Brilliant news š hopefully Ethan next

second season in a row... sigh. In fairness, just looked at Liverpool's start and that's far from easy

Would routinely change the ITK info to pretend he was always right. I miss the gold old days of Twitter š

Do you remember when some bloke (could have been Dial Square) just kept making up accounts on Twitter pretending to be ITK. I think there was an account called The Arsenal Horse or something insane. Good times.

Of course, but Iām saying thereās a difference between Fabrizio (and the like) saying EXCLUSIVE and BREAKING every 5 seconds which is largely speculation/click bait and that piece in The Athletic one. Itās well informed journalism.

The whole Brailsford thing had huge Clive Woodward at Southampton vibes

With most titles, yes. I agree. But journalists like Ornstein and Mokbel are extremely well informed when it comes to the Arsenal. Same now with Gunnerblog. They donāt put out shit. If they are reporting it, it will have been well sourced/briefed.

It's early obvs, but I agree with you. Last summer it was "Arteta has killed the leaks, that's why there's no news. Wait for the bomba!" Shock, there was none. The Athletic are pretty spot on with their reporting on us, so i'd be surpised if there's a big shock beyond the names mentioned.

Thoroughly underwhelming. The Athletic are usually correct when it comes to our transfer plans and their reporting is that its striker as the no.1 focus with a winger as the luxury option. Add that to the fact it seems Trossard is extending. For all Mikel and Joshās talk, this is pretty meh.

He seems like a really good signing to me. Prem proven, prime age, perfect for the inside right forward. I get their need for a midfielder seems more pressing, but are we trying to find fault because itās United? Look at the other clubs interestedā¦

Itās shit watching rivals win things, I get it. But I would trade 50 league cups for 1 UCL or another league title. We havenāt been this close since 07/08 like you say. People have short memories because before Mikel we were so bad. Some of the stuff he does frustrates me, but Iām sticking with him.

Brilliant manager Howe. Remember last season when he went out in the UCL group stages and bombed in the league, whilst Arsenal nearly won it and got to the quarters. He only had players like Isak, Gordon, Bruno etc at his disposal

Michael, I hate to break it to you, but I think you might be the dense one

āThe talent we haveā which managed attracted and nurtured that talent? What an insane thing to say. Please donāt be comparing Arteta with Howe
comment in response to
post
Yep. I love Thierry, but when we were shit there was not a single peep from him. Then he rocks up to the Emirates in a vintage top when things were iffy.
From a club legend, those comments felt like a clear attempt to throw Mikel under the bus. Didnāt like it one bit.

post
Agree on this. I donāt think thereās much love lost between him and Mikel. Their interactions arenāt exactly friendly on CBS and he also made that comment about Unai being a genius who would have won something at Arsenal, given more time. Wouldnāt surprise me if he wanted the job post Mikelā¦

Iām glad someone else has seen this. As someone who played at a decent level, players like that used to drive me mad. Look at the response to his goal yesterday, no one goes over to him. That wonāt cut it at top level - heāll get a bollocking very quickly.

Iāve seen some posts of people losing their heads already. If, by the end of the summer we havenāt done what we need to do, fair enough. I canāt get on board with all the negativity already though.

Eh?

Talk of ceilings and floors is literally the biggest load of bollocks in football. Apparently Arsenal raised the floor last summer? Did they fuck

Spurs are an annoyance and there will be āchampions of Europeā nonsense, but letās be honest - theyāll always be shit. Having to suffer United, Fergie, Neville, Scholes etc for both my childhood and adult years, this is genuinely delicious to watch. Amorim is Ratcliffeās man, too. Brilliant.
comment in response to
post
Sums up how Iām feeling. Fuck Spurs and that, but meh. When they were genuinely good and we were shit but won some cups itās all we clung onto knowing deep down it hurt seeing them as a better side. Weāll obviously get shit on social but not arsed by this.

Enjoyed that

a "striker" doesn't just fix it. Big summer for Mikel - think we need a slightly different way of playing alongside some new forwards. It can't be all control, control, control.
comment in response to
post
Yeah, really good. I also think as a 3rd/4th option some of your better traits have to be both availability and temperament. Tomiyasu is probably a better player, but never fit. Kiwior is always there when called on. If thereās a player to be sold this summer itās Tomi, not Kiwior.

Haha, I was just thinking that. Good to hear the great man Clive speak anyway

Mikel tonight, Wrighty two seasons ago. I went last season and got fuck all. Not fair š
comment in response to
post
I know itās Spurs and weāll get loads of shit, but medium-long term I think itās better if United donāt win it. CL will help supercharge that project. Spurs arenāt a serious club and are so far from being CL level. May even persuade them to keep Ange.

Exactly. Reads like a rehash of last summerās failed business. Whereās the fresh thinking?
comment in response to

I've found it unbearable this season. After the PSG loss, I had a scroll on Threads (wish I hadn't) and it was just post after post of big accounts trolling Arsenal. Football fandom has shifted from celebrating your team to hate watching, trolling and rage baiting.

Itās truly dire. Can close my eyes and tell you which player is going to be in which spot and play which pass. Nothing new. Same thing over and over and over again.

2029 is insane. Hopefully agent talk.

Merch drop and Ornstein bomba. War chest next. Blimey.

Think there was one right at the end when there was an opp for a quick one, but we waited for him to do some pathetic half arsed throw to no one. Got no time for him, want him gone

Got to say, but the end I was fuming at them. Partey was barely getting them onto the pitch ffs

January was unforgivable. As was the summer. Club let down this set of players.
comment in response to

Completely agree. The pile on again tonight. Only our third ever European Cup semi ffs. And thatās after being out of it for so long. I do have concerns if weāll get over the line and I think thatās natural, but no way am I calling for his head after this

Fucking gutting isnāt it. Never happening
