🚨🧤 Arsenal make Kepa top target for GK position. With Garcia pursuit over, #AFC see opportunity to add GK w/ PL+CL exp for a £5m fee. Kepa expected to have options but not discounting AFC despite Raya being established as No 1. For @theathleticfc.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/athletic/625...

Female players have really been streets ahead of the men in terms of advocating for their own well-being. I hope the men learn to follow suit soon, things are getting out of control.

My solution? Gyökeres → Atlético J. Alvarez → Arsenal

I stand by this. Since then Ekitike also dropped a clanger vs Spurs. I’d much rather Šeško, Gyokeres or Watkins than Ekitike this summer.

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

You can see Rice isn’t fit. Let’s try MLS left 8 and Calafiori LB second half

This week’s column is about ‘the Mandela effect’ of Arteta press conference quotes and the (in my view) seismic gap between what people seem to think he has said versus what he actually says (that I am too neurotic to let go of) and why it exists👇🏻🔴⚪️

I think we need a new format/rules for an award recognizing rising PL players. Having guys with 111 (Elanga), 89 (Pedro), 87 (Palmer) and 99 PL appearances (Saliba) up for what's ostensibly an award meant to nominate rising talent feels a little icky

Arsenal have managed to have Havertz, Saka, Ødegaard all on the pitch for 45+ minutes of just eight league games this season. Five wins, three draws makes it 2.25 points per game compared to the 1.79 ppg in the other 28 league games. They also all started the 5-1 win in Lisbon.

+1. As I keep saying, Ten Hag won 2 in 2. Ange or Amorim is about to win one and neither are doing “a good job.” Trophies can escalate a campaign but there are only two that have the power to validate a campaign

If you blame Arteta for that result you are insane. He begged for players in Jan and the club failed him. He coached us to a thrashing over Real Madrid. He coached this team to outplay PSG for this tie. The players just didn't take the chances.

I hope the squad stays together, we get a CDM and CF, then Arteta can push for the titles he deserves. The winning window is small, we need to strike whilst the opportunity is there. This season has made me believe in Arteta more than ever. The titles will come if the boys stick together The Arsenal

Calafiori with an excellent cameo so far

Saka gets what he deserves at least! World class talent
