Do it for them
Hi
>>154889118So what happened to Pool in October?
>>154889257Nnnnnnnnnnnn vivi!
>>154889118online opinions seem to be a bit split, many people are quite unhappy with the Rogers links, saying that he is too similar to Eze centrally and to Trossard out wide and would much rather we go for Barcolawhat do you guys think?
>>154889438We'd actually have to be able to get Barcola, which seems far fetched right now.
I can't believe I'm this calm over a CL final, I was shitting myself over random league matches in October ffs.
>>154889118So I just read Bencho aint going no more to Arsenal but prefer Barcelona. So looks like we may have to go for someone else now. Gabriel Jesus is going for 20m max with mid table EPL and Palmeiras interested. Who is the next best thing to Bencho I wonder
>>154889479Free hit, innit? Most people expect PSG to win, so if we lose we can blame it on petrostates, we can blame it on the spirit of Luis Enrique's dead daughter, we can blame it on Timber's chocolate legs, but no one is going to say we choked it like they would if we lost the league. But with that all said, I think all Arsenal fans can see a way we *can* win, so there's still a degree of confidence.
>>154889485Who the FUCK is Bencho?
>>154889501It's more that finishing 2nd, 2nd, 2nd, 1st has convinced me that even if we don't win it this year, we'll be in the mix again next year, and the year after, and the year after that. Arteta just doesn't quit.
>>154889502a certain, apparently, 100 million Pathetico striker!
How’s everyone feeling about the Morgan Rogers rumor?
>>154889485>Bencho aint going no more to Arsenal but prefer BarcelonaThat's great, don't want that faggot in Arsenal.
>>154889485Time for the annual save a Chelsea player. Bring in Jackson
>>154889515Can't take that for granted. After a UCL semi-final, final, and the Invincibles within a five year stretch, I didn't think Arsenal would suddenly shit the bed for the next 15 years.
I’m convinced Declan Rice will not allow Arsenal to lose this final Like he will die on that field before he lets PSG win it
>>154889596genuine question, is there even a single Chelsea player left worth saving ? Madueke was already highly questionable (for that price >we paid) but a decent backup for Saka who doesn’t mind riding the bench and is young is hard to find.
>>154889585The more english players the better.
>>154889649Pretty sure it was poor squad management and players getting poached by various teams. Players left and didn't get replaced with the same quality. It's a marker of a world class side, actually replacing players instead of getting cheap or young replacements. Arsenal isn't getting raided any time soon.
>>154889696Probably not in reality Jackson does have some redeeming qualities I think Arsenal could utilize but he’s very selfish and would throw off the team harmony Arteta has built. Hes the only lelsea player id consider
>>154889728Also helps that with the financial muscle of the EPL these days, there are barely a handful of clubs that would look financially more appealing to a player. Though I do worry this means we'll still be selling players for peanuts this summer since other leagues are comparatively hard up and can't afford the kind of wages Arsenal dish out.
Some outlets are really forcing this Rodgers meme
abrizio Romano@FabrizioRomano·26 Min. Barcelona are preparing first official bid for Julián Álvarez, to be sent soon — and without any players included.Julián informed Atléti of desire to leave after rejecting a new deal months ago. After direct meeting with agent & intermediaries, Barça will send a bid.good he's shit
Volumes
>>154889822At least he stays fit unlike Jesus
So if alveraez 8s a no go then who else? I'd look at that lad who replace gyokeres at sporting. He'll be fairly affordable and it's not like the team creates good chances every game and it's just a lack of finishing, which is the case with havertz and jesus. Gyokeres puts chances away but they just need a reliable rotation option not an upgrade on gyokeres. Bin havertz and jesus off. The city game was inexcusable for havertz, don't care if he scored a header from a corner. Jesus sealed his fat against palace. He's not even old either. Could have gotten a comfortable hatrick. Gyok scores at least two of those.
Poor Jack Wilshere, the balding has finally caught up with him. Looks grim. Time to go bald again lad.
>>154889872Isn't Kroupi, the Bournemouth kid, the hot young thing? Prem proven and the age profile would work.
The thing that gets me about el Bencho is that his selling price to penny pinching pathetico was all a ruse. You can’t tell me the same team that refused to play Greaseman a certain amount of minutes/games to avoid paying extra to Barca is suddenly going to drop 3500 million yen on a bench player. Show me the pay stubs.
>>154889833Jej
>>154889479Unironically this. I obviously want us to win but half of me thinks we will fall short so I’m maybe mentally preparing myself for that. Getting beat in a cagey close encounter would be preferable to us not even turning up and getting absolutely mauled every which way. Which would be meltdown inducing.I guess, for me anyway, the leagues done and that’s the main thing.I hope we can give them a good fucking fight, whatever happens
>>154889885Yeah you'd think he should be a priority. Fans will adore him as well for winning us the league with his goal. Right foot, could slot in left as a shartinelli replacement and cut in on the right foot. He's like a jesus regen because he's fairly small and agile. They should definitely go in hard for him. Bournemouth say he's not for sale so he's either going to be very expensive or it just isn't happening. I don't doubt the sporting lad is in a similar boat in that regard however, a bit of a piss take signing a teams striker, then pinching their replacement. If they can make the Kroupi deal happen then it's a masterful move for many reasons. But we'll see. He's 19 so another season or two banging in goals for bournemouth would suit him equally as well. With Iraola leaving it does create a bit of uncertainty however, will they stay in good form or crumble down the table? Would moving to arsenal offer more stability as a trade off for first team chances? It's an interesting move.
>>154889968Pretty much. I already accepted defeat. We won the league; anything else is a bonus. Would love to win obviously but meh
>>154889968>>154889998Pathetic the pair of you
>>154890002It's not in our hands, it's up to the players, I can feel however I want. But I'm not going to lose sleep over it
>>154889479>>154889968Literally nothing can bother me in this moment Arsenal won the league I literally cried in Wengers final season when the team lost to Atleti where we are now… I’m at peace
>>154889118So City didn't just bottle it once but twice in the same season??>>154889438>>154889585Rogers seem good to me. And seemingly has a good head on his shoulders. His comments after the Villa game was pretty down to earth iirc. I don't know if he's really a priority though.
Arsenal MUST win against PSG to save football for everyone.
>>1548901643-0 psg me thinks
as a lifelong gooner i think it’s a shame we are a tourist club with no real fans. palace fans are the only fans in London with any bottle
>>154890246Funny how plastics choose teams to infest that aren't mid table soul clubs, but instead top flight teams that compete in europe, win trophies and fight for leagues. Then suddenly it's not a local club anymore, it's a global club and the local fans are irrelevant. Glad arteta put that one to be with the team's anthem. Surprised they didn't make it some rap shite, but he's a smart man that understands it's a local club regardless if it's got fans from 3rd world countries.>"Double pie and mash and liquor, a Cuppa Rosie Lee up chap">"Or watch retired gangsters bicker, everyday in Arthur's cafe">"But I see the remnants of the London that they thought they could erase"Curious he'd pick this song when the club is meant to be a global franchise now. It's a song that reflects the local community very well. Maybe he understand that english football clubs are fundamentally built on their local community, making it a local club instead of an entirely corporate product.
>>154889501>>154889515Hey, we'll have some excuse if we lose anyway.
>>154889649Not really, 2006 was like a last hurrah for the invincibles. This current team is just getting started.
...are they?
>>154890246If they had any bottle they'd unfurl that at the Holmesdale Road end and not blank their faces.
how i think we will line up next season
>>154890823>odefraud>shitvertz
>>154890823lol how many players do you think are going to not be injured post world cup
>#Arsenal are monitoring Dani #Olmo’s situation at #Barça [Via - @_AdrianSnchz].Yawn
>NEW @johncrossmirror: Gabriel Jesus is determined to STAY at Arsenal and see out his contract. >A factor in the decision is that his British citizenship will be issued this year. >Jesus wants to play and knows there is interest, but still loves Arsenal and is in no mood to push to leave.Oh no no no no
>>154890823All of Brazil is needed to replace one large Gabriel.
>Mikel Arteta has taken personal control of Arsenal's pursuit of Morgan Rogers. Arsenal are pushing real hard.>@goalGod please no
>>154890885we still are not going to replace those first teamers>>154890854captain's and arteta's pet isn't going anywhere>>154890913we really should be integrating a new player for him next season. He is already slowing down and struggling with pacy players
>>154890885also couldn't fit in Dowman, gabby jesus, monga, salmon, Quintero twins on the team
>>154889118all that banic about citeh they didn't even make it a week
>>154890912>>A factor in the decision is that his British citizenship will be issued this year.lol yeah he's going nowhere I'm afraid
Gyokeres is Hungarian origin wat
>5pm kick off>26 degreesGoing to be a bit toastie for the lads
>>154890936He's a good player with a high work rate and he's very committed. I think he's a good signing.
>>154891168depends on the humidity, could have been worse
>>15489123136%. 47% right now for me. It's not idea but completely liveable. They'll be fine, idk what the stadium is like but they'll probably have some coverage.
We should try and poach yildiz desu but wouldn’t complain with a prem proven talent one bit. Whatever. Now please a Cf, cm, versatile rb too
>>154890912Fucking hell, it's over. I hate this cunt so much. Fooled everyone during the pre season the year he came and that's it. Absolutely useless, he was >our main striker and gave an interview saying that scoring wasn't his thing. How is this acceptable..
>>154891285Likely the 3rd highest wage at the club. Top 3 reported to be Saka, Havertz and Jesus. All three have been awful this season.
>>154890694What and get banned for life?
>>154890912100% British Jesus.
Just bully bournmeme for Kroupi, find whatever hybrid CB/RB they've been tracking and sign Goretzka for a year or two. And I guess Rogers for some reason...
>>154892054>GoretzkaFor what possible fucking reason? Norgaard never played but at least he was available. Goretzka is never going to be played AND will be injured for 95% of his time at the club. It would be easier to just gather up all the money that would go towards his wages and just set fire to it.
t-minus 2 days until we get to watch some beautiful football being played during an Arsenal game, by the other team
>>154889479Because the league was always the top priority. CL would be the cherry on top but it's not going to define our season now that we've gotten the league over the line. Ironically the relieving of pressure over the final will allow us to play better I think, kinda like how we used to go on good runs after the league has been lost.
Group photo before the boys travel to Budapest this evening
>>154889479it's because we already played those 3 "finals" in a row and came out as championsthe announcement leaking a few hours before the bournemouth match Pep's retirement out of English footie was a massive blow to the ABA media + City drawing at the end ended their hopes and dreams of seeing Arsenal go trophyless this season, because they were all assuming PSG winning the CL was 100% guarateed
>>154892329Do it for Win.
>>154892329Kek, Blanco is primed to do this on matchday
Rogers won’t happen
>>154892445Read an interview he did he really doesn't sound like he'd get on with Arteta's autism.
>>154892467The one where he said “I don’t play boring football”? kek
the only transfer i'm remotely excited about so far is Junior KroupiTonali is meh. Rogers and Reijnders? Fuck off. Alvarez is not happening regardless. >We need another right back
>Corner FC
I don't believe anyone on the planet can beat us right now we cannot be stopped. I believe the players manager and everyone else at the club feels the same too.
>Will be forced to watch the CL final because I'm not am Samstag
>>154892758NOT WORKING
>>154892758i wish we could watch together
>>154892798One day lad
>>154891337Stealing a living, plus from the looks of it >we are going for a CF in the transfer market so what will Jesus even do anymore? Even if we exclude his wages, it's still not worth it to keep him around to play few minutes in the whole season. Might as well give that time to a young lad from the academy. There is literally no place if >we have Gyokeres + another striker + Havertz.
Imagine a season just like Liverpool in the 2021/22 season. Losing the Premier League and Champions League.I think had they won the league they would win the UCL. The pressure was all on them and Salah didn't look confident during the anthem.>inb4 2019, 2021For Arsenal it's different. Winning UCL is lowkey a bonus. With the league victory there is less pressure.
>79M for anthony gordongrim
>>154892855Havertz isn't a pure bred striker. I think he'd slot in really well as a shadow striker but that requires a team that has a lot of control over the games they play, which we don't see. He would suit bursting into space that other players creates, notably gyokeres, instead of being a creative AM like odegaard. It can be very effective. Because he's tall as well, he could do the work for Gyokeres as a deep lying forward, so gyokeres can stay forward and havertz can win the ball, initiating a real counter instead of gyokeres holding up the ball, dwelling on it because no one is available and then losing possession. But no, arteta has played with 9 outfield men defending so that hasn't been possible. Feels some players have been really poorly utilised. And I get that's because the emphasis on defence which won a league title. Jesus seems to like the idea of a false 9 type player that drifts back, but arsenal don't have that shadow striker type player who's played as an AM, so if the striker drifts back from their position no one takes that position. That would work because it creates chaotic marking when the marking players transition to another one. Seems like this season has been brute force instead of wonderful tactics. That is not reliable. Saka getting doubled up on with defenders has been brutal. Without the set pieces the results would likely have been different.Arteta needs to reassess the tactics, I know teams play defensive and counter football against arsenal but you need to create more scoring opportunities from open play. Off season, the entire league will work on set piece defence, set piece attack and denying the opponents set pieces in the first place. False 9 players don't work so well these days because it's an established role, unlike when messi starting that type of play and it was an unknown force. Not like jesus can dribble through a midfield and defence like messi either. He's being selfish and needs to leave.
I mean....
must buys for the summer >LW>striker (backup)>Rice backup >RB>maybe another 10
>>154893059Seen this post 20 times already, everyone knows.
Will Arsenal sell Merino?
BRI'ISH CORE Is this Rodgers guy genuinely worth it? Anytime i saw him score it was a long shot from the corner of the penalty area. I dont want some one trick pony like Gakpo.
>>154893102wops
>>154893102https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nY-92bpxTB0
>>154893149>188 cm tall Corner menace.
>>154893278OK i wasn't wildly for this signing but seeing how tall he is actually made me more keencan never have enough physicality, especially in creative roles.
>>154893278>>154893464He's tall, strong, technical, intelligent and pretty clinical. He's a very good fit. Used to playing direct football which is a huge bonus. He's a good fit, I really couldn't give a fuck about people disagreeing. He's a great player.
>>154893093No chance. Good squad member, reliable, experienced and versatile.
>>154893547From what I've seen, he seems like a flat track bully. He'll get goals against lower half table teams but he gets marked out by good teams ie Gyokeres 2.0Good replacement for Martinelli, but only slightly better. Arteta will turn him into a LWB.
Villa want £125m
very dark year for football. i had so much fun for 20 years+ making fun of arsenal. if england win something international next ill actually stop watching the game.
I fucking despise football fans. If an english team is in european finals, I want them to win every time. Don't care who, except city because it's not an english team. I'm glad tottenham won. I dislike the team a lot. But an english team winning is far better than another european team. Pathetic, crabs in a bucket mentality of football fans. Fans are full of low class, low intelligence retards.
>>154893781take it to reddit m8
everyone is jumping on the bandwagon now
Can Arteta and Berta be trusted to make the right moves in the transfer market? Think about when the Madueke deal was announced. Fans were signing a petition to stop it from going through. Would >we have been better off without him?
>>154893834Irish diaspora in London? I mean Arsenal have always had a strong following from them in London. Up north it's hard to compete with Liverpool.
>>154893869It’s an English club
>>154893834For me, Irish flag = Liverpool Norn Irish flag = Yanited
Funny how the Community Shield is considered a trophy for every club but Arsenal
>>154893886It really is, an it's funny watching people melt down when you state that. It's an english club that's at the heart of the local community, like the vast majority of english clubs. Soon as arsenal gained success it's everyone else's but the local's. Disgusting people. Such a hollow life to claim a stake in a football club just because it's successful.
When is this bullshit going to be exposed and removed?

>>154894188Whittaker has a very thick Yorkshire accent too, maybe her husband or someone turned on to Arsenal.
*walks towards the champions league*
>>154893834To be fair I’ve met loads of Irish people at work over two decades doing what I do, many of whom were older guys at the time,mad fuckers, and they were ALL either Liverpool or Arsenal. Arsenal had Irish/norn players players back in the day. I think that’s probably what it was.I’m not even sure why people have just started moaning about this subject just recently after we won. It’s as bad as aba.Literally who gives a fuck and let’s win again next season.
>>154894502>I’m not even sure why people have just started moaning about this subject just recently after we won. It’s as bad as aba.People especially zoomer scum are probably shocked about how big a club Arsenal are and how many fans it has, with the league title win making many of them heard.

>>154895247How am I a zoomer if I used to go Highbury with my dad
>>154895272It's a cope strat they are deploying. Discredit, deny and make counter claims. They think arsenal is an african club, an american club, an african american club etc etc. Hell, they think it's a samoan club. Doesn't matter it's based in holloway, strongest following is from holloway, until very recently pretty much the entirety of the fan base was from holloway. The club gets a morsel of success and suddenly foreign customers flood in and it's no longer a local club? They watch the matches on cracked streams and post on a forum, that is their contribution to the club and that's the reason it's supposedly a global club. LMAO. I've got match programmes from 2006 yet I'm a zoomer, these posters are fucking scum. Despise the lefty idea that you can stake a claim to something that isn't yours because globalism = being fair and kind. Genuinely weak people who want to be part of something great because they have nothing of value in their grotty little incel lives.

>>154895755Why would you support arsenal when your closest club is crystal palace? You are indeed a plastic.>>154895781Just because a group supports a certain idea or establishment, does not make it 'world wide'. There are fans world wide. But it's an english club based in holloway. It only exists because the community. The local fans have a much bigger influence on the club than some plastics from south korea or the middle east. How you cannot fathom this very basic concept, I don't know. Makes me feel you and the rest of these retards are indeed plastics, you know you're plastics but you maintain this retarded line because you want to feel part of this. You might be part of the fanbase, like enjoying marvel films and discussing it online, but that does not change the fact of the matter. Barcelona has a global fanbase but you'd sound utterly foolish to call it a 'global club' when it's clearly not. You're just a bit dumb lad.

Like it means more to you than them. It doesn’t ever matter. Enjoy our club’s success and stop being a fucking pathetic grumpy cunt.
>>154895657based
>>154896251Here we go a little outburst from the little plastic because he realised he isn't part of the club. A true fan has no issue being called a plastic or having his commitment questioned because he has no insecurity on the matter. It's just a foolish comment to him. The fact you're so keen to defend your custom to the the club, just like the american posters, makes me rather suspicious. Probably just stick to your local club if I were you. Or maybe you can give PSG a go if they win the final. That's the kinda attitude of most arsenal plas.. I mean fans, these days.
>>154894502>To be fair I’ve met loads of Irish people at work over two decades doing what I do, many of whom were older guys at the time,mad fuckers, and they were ALL either Liverpool or Arsenal.They are all plastics. This club is from Holloway. It is an English club. Undisputable facts.
So if the statement is made>Arsenal are an English football club based in the Islington neighborhood of London>The club's local culture has generated global appeal>Arsenal are one of the most widely-beloved clubs in football, with major fan bases all over the worldThis is acceptable?

Unless you know the local area well, have spent time there, still have ties, you don't really know what it means. I moved away years ago, but I still know people there, which makes me quarter plastic. Still go to games. Still follow and discuss the club. But I am not entirely in touch with the community because I don't live there, but I did and understand the general sentiment. So yeah, you're definitely plastic.

>>154896498Because you can't understand. The football club is based on the community and an integral part of the community. Status depends on your ties to the community. My closest club growing up was arsenal. Yours was palace? -1 point already. Then did you grow up in the area? Because that's another -1 point if you didn't. Do you still live there? -1 point if you don't (I don't so I cannot claim to be a complete fan, I am part plastic because I should support newcastle due to proximity and community integration).Fan status is a points based system. Some pass, some partially pass, some fail entirely. Liking the club because they won trophies instantly grants -1 point and if you have zero points to start with, you are a total plastic (vast majority of modern fans).>>154896522Reread the post, I'm quarter plastic because I moved away. You are likely from norfolk so that makes you almost entirely plastic. Nice gotcha attempt though, at least you're sort of paying attention.
>>154896460ngl you had me in the first half
>>154896580>Reread the post, I'm quarter plastic because I moved away.fucking kek
>>154896550We can get Kroupi.
>>154896516his name was xhenya and he was pure
my nigga i appreciate your passion for the club and the local community and like not wanting to become ch*lsea and shit... but by your logic you shouldnt and cant post here because its an american website and its not your local website?
>>154896614And the fact I don't strut around calling it a global club? It's pretty admirable of me. It's an english club for the holloway locals. I sacrificed my pure bred status for a better life. Are you born in holloway, lived their your whole life with arsenal supporting parents? Because if you are, I kneel. But I highly doubt it considering you're claiming the club as some nebulous global franchise when it's clearly not.
>>154896614My sides
>>154896580Are you autistic or something. I’m asking genuinely because this reads like you’re taking the piss and I was on your side before
>>154896649You have missed the point. I don't claim this website as my own, I respect it's an american site with american rule systems, I respect it doesn't bow to random laws and principles that other countries would like to impose on it, that is what makes it great. That is the same principle with arsenal. It's an english club, it's a holloway club. It should not be claimed otherwise. We can enjoy the club, root for it but the buck stops when people start claiming it as their own. Is it irish? No. Is it african? No. Is it american? No. Is it a scouse club? Not at all. It's holloway's club.
>>154896700Why fall for such a blatant shitposter?
>>154896649Don’t worry about this insufferable cunt. He’s even replying to himself now. You are a good regular poster here, and Sweden. Don’t stop. Hope you enjoy the weekend and we win nigga
>>154896728Is it?
All this because woman doctor who wore a cannon necklace
>>154896700If you tout things up in a logical quantative manner, such as a points system, it becomes much clearer and eradicates the blurred lines. I cannot stake a claim to the club because I am no longer part of the community but I'm pure bred in every other respect. Therefore allocating points to the qualifying parameters of club support provides a clear and quantitive measurement of an individuals legitimacy.I find it to be a highly effective system personally.
Getting my documents in order for the Arsenal Home Office. Is it a points based system like the league?
prediction sites are saying havertz starts over gyokeres.is that the right move?
>>154896704Where would it be without American money though? Relegation under Usamov?
>>154896742No one is telling him to stop, they're just reminding posters to refrain from claiming ownership of a community football team that they have no legitimacy over. Very simple. And as far as I've seen he hasn't so there is no issue there, though you seem to create one like a scorned teenager who's been left out the group chat, seeking to create a new faction.-1 legitimacy points, your plastic status has been increased.
when you can't HAHAHAHA post you can always plastic post anything to shit up the thread is allowed
>>154896757It’s only you and a couple of old solo drinking boomers in the floirin who are this miserable
>>154896774dont matter. in arteta i trust
Think of the plastic status as a social credit system. Because that is what it is. It's a plastic credit system. 1 credit makes you a full plastic, anything above one makes you an irredeemable customer for life. Anything below 0.5 makes you a fan. Very simple system, unsurprised the plastics cannot understand it. Most of you are customers anyway.
>>154896757Oh ok definitely a pisstake my bad
>>154896818>miserablePragmatic and cultural preservationists. Without people like us, nations, cultures, inventions, art, music etc etc would be baseless. There would be no identity or pride. -0.75 plastic points
>>154896774No but it's not up to me
>>154896774I’d start gyok personally. I think we will be on the back foot and probably have to chase raya’s long hoofs for a the first half.Big nigga gyok can bully
Tomorrow's Friday. Then The Final. Getting excited.
>>154896857If you want to go down that route then football isn’t even important is it? Nation? Culture? Chest beating about a fucking football team??But please elaborate on how culturally preservative you really are? Seeing as you moved away and you’ve probably not even caught the train at Upper Holloway or got the tube at Highbury for a while.
is Arsenal still in for Livramento? didn't realize the lad is from london
>>154896989What part of holloway are you from + which hospital were you boring in? Feel like you're one of those proper dangerous e number pastics that cause cancer instead of the ones that come with microwave meals that aren't so well. My point is bolstered by the fact you seem to be melting under this interrogation.
>>154897058You let me down I thought you were being serious before
Haven't seen that Croatian schizo in a while I think.
>>154897072I am mostly serious to be fair I'm just bored of the dead end interactions so I decided to have fun. Anyone that things this is a global club is retarded. There is a global fan base. But that doesn't mean it's an [insert minority group club]. It's a holloway club based in england. Nothing more nothing less. Plastics that turned up to the celebrations are scoffed at by the locals, the real fans. It's a bandwagon club hence the sudden spike in interest. Said it all before.
>>154897138He got a british vpn
>>154897058My family is from Wood Green actually. What part of Woolwich are you from?
>>154897197Kek. Croatian was a burger abroad? Or was he just a schizo?
>>154897157> scoffed at by the localsEven the whites aren’t english round there nowadaysStop postingIt’s over
>>154897003Hope not mate. Timber and rice are injured enough
>>154897404White*
>>154897404>>154897537Please don't give me a heart attack like that
>>154897612Sorry about that sir
Arteta wants the Champions League more than anything. And he's gonna get it.
>>154897647We are gonna play the most disgusting, haram, last ditch defending, playing for corner, diving, horseshoe, possession anti football ever seen in this century.I’m very excite.
>>154897793https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hAx6mYeC6pY&list=RDhAx6mYeC6pY&start_radio=1
2 more days EEEE, please don't start havertz over gyokores, havertz is a better sub than starter and gyok is a better starter than sub
>We won the champions leagues but if you’re not from Holloway, which wasn’t even where Arsenal was originally from, you’re a plastic REEEEEEEE
right ok so if anyone clicks this and attempts to watch it.... im posting this for the single and sole purpose of firing everybody up. watched about 12 mins of it aaaand not watching more lolhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NILaE9z5ju8
honestly, regardless of whether Gyok or Havertz starts, or whether Ode or Eze starts, I trust Arteta's plan AS LONG AS Zubi doesn't get a single minute
>>154898703thats inevitable and you know that
trossard gyok sakaeze rice odegaard
>>154898905Ode-Eze gets dominated in midfield. Swap captain twink for MLS but Arteter will never do it.
>>154898570I’m not too keen on French people in general except one guy I’ve known for a very long time and he is a psg fan before oil and we always chatted about our teams and European football in general. He wasn’t toxic at all and always liked to see how Arsenal were doing.We were kinda liberal in the old days I guess but I never showed my power level because he’s a nice guy so desu a super loyal mixed missus.People are fucking mongoles desu. Like that bong flag earlier. Imagine wasting 2 days of your life complaining after your team wins the league lmao and claiming your superiority based on some geo location where foreign mafias are getting machine gunned and you can’t even walk the streets past 10pm because of some weird reason you can’t speak about online otherwise they will call you Hitler.Wild
>>154898951>Swap captain twink for MLSyup captain twink sounds much better than major league soccer im on board with that
>>154898570Sorry for ranting btw. The bread was good before and since we won it became a bit shit. :(
>>154899013>>154899022ill have to write an entire novel about it hah i know what you mean so heres this - <3 >inb4 bulgaria you fucking faggotas for the video this psg guy is just straight up annoying.>yeah psg are the most progessive football club on the planet>arse rely on corners LMAO
>>154898815it shouldn't be man, Zubi offers literally nothing he's a weak and useless pussy
>>154899194zubi may not be in the form of his life i give you that. but hes an amazing player especially on his day. now i love mls yeah dont get me wrong but at the start of the season when he played (started) he wasnt exactly world class if you will.
>>154899016I think he will try and be more secure instead of trying to take the game to them immediately (imo - I could be, and hope I’m totally wrong here) so I think an capie lb position and maybe a ode/eze or a ode/zubi midfield with rice as the 6 will be the thing.If he starts skelly, Then it’s a huge move imo and maybe he won’t buy another cm because he is a LEGO faggot.With max potentially being our 10 and skelly our 8 we 100% million gorrilian % need a backup for deccers.Somehow Lego think zubi can play the 6 but no way. Not in this league. Sorry.It worries me a bit
>>154899143> >inb4 bulgaria you fucking faggotKek don’t be silly
>>154899261oh man idk how to reply to this because ive had a few beers yeah hah but ill ignore the lego head thing. just dont push it plsfor better or worse (depending on where you sit) thats what we get - it can be mls at lb or cm, it can be cala at rb and hincapie at lb, it can be zubi/rice at rb it can be ANYTHING.. >Not in this league.luckily we dont have to worry about the league ;)
>>154899254respectfully, i disagree completely.he wasn't even all that great at the start of the season, he was just getting away with it because the rest of the team was fit and healthy and we were winning every game. He contributes nothing, there is absolutely nothing he can do that MLS can't at an even higher level.
>>154899396>he wasn't even all that great at the start of the seasonhe was> he was just getting away with it because the rest of the team was fit and healthyeeeerm...... yeah no >He contributes nothingbut he does a shit ton - from running to passing to blocks to marking to breaking up play to attacking space to tempo..................>there is absolutely nothing he can do that MLS can't at an even higher level.ill just ignore that
>>154899522blocking? marking? he does not and cannot do that because he has the physicality of a 12 year oldand passing? passing??? he would literally rather die than pass forward. All he does for 90 mins is get the ball from Saliba/Gabriel and give it to Rice.MLS with his eyes closed is better than Zubi
>>154899840
>>154889833Scum.
Konate as the Saliba backup?
>>154901332are you fine with Gabriel Jesus continuing at the club?
so, did he find the ultimate strategy for talking to players as if they're 5 year olds? this really what works on the modern player? back in my day the best coaches were psychopaths who threw shit at players and put them through "the hair dryer" treatment and struck fear into their hearts, if they didn't play well, they'd never play again. but now they got bonsai trees and little cute messages. a sign of the times or is arteta just that smart for cracking the meta?
>>154900879\o/
I'm still weirdly zen. I hope the players feel as much relief as I do having seen the club win the league. I want to say I'll still be chill whatever the result tomorrow but I know I'll be sick if >we fumble a close game. >>154902015I thought it was well known that zoomers are this kind of pussy ass faggot. It's why Mou's strategy no longer works.
Goodly fucking morning
I don't think this team needs an Ozil/Sanchez tier transfer this summer, but it sure fucking deserves one for onceI would much rather take another key player from City now that Pep is leaving, weakening our direct opponents in the league is by far the best way strategy long term, doing what other teams used to do to us and stealing their players should be high priority going forwardAlso feel that RB hole ffs, we need someone who won't get raped or a walking yellow playing there
>>154896064Instagram for ants !?
BBC interview with Josh Kroenke:https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c62e157w9kroOne interesting point was that it was Per Mertesacker who recommended we signed William Saliba. So that means Raul Sanllehi was a complete fraud who literally didn't do a single good thing for this club while he was in charge.
https://x.com/SKhalisa20663/status/2060001569123561933I've seen enough. Arsenal win TOMORROW
>>154899840I have to agree with Bulgaria here. Zubimendi was one of our better players in the first half of the season (together with Gabriel, Rice and Timber). He has also scored so many clutch goals this season. And I would argue that he makes more progressive passes than Rice.It is the teamwork with Rice I question. They haven't looked solid as a partnership at any time this season. Yet both has been great themselves. This has led to us conceding a hiph number or open unpressed shots just outside our penalty area. I'm open for dropping Zubi because of this, not because he himself has been bad (and I am sure as hell not dropping Rice).
>>154903622MLS is more physical, more direct and more driven in the games he's played. Part of me thinks he's perfect for the game tomorrow. Young, wants to prove himself, seems a little fearless. It's a risk but it's a high reward one. Get MLS in the starting 11 tomorrow. His form has been better, his duals are better, interception are better, pressing is better. Recently he's out performing zubi but a long way.
>>154903656Completely agree. Lewis-Skelly is press resistant and will do well against high pressing PSG. Superb form going into the game as well.I also think Rice played higher up the pitch earlier in the season but has recently returned strictly to a DM and that suits his game much better.
>>154903756His tracking back is the best I've seen. Chases the opponent line like a lion and statches the ball back multiple times a game. Fans and pundits focus more on defending than they used to which is great because defending is also very fun, needless to say how important it is. His bing long bounding strides is a spectacle in itself.
>final is tomorrowblajmi
1 day until i watch my first ever ucl final. special. will be kino either way. Rice and Raya to play absolute madnesses and cement themselves as some of the best ever. check this
>>154903477>I don't think this team needs an Ozil/Sanchez tier transfer this summer, but it sure fucking deserves one for onceback then there were far more talents. you had the likes of ozil sanchez hazard tevez higuain cavani ibra all playing for lesser teams and easily available where as now they would be some of the best in the world
>>154903819Haven't noticed any tracking back ability on Lewis-Skelly myself. For me, he usually finds himself on the wrong side of the attacking players, pulls them down and gets a yellow card.
>>154903819Oh, maybe you meant Rice. In that case I completely agree.
I'm not nervous for some reason. A Champions League win is a wonderful bonus for us
>>154903617What was the outcome of the marble race? I couldn’t be assed to watch all that shit
>>154904157Damn I remember that transfer window where Higuain was very likely to sign for >us
>>154904348Same. Of course I'll be disappointed if we lose but the only way I would get really mad is if PSG doesn't show up (play a really bad game) and we still manage to lose.
>>154904441Blue marble opened up a big lead, but somehow bottled it.
>>154904348>>154904497Not nervous as well. The main focus for the reasonable people was winning the League. That was always the most important object. Then all the ABAs created this trend that >we were going for the quadruple etc. I'm perfectly okay having won the League after so long. Winning the CL will be an amazing success as well but it's already a great season regardless. Besides that , I also feel confident in the team as well. I think it will be an even game and >we can win it. Winning the League did its best effect, washing the loserness off.
>>154904348In England, the league is the most important prize up for grabs since the competition is so demanding and it proves you are unarguably the best team in the country. With cup competitions, luck plays a big factor so while they are nice to win, they don't define your season. It's not like Spain, Germany or France, where the domestic league is a joke so success is only really defined by how well you do in Europe.Also, PSG are favourites going into the final. So even if Arsenal lose, it's hardly an embarrassment to lose to the reigning champions and what everyone considers to be the best team in the world right now.
I need the UCL beating Bayern meant so much to me and I still remember the pain of losing 2006. Losing this isn't the end of the world but I want them to win it so much and finally get rid of those 2006 memories.
This final is not some sort of 'bonus'. They earnt their place in this final. They are there on merit. It's a massive goal for the club, the players and the fans. A bonus is maybe the EFL cup, this is as big as the premier league. A loss would make it hurt less because they won the league for the first time in 22 years. But everyone should be hyped and not discussing their emotions over losing before the match has even begun. Can't believe what I've been reading the past few weeks. They are there to win, they will be disappointed if they lose and the fans should be too.I'm feeling confident, the team is exceptional, they are riding a massive high, tactically they're suited to a PSG side better than anyone in the world right now. Time to break the curse. And they're going to do it.
WE ARE GOING TO BE CHAMPIONS OF EUROPE AND THERE WILL TWO BIG TROPHIES AT THE PARADE
>>154904936i thought the trophy lift is cancelled due to safety concerns
>>154904936Yes.
>>154904348>I'm not nervous for some reasonNeither am i but at the same time i don't think >we can win
>Reiss Nelson has returned to Arsenal following the conclusion of his season-long loan dealThis bum still exists
>>154904512INTERESTING

>Barcelona trying to poach hincapie Do these bums even have money
>Kai Havertz’s matchworn shirt from THAT historic win against Burnley this month has become the most expensive shirt of the 2025/26 Premier League season sold at auction, reaching £26,700 on @MatchWornShirt.
>>154905982holy shit that's a lotThink Trossard's one against West Ham went for about 9 grand.
>>154906010Well shit that was wrong
I'm actually feeling confident bros
>>154905779Not worth it. If Arsenal are smart they just hoard Mosquera hincapie saliba and Gabriel for the next 2 seasons and win everything. Then you can sell some
>>154905779They need to seal that deal ASAP, he's extremely good. He's still young, seems to have gelled well in the squad. Start putting those shirt sales and prize money to good use.
Timber absolutely starting
>>154906405Not happening. Just more 4D chess by Arteta.
T-minus one day until we get to see some beautiful football being played during an Arsenal game (by the other team).

Arsenal is synonymous with black identity. The black man's team.
>>154907226You mean because there are a lot of locals with Caribbean ancestry? Because it's actually true, because Arsenal is a local, english football club unlike man shitty of psg.

>>154909921Sure, but it wasn't CL, innit.
How come Arsenal is the only football team to have its own dedicated thread here? Why does it have so many foreign fans? Is it because it objectively has the coolest name and logo out of the big EPL clubs?t. organic supporter

>>154910829Plastics generally are obsessed. Normal fans of english clubs, local englishmen as they're called, accept it as a part of their life. Plastics make it their life. Then claim the club isn't local because it makes them feel part of it.

>>154910099so people can get home early. That's it.
>>154910829Arsenal's just the coolest. From the Queen to Osama bin Laden everyone's an Arsenal fan. Even if they hate Arsenal, they're an Arsenal fan. Arsenal is the protagonist.
>>154911382Yeah the interview today they talked about it specifially how against PSG Arteta had nobody to come on. In fact that's the game that set out to Josh Kroenke that the summer rebuild spend had to happen.
>>154911648mind you they still performed decently despite the lack of depth
>>154911700I remember Donnarumma coming up clutch for them
Please God, I promise to be a better person if you give us the CL. I'll go back to Church and get my life together.
>>154908123I love this photohow'd you even find that all the other photos I see are low res and getty wants £400 for the high res ones
I'm thinking Arteta will start MLS and Rice and play Zubimendi at right back.
>>154911736i uh dont think miks that suicidal
>>154911723Stuart MacFarlane Flickr account and then any free Flickr photo download site
>>154904674I totally disagree. Winning the Champions League is way bigger than a Premier League title. That's why Liverpool fans STILL talk about that night in Istanbul back in 2005. I remember I was at uni when Chelsea won it for the first time and I lived with two of their fans and seeing them both going absolutely insane with sheer joy way beyond any of their league victories. We've been second in the League 3 seasons in a row, winning it has been long overdue. Yeah im ecstatic about it but it's more of a sigh of relief than out and out joy. This is only our second ever CL Final. Put another way, if we win the CL tomorrow I'm dropping everything and heading to London Sunday no matter what, if we don't then it's just meh and I won't bother with it.
>>154911848kino these are great.
>>154911736>>154911796ok im probably reading tooooooooooo much into this but... mikel has always been vocal about pods and combinations and chemistry etc. so ithink he played zubi at rb for a couple reasons - 1. confidence - i still trust you, you da man etc. 2. game time - not an important game, dont overdo it just go out there and play 3. learn how to see the game from rb - so like even its cala playing rb youd know where they exepct you to be as a dm/cm. youd alos learn how and where people want to recieve the ball from that postion. 4. illuminati - i dont know whos fit and who isnt but its not beyond possibility that mikel asks zubi to drift to the right in defence - spain played geoergia earlier etc etc - so that 1. it neutralizes the left wing threat 2. allows dec to drop into the cutback area. 3. allows for quick transtion - which might result in just idk someone passing back to raya but that means we still in control..................

>>154911919Liverpool fans talk about it because that's the only thing they won for ages.
Does anyone else think Wright is too involved with the club? It feels like he is enjoying the spotlight a bit much. It must feel good to hear the fans sing your song and kiss your feet but I wish he would exercise some restraint like wenger and let this team have its moment.
>>154912635talking like that cost Eni Aluko her jobNo Wrighty slander will be tolerated
Just remembered Joel Campbell.wew ladMy boy, campbellingz...he's still playing
Apparently Arteta named his son after Heinze.
>>154913008sound better than >tyrique-lashauwn arteta ayyyyyy
>>154912635No. The man was Arsenal's all-time top scorer, FFS. If you're not going to have a guy like that involved with the club, who are you going to pick? Mikael Silvestre?That aside, Wright has achieved a sort of "national treasure" status in the wider UK now, is the most charismatic of the ex-Arsenal players, been a media fixture for decades now, is English, and isn't ashamed of his love for Arsenal (I often feel guys like Dixon and Merson have somehow come to dislike the club or try to overcorrect their fondness for the club by being overly critical of it).
Are any of you in budapest? This day is once in a generation, we need an on the ground /arse/ correspondent
>>154910829>>154911437Schizo fan police replying to his own question. What a faggot
>>154911919They came from 3 nil down though bro and Jerzy Dudek did the Bruce grobbelar wobbly knees. Great game though.I started off being pleased they were losing but by the end wanted them to win. I know some madlads that drove there. Wild stories.
Cum on you gooners!

>>154915732There in spirit. The lads can count on me. (Really I'm annoyed I had to fly back before the parade and was stuck in Surrey the night of the Bournemouth result)
The closer and closer the final gets, the more im starting the believe, and the more worried it's making me. If this team has taught me anything, they only deliver in big games when morale is at its absolute lowest. The moment things look positive, the reality check is loaded. The vibe around Arsenal right now is overwhelmingly positive, and im enjoying that, but the omen its setting is making the wait for the final torturous. I almost don't want the wait to end, at risk of killing the feeling
>i think he will play zubi rb>*hits crack pipe*>let me elaborate
Champions of Europe by the end of the night
Only the biggest game in our history today. No pressure
Where's everyone watching the game tonight? I'm still weighing up whether to go out or be comfy and stay home (esp since kick-off isn't until midnight here).
>>154891149Hes 75 % Swedish and 25 % Hungarian. Born and raised in Sweden, Swedish is his native language, plays for Swedens NT. Wouldnt call him Hungarian.
I am in Budapest right now. Arsenal fans look like normal people, while 50% of the psg fans are niggers.
>>154917233>50% of the psg fans are niggersDo people not know that? Even 50-50 is a very good stat based on demographics of people who wear PSG shirts. Wearing shirts of teams isn't there common here but every time I see someone with PSG merch it's 95% a gypsy.
>>154917233Why is your flag Slovakian then, lying prick,

One thing you can predict with certainty is odegaard going off injured within 25 minutes.
>>154917440*left winger

>>154917460Bang some hot Hungarian chicks for us bro
>>154917460Any chances for torrential rainfall, like it so oft happens during the F1 weekends? Skies seem clear (for now)...
>>154917460Looks very nice lad. Enjoy
>>154917458>black multi generational immigrants and melting pot spawn doing Uncle A proud.Cinema
>>154917446The stage is set
>>154917460Roaming on your phone would still change your flag to wherever you were
>>154917530No it doesnt. At least it never changed for me. But ok I will walk to the parliament amd report soon.
>>154911382We outplayed them across both games too which was annoying when we were missing players and donnaruma was having a worldie. If we win today we'll need a great amount of luck.
Anyone else missing family related events for this? Me, my brother in law and my father in law both of whom flew all the way from Korea won't be going to my nephew's baptism. Seeing Odegaard lift another trophy is better than 3 hours of priest pouring water a 3 month old
>>154917862That's pretty grim in my opinion. Family over football every single time regardless the event. If the poor lad grows up to learn his uncle missed his baptism to watch arsenal park the bus and get beaten on a 0-1 loss, he will not be pleased. You had better hope arsenal win and he becomes a devout arsenal fan instead of a devout catholic.
>>154917862I know Catholics like their ceremony, but why does that shit take three hours? And why the fuck is it happening in the afternoon?
>>154917862kek, I remember you mentioning that Korea tripimma miss my cousin's wedding but we are not that close anyways. I will stand out not going but what the hell can I do? It's funny because the wedding starts EXACTLY at the time of the game. If it was somewhat earlier where there ceremony is almost over and you can watch the game on your phone or something I'd probably go. Now? no way.
>>154917530Whenever I've phoneposted from abroad, it still showed my Irish flag. It's only when I used the wifi there that my flag changed.
>>154917937Cheers Kat
>>154912635That will be Piers Morgan, Ian is more than welcome.
>>154918053It is odd to see just how wide the mentions have been in the past week Normally when Arsenal are in the media it's Cundy and O'Hara seething it up
>>154912635Keown is probably the most worthy of involvement because he is constantly fighting for arsenal in the media and countering the narratives.
Had a dream about the match just before waking up, Arsenal were 2-1 up with 23 minutes played. 3 goals within 30 minutes would be a miracle
>>154918162The last time both teams scored in a CL final, Messi was still at Barcelona and Cristiano Ronaldo was at Real Madrid
>>154918053Always liked Brian Cox.
>>154918105It was sweet they had the players names on their shirts.
Would be nice btfoing another soulless oil club to a trophy, but i dont just see it happening this time around....sorry bros
In the pub, nice 6 hours of warm up drinking time.
>>154918412I was alright until I woke up this morning. Now I want this day to be over.
>Fighting last night>Takes an L alreadyDamn
>>154918456Nah, league was always the big one for me, this is just a bonus. As long as they don't play like complete spineless cucks and get absolutely hammered I don't care.
I dont want Eze or Zubi in the starting XI. Eze has some fantastic shooting from outside the penalty area but is invisible outside of those moments. Zubi cant make a vertical pass to save his life and is awful when pressed, causing giveaways leading to dangerous goal scoring opportunities for the opposition. You could also use Havertz over Gyökeres. Gabriel, Saliba, Calafiori, Merino, Havertz on corners would make PSG shit their pants. Trossard just outside of the box ready to shoot any rebounds.
I was excited to go to the screening at the stadium instead of watching it in a pub but my brother just sent me a pic of the tiny fucking screens and I’m in the upper tier
>>154918478I was thinking this but then I picture the CL trophy in my head and that Arsenal have never won it. I really really want Arsenal to win one.
>>154918540I see that, I think you'll be fine, those pictures are from miles away. The screens are on the back of a fucking artic lorry, I'm sure they'll be good enough. The people that are fucked are the ones that are in the corners, they won't see shit.
Not really in the mood to watch this match desu, I’d rather just check the result when it’s over rather than having a 90 minute long anxiety spike.
>>154918611So if you had the opportunity to get tickets you’d turn them down?
>>154918611That's how I felt about 99% of the season, even though I did watch every single match anyway. Now I just feel chill. >We won the league so I'm not anxious about anything. I'm just going to be watching a football match. If >we win, amazing. If >we don't, no big deal imo.
t- 5 hours
>>154918746Very plastic mentality. This is a champions league final for fuck sake.
I don't feel so good.
>>154918788Yeah, and I'm looking forward to watching it. Not worried about the result.
>>154918829>"I don't really care if my team win the champions league"Hope you're not the one missing the baptism
I am looking forward to watching the match. I am expecting the team to win. I will be very disappointed if they don't. I will be glad at least they won the league, but the first final in 20 years in the biggest competition in football. So yes I'll be disappointed, because I'm not an internet fan.
>>154918846>>"I don't really care if my team lose the champions league"Ftfy
>>154918862People saying Arsenal still have a good chance of making another final either next season or the following seasons, it could be another 20 years until we reach a CL final again.
>>154918925Ah well yeah I don't really care because I can't emotionally handle a defeat so I'm just going to say sure whatever haha at least we won the other thing xDDFucking bonehead plastics doing my head in. They might get in the final next year, they have been consistent for a few years now but as you say there is no guarantee of that. Doesn't matter anyway, they win today.
About to head off to work. Ive got two zoomers to train today so I dont know if I should put it on in the background. Would have taken off had I not just come back from a two week vacation.
my prediction is Arsenal or PSG will win the champions league
>Arne Slot actually firedBig news, and they've missed out on Xabi.
>>154919098Liverpool making it all about themselves as usual, on CL final day.
Bros...what If we get humiliated by PSG tonight...?
>>154919261You and I, and other non-Londoners do not get to say ”we” about Arsenal. I support Arsenal but I’m Swedish and have zero ties to North London. Also, Merino will win it for Arsenal.
volumes
>>154919318>You and I, and other non-Londoners do not get to say ”we” about Arsenal. I support Arsenal but I’m Swedish and have zero ties to North London.And if arsenal win, the situation remains the same.
>>154919318Can I say we I’m south london
>Lots of excitement at the Arsenal fan park in Budapest. Emmanuel Eboue is here and has predicted a 2-0 win. He’s also promised to unleash a new dance if Arsenal get it done. “If we win tonight, I said to my wife I’m not coming home.”
>>154919386Absolutely not, you're a palace fan.
>3 out of our 4 rivals have new coaches>They will need time to figure out the league and the new clubThis might actually be a chance to retain our title bros. Continuity is very important
T-minus four hours until we get to see some beautiful football being played during an Arsenal match (by the other team).
>>154919401How
>>154919411biggest threat is Alonso with no European distractions.If we aren't completely fucked up by injuries, we'll retain the title easy
>>154919411Or Alonso could click with the players instantly and make a serious title challenge. We'll see.
>>154919318this poster is not me btw
>>154919261Then we cope and say the Arsenal players have had to play many more minutes over the season.
>>154919459>chelshit recruitmentHe's gonna have the same problems he did at Madrid, nevermind their squad already being trash.
>>154919459Indians support Arsenal? Fuck, gotta change team.

Daniel Levy bought the spurs players watches before they played the final with the inscription 'Champions League Finalists'.
Arsenal haters never forget Keown and van Nistelrooy but they get extremely butthurt when Arsenal fans remember Haaland’s stay humble, eh to Arteta and throwing the ball into Gabriel’s back.
