He was like half that price a week ago until Atletico started bidding and now Commisso thinks he’s a fast-speaking auctioneer.
Are any of the players arsenal bought actually good at football? Ben White is a laughingstock Aaron Ramsdale has been relegated like 5x The best thing anyone can say about Odegaard is that he’s young They bought some dude from Portugal who straight up makes out with his dog And some Belgium dude Yikes
To be fair to Ben Shite he would likely make the match day 18 for most top six clubs in the championship arsenal planning for future seasons is an improvement over recent years so fair play to them
We were linked with Shite last season when we were decimated by injuries, but weren't paying that price for someone that would be behind Nat Phillips with everyone healthy
Considering it seems like they can’t figure out how to play ings watkins Bailey and Buendia together while not getting skullfucked in the midfield I don’t think jwp is what they needed jwp with grealish drawing fouls would be legit I want cantwell and a dm but it sounds like they’re done
I took the beginning portion of your message regarding fitting all those attackers/wingers into a lineup, as you guys had plenty of them. Cantwell is good, I was just confused
According to transfermarkt Cantwell has two years left on his deal. Can't see Norwich selling him this late, as I assume they want to at least try and stay up this time. I imagine they'll sell him next summer.
Yeah, last time they clearly planned on going down, but wanted the money to stabilize and come right back up. So the plan worked. Against Liverpool, they weren't trying to be as attacking as they were 2 years ago, but I thought they still played well. They have Covid issues in preseason. I know Pukki got it, and lost muscle mass when he was sick. Luckily for them they start the season with Liverpool, City, and Leicester before the international break. So any points they get would be found money while they try get up to speed.
i'm going to post this now and then bump it on sunday: what do you think the conversation was like between arsenal and brighton when arsenal called arsenal: hey we are interested in signing one of your center backs. brighton: which one? arsenal: ben white brighton: oh hmm ok? arsenal: our opening bid is 40m lbs brighton: brb can i call you back in 5 minutes ***everyone in the entire city of brighton laughs uncontrollably for 5 minutes*** brighton: ok we are back ***background laughter*** but ummm since you're opening bid is 40 we are going to hold out for 50 ***uncontrollable giggling*** brighton calls ben shite: brighton: hey ben arsenal just bid 40m lbs for you. ben shite: do you have the wrong number i'm sure you meant to call dunk and/or webster. brighton: no i'm not kidding. this actually happened. ben shite: uhhhhh what? i am ben shite! brighton: we told them 50 but if they say no we are going to accept the 40m edu on a ski doo: brighton you drive a hard baragin but ok 50m lbs it is **ben shite shows up at arsenal training ground** arteta: wait we thought you were the other one
