As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
It's strange when you think about it that Arsenal are so quick to say that they don't have the money for any transfers yet they throw millions of ££s to players that they don't need to. Auba, Ozil, Kolasinac, Bellerin, Walcot etc etc etc

4 of the top 20 earners in Premier League are at Arsenal (Partey £250k/week, PEA £250k/week, Willian £200k/week, Lacazette £180k/week). Also throw in all those pocketing £100k/week plus. Ironically, the best two players namely Smith Rowe and Saka are only earning around £20k/week.
Wage bill is something like £145m/annum which is about the same as Man City, Liverpool, Chelsea and Spurs. Leicester and West Ham have wage bills about half that of Arsenal
Anyone else notice how much better we were going forward when Willian went off?
It's hardly a coincidence that we never look like scoring when he comes on from the bench, or starts a game.
It was almost instant wasn't it! Honestly, the bloke is stealing a living, albeit he isn't the only one. I'm even more concerned with the £45m we spent on Partey who was nothing short of disgraceful again
We'll scrape through something like 2-1 on the night or 2-2. We won't get thrashed until the semi final or of course, the final.
I too have this feeling we'll scrape through to the semi final before getting a hiding or maybe even the final before we get a hiding but I reckon this campaign ends for us with a proper good old ass raping...
