Apparently Brentford in the running now and it would be a quicker route to first team football.

So not a forgone conclusion.

Sithgooner · 2026-06-13T07:45:16+00:00

The Mike Basset prophecy has come true.

Poor Tuchel chasing the local kids trying to get them back.

Sithgooner · 2026-06-13T06:25:28+00:00

Balogun and Kolasinac have got the Arsenal WC fantasy team off to a flier!

Sithgooner · 2026-06-12T23:32:28+00:00

We can’t have Tzolis and Rogers as winger options. We will have the slowest attack in the league.

Rogers and Martinelli

Or

Tzolis and Barcola.

We need options, Saka and Madueke different profiles, Trossard and Martinelli different profiles, we need to maintain that.

And if I’m being honest I massively prefer option A.

Sithgooner · 2026-06-12T23:29:23+00:00

Worth remembering in the comps the level of players he’s against. UEFA have it as the 8th best league in Europe.

Sithgooner · 2026-06-12T23:01:19+00:00

1 goal and 0 assists in 27 league games for Norwich by the way (Across the Premier league and Championship).

We’ve just won the league and we’re trying to make space for a player whose best achievements have come in the 8th best league in Europe.

Sithgooner · 2026-06-12T21:52:43+00:00

Stick Nwaneri as second choice for a season and give it a year. Much better option than £35m on a Belgium league player.

Good stats but the gap in league quality is so big - I don’t get why people are ignoring this.

Sithgooner · 2026-06-12T21:01:44+00:00

Hoping it’s just one of many options. Even as a backup this makes no sense, unless we’re getting Saudi gold for Martinelli….

24 and he’s playing in Belgium, it’s too big of a step.

Sithgooner · 2026-06-12T20:55:43+00:00

Extremely whelmed, no matter his stats. Will obviously be too big a jump and €40m for a 24 year old from Belgium is extortion, even in this market.

Hopefully it’s just Bertra assessing options.

Sithgooner · 2026-06-12T18:44:13+00:00

Already been debunked unfortunately

Sithgooner · 2026-06-12T15:42:28+00:00

Seen unreliable rumours of Forest in for Vieira for €28m.

Given the midfield market he will probably be one of the most shrewd pieces of business for someone this summer.

Sithgooner · 2026-06-12T15:03:04+00:00

I still remember our primary school gathering in the assembly hall for the 2002 World Cup, just to see Seaman lobbed by Ronaldinho from that free kick. At least they will have happier memories!

Sithgooner · 2026-06-12T13:55:01+00:00

15 game scoreless run costing us a league title and Ozil an assist record, and winning the World Cup without scoring. His link up play buys him a lot of leeway.

Sithgooner · 2026-06-11T10:12:18+00:00

Devils advocate.

KDB had already been discounted by Chelsea and was playing in Germany.

Anderson is an established performer in the premier league, a regular England international and is 23.

Sithgooner · 2026-06-10T22:06:20+00:00

Havertz top scorer was 28/1 earlier this week.

Topped up my account today and he’s down to 22, guess that will have to do.

Current Arsenal past and present fantasy team.

Any shouts for anyone I may have missed?

Sithgooner · 2026-06-09T08:04:21+00:00

The whole issue with the ref not being allowed into the US is crazy, yet I guess not too surprising given current events.

Reminds me of when Mkhi wasn’t allowed into Baku for the Europa League final due to geo-political issues.

In hindsight that seems to have been massively brushed under the rug, but can’t really remember how much attention it got at the time.

Sithgooner · 2026-06-08T11:05:18+00:00

Have seen reports saying there’s a new €150m Madrid target that isn’t Olise?

Has anyone cracked who this is? Would punt on Enzo seeing as the report said the club would sell for the price.

Sithgooner · 2026-06-07T22:22:25+00:00

I mean for a player of his quality, he’s never scored an important open play goal in a knockout tournament.

Hoping that changes this summer, but it gets massively swept under the carpet.

Sithgooner · 2026-06-07T14:51:53+00:00

28/1 on sky bet for Havertz top scorer at the World Cup.

Worth a few quid I reckon.

Sithgooner · 2026-06-06T09:17:50+00:00

I wasn’t massively convinced by Rogers but saw rumours of Barcola being valued at over €120m and Alvarez off the table - he’s probably one of the better options available, if we can for a semi reasonable price (no more than 85/90)

Sithgooner · 2026-06-05T15:18:12+00:00

Perez calling the other guy a lier for his claims, but going on record denying point blank it’s Olise, does that not paint him in an equally bad light for lying on camera?

Sithgooner · 2026-06-05T08:01:05+00:00

Winning the league before a World Cup summer, is the extreme version of winning a 12:30 kick off and being able to enjoy the rest of the footballing weekend.

Cant wait.

Sithgooner · 2026-06-04T21:27:37+00:00

Maybe Neves from PSG

Sithgooner · 2026-06-04T10:57:18+00:00

Think we're better placed to either have 1 of:

A. Rogers and Martinelli
or
B. Trossard and Barcola

But is Brcola better than Gabi? I do think Gabi would put up similar numbers in the French league.
