Yeah, they are going to Dubai after Newcastle away on 2/5 I believe.

I’d feel a lot better if we can get some attacking help. That plus other folks getting healthy and Saka maybe back in April would make us a really solid team

Baws. We are in striking distance. Don't lose hope.

Just have to keep winning.

Liverpool has some hard arse away fixtures left.

We have away at United and away at Liverpool left.

Keep this shite within 2 or 3 when we play Liverpool away.

Anything can happen. Insane considering we have been so bad at times this year yet we are incredibly difficult to beat. Just 2 losses.

The only real hope we have is to add probably 2 attackers.

Our guys being in form or not - we can’t continue on with 4 healthy attackers playing 2 games a week. Even with Nwaneri back (whenever that is) that only leaves us 5 and no room for error with additional injuries

ETA: Seems like White & Tomi are both back in training, would probably pay dividends in the end to get Gabriel, Saliba & Timber some rest

I'm starting to think Arteta may do some crazy 4-1-2-1-2 diamond shite. This would very much help us keep fresh up front. Hell with how bad we have been up front, we could keep some players fresh.

With Timber/White and Lewis Skellys and even Tomi's athletism, defending the wings wouldnt be too difficult.

2 of Trossard/Martinelli/Havertz/Nwaneri
Odegaard
Merino-Rice
Partey
Lewis Skelly/Timber-Gabriel- Saliba, White/Timber

I didn’t mind the yellow to MLS. It showed that he is fearless and not afraid to give som shithousery when needed. He lived up to the moment.

Looks like we’re going after Sesko again. That would be awesome, immediately becomes our best ball striker

ArtetaOut Legit I remember when we couldn't go 20 days without losing to a big 6 team.


While this is good we lost the title losing to sides out of the big 6.


As of right now we don’t even need Liverpool to lose. We just need to beat the Evertons when Liverpool draws.


We’ve go villa coming up, couldn’t beat them last season. We need to get the win on Saturday and hope Liverpool get a draw against brentford.

We do that and we are really looking good for the final months.


We also have our 2 CL games crammed in this period. It’s important to get results in those games to avoid the extra games.

If we go loan first, would allow us to spend some money on a winger this window as well

Is there any ETA on White and Nwaneri's return?

I’ve seen Ethan will be on the bench this weekend. White just started training, so probably at least another week or 2 for him

I dont know what to believe as far as Arsenal finances, but we are in the clear for psr.


We can spend money now if they want to. It might screw up your summer though with overall spending.

I feel like we have enough in midfield and defense to finish the season. Not in attack though.

Arsenal won at Villa Park earlier. Last season Arsenal got ZERO points off Villa. Arsenal will win tomorrow.

Damn I just checked they got two stoppage time goals?

Just got to keep winning.

Serious contrast between the two benches this evening in terms of attacking power. Villa can call upon Bailey, Duran and Malen. Arsenal's forward options are Butler-Oyedeji, Kabia and Sterling.
