There can only be One reason why Edu & Capt Black are trying to sign all these shyte players - Their agents must have pictures of Edu Rimming Captain Black whilst the latter sucks Edu's smelly cheese stick.
What happened with Mat Ryan, ffs i thought he was out of contract and available for a free at the end of last season surely he would have been a better option that fucking Ramsdale
FFS he went to Real Sociedad on a free transfer and we are looking to pay £30M for the Sheffield Utd relegated twat..... our club is fucking corrupt
THE Arsenal are in the hands of Totally Incompetent and Utterly Corrupt C.U.N.T.S
As for Martinelli thats exactly where he needs to be
No Martinelli on the left not that useless chav prick. He can do one completely imo
How come we can see it and Edu (who is getting paid a fortune cant)
As for Martinelli, if this season is not his breakthrough, it will surely be the biggest waste of talent since Wenger fucked up Arshavin
My opinion on Martinelli is that the club see him as a central striker but he needs more gametime in the position to learn and develop. Arteta said as much last season.
The biggest boost to Gabby's chances would be to sell Auba as that's what's stunting his progress. I believe their roles in the team are very similar.
Yes thats true Clummo...but I dont trust what arteta says...my opinion is he just dont like Martinelli
Jack Wilshere told the Highbury Squad that he is ‘surprised’ at the lack of game time Gabriel Martinelli has been receiving at Arsenal.
The 20-year-old was an under-used figure by Mikel Arteta last season and Wilshere thinks the Arsenal youngster has qualities ‘you can’t teach’.“I feel he will only get better with experience of playing in the big games. I do think he is a player who will thrive off having the fans back.
“I remember the game at Chelsea when he scored that goal. He just got better and better as the game went on and the fans got behind him. I am excited to see more of him.”
I'm looking forward to crowds back too so arteta is hounded out of the club
Can't happen soon enough...Mind you the dullard wiggy cuntt would then opt to appoint Edu as manager!
I hate giving credit, but whoever talked all the youngsters into signing their souls away needs a pat on the back, some if our best prospects tied down is good business.......
Unfortunately the natural cynic in me wonders if this just a ploy to enable the club to get serious cash for them in a season or two rather than long term intent to rebuild the squad and club
And tbh that is a perfectly valid point - so far this summer it has been reported that the club are trying to get Nelson and nketieh to sign new deals so that the club can demand a bigger transfer fee, but kudos to the players cos both them them to fcuk off
Fuck me , I knew we you lot were miserable bastards but we've just tied down five of our best youngsters for years on long term deals and you're still looking for reasons to moan or distrust. They obviously feel they want to play for Arteta so you have to give him some credit.
We have a great base to build on now , hopefully we'll tie down Azeez as well and get some experience in midfield and a quality right back , Max Aarons would be great.
Why look for a positive when you can conjure up a negative and have a good moan.
Majority on here are definitely glass half empty.
My optimistic outlook on Arsenal this season is as follows:
Wenger and Pat Rice return 10 games in after Arteta is sacked with us mired in the relegation zone. He brings back Eboue, Denilson and Bendtner out of retirement and we go on a 28 game unbeaten run to come top 4. The Board rewards with him a 10 year contract.
The truth will be somewhere in between the doom mongers and that though.
In recent times there hasn't been too much to be pleased with but signing up our best youngsters on long term deals is certainly something to be happy about.
Things aren't currently as good as they were under early GG or early AW but Christ they aren't half as bad as some suggest.

ESR best signing of the summer whoever we buy now
Ok lets put things in some perspective here, we are NOT some 2 bit club with a high profile manager that will attract the best players - we are The Arsenal and the majority of players would want to play for us regardless of who the manager is
Secondly, I have no doubt that if pep's cone boy gets his wish he will sign an attacking midfielder - I dont know whether that will be odegarrd or madison or whoever, but the upshot will see smith-rowe being put out of position on the wing. The second knock on effect of that move which people dont see, is that smith-rowe out on the wing will see martinelli screwed AGAIN this season, cos at least 3 players will be ahead of him for those positions (saka, pepe and smith-rowe), and auba and laca will be ahead of him for the number 9 spot
It's all very well lauding these deals cos we all want those young players to stay, but if pep's cone boy doesnt actually play them, then they will look to leave new contract or not
