Agreed.

Frimpong to Liverpool is confirmed no? There’s been pre-agreed deals for Chelsea too.
Stuff is definitely happening, but I’m too old to lose my shit over transfers these days.
Unless they’re coming to Arsenal of course.

Subscribed. Can’t believe I didn’t do it sooner, sorry! But glad to be here.

If reports are true.
This is what it all hangs on isn’t it. No one knows. So helplessly speculating helps no one, not the victims, nor the accuser.

It really is about fact. That’s the way the law works, to establish truth and fact.
Also, I’m not arguing for him to get a new contract. I’m suggesting that someone proven innocent in court, or with charges dropped deserves a fair chance at continuing their career as normal.

Aha finally someone who can give us all the inside scoop on what evidence, what’s going on and what the police are doing about it.
Thank the lord for you. Tell me more.

Didn’t Benjamin Mendy have 7?
It’s not a numbers game. It’s about fact.

I’m not trying to silence anyone. Talk freely but be careful, incorrect information, however well meant can have serious consequences when it comes to criminal convictions.

I’m not. I’m saying no evidence either way means I have an open, unbiased mind.
Jumping to conclusions helps no one.

If we are talking about the same player, he’s been the most available, most consistent he’s ever been in the shirt.
Whether his performances are good enough in your eyes is subjective. If Arteta didn’t value his contribution he wouldn’t play.
This is undoubtedly fact.

Oh gosh. Of course. 👏👏

I’m not defending him because as yet, I have no evidence either way.
I’m just suggesting online discourse without evidence isn’t helpful.
Your reaction to my post is also unnecessary. No need to try and cause a pile on. It’s puerile and childish.

If he is innocent however, then his performances have deserved it no?
Guilty or not, no charges have been brought against him.
I had a disgruntled ex-employee level accusations at my staff which I knew to be patently untrue but still had to investigate. Didn’t mean they were guilty.

Or I don’t know, but I’ll do the appropriate research and get all the facts before I tell you my opinion.
Guilty, I want him nowhere near my club, innocent and he deserves to be.
Arsenal are a smart club and they understand the optics. He’s not been charged and they must have an idea on it.

He’s just a vile man.

Thanks for all your efforts over the season pal. Great work and it’s appreciated!

I’d love him to stay. Such a great pro. A great signing for the club.

I really, really rate him. His workrate, physicality, finishing screams come get me Arteta.
If I had Mikel's email I'd be spamming him to sign Mbuemo.
Unlikely to be cheap, but he's a proven quantity and that's got its own value.

Apologies, I meant investigation.

Gooners love trying to repurpose a defender don’t we?
With regards to the extension, would think the club must have some assurance that the charges will be dropped.

Super solid. He was a brick wall.
This period without Big Gabi has shown us what an absolute diamond he is.
He is so good, I think we will find it tough to keep him. He deserves to play.

We got to the quarters to play Madrid first.
We got to the semi’s in the league cup.
We are currently second in the league and likely to stay there.
Trophies aren’t given out like sweets and with the challenging season we’ve had, I think it’s quite incredible how well we have done.

With everything that this team has achieved this season, this statement from you is simply bonkers.

I saw them in Cologne on Tuesday. They were exceptionally good.
.. and I live in Wigan, yet I’ve never seen them here. Mental.

If we don’t bring in Nypan. Then that’s a direction of travel I’d like.
I don’t think we could bring in Nypan and Guler and give them the required mins

That’s what I’m asking. I’ve used the eye test to look at positioning, style of play, game impact. Who, stat wise, matches up to Arteta at 30 odd years old.
That is interesting to me because I don’t think we really appreciated how good and how crucial he was.
comment in response to

If you had to compare him to a current player. Who would it be?
I actually went straight to Zubimendi.
Thoughts?

Felt KT was a real positive. In a position where we don’t lack depth, he added it.
Almost sums up our season.

Jorgi is so underused in this team. Such a talented player.

Also, Emery has won one single league title in his career, with PSG. Hardly a serial winner.

Whether he wanted him or not, he wanted a winger and we spent 76million on Pepe.
He was backed. Whether it was what he wanted is one thing, but the club did finance players for him.
Now I’m going to mute you because you’re boring me. Enjoy screaming at the moon.

Wrong. Emery didn’t get us to a FA Cup final and win it. Emery didn’t win us a Community Shield.
He didn’t win anything. He blew it. That’s why he got fired. Arteta has shown continuing growth from this team. To say any different is to ignore all the stats out there.

Not sure you can plan to lose 4 first team forwards at one time.
You’d need a squad of 30 players. Which you can’t have.

No taking anything personal pal. Just wierd you waited til a loss to clap back on a thread.
I don’t agree with your assessment, I think it’s poorly researched. Arteta has already won us trophies.
Whether you like them or not, they exist. Sorry to bust your narrative.
