With my limited knowledge on the Arsenal women team, that Jonas dude is a fraud. The team has been regressing under him. Our stars move to competitor clubs. We're not winning the important trophies and he's been around for a hot minute. It's shambles. A change is needed.
Contrary to reports on social media, Martin Odegaard has not suffered a setback and Arsenal are hopeful he can return from his ankle injury in November.
November is very optimistic, more like he starts getting minutes after he next international break in late November but he can’t be back to the hard pressing captain till next year.
"Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka has been ruled out of England’s Nations League trip to Finland and sent back to the club for assessment on an injury picked up in the defeat to Greece."
Worrying about whether we keep Saliba or not is pointless. It isn’t happening now or this season so let’s not worry about it at all. It’s quite possible this FIFA test case is going to ban all transfer fees anyway so that will be that
Enjoy the day folks and spend less time worrying about tomorrow. Who knows, we may discover someone even better than Bill!
repercussions will be massive if FIFA lose. I sincerely hope not but it will be a body blow for anyone tying to offload players eg Chelsea
Might also affect the accounting treatment- if no fees then no value and presumably all unamortised fees would be impaired and written off in the next years accounts
wouldn’t be great for us but other clubs would be in worse position eg Chelsea
Tbh I can see him running his deal down and going on a free. Players are a lot more clued up now. He will know real don’t have 100mill to spend on him. Nobody on the continent has sort of cash outside psg and Bayern. Trent and Davies are doing it now to get the real move and even mbappe did the same. That’s why they can afford that wage bill. They’ll be tapping him up from early
Watching an EPL classic series on TV and Tottenham v Chelsea from 2015/16 is on. I see Moussa Dembele for Spuds and I can't help but gush over him. With Mikel Obi, arguably the best press resistant DM/CDM the PL has ever seen, everyone included.
We really could have used Dembele - he bossed the Manure midfield while with Fulham and was what we needed to get over the hump at the time. Our midfield was talented but small - Cazorla, Wilshire, Ox-C, Arshavin, Rosicky, Le Coq.
I feel you. In one of those classic games, Arsenal v Spuds (4-4). We played a 442 with Cesc and Denilson pinning the midfield, Walcott and Nasri both wings, RVP and Ade leading the line. I couldn't believe my eyes. Such irresponsibility by Wenger 😅
FootballTransfers understands that Arsenal’s rising star Ethan Nwaneri is poised to make Premier League history by becoming the third-highest-paid teenager in the league come March.
Sources have revealed that preliminary talks are underway regarding a lucrative £60,000-a-week, five-year contract designed to secure his long-term future at the North London club.
This substantial deal will place Nwaneri on par with Manchester United's talented youngster Kobbie Mainoo, who is also expected to sign a £60,000-per-week contract. Mainoo, who currently earns £20,000 a week, is set for a significant pay increase, similar to what Nwaneri is to receive.
The proposed deal will make Nwaneri one of the best-paid teenagers in Premier League history. For context, the midfielder’s current weekly salary stands at £3,120.
While this deal would put Nwaneri third, the highest-paid teenage footballers in the Premier League currently include Tottenham's Archie Gray, who earns £74,638 a week, and Man Utd's Lenny Yoro, who tops the list with an eye-watering £114,000 per week.
Hopefully he keeps developing until March but from what I've seen, I realize why we put up a big fight to keep him at the club. A much bigger effort than what we showed with Chido Obi-Martin, Reuell Walters, Amario Cozier-Duberry and Omari Hutchinson. I assume the people at Arsenal universally rate Nwaneri the most talented of the bunch.
Feel there would be an intermediate wage level , like 30k pw (10x current ) with Nwaneri not as yet officially promoted to the first team. Hopefully not another case of getting too much too soon for a 'kid' who hasn't started one PL game...
There's time till March to gain more evidence if a raise that high would be worth it but if you ask me, the management at Arsenal already know of Nwaneri's quality. Sounds like the club has done the impossible to secure Nwaneri, that should tell us that the next few months aren't really that important in what could be a superb career ahead of our boy.
Lol... just read that Van Dijk and Salah released from international duty!
No reported health /injury issues.
van D got himself a red card ...so not needed to remain in the NT hahaha
Saka back in Arsenal for treatment... 🤞🤞 he'd make the Liverpool and Newcastle games...
Btw, supposedly 3 insiders hadn't heard anything about setback of Odegarrd recovery...🤞🤞
Arsenal women need to sack that Jonas fella, spent a healthy sum and his teams haven't exactly evolved
Nobody cares

Contrary to reports on social media, Martin Odegaard has not suffered a setback and Arsenal are hopeful he can return from his ankle injury in November.
Wait, what? But Dissenter said this yesterday:
“Ankle ligament injuries are notoriously difficult to recover from because if the risk of re-injury
Odegaard was never going to fully return until 2025.
He didn't suffer a setback because it was widely optimistic expecting him to return so soon.”
Sky Sports fake news. Dissenter in the know.
‘Fully return’ is the operative term though.
They are not going to load him too much.
November is very optimistic, more like he starts getting minutes after he next international break in late November but he can’t be back to the hard pressing captain till next year.
Caitlin Foord just scored a good goal.
Who else is watching the Arsenal vs Chelsea women's game?
I'm currently watching it on YouTube. The pace looks slow to me. Or maybe I'm not used to the women's game.
Nobody
Get a life mate
From the Guardian -
"Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka has been ruled out of England’s Nations League trip to Finland and sent back to the club for assessment on an injury picked up in the defeat to Greece."
Good
That means he’s coming home to be ready for us
So that twat at Chelsea looks to have done a masterclass with all these 7yr/9yr deals now?
Worrying about whether we keep Saliba or not is pointless. It isn’t happening now or this season so let’s not worry about it at all. It’s quite possible this FIFA test case is going to ban all transfer fees anyway so that will be that
Enjoy the day folks and spend less time worrying about tomorrow. Who knows, we may discover someone even better than Bill!
No transfer fees? How do the little guys survive?
repercussions will be massive if FIFA lose. I sincerely hope not but it will be a body blow for anyone tying to offload players eg Chelsea
Might also affect the accounting treatment- if no fees then no value and presumably all unamortised fees would be impaired and written off in the next years accounts
wouldn’t be great for us but other clubs would be in worse position eg Chelsea
Technically, same [accounting ] treatment for all but material difference being the total $ exposure at the time when the rule becomes effective
Has Saka returned to Arsenal from the NT yet having come off injured early 2H? Need to be assertive esp with key players!
Assertive?
What needs to happen is someone stopping this madness by which I mean of course treating players like horses.
I blame the fans for this of course.
Club fans demanding the ball staying in play more and more so they can get more bang for their buck, so to speak.
Unless of course their team is leading in which case time wasting is most welcome lol.
And NT fans who will watch all kinds of boring friendlies in stadia or on tv to fill their own boring lives with some meaning.
England vs Greece in a second tier of some bs League of Nations?!?!?!
Ffs, I wouldn’t watch that garbage if my life depended on it.
Assertive as in Arsenal pulling Saka out of the NT as soon as there's a hint of injury....
Agreed the less interhull the better
Hear, hear
I can see PSG splashing a lot of cash for him. Like Real M. they have a lot of the French national team on their squad. And he'd be back home.
I agree with PSG wanting him and being willing to pay a lot of money, but that’s where it ends
- we would never sell just to cash in
- no amount of money can buy a replacement
- we don’t need to generate money to spend elsewhere
- we would never willingly lose him without a fight
- PSG is never a move he would push for
- he’s a Gooner, this is his home
And also…
- Paris is a shit-hole on the brink of societal collapse
Hmmmmmm.London ain’t far off either.Some might say inner London already is.
Inner London? Westminster, Camden, City of London, Islington etc?
Tbh I can see him running his deal down and going on a free. Players are a lot more clued up now. He will know real don’t have 100mill to spend on him. Nobody on the continent has sort of cash outside psg and Bayern. Trent and Davies are doing it now to get the real move and even mbappe did the same. That’s why they can afford that wage bill.

Here’s Calafiori’s
https://youtube.com/shorts/-fnjHawx4pU?si=xc9mKFBN-ISNapb_
Willow’s Goal:
https://youtube.com/shorts/sg_Tj11i1Y4?si=HjlbhPZbIMEF2dDR
Calafiori on both technique and impact
What Goal do you think was better?
Saliba on the road against Bournemouth
Or
Calafiori @ The Etihad ?
I give the nod to Calafiori’s goal because of the time and magnitude of the match and also because of the place and quality of opponent.
But both are just incredible one time strikes from our defenders

Denilson… hanging my head in shame
