Eddie delivers.

by .

Unai Emery pulled a magic trick out of his hat. He used the powers of youth to completely disguise that Arsenal hadn’t added a single first-team player to the squad this season and we’re three games into preseason.

Quite amazing to be having a 2012 like conversation after all the backroom upheaval to address exactly this.

Before I push on into the game. I’m also finding the strategy for moving certain players on a touch baffling. If we’re serious about selling anyone, why are we starting them on this tour? Mustafi and Jenkinson should both be getting their marching orders, but we have them stinking out the tour instead? Seems a very odd way to go about things.

Anyway, the game didn’t really tell us much about the upcoming season, other than it looks like it’s going to feel very familiar unless something very aggressive happens in the next two weeks.

Our defence seems to have honed its ability to leak good chances. Fiorentina were very poor but found ways to get in behind us time and time again. It doesn’t seem to matter what system we play, we’re a disaster. It obviously doesn’t help when you have Mustafi in the starting 11, but look, it’s not me putting him there.

My major worry is this: Emery has zero pedigree with defences. He averaged 49 goals a season at Sevilla. He took PSG from 17 goals, to 27, to 29. He couldn’t better Wenger’s tally last year, dropping 51 goals despite adding a keeper, 2 defenders and 2 defensive-minded midfielders. Where does the progression come from? Nothing in history to suggest he can change things.

Moving forward we looked interesting. Eddie had a really good game. He finished very well twice. Those chances haven’t been going in when it comes to competition time. I’m of the mind that he should go out on loan this season and see if he can work on his decision making. He needs to get some teeth. I know as fans we always lose our minds with kids on preseason, but the reality for Eddie is that Emery is not going to give him many chances this season because he has Laca and Auba… so maybe he should take the move out and force his hand in the back half of the year.

I also enjoyed seeing Willock on the scoresheet again. He really does have to be ready this season, at 19, it’s a big ask, but he does look the most ready. He’s focused, he has the physicality and he can be decisive. Let’s hope Emery doesn’t bottle it.

I also thought Gabriel looked sharp… he has a lot of pace and power. That long run he made was very exciting. It’ll be interesting to see what the club does with him. Can he cut it in the first team? A huge ask if we’re honest, but you never know… I guess it’s dependent on how badly we fuck our big signings.

I was watching with my dad. He made the point that we might as well give the kids a shot, because if it’s mistakes the manager is worried about… he’d not keep playing Mustafi and Xhaka. Let’s hope he doesn’t get consumed by the panic of his job situation and move away from his youth focus.

In other news, there’s hot talk that United are in for Auba for £62m. Arsenal fans are furious at the thought of us moving him on. I love Auba, I think he’s a joy to watch at times, however, if there’s huge money on the table for a 30-year-old, we should take it and progress the squad. As things stand, we’re finishing no higher than 5th this season… if £80m gets us Zaha and Pepe, we’re in a more solid grounding next season… we might also be able to kick this Tierney deal over the line.

Holding onto your best 30-year-olds when you’re skint isn’t progression in my opinion. Especially when they only have two years left on their deal.

Right, dine out on that my friends.

This new team need to get some deals over the line quickly.
There’s a growing sense that everyone is beating them around.

Zaha is not worth 65 million plus Nelson [on loan]

Don’t care who comes in at this stage anymore Current management has absolutely botched this transfer window A summer were targets should have been brought in by now,said players taken aboard for pre-season training to ensure proper gelling with teammates to ease their way in around the squad and have us totally prepared for the season Here we’re at the tail end of the window without nothing to look forward to except a total carry-on from the the shitfest of last season.

You’re avoiding the answer because you k ow they should have made a lot more money on the players we had to sell than we did
There was value there

How many years? How many players need to go? How much do we need to spend? How many managers will we need? How many new technical director/CEO’s/DOF’s??
Look into your crystal ball ishola

Ishola70

Well Gazidis has his paws all over the appointments of Emery, Raul and Vinnai.

This is even before we get to the later geriatric Wenger years and why Arsenal currently find themselves in the second tier competition as well as players we all know signed under Wenger current players that aren’t good enough.

A good few years to flush it all away.

Ishola70

Self-sufficiency is also hindrance.

The problem with self-sufficiency is that you have to cut your cloth to what level you are at. Good old Josh has already alluded to this in stating players on CL money playing EL in his recent interview.

Only hopes for the club to get back quicker and by that meaning get back properly is for a special sauce manager to come along which is difficult to find or change of ownership.

Batistuta

Blog of lube on here indeed today gents.

Raul and his contact book proving as clueless as predicted . July 22nd, 3 pre-season games in and yet no signing. We should be patient though as it’s gonna take the new team a while to rid us of the Wenger and Gazidis stench…. Bunch of amateurs running this football club i tell ya

I mean you’d think Wenger and Dick Law were the ones in charge if you’ve been in a coma for a while and have just woken up

Bats doesn’t see the link between Gazidis and Raul.

They are buddies and Raul’s appointment was a job for the boys one.

Any link still with Gazidis is not a good sign.

Ishola you’re placing too much emphasis on the numerous ills of the previous regime(which is well documented btw)and is ultimately clouding your judgement on the current offerings by the new sheriffs in town

Arsenal signed anyone yet? ZZZZzzzzzzz

WengerEagle

Celtic hanging us out to dry publicly re how incredibly stingy we are.

Pretty embarrassing saga as a whole, if we’re not going to stump up the 25m for him just move on to other options ffs, not like there isn’t at least half a dozen young talented LB’s out there.

NW9 gooner

The oracle has spoken, we have agreed for loan of Ceballos

NW9 gooner

I think we will get Zaha but is he worth it at this price-WE

Carts

With the imminent arrival of Cebellos (& Zaha) what formation we utilising?

NW9 gooner

WE – agreed regarding Tierney- move ahead with plan B

Dissenter

All the best to Celtic.
They can keep their boy, that way he can win a few more plastic trophies in Scotland.
We are seeking to break the transfer record and all we get is derision. The comment Lennon made to compare him with to Wan-Bissaka was ridiculous. Maybe they can keep him for United next summer.

Time to move unto other targets.

WengerEagle

Wouldn’t be so sure NW9, Palace aren’t in a position where they have to sell and they know that we’re pretty desperate. They won’t accept anything under 60m for Zaha and I doubt that we’ll go much past 40m.

I’d rather Everton Soares for 30m tbh than Zaha for 60m anyway. That extra 30 odd million gets us a quality centre half which we critically need.

WengerEagle

Carts, how are you keeping fella? What do you make of this sorry summer as of now. Looks like we’ll be bringing in 4 players max and have largely the same spine as last season, grim stuff.

Carts

Zaha for £60m is banter

In hindsight we should’ve moved for Zaha way earlier before Utd got bent over for AWB

Cesc Appeal

‘I’d rather Everton Soares for 30m tbh’

I don’t think you do get him for £30 Million.

Gremio apparently want £37 Million and they own 50% of the player.

NW9 gooner

Exactly what I have been saying. UE seems to have hard on for him

NW9 gooner

CA – the total is 37m- 50-50 for two parties

NW9 gooner

And we can negotiate also

Carts

WE

All good, bruv. I’m lurking if not commenting.

Summer I had been shite, to tell the truth. This poverty act we’re doing is embarrassing to say and hard viewing.

We still need to shift either/both of Ozil and Mhk. I suspect if we miraculously pull of Zaha, Everton, Tierney and Cebellos, we’ll see some definite departures.

Cesc Appeal

NW9

That’s not bad if that’s the case, but I will believe that when I see it.

I’ve read that 3 parties own rights to Everton Soares and that Gremio want the £37 Million for themselves.

Cesc Appeal

Suffice to say if we manage to do okay in the market the owner has done absolutely nothing to help us despite our obvious struggles.

WengerEagle

CA

So 74m including payment to the third party? Well he’s stuck in Brazil so if that’s the case.

Find that hard to believe, Brazilian clubs can’t afford to hold onto their talent and always sell to Europe. Milan bought Lucas Paqueta for 30m in January from Flamengo, Real Madrid bought Vinicius and Rodrygo for 40m a piece and they are potential Neymar level talents compared to Everton who while looks a quality player is 23, not 18.

Redtruth

These Labour MPs won’t be satisfied until Netanyahu is installed as leader

WengerEagle

Carts Yeah pretty much my exact sentiments too. For all the talk of this brave new Arsenal with cutting-edge futuristic planning and recruitment strategy we’re painfully unimaginative and myopic. We should have told Palace to fist themselves weeks ago when they quoted us 80m and moved onto other targets of which there is so many abroad. It looks like we have no alternative past Zaha though so are just stalking him all summer with the hope that Palace will eventually relent and plummet their asking price. Same for Tierney albeit on a lesser scale. Does Emery not have more than… Read more »

Been obvious for a while the Tierney deal wasn’t going to happen -despite the “I expect us to wrap this up by the end of the week” crowd assuming token negotiations would lead to quick resolution . Celtic are under zero pressure to sell and Ornstein winding them up with his silly tweets just riled them up further. Also think the £25 million valuation is bull and they are holding out for at least £5 million more. Interesting that Emery said he doesn’t want us to move to second line targets just yet. Clever move on his part. Distancing himself… Read more »

WengerEagle

Well he’s going to get stick either way Paulinho with the alternative being going into the season with Kolasinac as the first choice LB and a geriatric Monreal as back up.

Don;t see what’s wrong with going for a player that isn’t your no.1 target, even Klopp wanted Brandt over Salah if you are to believe the stories.

Paulinho

WE – It’s a problem because, as we’ve seen last Jan, Emery wanted Perisic and had to settle for lightweight crock Suarez.

With our finances and pull at the mo, our first choices are just about acceptable and then the quality levels fall of a cliff if those approaches are rebuffed.

Throwing in Nelson with the Zaha bid is a joke. Nelson is tripe and would be lucky to make their bench.

Cesc Appeal

WE

I guess we will have to see on that. I wouldn’t want to pay anything over £40 Million for him. Closer to £30 Million really.

I’m really getting pissed off that we’ve landed no full backs or starting wingers. Such a huge issue for us offensively and also defensively. City and Liverpool became different teams when they upgraded their full back areas.

Ceballos and Saliba are great, but we need to upgrade the flanks.

WengerEagle

Paulinho See why does the quality have to fall off a cliff though? You don’t think that there are other LB’s in Europe available for 20-25m? Dortmund signed Schulz for 17m and Milan signed Theo Hernandez for 20m. Both very good players. Fair enough if he has his heart set on Tierney but just pay the 25-30m they are asking for then, stop with the 17m plus add-ons contingent on us qualifying for the CL which is far from a given, as you say with CL football they are in no real dire need to sell him. There are literally… Read more »

Interesting Edu was signing autographs and someone asked about him Everton and he replied ‘Let’s see, let’s see’.

Unrelated to the comments but I really like Edu, I think we’ve made a smart hire there.

Paulinho

“Fair enough if he has his heart set on Tierney but just pay the 25-30m they are asking for then”

I don’t really think Emery has any say in whether or not we pay that extra 5 or 10 million.

Not sure about there being players better than Zaha in terms of his attributes and how badly they are needed. I see a lot of final third speedsters like Fraser and Soares, with quick feet, but I don’t see players that can drop deep and run the ball through congestion like Zaha can.

WengerEagle

CA Yeah they are but we’ll only have one of the two playing for us this season and next. Ceballos has no intention of pulling a Kovacic and making this permanent, Real Madrid prefer him as well and want to hang onto him hence choosing the loan with us over selling him to Spurs. We’re less than 3 weeks away from the season and we’ve signed no players while losing our best CM in Ramsey and a serviceable squaddie in Welbeck. Pretty much everyone agreed that we are in dire need of a LB, CB, CB, CM, LM and arguably… Read more »

Im still hopeful on the tierney deal but im cool with us walking away at this point.

Its all getting a little silly and the media/pundits constantly telling Celtic not to get “robbed” by us have put batteries in their boards back.

WengerEagle

And that was before losing Ramsey. You can add another CM to the list too.

Paulinho

WE – What do you think of Ceballos?

WengerEagle

Paulinho

Yeah I’m not blaming Emery for the standstill but he must be wondering about a plan B if Celtic don’t budge at this stage. Kolasinac as the starting LB is enough to make any supporter nauseous.

Zaha is far from the finished article himself, he’s flawed in that his end product is unremarkable and he’s a turnover machine not far removed from Alexis back in the day. A better athlete and dribbler but Alexis had far better end product and was more decisive.

For 60m+ you really can find better.

Paulinho

Still sick we’ve lost Rambo and Danny Boy. Two favourite players in the squad ffs.

WengerEagle

Paulinho Don’t know a lot about him, from the little I’ve seen he looks a good player. Technically sound, good eye for a pass, makes the right decision more often than not and he’s a busy little presser, a player that Emery will love. Will definitely add a bit of dynamism to our lethargic midfield. Poor end product for a player playing so advanced mind, Ramsey he is not. He plays pretty high up the pitch though so it still leaves us with massive gaps to plug further back and will require Toreirra to be more conservative which is a… Read more »

Paulinho

WE – Crazy thing is we can’t afford to lose Kola as it stands. His aggression in terms of getting in behind off the ball is one of our few attacking threats. His final ball is beyond terrible though. On Zaha, Emery spoke several times last season about importance of athleticism and how we need to improve in that respect. Zaha’s is pretty average in terms of productivity but he brings stellar thrust and power in the deeper areas in the pitch. With Auba and Laca up front good for nothing apart from scoring goals, his strengths compensate for their… Read more »

Paulinho

“Poor end product for a player playing so advanced mind, Ramsey he is not”

Yeah, I can see it now. Will be billed as a huge upgrade on Ramsey due to technical ability, and yet his inability to breach the box will be completely ignored.

WengerEagle

Yeah Kola has presence about him I’ll give him that. Ironic that he was renowned for being a solid defender in Germany and he literally can’t defend for toffee over here, going forward are his only redeeming features and as you say he struggles to fins the grass with his end product, never mind a player in the box.

If we could somehow acquire Bale would you do it? Fantasy stuff I know because he’s allegedly on 600k a week but imagine if Zidane just wanted shot of him that badly that they were prepared to pay half the wages.

WengerEagle

Ramsey really was an outstanding PL player. Don’t see him being as effective in Italy with Juventus, won’t be as much space to run into as they defend so much deeper and conservatively over there.

Will be interesting to see if he even starts. How do you fit Pjanic, Matuidi, Bentancur, Emre Can, Rabiot, Ramsey, Khedira into three midfield slots? Have to assume that one of Matuidi/Khedira will be sold, Pjanic and Rabiot are locks for starting spots imo so will be between Ramsey, Bentancur and Can for the third spot.

Paulinho

WE – Hard to say no to that kind of elite ability but I’ve found as the years have gone on he he’s too passive in general play and waits on the periphery, similar to Ronaldo in some respects. I loved the Bale in his earlier Spurs years that would seek out the ball more. Might be due to injuries though.

Champagne charlie

“despite the “I expect us to wrap this up by the end of the week” crowd assuming token negotiations would lead to quick resolution”

Think you’re confusing the expectation that we are competent enough to secure a deal for a player who wants to come to us, and who plays for an inferior side.

I still think we’ll do a deal for Tierney, I think it’s dependent on the Zaha transfer and how that might get structured. Then based on that we can nod to how Celtic want the fee paid.

Paulinho

WE – I would go with Pjanic deep, flanked with Rabiot and Ramsey as dual advanced mids, with Rabiot circulating the ball deeper and Ramsey making the runs off the ball. Rabiot is smooth as silk but worth noting he’s another that flatters to deceive once he gets in and around the box.

Khedira is past it,and Matuidi getting on a bit as well. I think if he stays fit he strolls into their side.

Paulinho

CC – I think a lot of our fans arrogantly thought Celtic were putting up a front for their fans and media, and behind the scenes they were telling us something different, hence all the bullshit about Boli’s signing as a cue for Tierney’s imminent arrival etc etc.

Champagne charlie

Paulinho Maybe, but I think there should be a level of expectation that we can negotiate the transfer of a player from Celtic, arrogant or not. I’ve no issue with Celtic playing hardball and wanting better terms than we’re offering, I think it’s a bigger slight against us frankly. Shows us to be pretty desperate. If anyone thought we were going to cherry pick the leagues best player for a fiver up front and staggered payments then they’re kidding themselves. But I still see us closing, because I assume the arsenal leadership is aware of how they’ll be viewed should… Read more »

Having an opinion is now being agenda driven. Some are so far Emery/Raul is the best thing since sliced bread and Wenger is the devil incarnate that they’ve lost all sense of proportion. It should be clear to everybody by now that Raul is a poor planner/organiser and an even poorer negotiator. One basic skill of any good negotiator is to be able to establish especially the other party objectives and blockers. As repeated by their president numerous times, Saint Etienne number one demand was for Saliba to spend an extra year with them. Yet we kept offering more money… Read more »

Valentin

Gareth Bale has been injured a lot playing in a slower league. I can’t see him having a full EPL season. So half his alleged wage of 600kpw for 2/3 of the season is as bad a deal than we currently have with Özil.

Valentin

Ceballos is hoping that he will be able to take over from Modric when he finally leave Real Madrid next summer.
He will have to do an exceptional season to convince Zidane who wanted him sold, but Perez wanted to keep him.
Hopefully that would play in our favour, but it could also backfires. If he is not straight away in the starting eleven, that may lead to some internal conflict.

Nelson

I can imagine that if we have a left winger, Monreal or Kola will stay back more often. They may focus on defending and will get better.

Sid

Un na nasi “We let an absolute fortune leave for free after wenger left We’ve signed Martinelli and Suarez since Sven left and we are fucking up a crucial transfer window yet again” Didn’t Wenger himself say in an interview that players going to their last year of contract and moving for free will become more and more common when asked about players like Ramsey?

Apparently Bale is moving to China despite being on a wage higher than Özil. I wonder whether it was a condition that Real Madrid pay for a part of Bale’s wages.

Leedsgunner

Time to move on from Tierney.

We’ve met their evaluation and they are not taking the proverbial.

Ricardo Rodriguez would be an excellent alternative.

Rennes being reported by several outlets of having agreed a deal with Koscielny… they have several young left backs… are they any good? Worth considering a straight swap?

Ok, so far we have gotten a guy on loan and another we can’t play next season. We also will not be going after our first choice LB.

Great.

Expectations.

Just kill Bambi and play the teenagers.

China1

Leeds realistically wages in China might be doable for them. It’s the transfer fee that I’d be curious about

Tevez was on 400k a year as far back as 2 years ago here, so there is precedent for monstrous wages for past it players

But with a 100% tax on foreign players and a government push against ‘overspending’ on transfer fees it seems more likely than not the transfer fee would have to be very small by relative standards.

Or if it’s a loan that makes a lot of sense in light of the above

China1

If Real get Pogba that’s one more CM to push Ceballos down the pecking order

Leedsgunner

Left backs? Centre backs?

Leedsgunner

Tottenham is trying to sign Sessegnon to replace Rose. The price tag is £25m.

Like I said forget Tierney, sign Sessegnon either for the money or in exchange for Chambers and be done with it. The player is younger and he wants to stay in London…
