Someone said the American goalie can’t kick past the half way line :banghead:

No wonder he didn’t play NFL…useless punting or kicking field goals.

Sad times…we’ve been gutted like fish, thrown to wolves, sent to prison without any Vaseline…all that…brutal….yet Xhaka is still here. Man is a cockroach…full on nuclear war and he survives.

I was expecting in the end times he’d be dead or something.

[Arsenal Alcoholic Review]

Looking at this deal more closely. The management must have zero faith in this chap. When you actually look at our squad we barely have enough players to full the subs bench.

First 11.

Our 7 subs.

Leno
Taveres
Holding
ESR
Elneny
Pepe
Nketiah

Now we've barely got fcuk all after that.

cedric, Lokonga who has first team experience then Patio and a few toddlers and schoolboys. There's literally nothing of note. Does Biereth look amazing in training or something?

And this in the covid era where we're missing about 2 players a game due to that. Add injuries and suspensions and we might have to promote some of the ladies team into the first team. Shocking stuff.

This American player was guaranteed by default to be on the bench at least every game. Baffling stuff altogether.

[Tony C]

I honestly don’t know how we’ve ended up back in a situation where a couple injuries and it’s Xhaka in the back line again.

The strategy is doable but requires perfect coaching from Arteta and a significant amount of improvement, perfect play and no suspensions or injuries from the players every game until the end of the season.

It won’t work and they have only themselves to blame.

Arteta and Edu must be praying for another mystery variant so he can have the remaining games behind closed doors because the atmosphere will be the most toxic yet.

[Arsenal Alcoholic Review]

I think Eleney is a much better choice at the back. He's looked solid there before although played on the right of a back 3.

An injury to Lacca is the big worry. He's essential to how we play. If he gets a big injury i'd see us struggling to get into the revamped intertoto cup nevermind the CL.

I just don't understand why we didn't just bring in a stop gap target man who could cover coming on for the last 10 or 20 mins. Lacca is knackered every game he plays and is subbed off. We're gonna be fecked. I would have even taken the big 6'6 donkey fella Burnley signed for 12m who averaged a one in two goal ratio in **** leagues. That has to be better than nothing.

Even if he was a complete flop you sale him on and you haven't lost much. It's worth it to go for the extra CL big money. Areteta/Edu certainly aren't gamblers anyway. As a betting man you'd probably know the rough odds better than me. Going into the window i would have said we were at least evens to make the CL as well as being in the cups. After this shambles I'd say we're about 3/1 now at best to make the CL.

[Tony C]

I saw us at 6/4 to make the top 4 a few weeks back.

Now 13/5

So from a 40% chance to a 28% chance now.

Hmm you know Wolves at 33/1 could be the bet…been going about their business quietly.

Spurs at 6/4 is too short and apart Kane are largely rubbish
United 6/4 as well but they are in disarray and were harbouring a rapist
West Ham 12/1 are on life support with no new players which they desperately needed

Just leaves us at 13/5 with a depleted squad and Wolves at 33/1.

Bet placed:

Single
English Premier League Outrights 2021/2022 - Top 4 Finish
Wolves
33/1
Stake:
£20.00
Potential Returns:
£680.00

Happy with that…next 4 games should be fun to watch…Arsenal at home, Spurs away, Leicester are home then West Ham away.

I'm wild guessing that you are going to see Pepe come on for Laca ... hey, he can't be worse than Yaya Sanogo. Arteta has a dark sin bin where people are buried with no ray of light ... then he resurrects them. Shirley he's seen him in AFCON and can figure out how to build on that. Subbing for Laca would completely change up how we attack. It just might work! or not.....

NO way is this an endorsement, only my observation, but Turner is an excellent shotstopper with very good positioning for crosses, etc. He doesn't hide under the net like Ospina. The only negative is that he isn't adept at distributing the ball, a bit Petr Cech- like right now.

However despite his age he is an ascending talent. I reckon Arteta is counting on him being 'coached up' regarding playing out the back. He will be content to play the Milk Cup/FA Cup games and won't be a bother. He's much better in a traditional 'keeper sense than Steffen - Pep's American #2. In fact Steffen will be hard pressed to get back the USA #1.

btw, it appears that MLS is becoming a training ground for Euro leagues and the EPL. I reckon you'll see MLS become more of a training ground for Central and South American players with dreams of moving to the soccerball majors (EPL, Bundesliga, etc.) If true Colorado Rapids could be like our 'reserve' team for such prospects.

Back Wolves at 33/1 and cash out as soon as they beat Arsenal at home next might be smart betting. That result might get them down to 15/1.

I haven't watched the Afcon but TC's been banging on about playing Pépé up front all season.

However, WES and I have been banging on about playing both Odin and ESR central at 8 and 10 between them, yet that's been tried twice and not really worked.

Yeah - agreeing with the Canadian ****wit never ends well, gg

Did you see the cricket the other day?

Watched the final day of the Aus-Eng Women’s test.

Never seen anything like it before.

Australia win and England Win were both 50/1 at one point then odds on
The draw was as low as 1/50 then up to 20/1 before coming back in.

These women are lunatics imo

And I’m saying this again…I’m not a fan of women playing with shortened boundaries…them was some playground dimensions they had there.

Listened to a bit on the radio - it was great that they made a game of it. Didn't see the boundaries but there should definitely be a minimum. Didn't one player become the first to hit back to back 6s in women's Tests :hehe:

I reckon we'll loan him out and try to sell him for a decent profit in 2-3 years. Dont think he's necessarily part of plans unless he impress during a loan spell and maybe becomes 4th or 5th choice.

He's left footed which is valuable if he has decent pace and a good head on him.

Why wont these retards listen to me? I'd have taken a big fella who can drop deep and link it up for peanuts any day of the week.:-\

Imagine Martineli/ESR and Saka playing off this big brute?

Latest odds / history

Arsenal - 13/5 now 11/10
United - 6/4 now 23/10
Spurs - 6/4 now 100/30
West Ham - 12/1 now 7/1
Wolves 33/1 now 17/1

I’ll let my £20 on Wolves ride…hopefully 9/9 points coming up from Leicester at home, Us at the Emirates and West Ham away.

I think…

5 out of 9 and they’re still in with a chance
6 or 7 out of 9 and they’re bang in it
9/9 would make them favourites

Either way…no point me cashing out £20 now.
