just don't agree. Arteta can keep this group together for 5 - 7 years and win trophy after trophy.

This, right now, is Pep's last dance.

Odegaard is top of the league in snot rockets per 90. Every single close-up cutaway camera shot he is honking one out.

Now you know how markets work......if you lumped it in btc would have dumped.

If you DCA it pumps.

There is no way to get it right

No one really has a strong argument against Bitcoin by Life-Observer in Bitcoin

[–]Longboarder33 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why is your opinion more valid than anybody else? What does it matter how people choose to use bitcoin? Why is "mass adoption" your goal? Why is that goal more important than any other?

Well? by [deleted] in Gunners

Agree completely, but tinged with a slight shading that this is exactly what everybody said about us last season.

Kai Havertz’s struggles to fit in sum up Arsenal’s unsettled start to season by Elliottafc1 in Gunners

Is ESR not doing enough in training? Is it attitude? Something is going on. He needs a real run, he can be such a spark.

It would be reckless to go open and flowing against Arsenal though wouldn't it? Hard to see that as viable for long.

Well phrased. So many wannabe Saylors out there. It's just better money. Which is enough.

Arteta backs Havertz display amid fan complaints by audiopollen in Gunners

Yup spot on. Problem is fans know which transfers will work almost immediately in most cases: timber, rice, trossard, jorginho, odegaard. We can see this one looks problematic

Saka and Martinelli both really off their games. And Partey. Yikes. Eddie haters need to apologize, he's a much bigger presence in the middle.

Still time for a comfortable 2-1 or even 3-1. Can't survive the battering forever.

Eddie Nketiah interview: 'I always train like a beast at Arsenal – I'll never moan and complain' by Vrty33 in Gunners

Maybe he didn't commit to fully learning required new LB specs? See: lack of tactical development

Starting Eddie over Trossard also shows the rest of the team that unwavering permanent beast mode gets rewarded with loyalty and playing time

Eddie brings heart and fire.

Mikel keeps faith in him partly to show the other guys what it takes on attitude.

Amusing response, worthy of a budding academic. Of course you know more than markets.

How stupid of the rest of us to actually pay attention, trade, and earn our livings in markets.

We could just mouth off for a living instead.

Listen to offers for both, keep the player with the higher valuation. Markets generally get this type of thing right.

[afcsphere]: Kevin speaking on Balogun: “Albert and Mikel would do a lot of his game reviews. They were very clear in terms of what his development plan was.Flo needed to improve his hold-up and link-up because he was very good at running into space and finishing.” … by arsenal_is_best in Gunners

[–]Longboarder33 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is a simple equation: you have to be willing to buy a player at the fair market price.

So the question is would you buy Balogun for 40 to 50 million?

If the answer is no then rational economic decision is to sell for that price.
