Thursday Arsenal round-up

by .

Oh man, Open Mic with Martin Odegaard was good, right? What a leader. I love him.

Jan Fjortoft, who helped bring him into the Norwegian squad at 15 years old, spoke on ESPN and said he thinks the Arsenal project would be good for the player long-term. Jan is a big deal on the Norwegian futbol scene, he has good relationships with the kids, one would hope his suggestions was laced with some knowledge.

The player himself had an injury scare during the break, but the Norway manager says he’ll be fine for Thursday’s game… international breaks, in a season like this, are beyond the pale.

Arsenal players left at home have been training with Arteta and his staff. Gabi Martinelli scored a banger the club put on the .com. Hopefully a bigger chance for him to shine after the break.

Also great that our African players are not going to be as heavily involved for their countries. Thomas Partey and a focused Auba are going to be HUGELY important to any success we have post-break.

Welcoming Liverpool to The Emirates right after the break is not what I would call a sexy thought… however, it’s at home, Klopp won’t have much time with his players, we should at the very least be making the game an unenjoyable experience. Gonna be scenes when we beat them and people say they’re not a big 6 side.

We’re being linked with Aaron Ramsey who had a pretty fucking drab experience in Turin. He’s played 980 minutes this season, scored 2 goals, and made 5 assists. £400k a week for 6 assists and 7 goals in 2 seasons. He’s had 4 injuries this season already. There is absolutely no sense in bringing him back into the club, I’d prefer to sign Santi Cazorla. But really, I’d rather look to the future, than rely on players who were part of the Arsenal on the way down.

Just gonna be a short one today because that is the way we’ll be rolling through the international break.

Make sure you say your prayers for the player’s health, then listen to the evergreen podcast I did with Touchy Gooners.

Rich there are a lot of issues with an overly sensitive far left but the same is equally true of the far right

Watch Fox News or read the daily mail and absolutely every trivial thing (like some people saying happy holidays instead of merry Christmas) is turned into some faux outrage and fury.

The far left and right are as bad as each other

China1

Well in terms of nonsense I mean. The far right is obviously far more aggressive and prone to totalitarianism lol

Nothing far left about maintaining Roads, Schools and Hospitals.

Theres nothing like left or right, These are diversions created by Feudalism

China1 There’s a reason why you never see people fleeing countries with a free market, but you always see people fleeing socialist and communist countries, with large centralised bureaucracies, that control every aspect of their lives The left want the government to spend their money, rather than choosing how to spend their own money, that’s as authoritarian as it gets That’s like giving your kids pocket money, then demanding they walk down Asda to buy you some beef monster, so you can make a crisp sandwich We want a population who is strong and self reliant, not a population who… Read more »

Crikey the international break has a lot to answer for.

You really think the far left are as bad as the far right? The far right were trying to overturn an election in January and I’m struggling to think of something comparable from the left though.

It’s worrying how much Boris and co are enjoying their dictatorship.
Just keep printing money babe.
They hav’nt got a clue

Nice debate well put

China1

Double that’s why I clarified my point

I think there’s a tonne if nonsense from the far left and also a lot of outright nasty bollocks

But as I said it’s the far right that loves itself some good old fashioned fascism so in terms of seriousness yeah the right is miles worse

But for day to day talking nonsense I think the far left does more than it’s fair share

Rich that’s not as authoritarian as it gets Look at all of the most authoritarian regimes in the world and ask yourself if your standard ‘leftist liberal snowflake’ would even be welcome there. The LBQT lot would be put on death row in half of those countries for just existing. I think you’ll find it was Fox News recently bigging up Putin and getting excited for how he would hopefully trounce Biden in a debate. Just like it was the right making up lies about the election to try and overthrow democracy in its entirety There’s really not much of… Read more »

Lol rich you literally cannot be serious that high taxes and large welfare programs are ‘as authoritarian as it gets’

Like do you think we went to war with nazi germany because their government insisted on high taxes to pay for welfare programs???

Rich is talking economics (well….), and baiting imaginary snowflakes.

Must be an international break.

Doublethink – did you see the time article about how the election was “fortified”? That’s beyond shady and calls into question everything you see in the media.
