Reminds me of Sunderland Till I Die for some reason :russ:

Successful season regardless

Yeah it's a success but if you peep it they are becoming lowered expectations FC

Last season they were in the top 4 race, bottled it the last month and then said "we weren't supposed to be here anyway."

Now this season they top the table for 90% of the season, bottle it the last month and then say "we weren't supposed to be here anyway."

Man dem moving very Spursy.

His starting 11. I hope he never gets another managers job.
You would think considering every club he has managed he has made worse by the time he has left, that would be a big possibility

But we all know he will get another plum job within a few months of this Chelsea job

City all over Chelsea with the B squad :picard:

This Cole Palmer looks like good one

Playing out of position too. Right side is where he really cooks, in a similar way to Mahrez.

Idk what we do with him, clearly a talent.

We need a lot.

Saka backup (or competition, he may lose his place if these ass performances keep up), and Reiss needs to sign

A left footed ball playing CB, and a right footed ball playing CB (if Gabriel goes down we are fukked, Kiwior looked ok spelling but he’s not good enough to push for titles from what I’ve seen. Saliba needs to sign. Holding gone.)

Two fullback signings, one on both flanks. Tierney is gone, we need to replace him and find another RB because Ben White can’t play the same amount of games there without cover or when he inevitably has to cover Saliba at CB. Tomi is not to be trusted after the injury tbh.

At least two CMs. Xhaka gone, and Partey needs help. Need athleticism in there. This is the most important part of the summer we have to get it right. I’m not sold on Rice but him and Caicedo would be great. Lavia another good signing.

Another striker. Jesus is a great player but he’s not a goal scorer. We need a different profile number 9 to be flexible in our tactics. Trossard isn’t a solution and Eddie is not there yet and maybe never will be good enough to be our starter either.

Rice is overpriced but I have little doubt in his ability to make it work at Arsenal.

Don't really have big issues with the defence apart from Holding, they might need to make it work due to opportunity cost

If you asking to compete with City? Probably Aliko Dangote to buy the club like he been talking, or for Stan Kroenke to spend cash and compete.


Squad wise:

  • Another right centerback/right back
  • At least one number eight and could be two of ESR is gone
  • A more defensive left back with top level technique—that’s not Tierney. That player doesn’t have to be Zinchenko, just comfortable enough To pass the ball well.
  • a starting holding midfielder (it will never happen, but Rice and Caceido is a dream)
  • a right wide attacker to push Saka and give him rest. He is burnt out.
  • and I would really have Balogun compete with Gabriel Jesus. I know the club has been cool with selling Balogun, but young goal scorers are rare. If he wasn’t an Arsenal player and we were linked with him, the clubs and fans would be on some “do want!”
  • lastly, Arteta gotta grow up and rotate the squad more and get better with in-game tactics. He also gotta boot out the players who quit.

Think we should keep Balogun too, would get rid of Nketiah if anything
