Right. Except poor old Jurrien; he'll be like a new signing :-\

Well, apparently we've just sacked our chief quack so we probably don't need to buy any new players at all. If you follow me ... :sherlock:

Fortunately, we cannot afford any of those people. We do still get to plead poverty when it suits us :-)

Our attack is fine. Everybody has simply mis-represented what it's supposed to be doing. Basically, Mikel has pretty much fooled everyone, really...

Fair enough. I don't want to speculate about who we should sign and whom we ought to sell. Let Mikel cook, as they say.

Despite the rough, boorish exterior, I always knew you were a soppy, schmaltzy romantic at heart. However, Viktor is fine. We've needed a player...

Chicken feed. For comparison, it costs us about ?200 million a year just to host football matches, even before you start paying people to...

Yes, I suspect it's more that people think he is an asset we could make a few quid out of. Silliness. We are not that football club anymore!

That's actually where the whole club began to go wrong; when we stopped signing players from Leicester :-)

That might work. The strong feeling here, somewhat surprisingly, is that Arteta must be something of a genius manager to have won the Premier League...

Excellent signing, imo; behaved very well.

The old Net Spend MacGuffin. Nobody cares about that. It's sunk costs, the money's gone. We'll deal with it.

No way we're selling any player after just one season, in any case.

Outstanding post, R. Another one for the Classics Archive, if we still did that sort of thing around here. Well played.

Maybe he's a good tourist. You need one experienced player of that sort, like Poldi for Germany.

Wow. That about being the only remaining winner of the Premier League is incredible, a staggering testament to the project the Arsenal have built. ...

Yeah I did think about Slot. Different matter entirely. Essentially he achieved too much too quickly, before anyone at Anfield really knew if his...

I suspect Mikel has a different idea on what bravery is. He's just won the Premier League by keeping clean sheets and defending about a dozen...

:banghead: It made all the difference in the world! You cannot have forgotten we won the Premier League just a fortnight ago? Fortunately, one of...

Yeah, we do all need to lose the idea that football is somehow against money coming into the game, from anywhere and from anybody. The rules on that...

It very much is personal, as it is with Manchester City. It's the Qatar/Abu Dhabi/Dubai Derby. Oddly enough, The UAE doesn't really care which of...

Yes. Oddly enough, that's what we are. that's exactly what the Arsenal Football Club is! I'm not sure football has ever demanded perfection, from...

Nobody wants to allow Mikel, and even our board any credit :-\

Henley is a raging leftie. Right up until the point his own money enters the chat and he turns into Gordon Gecko. Naturally :-\

Yes, he does. Standard forty medals for the club to hand out at their discretion with more available on request. As you say, with six appearances,...

Yes, that's league football. That's how it works! To misquote Chico Marx, "We only won because we finished first." That'll do.

I could remind you that you've been saying that for years. But I won't :-) Anyway, nobody is assuming that! Except perhaps you and Bunnell.

Well, quite. The nonsense seems to stem from the idea that to solve a problem we have, in fact, just solved, we need to do more of the things we were...

Steady on, gents. Ze Chermans just won us the Premier League :-\

I don't actually disagree, but we ARE champions and I would have been perfectly happy to take home the trophy last Saturday night as well.
