We have signed Meslier from Leeds as Raya's deputy so, guess we will cash in on Kepa?
We have lost out on Monga, Fernandes and Tonalli, Eds do you know what is the latest and realistic targets for us this window? Are we getting Guimaraes and Rogers?
Also, lot of chatter about Calafiori to Real, any truth in that?
{Ed001's Note - I am sorry, this is Ed2's area, I don't have any insight into Arsenal's dealings at the moment.}

Thanks Ed, no worries. I guess we will soon get clarity on everything. Not particularly worried as we still have the same squad that won the PL

I have said earlier that I have doubts about Zubimendi but will give him the benefit of first season in the new league. However, though some of his tackles are great, his passing is mostly sideways or backwards. He has been guilty of Man U's first goal in the home defeat and for the final, he was ahead of Oreilly when Kepa dropped the ball, he shouldn't have allowed him to score but he was easily brushed aside for a free header.
Hopefully he improves in his physicality for the next season.
Over analysing now that I am pissed to lose the chance of first of the four trophies.

So, Zubimendi was on the right side of the player until Kepa dropped a cross he didn't need to try and catch? Bad example to use, in my opinion.

Hi Eds, Eze has been linked with Man U and Spurs, surely if he is moving then we should be going in for him or is he not a target for us?
{Ed014's Note - Rodrygo is the only winger I’ve seen us linked with so wouldn’t know about Eze.
It would seem strange for him to take a step down and join the Spuds or that Manc 5h1te. ?♂️
1.) 16 Jun 2025 17:07:18
Thanks Ed, same thoughts regarding him taking a step down by going to either. It will be good for us to get one of Rodrygo, Eze or Gordon. Can take a punt on Grealish with loan.
{Ed014's Note - a case of wait and see HB.

Flirt with the prettiest girl at the disco and leave empty handed or with a tramp. Great.
We need to be more strategic and deliver - who cares about the fish we wanted to catch. 3 years later and we are still chasing the dream.
If we win trophies - it would be easier.
03 Jun 2025 09:40:48
Hi Eds, do you know if we have had any serious discussions with our primary targets and their clubs? It is very early days and transfers are complicated process but I am fearing the usual hesitancy in our approach. It will be disheartening if good players are snapped up and we keep faffing around.
{Ed001's Note - yes, I believe you are trying to sort out at least a couple of signings in this initial window. It is a different year for PSR purposes than the second window, so getting them done now will get them off the books earlier in the future.}
1.) 03 Jun 2025 10:32:31
Thanks Ed.
{Ed001's Note - very welcome mate.}
26 May 2025 12:56:31
Hi Eds, do you have any latest on which wingers we are looking at if any? I would have liked Eze or Gordan, but with Palace in Europa and Newcastle in the CL, they look unlikely. We missed out on Marmoush and will have to compete with many clubs for Nico Williams. We need someone who can hit the ground running and preferably with premier league experience.
{Ed001's Note - Rafael Leao and Gittens seem to be the main two targets.}
1.) 26 May 2025 13:36:53
Thanks Ed, Leao is a good player but hasn’t lived up to the hype, Gittens also is one for the future but any additional depth to the squad will be welcome.
2.) 29 May 2025 02:26:39
I would be chuffed with Gittens, 20 y/ o with 8 goals and 3 assists for BvB? Sign me up. Williams would be the premium target but doubt we'd pay the asking price.

Odegaard’s extra touches have costed two great chances for Norway. He needs to play the ball first time which has been our issue as well, last season.
1.) 06 Jul 2026 09:03:07
Said the same thing to the wife during the game. It's his biggest fault, Highbury, mate.
02 Jul 2026 09:07:55
With the business, Spurs are doing or predicted to do, take it that there won’t be a chance of relegation anytime soon at the Lane?!
It will be wise for these players to have a get out relegation clause though ?.
26 Jun 2026 10:25:15
What is happening with City's charges? How can they still continue to spend hundreds of millions on players?!
1.) 29 Jun 2026 20:03:46
Because they spend billions on the officials.
25 Jun 2026 09:27:25
Hello Gooners, hope you are enjoying the ‘extreme’ summer!
World Cup is finally getting interesting. It was great to see our captain leading the Viking row after their win, absolutely amazing. Norway may well be the surprise package of this World Cup.
1.) 01 Jul 2026 10:05:32
I'm hoping Brazil do England a favour & beat them, as I fancy you boys beating Brazil, but Norway could do you over.
England are a bit boring to be fair, though - need to take a leaf out of Bournemouth's playbook and get the ball forward quicker.
Hopefully Saka is back to his best, & England start passing in front of players to stop Saka getting the ball back to goal, a bit like us.
30 May 2026 22:34:14
Proud of the boys, they have put in absolutely everything this season. We are the PL champions!
May be the CL was a step too far for us this season, we aren’t clicking in attack, can thread an attack with 3/4/5 passes. PSG was always going to score so we should have been on the front foot after we took the lead.
Bring on next season!
1.) 31 May 2026 08:03:12
We took the best team in the world to penalties, and on almost any other night would have had our own pen on Noni to potentially win it in 90mins. Massive performance, and one the whole club can be proud of.
10 Jul 2026 17:51:30
Thanks Ed, no worries. I guess we will soon get clarity on everything. Not particularly worried as we still have the same squad that won the PL
18 May 2026 10:21:10
He still has an error in him every now and then, but his overall performance covers for that, and so far such errors haven't proved costly.
13 May 2026 10:02:49
It will be the save that won us the trophy.
01 Jul 2025 18:18:41
I think we will get Eze, Rodrygo and Sesko.
16 Jun 2025 17:07:18
Thanks Ed, same thoughts regarding him taking a step down by going to either. It will be good for us to get one of Rodrygo, Eze or Gordon. Can take a punt on Grealish with loan.

Yes, Sally, good day for the Arsenal players, big Gabi providing a superb cross and Martinelli finishing well for the winner!
05 Jun 2026 20:45:59
SY, I know you are critical of Vic, but he has done fine for his first season, also taking into consideration that our overall play didn't suit his style. He will be on fire next season if we start moving the ball quicker. We do need another striker though.
05 Jun 2026 10:59:53
But Vlahovic won't offer anything different, he is very similar to Vic. So we will end up with two strikers with same strengths and identical hairstyles. ?
04 Jun 2026 18:11:59
In that category (squad depth and more experience) , Harvey Barnes could be a good shout.
04 Jun 2026 18:11:09
He is a good player, though. Not sure he is an upgrade on Martinelli or Trossard, and Everton will demand money, as he has a substantial period left on his contract, so expensive for a squad player.
