Arteta: “We are actively looking in the market to improve the squad. That’s been like that since day one. It would be naive not to do that. It’s an opportunity to improve the squad. We are looking. We are trying. Let’s see what we can do.”

Arteta on Jesus: "We know more now and it’s not looking good at all, but we need to review one more specialist. I don’t want to confirm anything until we have the final report, but we were very worried after the game and we are very worried today."


Arteta confirms Riccardo Calafiori’s injury is NOT long-term.

He also confirms Jurrien Timber and Jorginho were suffering from cramp and they’re both fine for Tottenham. ✅

He was actively looking in the market for a new striker a few years ago and decided that no one round Europe could be an upgrade on Eddie Nketiah and handed him a 100K a week :shock:
In Arteta we trust :lol:

This ends in defeat and a massive fallout
As anyone with a single brain cell declared as soon as Nketiah left, we have two striking options- Havertz and Jesus. Hardly inspiring to start with and the obvious point being that a single injury in that position leaves you with one option over 4 competitions, heaven help us if you get 2 injuries

Of course, wankpot decided that bringing Merino in was the priority because Rice, Partey and Jorginho just wasn't enough to start with

So here we are in a world we could all see happening

Arsenal 1 Spuds 2

Expect we will win on xG and corners though, so every cloud

First man of the match in his fledgling career for Archie Gray at centre half. Enters the centre halves hall of fame with Maguire and Dan Burn

If we can't beat this shower that's really it.. struggled Vs Tamworth FFS . They are in as much crisis as we are bar the fluke over victims. Awful team yet we are so turgid. Mixed emotions can't be losing to them but as others said lose lose, win and sheep think all is ok. Draw.

Think about it:

if IF Partey is at RB and they play Pot Poodle on the left flank; which they have been doing lately, even having lost a yard of pace... Pot Poodle will waltz past the slow brained, slow moving Car-park Footed (©DB) Twat! :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

As bad as recent performances have been and the lack of a forward I still think we will beat these cunnts, mainly just because they are cunnts.

2-1

I'd play Tierney to provide the width on the left as Trossard is more of an inside forward than an out and out winger. That will overload their defence.

I'd also use Timber when a defender goes forward to overload the midfield. Tierney well capable of tucking in as LCB.

Shall we remind ourselves what we're up against tonight. Is it the form team of the PL like Newcastle......err no. Is it a team like Man U with a new manager bounce effect.....err no

Is it a team with 1 point from 12 in the Premier League, and that one being a home 2-2 draw against Wolves. Err....yes
Is it a team who in those 4 games have shipped 11 goals, playing a third choice keeper and an entire makeshift backline. Err.....yes
Is it a team who needed an own goal to spare their blushes after 100 minutes playing against a team ranked 96 places below them. Err....yes

Who will be missing from our first choice starting line up tonight - oh yeah White (and is he better than Timber) and Saka.

Sorry I forgot a load of shitty fringe players like Jesus and Tomiyasu are out injured

No excuses. Win comfortably or all fuck off

Third choice keeper has been replaced by a new signing and he looked quite decent....NOT That that matters... But If we score first we go on and win , if they score first we struggle to equalise...

It's the titanic clash between the resistable force and the movable object.

One team can't attack, the other can't defend
