Arteta on when his mind turns to next season: “Now, immediately. 100 per cent. Tomorrow we have certain things we are discussing and making decisions. When I start to think about it [next season], I feel goosebumps and excitement.” #AFC

Henry most times when he gets the opportunity to criticise Arteta behaves like an hostile ex, at this point I don’t even doubt what Mo has been saying about him. Arteta isn’t the board, several clips had shown where he was crying out for a 9 He should sit his as$

My main issue with Sesko is that he’s 21. Bags of “potential” yes, but he’s very raw. He will need time but will be in an environment where the pressure is to win NOW. I guess he’ll share the load with Havertz. It’s a big call to make, this. I hope they get it right.

Ødegaard will have a huge bounce-back next season imo. Zubimendi will allow him to push up high and operate in the pockets similar to 22/23. I reckon he gets 25-30 G/A, a hugely productive season and return to form. I think our football in general will return closer to 22/23.

Doing this with Mikel Merino upfront after you already whitewashed Real Madrid 5-1? Arteta is one of the very best in the World and missing out on a major trophy the last 3 years doesn’t change that absolute FACT. Elite coach. Tier 1.

Inzaghi another guy they said was better than Arteta because he won a title in an inferior league. Mind-boggling how Arteta’s reputation would be entirely different if he was coaching in Italy or Spain. Instead he had to fight 115 charges. I’m so grateful he’s our manager.

🇸🇴⚽ Mogadishu Stadium has been back in use for a few years—but this moment was different. 20,000 fans. Drums, flags and African football legends. Eto’o, Okocha & Adebayor on the pitch—not just to entertain, but to inspire, says Mohamed Salad 📸 SONNA

I like Mbuemo but he was never going to come here with Saka occupying his preferred spot. The window just opened and there are so many LW possibilities: Rodrygo, Nico Williams, Leao, Gittens, Barcola. Some more realistic than others. A lot can change, it’s a long summer.

I’ll never understand why people get so emotionally invested in the transfer window. It makes no difference to me if Arsenal get players now or in 4 weeks. Who cares? As long as they’re taking part in pre-season. Arsenal will spend a LOT of money this summer. Relax.

They laughed at me when I said just blow the bag on Isak. Newcastle won’t say no to £150m. It’s a helluva lot of money. Isak + Zubimendi gives us a better shot at PL/UCL vs spreading out the money on whatever else is out there. Quality over quantity.

Arsenal not competing at all when the likes of Wirtz and Cherki are on the market shows me they have the utmost confidence in Nwaneri and Dowman becoming superstars. It also removes any excuse not to address the front 3 this summer. They MUST go BIG at LW and CF. Zero excuses.

If I had to guess now, this would be our team first game of the season: Raya Timber Saliba Gabriel Lewis-Skelly Zubimendi Rice Ødegaard Saka Havertz Rodrygo Bench: Sesko, Martinelli, Calafiori, Partey, Merino, White, Nwaneri, Kiwior, Kepa.

They won the league and are spending 150m on one player but Arsenal shouldn’t spend 150 on Isak who is the only striker guaranteed to be a hit. Okay man. The ambitious move this summer for Arsenal is obvious. Funny how ambition disappears the minute UCL football is regular.

Talking about Wirtz’ price tag and value for money is pure jealousy. We know the market is inflated so who gives a shit? They got one of the best players in Europe and he’s still only 22. That’s the bottom line at the end of the day. He makes them much, much better.

Arsenal got 89 points with Martinelli/Trossard. This idea that “we need to spread the money out” is absolute nonsense when your coach is as good as Arteta. We need ELITE talent. Isak + Zubimendi gives us a better chance to win PL than 3-4 players. Sesko/Gyok are not Isak level.

Tough start to the season but we do get other perks: only 1 away game from Jan-May against the Top 7 from last season - Man City - and that game also happens to be the only time we leave London in April and May, eliminating travel fatigue for the entire run-in. Not bad at all.

Looks like we have a real chance with Rodrygo. Unless he’s happy to just be there, I don’t see how his position in Madrid is tenable? At Arsenal he will be platformed in his best position and take the #10 shirt. It’s rare a talent like that becomes available. Get it done.
