Stop abusing people just because they don’t agree with you. Especially when comments are not directed at you personally.
Everyone loves the club dammit. This childish bickering is tiresome … damn I can’t wait for kickoff so we can have real games to talk about instead of all these Male Karen’s getting triggered by attention seeking comments.
You see this is why I'd never consider giving money to Pedro. You just get people saying all kinds of wild horrible shit and nothing gets done about it. Like what do you pay for?
I think me personally we should be able to deal with Spurs even with the players out and shortness in some areas. It's after that there's a slight worry. Like odegaard is a big miss but we should be able to mix it up and deal with it.
BBC Sport (Mark Chapman) is suggesting Ethan Nwaneri could start the NLD! The only comp for this is Cesc Fabregas (age 17) making 3 appearances in the league cup during the Invincibles season (03/04) - and 46 appearances the next season. Is it too early for Ethan to play in such a massive game for a team with aspirations to win the league? Personally, I think give him a chance, he's surrounded by experienced players and the only natural replacement for Odegaard. If this was Lamine Yamal ...
First of all congratulations to the club on offering Arteta a three year contract, which I am glad that he has accepted as indeed most genuine supporters will be also pleased to see.
Sadly there are always a small number of people who like to criticise and are never satisfied.
Let's be analytical.
Arteta inherited a squad which was not fit for purpose when he arrived and included a number of
players who were frankly toxic. It took two years to clear out those element and build a young and
inexperienced group of players into a "competitive" team/squad which we see today.
In the last two seasons we have finished second behind the strongest team possibly in 21st Century and we qualified for Champions League. We are the second best team in EPL.
Last season we scored a phenomenal number of goals despite lacking a prolific striker and our
defence was the best in the league. Okay we did not win a trophy, but that should not detract from
our achievements.
This summer the club did not go overboard in the transfer market chosing to focus on strengthening our squad rather than buying headliners. Merino, Calafiori and Sterling is smart
recruitment and provides more experience and depth.
Apart from the lack of a goal scoring striker my only gripe is the turnover of goalkeepers under
Arteta's watch. Recruitment of a goalkeeper should be a "long term investment". I have yet to
be convinced that Raya fits that bill and I am concerned about Neto as a replacement for Ramsdale. However, that is detail in the overall picture.
What I do know is that Arteta and Edu are building a very strong and competitive team whatever
the desperate bitterness of a blatant spud Andy Dunn in this article is hilarious
He’s literally FUMING that Arsenal loaned a player from Chelsea and he could score against spurs but can’t face Chelsea. As tho he’s never heard of a loan before
He literally describing as undermining the integrity of the PL 😂😂😂😂😂
But the wanker chooses to ignore the oilers & their integrity? Typical rag guff.By the way think Dunn is a Manc & hates Arsenal anyway.Wants us to lose .As they all do.Thats why he’s shitting a brick re Stirling.Who I hope scores a f*** ng Hat trick!
If some of you are wondering why pussies like Ciro and Mystic are so depressively negative and pessimistic, it’s probably because they are poor and have little money in real life. Wasting energy being cunts about this kind of shit is poor people activities.
For me it’s relatively simple and like I said the other day. There are two factors that determine every spurs result
1) did the opposition defend well?
2) did the opposition take some of their copious number of chances down the other end?
If either of the above are a ‘no’ spurs get a result. If both are a yes spurs get wrecked.
They are entirely predictable and are frankly a very poorly coached team. If you don’t make silly mistakes or get flustered by all the noise they make, they’re only really a mid table team in terms of actual quality.
But that’s the thing. Teams do allow themselves to get flustered by all that hot air from them and when they get flustered they make mistakes both defensively and offensively, which gifts spurs points.
Purely from a quality perspective, our lineup this weekend should frankly shit all over them. But without rice and Ode, that question of if our lads will still keep their heads and avoid getting flustered remains to be seen. Especially in midfield and CF positions where there are changes in the lineup
Hope that’s not the MF. No legs in there at all.Would have Timber/ Calafiori if either available as insurance.Trossard alway better off the bench imo.lets see.
I have a feeling we are going to beat spurs. What I am worried about is the Man City game. But Rice will be back for that too. I am not losing my head like some fans. I am happy with the squad we have and I believe they can handle it.
I am absolutely convince that we can and will the league this year and I also convinced that we were the best team in Europe at least the last season, I would start Nwaneri on Sunday, that would be a statement of confidence, I understand it may be too hot for young man to go the Den of our enemies !!
I am unable to understand how any one who supports Arsenal can be pessimistic at this moment in time, this people have serious problems in their life and we can not help them here unfortunately. i am also very sad that my first post in the new format is above.
I suspect Sterling would start, Martinelli over Trossard for his stronger defensive ability, and Saka to complete the front line.
Havertz to play the 8, Partey as 6, and Timber to complete our make shift midfield. Nwaneri unlikely to start a NLD... Arteta is risk averse.
Remaining question is who gets the nod to play LB... I'd prefer Calafiori who could invert to add some steel and forward impetus as Havertz making late runs into the final third ..
Whoever in the starting 11, it remains a must win game after all.
Guys let people have their opinions.

In normal circumstances I would expect Havertz or Trossard to play AMF role as replacement for Odegaard.
The left midfield position would be played by Rice with Merino as his back up. Partey
would operate in central midfield role with Jorginho as backup.
However, with three midfielders missing with either red card or injuries Arteta will
have to consider very carefully his midfield options this weekend.
Nwaneri's expectations this season would normally be to come off bench and/or
perhaps play in a Carabo Cup game against a team like Bolton. That would be a logical
starting point.

What I do know is that Arteta and Edu are building a very strong and competitive team whatever
the negative critics post on here.
Neto is just a loan. So, we are technically still on the look out for a back up keeper.
I am wondering whether we are secretly hoping on landing on the 2nd coming of Ederson.
LOL

Didn’t Spurs loan Timo Werner from Chelsea a year or two ago? And he could’ve scored against Arsenal and couldn’t play vs Chelsea)….
Wtf is this guy smoking
If some of you are wondering why pussies like Ciro and Mystic are so depressively negative and pessimistic, it’s probably because they are poor and have little money in real life. Wasting energy being cunts about this kind of shit is poor people activities.
Actually,he’s spot on.
A lot of people are poor by choice.
Not sure how did that offend you personally, as I didn't mean anyone on this blog specifically since I don't know any of you, but it is what it is...
I meant poor by my standards not by your standards, labourer.

Met Sean Dyche in Ibiza last weekend. He looks fatter on TV. Lovely bloke.
Does he always wear the nylon stocking over his head?
Arteta takes low risks with the starting line up. Sterling won't start and neither will Nwaneri
Martinelli Trossard Saka
Haverts Partey Joginho
Timber Gabriel Saliba White
Raya
Hope that’s not the MF. No legs in there at all.Would have Timber/ Calafiori if either available as insurance.Trossard alway better off the bench imo.lets see.
I have a feeling we are going to beat spurs. What I am worried about is the Man City game. But Rice will be back for that too. I am not losing my head like some fans. I am happy with the squad we have and I believe they can handle it.
We have the squad to manage these games, I’m also hopeful for Sunday. Everytime I need a slight confidence boost Hab is there! It’s good.
City will be an entirely different nut to crack but lets go game at a time.
Agreed; there will be many games where key players are missing ; the reinforcements should be higher quality this year to step in when required
I am absolutely convince that we can and will the league this year and I also convinced that we were the best team in Europe at least the last season, I would start Nwaneri on Sunday, that would be a statement of confidence, I understand it may be too hot for young man to go the Den of our enemies !!

“this people have serious problems in their life and we can not help them here unfortunately”
Why so pessimistic?
Maybe if you told them what it is you smoke to achieve such positivity ( best team in Europe eh?) they might get out of their funk.
Arteta was always getting offered a new deal and he was always going to sign it, a complete non story regardless the bump in pay.
If you are getting upset about any aspect of it then that’s on you.
Two important games coming up we need points from.
Four points would be ideal to keep a touching distance to City and also Pool who have three winnable games coming up.
In the event City get a points deduction this season ( doubtful) we don’t want to finish behind Liverpool who look up for it.
They do look up for it - but only three games have been played - out of thirty-eight.
Spurs looked pretty up for it at the start of last season lol
I suspect Sterling would start, Martinelli over Trossard for his stronger defensive ability, and Saka to complete the front line.
Havertz to play the 8, Partey as 6, and Timber to complete our make shift midfield. Nwaneri unlikely to start a NLD... Arteta is risk averse.
Remaining question is who gets the nod to play LB... I'd prefer Calafiori who could invert to add some steel and forward impetus as Havertz making late runs into the final third ..
Whoever in the starting 11, it remains a must win game after all.
If Calafiori is fit I’d use him as a no6 with Timber at LB
That avoids playing both Jorginho and Partey
The reason you're scanning for hope is because Arteta doesn't manage his squad properly.
One player gets 3,500 minutes while the person who's supposed to be his deputy gets 200 minutes.
Then, when the deputy is forced to play because of injuries, superfans call him shit because he has one bad performance.
City has been playing their early games without Foden and Rodri (2 of their best players last season) and have been winning.
But Arteta will never rest some players.
I think we won't get so lucky with injuries this season.
