How good was Marli Salmon last night.
👌👌👌👌👌
13 Aug 2026 10:12:19
you mean Reggie from Bad Boys, very good Billy
13 Aug 2026 11:17:51
Absolutely, Sparky, mate. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
12 Aug 2026 13:27:24
Ed any chance of live chat for tonight's game please mate.
The real time Arsenal Live Chat page will be open for you to talk to each other 1 hour before and during today's Arsenal game.
12 Aug 2026 13:57:28
Thanks ed
11 Aug 2026 15:13:18
Please don't say we're letting Skelly leave the club. He has a great future.
11 Aug 2026 17:15:12
Hello Sally, Hope everyone and everything is good.
Mikel said difficult decisions will have to be made, and I think this could be one of them.
Me, personally, I would keep him, no arguments.
But!!!
11 Aug 2026 17:41:00
Sorry, SB, I put Sally's name in.
Hope you are good, mate.
11 Aug 2026 18:36:17
Apparently it's his agent and intermediaries that are hawking him around.
Thankfully, it sounds that he is going nowhere.
11 Aug 2026 19:19:18
I really hope he's not going. He is so versatile and Arsenal to his core.
A loan, perhaps, but if he does leave, I want a buy back clause!
11 Aug 2026 19:25:04
Just read The Athletic said he wants to stay with us. If his agent is hawking him around, he needs to get shot of them! Set his grandma on them lol.
11 Aug 2026 19:59:28
Why would he go to Chelski? He's a Gooner, and, even more so, they have two 115 mill players ahead of him, plus they are playing once a week with no Europe whatsoever. MA trusts him; he gave him a start in the CL Final. Nowt to see here! 🤞 COYG
{Ed014's Note - agree mate, much more likely to go on loan somewhere to allow him to develop
11 Aug 2026 20:58:28
All good, Highbury mate, lol and yeah I'm hoping a loan move, not to sell him. I'm hoping we don't sell him.
11 Aug 2026 21:46:10
Judging by the Cheatski page, they don't rate him anyway. It's a dereliction of duty if we let him anywhere near that club. I always thought I was quite a reasonable person, but feck me, I have a real blind spot with C£ty and Chelski. I like to think most fans do COYG.
#cheatsneverprosperbuttheydo££££
12 Aug 2026 00:35:55
If we slap a $ 150Mil price tag on him, they might bite. He was trusted to start the CL Final. I hope we have a place for him. But we have to move some players out.
13 Aug 2026 11:58:19
Sally, his agent, is his mum. I suppose his gran is the only person he can set on her!

Come on Brian - get some business done, season starts and we pay you to get stuff done in the window!
We’ve needed attacking options for a while.
Chelsea jumped you - Vini distracted you while Liverpool outmanoeuvring you on Barcola.
Stop flirting and get the business done, son.
1. Striker (2 seasons and counting)
2. LW (2 seasons and counting)
3 RB.
11 Aug 2026 10:20:39
Ffs, Sy, Chelsea did not jump us, they overpaid 37 million pounds more than we were willing to pay. Rogers 117m, really.
Barcola 130 million, really.
Tbh, there is not a lot on the market to improve what we got. Mikel/Berti thought Vini would and we're willing to smash the British transfer record and our wage structure to get him.
It didn't happen, so we move on.
Tzolis looks a bargain so far.
Our midfield is off the scale.
We need defensive cover, but at a push Marli Salmon looks more than capable.
We seem to be concentrating on clearing the decks, and if we don't do any more business we go with what we got.
COYG.
11 Aug 2026 11:42:51
SY4, the Morgan Rogers one was the mistake. He was Arteta's number 1 target, and, in today's over-inflated market, was always going to cost over £100 million. Chelsea acted quicker and got our main target. They will probably offer us Neto now.
10 Aug 2026 11:20:05.
Just seen the highlights of yesterday game.
Ethan, Max and Christos looked good.
Cannot believe that linesman thought Gabi was offside, shocking.
10 Aug 2026 15:51:44.
Tzolis was really good and I liked what I saw of him in the last few friendlies.
10 Aug 2026 20:55:02
Forgot to mention Marli Salmons' superb tackle on Guirassy.
11 Aug 2026 02:49:59
Incredible that Salmon is just 16. Plays with superb awareness.
Tzolis should start the season opener, for me. He's bagged a goal or assist every game for 26 straight games or something.
09 Aug 2026 19:09:03
My attempts to develop an artificial testicle have been shambolic.
10 Aug 2026 19:42:46
At least you got the ball rolling.
10 Aug 2026 19:55:49
I agree with Sharpie, it's all b*****.
10 Aug 2026 22:31:22
The nutty professor.. at least you had the balls to try. 👏👏👏
10 Aug 2026 23:26:31
Good luck, hope you can pull it off. Keep your head up & get a grip.
11 Aug 2026 08:48:20
I guess the silver lining is I didn't get the sack.
09 Aug 2026 13:21:27
In case anyone doesn't know, it seems the game today is free on Arsenal's YouTube channel. Happy happy happy!
09 Aug 2026 14:31:19
Still happy? lol.
09 Aug 2026 14:33:29
Getting mugged. I know it's just a friendly, but this is where we try and show a bit of how we intend to run the season.
09 Aug 2026 14:44:55
Max looking good.
09 Aug 2026 14:52:21
A 16 year old and 3? under-20 year olds, a 2nd goalkeeper, so I'm not too unhappy, guys. I see lots of talent coming through..
09 Aug 2026 15:35:18
I prefer Meslier to Arizabalaga.
09 Aug 2026 15:37:45
It'll be alright on the night, Sally, and the night things genuinely start counting for anything of any huge importance is Friday 21st of August v Coventry.
Up until then, everything is simply a dress rehearsal, obviously, it's always better when rehearsals go really well, but learning from things that go wrong before the opening night is what rehearsals are really all about.
09 Aug 2026 17:34:36
Totally agree 62, I was really impressed with our youngsters, and if that is the last goal Martinelli scores for us he will have gone out in style. 💪 🔥
09 Aug 2026 07:49:29
Wanted to get everyone and Ed001's opinions on who will be first choice forward this year? Do we think Gyokores will nail it down or is it Havertz' for the taking?
Also how do we see the team fitting in Bruno? Do we think this will change Rice's role as he was prolific in the way he was contributing all around last season. I could see a season in which Rice and Bruno chip in 10 goals each in the league if Arteta balances the roles.
{Ed001's Note - I think Gyokeres should step up, but Arteta loves Havertz, so he might not get the chance. A lot depends on injuries etc though, as Havertz will get used in other roles if needed, which will free up Gyokeres to get going.
Bruno is likely to sit and allow Rice more freedom.}
09 Aug 2026 09:41:45
Neither as an upgrade is needed there. 💯
Neither good enough at the top top level, and I'm hoping that's where we want to be.
Failing - depends on opponents, but neither will scare City defence like Haaland scares & occupies ours.
09 Aug 2026 11:34:25
At the moment, we have quality backup in every position if we play a 4231 double pivot - which I'm hoping we generally do against most teams, which means, hopefully, Bruno will play alongside Deckers a lot - but this season I think realistically Mikel will probably not always play his best team & rotate a lot depending on form, cups & opposition to avoid injuries/fatigue and save the best 11 for the big games because we have such a great squad. Same for Kai & Vik tbh.
I can see what Sy is (consistently!) saying about Vik/Kai vs the best strikers. I prefer to be hopeful, and really do think with Bruno, Dec, Ode, Tzolis, Saka, hopefully an improved end product from Noni, and long balls from Raya, that's a lot of potential quality balls in the box & movement to confuse/tire defenders, & hopefully Vik gets the chance to show what he's really about this season.
I'm saying he's 20 goals in the Prem! (I've nearly always been wrong when I've posted predictions on here in the past, but not now! 😆) Come on Viktor! 💪
(I also think the club are waiting for a top striker to become available, and will go all out when it's feasible - possibly like they are reported to have done for Vini. But winning the Prem and/or Champions League this season might make a real difference in attracting them?)
09 Aug 2026 12:41:33
Would love it if they get 35 goals in EPL between the two of them & not penalties or against poor teams. Would love it, Jim.
I am consistent!
