No longer a banter club

by .

Well there is it my dears, part one of the transfer window is OVER (domestic).

We have landed in a great spot.

  • Saliba – For next year
  • Ceballos
  • Martinelli (This year, it would seem)
  • David Luiz
  • Nicolas Pepe
  • Kieran Tierney

What a haul!

You can whinge about some of the players if you are a real brat, not me, I am over the moon about the whole collective and I am a super brat.

I think there’s a lot of bitching about David Luiz, but for me, the only real concern is that he’s 32 years old. I’ve not seen a downturn in his ability to dominate players, but he might be more prone to injuries. He can be erratic, I’m just not sure we’re in a position to sniff at a name that has always won things with big clubs. Concern that placed in a madhouse, he’ll crumble is valid, but that’s an Emery issue. He should be a great stopgap and we’ll hopefully find a more longterm solution next summer.

HOPE HOPE HOPE

What all these players offer Emery is choice, and with that, no excuse for not making the top 4 this season. The Spaniard is a very lucky man in general, it’s hard to look at Manchester United and think they’ve moved things forward. Chelsea rocked a transfer ban and I’m not sure Frank Lampard is the full ticket. A great player, but is he an inspirational leader of men OFF the pitch? We’ll see. But they have had an awful summer and losing your best player is never an easy pill to swallow.

We’re also finishing the summer with a net spend of around… £45m.

Emery said in his press conference that he’s still looking to move on some players, you’d have to imagine the writing is on the wall for Mustafi and Elneny. The absolute madness of it all is those two could move us close to a break-even point for the window.

That is wild when you consider all the lies and nonsense we’ve been fed over the years.

Ivan Gazidis and Arsene Wenger were the most inept duo in world football. Raul and Edu are making them look like the Chuckle Brothers.

They couldn’t sell players. They couldn’t negotiate. They never had a plan b. They couldn’t run an effective operation.

We sold Koscielny for more than Ramsey, Welbeck, Jack Wilshere and Chezzer COMBINED.

We sold Alex Iwobi, a player that’s really struggled to make a dent in our pretty average first-team, for £40m. He’s our RECORD sale. We sold an ok player and made him our record sale.

We’re finally negotiating with clubs. We’ve spent very little this summer and managed to bring the best young player outside PSG to The Arsenal along with a host of really smart buys that are very unArsenal.

We finally stopped behaving like victims.

‘Buying players is harder than buying a loaf of bread’

‘The market is inflated’

‘FFP will rectify things’

‘Stan doesn’t give us enough money’

‘We simply can’t compete’

I’m so glad we’re done with all that nonsense. Raul has done more in two weeks than Ivan could muster in 10 years. He’s a beast of a hustler. He’s playing with the big boys. He’s working with the mega agents. Now we’re moving players more easily and we’re bringing in a higher calibre of talent.

We’re getting shit done and moving ahead with a clear vision.

I am absolutely shocked at the pace we’re doing this.

I’m more convinced than ever that if the manager doesn’t work, decisive action will be taken. I don’t even think top 4 is enough… underlying stats and the style of football will have to improve as well.

This season will still be bumpy, but fuck man, it feels good to have some joy back in our football lives.

This is what the game is about. Great players, big excitement and a future that doesn’t involve everyone laughing at us every summer.

What a time to be a Gooner!

1) I wasn’t even aware they were doing a film
2) if he were alive I’m positive they’d try for another sopranos season or do a film with him in

I personally would rather they left the whole thing exactly how it is. Don’t tarnish it.

It would be the same if they brought Walter White back somehow
Just leave it.

Yeah Hendrix was a bad example but I remember hearing the saying and it struck a cord that genius doesn’t last a life time, it’s just a place in time. Look at Di Niro and Pa cino now. Look at the dross Spielberg and Lucas serve up now.

Maybe it doesn’t always apply across the board as certain film makers maintain longevity but for the most part I think it’s true

I saw a trailer earlier for a new Watchmen – is it a film or a series does anyone know.

Not a usual fan of the comic book conversions but the Watchmen film was great.

Moving on i dnt know why ozil and kola are still excused over that incident. sounds like they mayb angling on a move. Knowing ozil hes probably shook and willing to go to the US for anonymity.

Nketiah possibly might be facing off against Jenkinson this Saturday… lol.

First of all, hats off to Jenkinson for a most heartfelt farewell letter to us Arsenal fans as an Arsenal fan. It was sincere and genuine and I wish him well. It was the letter that Koscielny SHOULD have written as a former captain. Jenkinson lacked in ability… but he had buckets and buckets of heart.

Nketiah please please please take this loan and own it. Score for fun, and show us all how hungry you are to play.

Leedsgunner

Hopefully Alisson will still be out injured when we face them in two weeks. Why did Alisson get pulled? What’s wrong with him?

Apparently AS Monaco is looking at Mustafi. To be honest I would love us to swap him for Benjamin Heinrichs, an excellent versatile young defender and just be done with it.

With the news that Ozil and Kola are unavailable because they’ve suffered ‘further incidents’ since the original car hijack, I wonder whether Ozil and his wife are now keen on escaping London, and the DC United media story had some substance.

It’s extremely difficult to find a solution with his wages, but there’s an outside chance he takes a paycut just to get himself and his wife out of London before the international window shuts.

Tony

A series I am also enjoying is Ballers with The Rock – for me his best thus far.

Californication probably had one of the best scripts and brilliantly acted.

Tony

Good to hear Emery being vocal about Mustafi et al:

“‘Maybe there was the possibility he can leave’: Arsenal boss Unai Emery admits he is open to shipping out under-fire defender Shkodran Mustafi

Emery has confirmed he expects several departures in the coming weeks

Teams in Europe still have until September 2 to make signings

Maligned centre back Shkodran Mustafi is at the front of the queue to leave

Mohamed Elneny and Konstantinos Mavropanos could also be shipped out ”

https://www.goal.com/en/news/ozil-determined-to-stay-at-arsenal-amid-dc-united-links/mqs9xfgq9r0g1k0h59rfnkmgn

Apparently the talks about Ozil moving to DC were mostly bs… His representatives were there to talk about opening coffee shops. As I said before there is no way Ozil is taking a 50% paycut. However, I agree the whole ….the police told him and Kola to stay home thing is as weird as it gets. Sounds like a made up excuse. How is him staying home going to protect his family any more? They have these things called bodyguards all the rage with rich people.

China1

The only criticism I have of the club atm is emery has said the target is too 4

Imo the target should be top 3 and hopefully a domestic or EL trophy. That’s where our squad should be roundabout this season

Top 4 should really be the absolute bare minimum and I dislike the idea of setting targets for absolutely marginal improvement after the squad has actually got quite a fair bit better.

Anyway, good luck to the guy tomorrow. It’s not too late for me to watch so I’ll be watching!

China1

Not sure what to make if the ozil story but we should probably give t the benefit of the doubt if the police are involved

Tbh it could be that the police have reason to suspect there could be more attacks lined up on him but lack details but honestly I’ve no idea and it is strange

It also wouldn’t be the first time arsenal faked excuses to let ozil not play – but again I’ll give this one the benefit of the doubt

MidwestGun

China-
Exactly, I would like to believe it is a legit thing… as well…I just read an article that says the Club is helping him get private security or something to that affect.. but it’s Ozil…. weirdness surrounds him.. it seems.

China1

If we assume laca Pepe ozil and Lola are all not playing tomorrow, I wonder how we will set up

————-Leno
AMN-sok-luiz-monreal
——torreira-xhaka
———-Ceballos
Mikki—Auba—RN

The above is my guess for what emery will do, but my preference would be mikki and xhaka our for Martinelli and willock

Exciting times when we have options and it’s not a foregone conclusion

Bojangles

Tony

Yeah she really took off around that time. Same can’t be said for Reno though. Had one or two ok movies but seemed to be mis-cast, gotta blame his agent really, just out to get quick bucks rather than putting his client’s career first… Then again, I’m guessing Reno would have had the last word in what parts he accepted.

MidwestGun

Will probably be our weakest lineup of the season..but given recent playing time I would let the youth play as well.. Willock and Nelson for sure. Unfortunately, I’m pretty sure Miki will get a start as well..

Even though it’s so dated now this is such a funny movie, especially if you have a few drinks first or whatever rocks your boat.

The gym and police interview scenes are brilliantly funny.

Today’s comedy movies just don’t have those eye watering belly laughs any more, as with sit coms these days.

Kind of like Only Fools & Horses, which is timeless with its humour, such as the Hang Glider and Chandelier episodes or the Pub singer (crywin) and the yuppy one.

If Özil is worried about his personal security, perhaps he will move to one of the Turkish giants to finish his career. Very few people will mess with someone who is so close with the country’s President…

Although Norwich took a bit of a pasting in the first half last night , I believe they will surprise a few people with the quality of their football . I have said a few times last season on here , Daniel Farke is a quality up and coming manager ( possibly the next klopp) , he is brave and adventurous in the way he sets out his team and he is exactly the type of manager Arsenal football club should be considering when Emery leaves .

Was happy to see Norwich try to make a game of it last night, showing no fear and sticking to their principles. It makes the games against their equals vital as they will likely receive similar results against the top 6 clubs playing in that manner.

I think Pukki will hit 10-15 goals this season for them. Knows where the goal is, very composed finish when given the opportunity. Both full backs looked good going forward at least.

Lennon lied through his teeth to get the Tierney deal done. If we do any future deals with them we need to remember this.

Graham62

Pierre

I Agree.

I was very impressed by their movement and approach play.

They will cause problems for a few teams this season.

Leftsidesanch

Mustafi has been informed by fans in no uncertain terms that we want him to go off to pastures new, and by our manager x3 and he still wants to remain.

I really hope we can get rid of him and Elneny before the end of the window.

terraloon

Leeds.

If Arsenal’s medical team took any notice whatsoever of Lennons comments then everyone of them need sacking.
The responsibility for ensuring that Tierneys fitness or indeed any incoming player is ok lies 100% at Arsenal’s door and therein is the concern because everything being reported and indeed his issues in 2018/19 suggests that the alarm bells should have been banging loud.
We have seen this before at Arsenal that players with on going injuries have been signed mainly on loan but none the less they became costly bystanders.
What do they say about buyer be aware

China1

Yeah it was always clear Lennon was lying.

It’s why I didn’t want arsenal to do business with them in the end. It’s not even about the player, the cost or the injury, it’s that Celtic have been acting like something bigger than they are, which is a team of 15 year olds playing in an under 13s league.

They have this idea that they’re actually something because the dominate a pub league. Screw those losers, seriously

China1

Or we could’ve held strong at a lower price or better installment package because they’d already bought his replacement and as a team from a league with no money or quality, I doubt they’d be comfortable keeping Tierney having already signed his replacement

Celtic just gambled heavily on us being more desperate to buy than they were to sell, which in the end has paid off for them

I don’t blame arsenal too much because we were right to be a bit desperate, but I do regret that Celtic came out of negotiations happy.

China1

We should’ve set a deadline for Celtic earlier and moved on to our second choice if it didn’t work in our favour by then

Anyway it’s done now so fingers crossed his injury record is just a blip in his career…

They are well within their rights to make what they can.

Also with mustafi being booed by his own fans and encouraged to leave 3 times by his manager, you have to say that removes any doubt that he’s in it for anything other than easy money and a low pressure life if he still wants to stay

What a pleb

Leedsgunner

I’m just annoyed that a full back we paid good money for won’t be truly match fit for months.

I hope he does recover fully for the club’s sake.

Guns of Hackney

No criticism from me re Mustafi.

Arsenal offered contract. He signed. That’s it really.

Arsenal should have seen what 99% of the fans saw: Mustafi is not ver good.

He’ll sit out his deal, just like Ozil. The blame is with Arsenal, not the players. We just have to make sure we are scouting better this time around so we can avoid these embarrassing long, expensive contracts.

Guns of Hackney

If we have bought a broken player in Tierney, then once again, this is all on Arsenal.

Leftsidesanch

China

I don’t even think that Mustafi and the remaining slackers can coast through life at Arsenal anymore. Players have to earn their keep now or they’ll likely see the door. Hopefully he realises this.

terraloon

China.
Just a couple of weeks ago Kos was being ridiculed for his actions and many talked about how he had signed a contract so he should honour it . Well now the shoe is clearly on the other foot.
Arsenal signed the contract so they have to honour it or if they want him to leave they have to offer something that will encourage him to tear up that contract.
I understand the clamour to get rid of Mustafi but Emerys comments should not have been made in public.

Guns of Hackney

Le Grove seriously needs to read up about contracts.

Seriously!

Guns of Hackney

As long as a player or employee does not do anything that in any way voids their contract, they aren’t obliged to leave.

So what if Mustafi is threatened by not playing? He still gets he £100,000+ wages every week.

Bogarde.

Graham62

terraloon

If it was up to me, I would have held off on buying Tierney until he had got back to full fitness and was playing on a regular basis for Celtic.

Do I have concerns? Of course I do. At the end of the day though, we have to trust in the judgement of those involved. Not easy to do based on past experiences.

Hopefully, it all pans out for the best.

The problem, or should I say stumbling block, as far as Professional Sport is concerned, is the length of player contracts.

Five years is an awful long time when things go pear shape.

Guns of Hackney

Carts

I thought so too! It was nice to be involved in a conversation that wasn’t abusive…I should know as I am normally the abusive one.

Gentlebris

Emery had every right to go public on Mustafi. He had told him to fuck off on three different occasions but the greedy punk wouldn’t shift.

Emery had to take it to the next level, and that was the public statement, which in my opinion, was actually done really diplomatically.

Guns of Hackney

G62

It’s a gamble. 5 years gives player what they want: security. Club: security.

However…when you get an Ozil type situation 5 years and around £45m later in wages is club destroying.

Mustafi isn’t greedy. He signed a contract and Arsenal have to honour it.

I understand the security aspect but, just like any job where an employee is not performing up to the required standards, wouldn’t be great to have a notice period( 3 months)built into the contracts.

Very amateurish approach from the club in my opinion, they can’t have it all ways , they said they were disappointed because Kosielny wanted to leave and now they are disappointed because Mustafi wants to stay.

Even beats Aubameyang’s record for vertical leap during his physical. I predict he’ll be back for Liverpool
