I saw Fulham when Dempsey was playing for them. Tickets were cheap and easy to obtain, and the atmosphere was great.

quote:

Denis Suarez has revealed he was only ever half-fit for Arsenal during his miserable loan spell with the club last season.

“At the end of the game I thought that I had torn my groin and they did a scan and saw that I had an oedema [a build-up of fluid] on the bone in my pelvis,” he told Spanish radio station Cadena Ser.

“I thought I had torn something; I was in a lot of pain. And from then on I carried on training with medication and putting up with it as best I could but I didn’t feel right and [Unai] Emery didn’t think I was right. I wasn’t comfortable.

“I don’t think I was even at 50 per cent. After 15 days of being at Arsenal, I wasn’t right. From the 16th I wasn’t even at 50 per cent.”

I went to two. The membership gives you access to Arsenal player too. Can catch games on that. And for the tickets, they have a ticket exchange just like at LSU.

I got tickets to a westham and palace game. I just checked for tickets every day until two together popped up. It wasn't that bad really. I've paid more for LSU and Saints games.

Oh and they just go on that card you get, send you a cute little welcoming package too.

no reputable source has said anything, so I put very little stock into these rumors.

tierney from celtic has actual legs so excited to see if this can get done (sooner rather than later.)

Jordi Osei-Tutu will spend next season on loan with German second-tier outfit VfL Bochum.

Bellerin is recovering from ACL, Lichtsteiner is gone (thankfully), and Jenko may be moving on as well. Looks like we will see a healthy dose of AMN at RB again until Bellerin is fully fit.

We are going to struggle for a bit unless we can get big money for Aub or laca.

Just don't see how we can rebuild this squad. A move for someone like Saliba could be a smart move for the long run, but won't help us next season.

Tierny could give us a solid lb for years to come, just not sure if we can pony up.

After that we just need to play the Nelson's and bieliks and just hope they come good.

And not sell guys like Gnabry for fricking pennies.

I already have zero hope we make champions league given our budget and personnel situation.

Yeah. Without investment, or some intervention from Kroenke, we are going to be mired between 5th and 10th. Or some miracle from the academy.

That or they have been keeping how much money we actually do have under wraps.

Read Swiss Ramble's latest twitter thread. We are in a dire position. Gazidis was a dumbfrick who used Wenger's ability to get something from nothing to provide cover for his inability to get any commercial deals. We are in a geniunely terrible position.

At some point I hope Kroneke becomes bored and sells to some other billionaire.

I read through some of it. I just find it odd we supposedly have put some big offers out.

I guess you can amortize some of the fees. Maybe we are also confident in unloading some players.

For accounting purposes yes, but we don't know the specifics. Most fees are paid in installments, but I imagine there is some wide variety in the fee structures.

Mainly we should just shite on Kroneke and Gazidis for putting us in this mess.

Sky Sports News understands Arsenal have already launched a £40m bid for Zaha, which was rejected by Palace, who value him at £80m and do not want to sell having already lost Aaron Wan-Bissaka this summer.

Arsenal are expected to come back in for the 26-year-old, but it is thought they do not have much more cash in reserve - something Sky Sports News reporter Solhekol believes, speaking on The Transfer Show, not to be the case.

"Interestingly, we have read that Arsenal's transfer budget this summer, because they have missed out on the Champions League, is just £45m, plus what they can raise from selling players. We have kept reading that, £45m. People are thinking 'why are Arsenal trying to sign a player who Crystal Palace are saying is worth £80m, when they only have £45m?'

"What I have been told is that it suits Arsenal that people think they only have £45m, because when they get into negotiations over a player, the selling club is going to think Arsenal don't have much money. What I have been told is that this is a bit of a smokescreen and Arsenal can go up to £70m to buy Wilfried Zaha. £70m is the point at which they would walk away. A deal that would be worth £70m in total. We just have to take it with a pinch of salt that Arsenal only have £45m. They are one of the biggest clubs in the world. We are not talking about £300m for Neymar, this is £70m in total. I think Arsenal can do that."

Zaha would add dribbling ability but I really don't want to spend our entire budget on him.

It's really hard to find value in this market.

Agreed. I'd rather Arsenal spend money elsewhere.

Random. No idea why the new Henrikh Mkhitaryan is SO much more expensive than anything else on the menu
