AARON RAMSDALE DROP INCOMING

by .

My dad went on a stag-do with his younger cousins about 15 years ago, I wasn’t allowed to go. He had his own style, always, a sharp dresser if ever there was one. His best bit of work advice to me was.

‘If your clients aren’t talking about what you’re wearing, you’re wearing the wrong thing’

That has stood me well, being a bad dresser and all. Back to the point, he went on a Marbella stag do and decided he liked a £1000 cowboy jacket. It was black brushed leather with Eddie the eagle tassels so he looked like a bird when in the Jesus pose. Everyone told him he shouldn’t buy that jacket, but he wouldn’t listen, he knew it would crown his outfit… and that night, he was going to look like a hero.

He bought the jacket, owned the night, and never spoke about that jacket again.

To Arsenal fans, I think Aron Ramsdale is the jacket, we’re the friends wondering what’s going on… and there’s nothing we can do to stop the purchase. Arsenal are ten pints of data deep on this kid and they can already the dopamine hit when everyone is fawning over the tassels on the dance floor.

There is only one thing I can tell you to make you feel better… the same people that have identified Lokonga, White and Tavares are heavily skewing this decision. There’s something in his profile the club think they can work with. It’s not just him, it seems he’s quite popular in football circles, remember Chris Wilder is a proper coach and he made him his star signing (do NOT look at how that turned out). It is also worth noting that despite playing for relegated teams the past two seasons, both sets of fans voted him player of the season.

He’s also very, very young for a Premier League keeper.

So we’ll see. I’m just happy we’re bringing in a backup keeper. Even happier that the money would suggest he’s coming in to replace Leno as #1 as soon as the German drops a major footwork clanger against Brentford.

What I’m not happy about is that we are heading into the first game of the season having not added a single body to our attack. Arsenal had the 3rd best defence in the league last season and an attack that dropped just 55 (9th). Chelsea finished 8th for goals and spent £100m on Lukaku. I appreciate that attack often starts in defence in 2021. Ben White and a keeper that can pass will show us plebs that in due course. However, it is still quite baffling to be at a stalemate with our strikers and to still be fumbling around hoping Leicester or Madrid decide to deal this week.

Brentford will be a tough game, just because they have no history of the Premier League yet. We should beat them, but I’ll be honest, I don’t think I’ve ever known an Arsenal start to the season to be so pessimistic. There are a couple of reasons for that.

  1. Arteta burned all his ‘hope’ capital at the start of last season with that dreadful 14 game run. If you were a non-emotional fan, you’d be looking at the 60% of games we played post-Christmas for clues as to how we’re going to play this season. But you’re not, you are a hot mess of emotions and all we’re thinking about is how bad that start was last season.
  2. Preseasons against London rivals was a bad idea. Nice if you win, but back to back derby losses really was a waste of energy.
  3. Our start is hard.

A lot of the fear isn’t grounded in truth. I saw someone write ‘I just wish my team could register 15 shots a game’… our worst showing this summer was Spurs and we had 11 shots, 2 on target just like them. Chelsea 14, Watford 15+, Millwall 15+, Rangers 19, Hibs 19… shots hasn’t been the issue, but our forwards certainly have been.

There are going to be a lot of eyeballs on that teamsheet on Friday.

Is it going to be Hierahy FC this season? Are we going to see the rebirth of Laca/Auba as a mainstay? Will Arteta panic and start Mo Elneny in midfield next to Granit Xhaka? Who will start as right back, because Hector has been atrocious? Will we have to see 4 bad results to see the best starting 11?

Many questions I will look to tackle tomorrow.

Before we get there, I wanted to thank everyone who has been tuning in to the podcast this summer. We had our best week ever last week! We’re going to continue to bring you podcasts with LIVE video as the season goes on. One minor shift I want to make you aware of… we’ll be doing advertising on the podcast and a little bit with a great sponsor on the site. I went back and forth on it… but the reality is, I can’t ask people to do this for free, and this platform is expensive to run… servers, tools, microphones, WILD nights out in Vegas, all these annoying little subscriptions.

Anyway, jump on the latest videos, know that cancel culture exists and YOU made me change my haircut, and leave a nice 5* rating on iTunes.

Regarding Aouar
Is it possible that we aren’t so keen on him because we may have promised high wages last summer when we sought his signing, wages that we no longer want to match?
I’m pretty sure we would have paid him the same range of wages that Partey earns had we signed him last summer, now not so much.

The BFB

I can’t understand all the doom and gloom emanating from a large proportion of LeGrovers. As Pedro keeps reminding us, we finished an excellent third in the post-Christmas table and, with the addition of some very astute signings from our management team, top 4 should be a certainty. Back in the real world, however, why do I have an overwhelming feeling that we’ll be lucky to finish in the top 8 ?

NORG

Duzie – he is wearing one of Stan’s old wigs.

Habesha Gooner

Odegaard still on the cards it seems according to fabrizio. Why haven’t we bid for him yet? Dangle some money in front of them and see how they react. We will get a clear idea of whether they will sell. He will be a great acquisition. Up to 50 mil and we would be getting a real classy talent. 35 to 40 would be a real steal for him.

The Bard

The BFB the doom and gloom is because we haven’t addressed some key issues in the transfer window to date and yes we are more likely to finish 8th than t4. Don’t know how that translates into joyfulness.

Trying to stay positive.But my alter ego,Negative Nigel keeps whispering in my 👂

I suggested after first three inward transfers that I did not think that we would recruit any further outfield players until we have offloaded some of our unwanted players on the books.

Once Willock is sold and Kolasinac leaves I think there will be some movement.

englandsbest

China 1 As per usual, your argument is as full of holes as a sieve. Arteta HAS put money on the table – £70+ mill for White, Lokonga, Tavares. Also, from what we hear, he has made more than reasonable offers for others, like Ramsdale, Maddison. And commonsense tells us that he has alternatives in view, like Odegaard, Onona If you care to believe what we are told, NO CLUB is lining up for ANY of our players apart from Newcastle for Willock. And since the player has a contract, the decision lies with Willock. I hope he stays. But… Read more »

Should we take a punt on Icardi if one of our CF leaves? Though his time @PSG is underwhelming, I still feel there’s is a player in there. He’s wife has been his nemesis.

NORG

EB

He had better find that magic wand after all it is he that wanted Willian and now like a spoilt child he has tired of his new toy and wants rid.

Leftside

Martin Ødegaard is still Arsenal’s top target. Houssem Aouar is now back in the frame as a potential alternative. James Maddison not under serious consideration right now.

According to the Athletic

Mr Serge

Leftside makes sense he knows what ode can do
Maddison is expensive
Aouar is a risk as he seems moody and our manager is moody so they will fall out

shaun

If you asked every single person who visits this blog if they would rather keep the Brighton backup keeper we had last season and invest the 25 million it would take to secure Ramsdale this season in a quality CM .The outcome would be 100% in favour of just using Mat Ryan for another season as he was decent not spectacular .The main consensus here seems to be that Ramsdale is not even decent .A more worrying thought is that we could be relying on a Xhaka-Elneny CM partnership and that’s like being force fed white tripe for dinner

WEagle and TR7 bringing up the neverending list of Arteta’s failures. Now if only we added the actual footballing results including finishing 8th and 8th in the EPL, losing in the EL vs the titans of Olympiacos (who were kicked 2 days ago by the mighty Ludogorets out of the UCL qualifications) and a Villareal managed by none other but our very own Dracula. Then go through the 10s of negative records we broke, the impossible to watch “style” of football, low-scoring, boring, ugly, robotic, safety-first approach. Here are some of the negative records we broke in 20/21 that I… Read more »

Leftside

Serge, I would prefer Aouar to Ode who I find a neat player but powder puff, and won’t come up with enough goals or assists. Aouar and a good backup keeper makes sense.

My personal pick would be Maddison but that ship has sailed, Leicester don’t have to sell and us doing deals in high time doesn’t leave them enough time to source a replacement.

shaun

I am in agreement with Leftside except i would Bissouma ,madisson, Aouar and lastly ODE in that order .If I see Elneny and xhaka I am probably going to do a Thiery Henry

Mee

RM rate Ceballos above Odegaard. And we want Odegaard. Like we are smarter than RM?

Globalgunner

Raptora: Arteta breaking records. This season he has a chance to break even more

Leftside

TR7, WE & Rap

You forgot Arteta starting Partey in midfield alone in a European Semi Final and also Mr Arteta starting Smith Rowe as a false 9 when he had Martinelli, Nketiah and Auba sitting on the bench.

The ruthlessness he spoke about showing this summer was a lie too, unless we’re talking about Arteta’s treatment of Saliba.

DUIFG

We that list is bang on.

Too many player without a pathway , muddled thinking and no clarity.

What have we got now, auba as a wideman?pepe untrusted? Martinelli no clear role? Saliba in France?

Too many moving parts 2 years into a project.

Leftside

Shaun, hate to break it to you but that’s probably what you’ll see tomorrow.

Look out for the endless crosses to Lacazette who isn’t great with his head too. At least the crowds will drown out Arteta’s shouting and trying to control every facet of our play tomorrow.

China1

England’s best, excellent try but no lining up big offers and signing players in lesser priority positions is explicitly what we are saying is a dumb way to do business you go hard for the high priority and positions first and can take your time with the icing on the cake signings later we have several weaknesses and with 1 day left before the season starts we’ve signed 3 players yet addressed a grand total of 0 of our top priority weaknesses. you can spin this any way you like dude but that club koolaid your drinking looks exceptionally like… Read more »

The expectations are so low this season that I only hope that we atleast finish 6th. Not getting Europe is hurting us with such a big squad and clubs low balling us for players we need to offload. Just waiting for All Or Nothing to air , so I can see the famous Arteta’s non negotiables .

Kudos to all the AFC supporters around the globe that played their small part in making sure Ramsdale the Relegator never got the chance to wear the Arsenal no.1 shirt. No way did he deserve to wear it and no way did he deserve to follow in the footsteps of Kelsey, Wilson, Jennings , Seaman and Lehmann. Have no doubt- The Dopes pulled the plug not over payment- but over the backlash the player and the club would have received. They buckled like a pack of cards with the Super League and they buckled over Ramsdale. And if the pressure… Read more »

DUIFG

Ofegaard at least feels achievable target, get him in and go from there.

He isn’t an explosive guy but think he will be good against deep blocks . Can’t let him slow the ice down too much though. Not sure how you solve that problem. He clogs the right. Think you need Pepe other side, pointless having him exchanging passes, get him on the back stick

NwGooner

So at last Willock’s transfer is going through

Elmo

So if its Ode as the clocks strike 12, where will that leave us in comparison to last year? White replaces Luiz (“our best CB”), hopefully with his greater speed allowing us to play higher up the pitch, without getting caught Luiz-style hauling attackers down for red cards. Jury is out, but hopeful. Lokonga replaces Ceballos, but with a hint that he could be a break-out player. Tbd, but if we are to succeed this season, him far surpassing short-term expectations will likely be the key factor (which bearing in mind he’s 21 and new, shows where we are as… Read more »

salparadisenyc

Take Willock money reinvest it into Aouar, great biz on those numbers. Yet I’m reading we’re trying to loan him in?

DUIFG

I’m afraid edu has been captured by arteta. Can’t let go. Do this shit but power balance is fucked as edu has basically out his cart behind arteta in promoting him to manager and also saving his job last year.

He needs to say no don’t send saliba out, you don’t need nketiah etc etc. The inflated ego is now just running around unchecked causing carnage for us down the road. The madness must stop. Arteta out

DUIFG

When will we learn loans apart from a short term solution don’t work.

Option 1(most likely)-uninitiated player not trusted as not part of manager long term plan
Option 2- guy blows up and you are in a bidding war or lose player and start again.

Enough loans, it’s the sign of no clear plan

Elmo

DUIFG

If try before you buy (loan with option) is available for Aouar, we should be all over it. Takes away almost all the risk, while pricing in the player before you develop him.

NORG

AFC have a new secret tactic – Willian has the ball between his legs and the rotund Willian is rolled towards the opposition goal.

No way we finish in the top 4 and very unlikely 5th. 6th if we are lucky but if others have progressed then it could be a sorry 8th again.

raptora

Fabrizio Romano
Jannik Vestergaard is in Leicester to complete his move as new #LCFC centre back. Done deal confirmed – paperworks to be signed today afternoon between the two clubs.

Leicester are working so fast after Fofana has been ruled out till 2022.

Southampton without him and Ings are due to have many troubles in the EPL.

Soham

Might be a draw tomorrow at best or Arsenal will lose 1 nil with a late goal for Brentford

salparadisenyc

Ideally it’s Aouar and Ø, I can get behind that.
Maddison was never a goer.

Leaves keeper and trying to sort primary outs then replacing. Have to think Bellerin and Laca top that list now that Xhaka has feathered a new deal.

As it stands we’re out beyond the wire with Charlie zeroing in on no mans land. Some day this wars gonna end.

With the squad as it is Arsenal won’t finish higher than 6th. Add an attacking midfielder and even then 5th is a stretch. It’s hardly the epic rebuild fans were promised. Faith in KSE, Edu & Arteta was already running on empty, even before this masterclass in incompetence.

Chris Godfrey from the guardian going in two footed

DUIFG

ELMO, fine but our last two loans have not had options (ode/caballos).

Generally in the uk market we don’t see many loans with option to buys.

On housem if the deal is as you say fine, but Arsenal have gone pure loan route before who is just bad news

DUIFG

It wouldn’t actually maeke sense for Lyon either, they need money now not in 1 years time and why would you lock in a non cash price in a market that is expected to recover , I’m wary

curse

would love an Aouar loan, 100% try before buying given the smoke around him.

now the season is about to start, I would imagine things crank up next week as results become more important.

We at least have difference makers already in and saleable assets treading water in rumours. They’re still hot on Martin, a keeper and Tammy it seems.

Get those in along with a RB and that would be a decent window given the circumstances.

What ever dross remains, we utilise and shift in January.

Elmo

Agreed, DUIFG. Doubt it will happen, but worth trying. Look at the Italian sides: all kinds of wheeler-dealer stuff with 2 year loans followed by options or obligations (Locatelli etc.). The difficult market this year might allow PL teams to make suggestions like this.

Also if the possibility on deadline day is Ode straight loan, or nothing, then it’s better than nothing, but hopefully won’t be in that position!

Nelson

“RM rate Ceballos above Odegaard. And we want Odegaard. Like we are smarter than RM?”
_____________________________________________________________________________

It defends on the league. La Liga is more technical. There are a lot of good passers there. Ode looks more average in that league. But our front three, Auba, Laca and Pepe are all bad passers. Ode’s skill is what we are missing.

TR7

A loan doesn’t seem logical for any of the three parties involved.

Nelson

According to Pedro, we were third after December last year. If we get Ode, we should be able to fight for a top4 spot.

Dont count the chickens yet , until we see someone else come in Ramsdale is definitely the one we are after , might even panic buy at the end.

This club is an absolute disgrace. So poorly run. Does anybody know what they’re doing? Why are we still unsure about who to bring in? Aouar, Odegaard, Maddison…. they’ve all been available all summer. We supposedly have the money. What is the hesitation? The season starts tomorrow and I would argue that we have a worse squad than last year. Why would Leicester sell Maddison this late into the window? Why would Maddison push to leave at this point? Another mediocre midfielder to bring in on loan, no striker, no goalkeeper, Bellerin, Cedric and Chambers at RB again. What a… Read more »

Elmo, haha ye the Italians kings of the dodgy accounting and shared ownership.

Ode on a straight loan again o would avoid. Bad for dressing room having mercenaries and blocks pathway to develop talent you own.

Dissenter

I’m reading that we are trying to loan Aouar, when we know they are selling cheap because they are broke.
After spending the entirety of last summer trying to sign him?
After trying very hard to sign a shambolic goalkeeper for 20 million +?
WFT is wrong with this club?

Valentin

Raptora, Leicester are efficient, because they have a clear plan and they have the right people to execute it. Eisenhower decision matrix is exactly what efficient people do. If you replace urgent by expensive. You go first to solve the position that are the most needed and likely to be the most difficult/expensive to solve. Then the most important but less expensive. Followed by the not so important but expensive. Then if you still have cash the position that are less important and not expensive.

Raptora

Maybe think through some of the stuff you post as you’re casually airing your underpants.

Those numbers show Emery worse in attack and defence than Wenger, and Arteta worse in attack, but better in defence than Wenger and Emery.

Given 8/9 signings under Arteta have been defensive recruits you might say the process is kind of as expected given we’ve seen an uptick defensively. Emery on the other hand, spent money on both ends of the pitch and delivered worse in both categories. Good ebening indeed.

‘The contract James Maddison signed last year was worth £110k-p/w & he would most likely expect a significant uplift. While Arsenal’s owners are prepared to support Arteta with substantial transfer fees, there has been a definite attempt to balance the wage bill.‘
