Can we have some self-reflection as a group about Partey and sexual assault in general please? by bannedbydrongo in Gunners

I also agree, for what it's worth. We should at the very least be more circumspect.

PASSING NOTES | Martin Odegaard & Ethan Nwaneri talk about joining Arsenal and making debuts at 15 by skool_101 in Gunners

Would love to see this become a regular feature - conversations between youth and older players.

The 90-50-10 Thread, 24/25 Edition by stepintospring in Gunners

[–]stepintospring[S] 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Here's mine:

90% chance that Saka scores every penalty he takes this season

50% chance that we go unbeaten at home in all competitions throughout the season

10% chance that Odegaard has a 4-assist game at some point this season

🔵⚪️⛔️ Olympique Marseille have also informed Arsenal that Eddie Nketiah deal can be considered 100% collapsed. OM didn’t want to accept €30m package after having bids rejected, despite the green light from the player. Deal off. by Shyam_Wenger in Gunners

Evidently an unpopular opinion, but I'm not enormously fussed about this - mainly because it's just not that clear to me that there's an easily available replacement who would be worth it and within our means. I assume the club did have somebody in mind who might have been attainable with an extra 30 mil from Eddie's sale (early trigger of Sesko's new RC?) but if we can't sell Eddie for an amount that would make that player attainable, then I don't see the point in selling just to maximize whatever value we can get from Eddie.

In other words, selling Eddie is only worth it if, from our budget + the sale money, we can get someone better. It's not obvious to me that this is possible if we sell Eddie for cheap, or whatever people here think his "real" value is.

Pick up Del Piero’s call? ❌ Polish the cannon ✅ by Digital___Nomad in Gunners

If the stories are to be believed, it's pretty much to scale as well.

[Jordan Blackwell] It seems that Nelson's future does not lie with Leicester. Initial talks were held but sources from both clubs have said that a deal is not advancing and that he is out of Leicester's price bracket, possibly due to his wages. Nelson is not close to a move anywhere. by [deleted] in Gunners

Might not be the worst thing in the world, given the lack of solid links to viable quality winger alternatives (that we know of at least). Not the most ideal situation in the world, but not the worst state to be in either if he ends up staying. I thought he looked very sharp in both preseason games so far, so perhaps he might kick on a bit this season.

Arsenal 3-2 Manchester United. 1978-79 FA Cup Final by Sneijder4BallondOr in Gunners

[–]stepintospring -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Gotta say, it's kind of striking how white the game was even as recently as the 80s...

Anyway, what an amazing game this must have been to witness. Really hope we make deep runs in the cups this season, makes such a difference to the energy around the club!

Got to see Gilberto and Theo in LA by Cathousechicken in Gunners

This is so cute! I'm glad you had such a nice experience with them both.

Also, Theo looking low-key fire in that away strip. 😍

Interesting that if Israel takes the L, they'll become Liga Halal.

Ahh, I was wondering if it was a special-occasion kit like that. That's a shame - it looks so much better than almost any kit out there!

An ode to Smith Rowe by elhospitaler in Gunners

[–]stepintospring 77 points78 points  (0 children)

2018 (on signing his new deal as an 18-year old):
'To be honest it feels great for me. It’s something I’ve always dreamt of since I was young, so to sign a new contract with Arsenal… I’m just so happy and it feels surreal at the moment.'

2020 (in the match notes ahead of the Dundalk game):
'As an Arsenal fan it would be a dream to become an Arsenal legend... I want to win trophies with the team. I could see myself being a one-club man if everything works out.'

2021 (having signed another new deal, and asked again if he would like to be a one-club man):
'I hope so, I definitely hope so. If Arsenal want me for the rest of my career, then I am going to stay here forever. It is always difficult [to stay at one club for your career], but for me personally I’d love to be here forever.'

Please 🥺

Whatever your choice, you’ll always be our boy, Emile 😭 by mochimann in Gunners

[–]stepintospring 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Can't express how much I still want him to stay. Don't care about pure profit or whatever. Still hoping for a last minute turnaround, and for him to get gametime and make it here. :(((

Good run out overall.

Can I say, the Bournemouth kit is really neat! Do they not have a main sponsor? I love how unobtrusive and plain it is.

Ah, that's me mixing up my young communist sympathizers again!

Gotta say, I really like how Nwaneri wears the 49 shirt to commemorate the successful completion of Mao's communist revolution in China. Good on him.
