And surprised Cole Palmer isn't there

Who would you swap him for?

Crooby the massive Palmersexual

Agreement almost settled with Arsenal for Merino.

35m fixed with 5m variable

If true it`s not a good deal for a player who has 1 year on his current contract.

GT would rather his red membership money goes towards paying for Eddie's contract for another season instead

....or going for a winger/stricker instead

*striker ffs, Wursfinger

Who?

Stricker Wursfinger, he's a good player

thoughts ahead of Villa match?. Lost o them twice last season without scoring a goal. Revenge time

We'll get revenge I would think/hope, though Emery does seem to be able to outmaneuver Arteta. Glad we getting this game out of the way early in the season as well.

Think it will be a disappointing draw

If Arteta doesn't play ZInny or Jesus as striker we should be OK. We should've got something out of both games.

So much disrespect for Arteta though, I heard a Liverpool fan that said if Slot wasn't there he would rather Emery than Arteta.

Oh no

Douglas Luiz always played his best against us. I think they will miss him trying to execute their usual deep block against us.

Havertz was in midfield last time we played them wasn't he?

never again

NEVER again

The one moment of madness that cost Arteta the league

If they play the same going forward as against West Ham we could be in big trouble. They looked strong and have several options upfront that can hurt us.

We have to play a perfect match and not squander chance after chance.

Looks like forest are going back in for Gimenez

Arteta overthought like Pep often does. He expected Villa to put 10 men behind the ball and they did. But he didn't expect Douglas Luiz to out duel Rice so we never got the requiste amount of ball in the final third to make Havertz the strategy work. It never does any way because Havertz/Jesus both occupy the same areas.
