Ornstein rumour - we are asking about Malick Fofana now. However, we don't want to pay anything near the €40m asking price.

SY4

What do I know? Played 12 games last season due to ankle surgery! Injury prone, so get him a bed in the Abou Diaby Suite, and while he's there, draw him a picture of what a goal looks like! Happy to eat humble pie though COYG. ?‍♂️


2.) 31 Aug 2026 22:11:22
Ndiaye was "begging" the Premier League champions to sign him.
: "Waited all day to understand if Mikel wants him or not."

Now signed for City - don't we want an attacker, judging by today & last year?

Probably pay it safe & sign no one & get a defender. ?


3.) 31 Aug 2026 22:26:50
Anyone else find it odd Viktor doesn't get a run out? COYG


4.) 01 Sep 2026 05:52:38
Good win today. Clean sheet, no shots on target against. A very difficult team to play against, with great fans. They won't lose too many home games.


5.) 01 Sep 2026 08:12:44
Mate, I'm a Liverpool fan and honestly you can't say that we are closing deals. It's panic stations outside because we can't close any. Just pop by the Liverpool page if you want to see what the general sense is among the fan base. You're a much better run club than we are atm.


6.) 01 Sep 2026 11:16:21
Fofana is on his way to Sunderland.


 

 

31 Aug 2026 12:23:11
Late move for Iliman Ndiaye to fill the LW void. We do need two good options first, both flanks, if last season told us anything. It would be odd to not replace Trossard and Martinelli; otherwise our attack has gone backwards and that’s where we needed to add. Plus replace Jesus.

SY4

1.) 31 Aug 2026 12:52:42
Could Merino cover Jesus? Not in the horse breeding sense, obviously. ? Third striker? COYG.


2.) 31 Aug 2026 13:57:21
Lol - he could offer a goal threat from the bench, but Martinelli offered pace & 6 Champions League goals. We need something & we had Merino last year, so feels backwards still.


3.) 31 Aug 2026 15:32:18
My fault, I assumed we were replacing Martinelli! Merino to cover the 4 or 5 games Jesus played (420 ish minutes) . COYG. Definitely backwards if we don't replace Martinelli.


4.) 31 Aug 2026 15:50:53
Then Kroupi in the winter window..

Looking forward to tonight's game - gotta be a good time to play Villa. Get that game out of the way.


5.) 31 Aug 2026 16:35:03
Possibly looking for more game time for Dowman? Saka, Noni, and Eze can all play on the left.

Just a thought as to why we would let Martinelli go and not replace him, if, of course, we don't replace him, as there is obviously still time to do that if the club are already pursuing options away from the eye of media.

Not long to wait now before we know for sure. ?


6.) 31 Aug 2026 16:58:28
No desire of seeing more of Noni, esp on LW. His stats are poor & not much end product. He's more frustrating than Martinelli. Eze is too lazy out there, & laid back. Those options don't thrill me. ?


7.) 31 Aug 2026 17:10:46
I think, like always, we ultimately just have to wait and see how things actually work out on the pitch as the season progresses, mate.


8.) 31 Aug 2026 17:44:42
Well, plenty of attackers are being signed, so I'd ask, what are we doing.. Matias Fernandez-Pardo, Newcastle, Chelsea purchased, Liverpool purchased, Real got their man, Spurs buying.. we are selling. ?

Agree, Gunner, but a bit of movement wouldn't be bad. We needed attackers this window.

Welcome to Arsenal, Konsa

Now let's sharpen the attack.

SY4

1.) 19 Aug 2026 01:19:57
Have we signed him.


2.) 19 Aug 2026 14:50:50
Ornstein saying it's close, Stephen.


3.) 19 Aug 2026 21:54:10
Nice, that would be good. No seeling skelly though.

Selling, I meant.

Brian .

"According to widespread reports in August 2026, Arsenal's leadership launched an opening bid for Aston Villa defender Ezri Konsa that was valued at just slightly over half of Villa's £60 million asking price. "


Get a grip if we want to sign players before start of season.

SY4

1.) 10 Aug 2026 12:05:35
Only my opinion but I don't listen to 'widespread reports' and don't take them as gospel. In widespread reports Mr Berta seems to have done and is doing a good / excellent job of building a yes Title Winning squad who lost CL on penalties. Should have bought Ray Stewart and Le Tissier and we'd have won it. I know we are joking about this Sy but I'm glad Mr Berta is doing his thing and not listening to knee jerk scattergun media driven opinions from those nowhere near the actual transfer process.

Even on here there is not a consensus. If Mr Berta doesn't buy Alvarez has he failed? He may offer £130 mill ( for a player who wants Barca) and still won't get the signature. Don't forget we aren't an oil club or one that cheats by paying agents bucketloads - we can't just offer £150 mill and get the player. Did he fail with Vinicius Junior? Was never going to happen. I'm glad we offered £35 mill for Konza. It's a negotiation and I couldn't care less what other clubs think.

There's our offer take it or leave it! If I'm still interested I'll come back with a better offer etc etc. I'm glad we aren't billy big bollox and just pay the full asking price especially for Konza who would warm the bench and only play for a while. Surely look for a loan to cover Mosquera and Saliba or play Calafiori or Hincapie! I know he's right footed but do we need a £60 mill player on the bench? I'm sure most transfers take place in last two weeks of window which shuts in three weeks.

I would think Mr Berta MA and medical staff have chatted and know exactly who is injured for how long and who we need to buy. Until proven otherwise I'm happy to trust their judgement. Apologies for War and Peace COYG
PS I'm liking Tsolis very direct and I'm swayed towards Yildiz ( reseached him) . I'm Team Viktor / Kai with the ammo we have behind and either side of them I'm confident they'll do the job.
Time for Bed!

Man United news: Myles Lewis-Skelly transfer boost as £36m star 'agrees' move


Let's hope not as there's a few I'd rather release than him - he has a lot of energy and forward play in him. Shame if we sell him especially for just 34m .

SY4

1.) 03 Aug 2026 10:43:57
That seems cheap to me, Jesus and the likes need to move on before Skelly.


2.) 03 Aug 2026 11:00:02
Nope, I don't like that rumour at all!


3.) 03 Aug 2026 12:03:42
I don't like either, and it's too cheap. Trouble is, we have Rice, Ode, Bruno, Eze, Zubi, Mikel, Nwaneri, plus MLS for three spaces. Surely Rice, Bruno, and probably Ode are a shoe in to start! But it's a squad game, which, if he's happy, keep him.

Worth way more than £36 mill. If it's United and he wants to go, stick 'em for £70 mill (my value for him) as revenge for RVP. Not that I'm holding a grudge. ? COYG.


4.) 04 Aug 2026 07:19:11
Our squad needs to be deep enough for a full second XI and MLS is a perfect fit for that.
Raya; Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Calafiori; Rice, Bruno, Odegaard; Saka, Havertz, Tzolis

Kepa/Meslier; White, Mosquera, Salmon, Hincapie; Zubi, MLS, Eze; Madueke, Gyokeres, Martinelli

Hincapie and MLS are flexible and can play both LB and another position. I've put Salmon in there, as I think he'll get cup minutes this season, though, if Gabi is out, it'll be Hincapie.

The only question mark to me is if we get Vini - we can afford to shift Martinelli and even Madueke to make room for Vini and Dowman.

I think Max is ready and already better than Madueke, personally. I love Martinelli, but neither he nor Tzolis appear to be an upgrade on Leo (yet) . So, for me, keeping MLS is essential for squad balance and versatility. Nwaneri has more to worry about in terms of being sold.


5.) 07 Aug 2026 12:17:41
Yep, liking that, Wire, and also, as an aside, I have been impressed by Meslier in pre season - much more confident in him than Kepa. COYG.

That was a battle and thanks to Raya we came away with 3 key points. That 3 minute spell could be key come end of the season! Great penalty save, lovely Bruno goal and great fight from many of the boys. Well done!

SY4

 

 

06 Sep 2026 18:52:08
Great win - done strong performances from Raya, Rice, Tzolis, Ode and my fav Kai. Need better options off the bench so hopefully Jan brings a striker and winger. Enjoyed our football today also - well played.

SY4

1.) 06 Sep 2026 19:01:27
Pretty much spot on, Sy, can only hope there is a plan behind not signing a world class CF this summer.


2.) 06 Sep 2026 19:25:19
Gutsy and professional display. Not at his best last season (injured) , but hopefully we can drop the "Ode isn't good enough!" He is! Another goal from Top 15 Kai. ? Seems as though Chelski are still looking for a decent keeper! Well played in an always tough game COYG.


3.) 06 Sep 2026 19:39:50
Professional display, unlucky to concede an early goal, which was the only blemish on a good performance. Raya, again world class, was key to keeping the score at 2-1. Good to see we went for the third goal rather than sit back and protect our lead as soon as we scored the second.


4.) 06 Sep 2026 20:16:02
Ode did have a very good game, Sussex. Let's see how he goes, but that's the first game that I've seen him be more positive, plus a goal for the cherry on the top.

Kai was a little slow at times & should have shot a bit more. Not sure he will give any centre halves sleepless nights. However, he had a very, very good game.

Some nice link up play, a nice dummy, and a decent goal made out of some nice movement. Goalie was a bit poor & not the strongest shot, but I did enjoy watching him and he had a very good game.

Vic concerned me, but by then we had removed his supply & was defending.


5.) 06 Sep 2026 21:05:36
SY, hope you're good, mate. I don't post much, but always enjoy reading the differences in people's opinions (it's what makes things interesting) .
Was that the first game you've watched this season? I only ask because Ode has been immense in the first few games we've played in defending our trophy. Do you not think?
Kai today was fantastic. He might not give defenders sleepless nights, but he should. What a clever player that boy is. He scored our equaliser out of nothing n then, for our winner, a moment of brilliance from him just to dummy the ball (take out two defenders) n give Ode a free go at goal.


A brilliant performance from the team today (Chelsea aren't a pushover) .
Tzolis was fantastic today as well. Looking like an absolute bargain in today's market, by what I've seen of him so far.
Great result. Credit to the lads n gaffer.
Champions, champions, champions.
Who's next. bring it!. ❤️ ?


6.) 06 Sep 2026 21:42:21
Hi Jeg, I could sense the critics hastily sharpening their pencils after 2 minutes once Rogers scored against us. It was a beautiful sound to hear those well-sharpened pencil points snap above the sound of the crowd when Kai scored the equaliser, and then imagine them being thrown away over the critics' shoulders when Ode scored the winner.



Rogers really should have joined a big club rather than settling for a few dollars more by joining a non-European football club.

{Ed025's Note - you are better off without him G62, he is a highlight reel player and in only effective for a very short period in the game mate..


7.) 06 Sep 2026 22:08:58
Hi Ed025 i agree mate. I wasn't disappointed at all when he choose Chelsea for non footballing reasons, they are very welcome to him.

You boys did well to earn a point today mate, what a brilliant job Moyse is doing for you with such limited resources, he's definitely silencing the critics he's collected over the years mate ???

{Ed025's Note - we have got fight and spirit G62..but not much else mate..


8.) 06 Sep 2026 23:07:48
Hi Jegooner, hope you are well.

No, it's certainly not the first game. I watched him in World Cup & for us. He was far more going forward today - not passing behind players and being very safe. Even against Coventry I thought he was not at the right level. Passing behind, slowing the attack, whereas today he looked more progressive & played with more desire. Too many flicks, slow passes & passes behind players, but not so today. He's had a few poor seasons, looked the same at World Cup - slow, too many touches, in circles and not progressive. Not today - he's the key, as he controls the tempo of the game. It's not all on him, but he's key.

Kai played well - we could do with more pace & finesse up front. At times he slowed us down & should have shot. A proper Ian Wright striker would have shot. Let's be honest, it was a scuff finish against a leaky defence, but he did create the chance & a lovely dummy for the winner. He is a very clever player - yes. However, he had a great game, nice touches etc., but he's not keeping defenders up at night, whereas a Henry would.

I'm just keeping it real, Jegooner. I'm a bit torn, as he fits well into the side, but if we are two down - I don't look at Noni, Vic or Kai as our salvation. Perhaps he's a better plan B with a bit of pace off the bench. Maybe he is plan A & we don't have a Wright / Henry type player. He's a decent player - I just want a special, special striker. I think when it really matters we will come up short with Kai / Vic, & that's not an out there opinion as plenty of players etc. would agree.

If both keep up today's standards against better defences - then that's interesting. I genuinely hope so, as I love our club.

Tzolis did have a really good game - picked people out very well in the final 3rd. Worked hard, created chances and did very well. Hope he keeps it up & let's hope he gets another LW to help him.

Sorry if it sounds moaning or ungrateful - just expect high STDs and we are talking about wanting a team to win Champ League & retain EPL. That's elite stuff.


9.) 06 Sep 2026 22:33:10
Fight and spirit are essential ingredients to build on Ed025 mate, without them you've got nothing but ego's robbing a living off your club.
I know you need more players but at least the one's you have a busting a gut for you which is way preferable to having a loads of players who aren't really arsed ?

{Ed025's Note - i cant argue with that G62 mate..


10.) 06 Sep 2026 22:57:39
You've got Ty George ed025 (think I've got the name right) . How brilliant was he today and only 20?! Can you arrange for us to be first in line if he decides to move on lol

And fight and spirit are often enough to win a game ed ?

{Ed025's Note - he has done very well sally and a decent replacement for Ndiaye, we are really short of numbers though mate and if we get injuries we could be in trouble...but heres hoping..


11.) 06 Sep 2026 23:43:42
Perhaps this sums up my Kai challenge and why maybe a better plan B & a world class LW is the solution as you are right Kai is clever and does a lot for the team. You could see that today.

Carragher sums it up far better than me:

"It has to be an Ian Wright, guaranteed 30 goals a season, Thierry Henry. Gyokeres is never taking Havertz's place.
"It's not about how good they are just in attack, it's what they give you for the team. One of the reasons why you can't break Arsenal down as a team is how well they press from the front.
"But then when the opposition get through that, they all get behind the ball, and Havertz is about 25, 30 yards from his goal. You go and ask a world-class striker to do that, a guy who's obsessed with his numbers and his goals to come back and do that, he won't do that.
"When you see Havertz, what he does in terms of both boxes, set-piece wise as well.

Havertz is more of a facilitator, he's not a great goalscorer"
"Mikel Arteta, the type of manager that he is, taking Havertz out of that team and what he does for that team defensively, we talk about how strong they are defensively, no-one can get a shot on target, it's not just the goalkeeper and the back four, that's the whole team.
"So he'd be giving up on, actually, some of his team's defensive solidity, to add a little bit more in the attack, that's the decision every manager has to take."

So maybe Kai is the starter & we get a far better plan B than Vic. Pace & proper CF who really knows where the net is. Our team probably would suffer with an Ian Wright although Henry worked hard.

Maybe Kai is plan A & defenders can sleep well. We need a far better plan B then.

Anyway - 3 great points. ???❤️


12.) 07 Sep 2026 05:37:19
Vic has a really bad first touch, that's what lets him down. He runs in the channels well, but his first touch is terrible.


13.) 07 Sep 2026 08:35:37
I agree, Stephen. I think it's a composure thing rather than a physical ability thing, or otherwise he'd never have made it as a professional footballer.

He needs some help to work on this if he's to fulfill his potential at top level.


14.) 06 Sep 2026 22:49:00
You're welcome for Ainsley Ed025 :) A gift from Hale End! Also last season the Villa page were asking what Rogers had on Emery for him to keep picking him. Even if that was an exaggeration he obviously wasn't pulling up any trees. Jude or Rogers? Whaaaaaat! COYG

{Ed025's Note - it was a great strike SY and it got us out of a hole, Morgan is a highlight reel player who only shows up in very small doses mate, i think you might have dodged a bullet there..

Frank McLintock (outstanding captain, harshly treated by Arsenal at end of career) .
Charlie George (for obvious reasons) .

Charlie Nicholas (superb finisher, came to Arsenal as Arsenal's first superstar) .
Tony Adams (He was the man) .
Martin Keown (everything a defender should be) .

Rocky Rocastle (the words he said: Remember who you are and what you represent) .


Dennis Bergkamp (my wife's all time favourite) .
Patrick Vieira (Awesome, absolutely awesome) .
Thierry Henry (Absolutely no words) .
Robert Pires (Supreme footballer) .
Ashley Cole (best full back ever to play in the prem) .
Robin Van Persie (superb left foot) .

Seaman.
Timber.
Rice.
Gabriel.
Overmars.


2.) 06 Sep 2026 11:34:14
Morning!
So tough leaving some of those players off - Love Silva & Keown - great list. No Freddie? Thought we all loved him with his red hair. ?

Pires was so special to watch & for a team to give him an ovation said it all..

Too hard to name them all.

I agree with you both, you all stake a claim.


4.) 06 Sep 2026 19:03:35
No Stapleton or Nicholas, let alone Lord Bendtner!!


5.) 06 Sep 2026 19:23:51
Hello Sparky, mate, hope you are good.
I did put Charlie Nicholas in, I presume you don't mean Peter. ??
I did toy with Stapleton.
Bendtner. ????


 

 

31 Aug 2026 22:33:50
Kai, Ode and Tzolis showing why we need to address the key positions we haven’t addressed for a number of windows. Viktor not even given the chance to shine. We didn’t really need Bruno (glad we got him) but we really needed a CF and LW but Agsin nothing except selling LWs and CF. Really odd strategy. Other teams acting with intent and ambition.

Come on Brian - others are getting attackers signed, why can’t you! Give us a cutting edge please.

City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Spurs, Real etc getting deals done.

Well done Saka for goal today.

For all those say - here he moans again. I assume you are happy with our ineptness in sorting the attack and banking our entire left wing on Tzolis who has been in a poor league and will need time to/ rest etc.

SY4

1.) 31 Aug 2026 23:42:24
I think we need a lw with pace in behind. We really lacked that tonight.


2.) 01 Sep 2026 00:08:14
Now the two Gabis have gone. We need a left-sided attacker with pace to burn and a striker with an eye for goal, or it could come back and bite us on the backside later on in the season.


3.) 31 Aug 2026 23:48:01
Sy, lad we just won what was one of our banana skin games without playing at our best. Last year we signed one of the highest goal scorer's in Europe (I agree with you in the why isn't he starting or at least getting game time) maybe somethings in the works of a transfer (which I'd be disappointed with as he's had one season with us n helped us win the title.whether that goals against lesser teams or not it still contributed)
You keep crying about we need more than what we've got who's available to get SY? Who in the real world can we get up top or at LW? It's a small pool to pick from n the ones that are are already at the top teams in Europe.


You keep saying your pish winning is winning but did we not win the league after 22 years just? .did we not win our first two games of this defending our title season?
Lad give it a rest eh.


4.) 01 Sep 2026 07:25:23
Morning Jegooner, I'm sure plenty LWs & attackers have been secured this window.. I get your point. Yes, we won. Villa were depleted, but we won. Enjoy your week. Thanks for the reply.


5.) 01 Sep 2026 07:46:24
The really weird thing is Villa fans, neutrals, and pundits were all raving about how strong our squad is and the insane quality we had on our bench last night.


6.) 01 Sep 2026 09:06:34
It's a funny ol game, John, isn't it?


7.) 01 Sep 2026 10:14:33
It certainly is, Bill, mate. ?


8.) 01 Sep 2026 14:44:07
Many are saying we need offensive additions & no question our depth is good, but we need better quality upfront. Villa aren't our yardstick either.


9.) 01 Sep 2026 17:53:58
We ain't getting no one, unless we do. It's been a bad window for me. Not got the players we needed at the start.


 

 

23 Aug 2026 10:08:33
“Arsenal would like to improve their frontline further. That is why they are so keen on Julian Alvarez, but I’m not sure Alvarez is so keen on a move back to England and that could be the problem.”
"I think if push came to shove, Atletico Madrid would do a deal to Arsenal - as opposed to Barcelona, the doors are closed there. They like Kenan Yildiz, but the doors are closed from Juventus.”


Raya, Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Calafiori.


Rice, Guimaraes, Odegaard.
Yildiz, Osimhen, Saka.

Wow! That’s an attack that matches our midfield and defence… Sure that front line would demand faster passing and reward it too…

COYG - it would require some good strong people management with many strong players in bench and not even in squad. Hopefully we clear the deck also. Would allow good rotation to avoid injuries.

Something positive should have happened - I'm glad you got your strong balance sheet 62. But that won't win the league & we may not get as easy route to the final or get so many goals from corners. So weakening our main weakness is just stupid., slow & lump sums up this very poor window

Why make the job harder than it needs to be by dithering in the market when we should be strengthening our hold. Most people looking at our team see the strength in the squad but the weakness in the starting 11 - anyone watching sees it, even me. We needed a Lw & CF same old story yet the people with the rose tinted glasses mock the ones who point out the glaring weaknesses. We could still win but why make it harder by selling & not buying! Stupid - limp slow Brian

Ed025 - hope you are well. Yep, that would be for sure but I don't think he's good enough to replace Kai though. Arteta seems to be intent on not giving Vic much time this year. Hope we don't reduce his market value.

{Ed025's Note - i think him and Kai are at about the same level SY, Vic,s market value is around £12m imo mate..

How did Vic play?

Great seeing Max score.

Just read "When Gyokeres struggled to settle in this side for large periods of last season, the generous argument in his favour was that Arsenal were not playing to his strengths.
On current evidence, it is hard to make a case for what those strengths would be. His touch is regularly incredibly poor and he cannot combine with team-mates in tight areas. Nor is he finding space in the box and providing those selfish striker qualities that would make up for other shortcomings.
When crosses came into the box, Gyokeres was either wrestling with a defender elsewhere or just not moving."

Was that harsh on him? Confidence must be rock bottom .

Interesting seeing all last year's signings on the bench not starting!! Zube, Noni, Vik & Eze.

Good to see Timber back.

3 points required & expected.

Hope you are good, Richy. I always felt sorry for Granit that Wenger never put the right player next to him. He & a Gilberto would have been good.
