Arsenal FC | 2025/26 Season

[Mamoon]

Okay good now we’re talking so you liked Barca and don’t care for it anymore. Maybe since Messi left? So maybe you were a Messi fan to begin with and not a Barca fan per se?

Anyways, thanks for clearing this up. As you may know everybody else on this thread has a team they pretend to care about.

The claim that someone targeting Arsenal had no team of their own seemed like one of the dubious claims we’ve heard this week, like @Amjid Javed claiming he hits the gym 6 times a weak or @topspin claiming he scored 2 goals AND provided 2 assists in a match

I’m sure even @topspin is more creative on the ball than Declan Rice.

 

[Mamoon]

If you win both games and with relative ease I'll give increase your chances but I still think away to West Ham and Palace is where you will come unstuck, especially as you could also be in the CL final and that will be a distraction

Booker T scoring a title-winning goal on his return to Selhurst Park on the final day of the season would be poetic. Too bad we don’t play Spurs every week.

These are the type of matches - Palace and W Ham away are the type of games you’d expect him to influence but he has been a huge disappointment.

You don't see City dropping points at tougher places like Bournemouth and Everton? Especially Bournemouth who are draw specialists this season?

The UCL distraction is only After Newcastle and Fulham games. If we get to the final we can park that until season is over.

In football there is always a chance but right now I don't see it, they've got the bit between their teeth, have no CL distraction and they'll knock these wins off 1 by 1

I hope for your sake that I'm wrong and you can come back to this message to tell me I was wrong but I don't think I will be

I think overall he has been a disappointment but I also get the feeling Arteta doesn't fully trust him

Take the City game, he was Arsenal's most threatening player yet he was subbed off whilst Odegaard and Havertz stayed on the pitch

Eze is expected to run around like an obedient dog, and is expected to press more then being creative.

Everyone apart from the Arteta fan boys, know that odegaard and havertz are his favorite 2 hand puppets

He loses the ball a little too much and it’s risky against teams like City. I would personally give him an extended run on the LW because he can’t be worse than the current LW options. At least he can dribble and has a decent shot.

I don’t think he has a future in midfield. That is one area the definitely needs to be addressed in the summer and the root of the problem is the role that Rice has in the team.

He is nowhere near talented enough on the ball to be a #8. He runs around and does absolutely nothing.

Arsenal should seriously consider prizing Tonali. He is a far superior footballer than Rice and he will be the perfect #8 with Rice sitting in front of the backline which is all he is and all he ever will be - a DM.

I think Newcastle will be open to selling him for fair price and won’t make the same mistake they did with Isak.

 

[Mamoon]

Declan Rice is the main reason why Arsenal cannot create chances from open play. It is funny how delusional, 0 ball knowledge fans like @topspin think he is a Ballon d’Or contender

Hell will freeze over before a donkey like him wins the most coveted individual prize in football. Signing him for £100m is easily the biggest mistake made in the Arteta era. That money could have been spent elsewhere for more impactful outcomes.

£100m was spent on someone who is so mediocre on the ball. As a result, Arsenal’s midfield has barely improved after his signing.

I wouldn’t think about selling him because no one will be stupid enough to pay £100m for someone whose ability on the ball is no better than that of a centre-back but somehow ends up playing as a #8.

Rice as a pure DM has a lot of value. He has a good engine and a good tackle on him but you are in trouble if he is the main guy in the center of the pitch.

Arsenal badly need a #8 in the summer and Tonali is the most realistic and attainable option. There are a few better than him but they are all playing for superior clubs and have no incentive to leave their current clubs and join Arsenal.

Doesn't matter which team you support, once you support it, fall in love with that team there is no going back...
You support that team through thick and thin...

Fans tend be all across the spectrum, from abhorrent/insufferable ones to timid, quiet ones with a sunny personality... but what unites them is the love for their club

True....but I just lost interest in football in general. Same thing with cricket, lost interest almost completely now. Just watch as a spectator

Not because of that, I used to follow and support them since Ronaldo Brazilian was there.....I fell off around 2019 I think and during COVID lost interest. Time consuming and from which zero is gained personally

For sure you guys can say a bandwagoner, every single Desi is a bandwagoner when it comes to football clubs support.

Tonali has had an underwhelming season for us, though last season he was excellent for us. His best form for us has actually been him playing in the 6

A year ago the thought of him leaving would have been upsetting but a lot of fans are now of the thought that if he wants to go and we can get £70-80m for him then it's a deal worth doing

Bruno G is the better player and far more important to us and would be tougher to replace

 

[Amjid Javed]

nothing funnier then certain Arteta fan boys back tracking. After their usual period of hiding from months.

So now Rice is the problem, Arsenal have no creativity, Arsenal need a new number 8



Same at end of July, were saying Arsenal had world class depth, Zubimendi was upgrade on Partey.

Odegaard will be back as he's got an elite striker..

Now all off sudden Arsenal need Tonali.



Funny how when I told everyone in July, our midfield was Sociedad level. I had an Agenda

But Arteta fan boy, now does a Uturn and says Arsenal need more creativity



Delusional Bhangra exposed again

So you've taken up a hobby of being a Google search Analyst who can't come up with anything legitimate, well done

you need to stop with this weak counter argument "google search"

I've been a fan of football for a long time.

I just enjoy fans that act like they represent a club who have won 10 EPL, 5 UCL titles in the past few decades but in reality they have barely won anything

Only thing weak was your lame attempt at trolling, the fact you couldn't come up with anything valid or truthful is hilarious.

Go get your notepad and pen take a trip to Birmingham or peshawar and KK and Jimmy will help train you into a footballing

stating the obvious isn't trolling. I am calling it like I see it. Dont get offended, these are my opinions.

I think Tonali’s heart might not be in Newcastle anymore. A move to a difference might reignite him.

Bruno G is very good but not what Arsenal needs. He doesn’t Arsenal’s midfield issues.

About time!

You clearly weren't stating the obvious as what you posted in terms of trophies, 2nd places wasn't correct.

You also posted saying you were here to wind Arsenal fans up.

At least 2 people expose the fact you were posting infactual information
