or Xhaka’s contract. Watch Arsenal sign a useless Chelsea player with that money.

Fkhalifa:
Arsenal's job is too big and difficult for Arterta, Atimes I pity the lad.

I remember some fans asking Arterta to play the new G.keeper Runnarson, only for it to back fire.

BlueRayDick:
Yes, I say it with my full chest ; I want FA cup more than top 6 finish. Obviously we can't make top 4, but what is the essence of top 6 when u are still trophyless?

Those of us that lived during the Wenger Trophyless Era knows what it means to actually be Trophyless.

U don't sign a rookie manager with a very economical budget as a broke club and expect Ur manager to perform miracle

kokanepyramid:
Poverty is an organised crime, I am trying not to imagine how we will play if the guy get's injured. from the look of things it is just a matter of when

Jodera:
Are you kidding me right now?

Before ystdy match, we're 9points away from 4th with almost half the season gone. If it was even Europa sef, I would agree, but not Fvckin fa cup we don't really need. How can he put up a defeatist mindset just halfway the season gone wen top 4 is still salvageable?

I just hope that's your thoughts and not his... Cos if that's his thought, then we're really heading to mediocrity as a club.

Jodera:
Yeah.. Just saw earlier this morning he was injured and I said it here.

But that still tells you the stupid decision he made starting KT in that match. Now it has backfired

kokanepyramid:
Lol, this was my fear spy360 we still need an AM badly this January

Jodera:
Arteta wanted to rest Tierney but this is never the match to rest him.

I don't know why he used Tierney against Newcastle wen he could have been rested in that match.

This is just nonsense and our left attack is dead cos of that

Spy360:
Team Arteta must use to beat Crystal Palace


Auba............. Laca.............. Saka
....................... ESR.......................
......... Xhaka...............Partey........
Tierney... Gabriel... Luiz... Bellerin
....................... Leno......................

Subs: Macey, Mari, Holding, Soares, AMN*, Ceballos, Elneny*, Willian, Nketiah, Balogun, Pepe*, Nelson

Jodera:
I think partey will come from bench. (Elneny)

Also, I think it'll be Mari and Luiz Manning the Cb spots

Aside that, all other players are straight forward

MSGAMBLE9:
Opinion may differ, buh if you think the average players will just dissappear with the current club budget... From Fabregas to Ramsey to Ceballos or From Gilberto to Song to Xhaka is a reflection of their current standing. Use the best of your Lot.

If you think average player will just dissappear for marquee signing...


I will say keep dreaming.

kokanepyramid:
Which means we are saying same thing, we can’t be giving the club the stick for being stingy, buying average players and also sticking with them and on the other hand we go ahead propping players like Guen who are equally average. The players are not playing for free and stop making it seem they are doing Arsenal a favour by getting on the pitch. It’s a symbiotic relationship bro.

We should be thinking of offloading players like Elneny and Xhaka for better players and not someone like Guen that’s my point. We need fresh air in that midfield.

KingAlayinde:
ehen! oya tell me more about it cos I need to be safe

kokanepyramid:
Emery’s first season Guen wasn’t a regular in the best spell of that season. He was coming in from bench at best. Immediately the likes of Ramsey and co bagged injuries 2nd half of that season and Guen became a starter that was the beginning of the end for Emery go watch that season well.

There’s nothing spectacular about Guen at Arsenal at least. We can’t be complaining about average players and be propping Guen as a replacement. And don’t bring his age to the mix Saka , Smith and Martinelli are younger and pulling their weight.

I am sure if we put the likes of Saka and Martinelli on the market for a permanent transfer or a loan move, top Cubs will want to snap them up. For all the Guen hype he had to settle for a loan move to a bottom half club in Bundeliga.

Arsenal is not a player building organization, look at what we got despite all the patience with Walcott, the last time he faced us he scored with a grin on his face. He didn’t remember the patience we had, look at Giroud in the Europa final against us too, someone Wenger should have binned teytey. These players should contribute effectively or move on please. We can’t be building players at the detriment of results.

MSGAMBLE9:
On Ramsey issue, yes he was injured buh wen he came back toward feb. ending he was struggling for gametime that the issue was a reoccurring question for Emery's pre & post match conference and that is part the reason (couple with wage palava) the club felt he was replaceable. Yeah, MG was that good then.

It not about building players, MG is a "better average player" than Elneny. Big teams with bigger ambitions like Atlectico, Bayern, dortmund and PSG were credited with insterest buh covid and other position priortisation crippled their finance.


No sane manager would pick ME over MG.

Worldliness:
Zero practically means nothing.

So nothing 1 time, nothing 2 times and nothing 1000 times 0r 1million times is still equal to nothing.

Eg) if i dont have 1 naira, if you ask me for 1 naira for 1 time or even 100 times, i still dont have any. that is it.

thanks God me I no kuku have friends again, except my siblings

mostob:
It'll be very tough. And the match will be played at their home.
