Much better from Iwobi. He needs to keep moving the ball with purpose and create opportunities.

Today's lineup was just sad. Only way to put it. Just not the quality of Arsenal.

The team as a whole is just very poor lacking quality and depth at every position..obviously Wenger needs to go, but the team needs a facelift..just not going to win consistently with the players we have

Brazilian savior will be here soon boys. Don't worry. Malcom will light up the league, win us Europa and lift the World Cup this summer.
frickin ballon d'or incoming.

Nah but fr if we get Malcom and Lemar, i won't complain anymore this season. Even if we don't buy a center back or midfielder and finish 8th in the league. Doubt it happens, but nothings impossible lol.

Time to sell Alexis and loan Iwobi. I'm really worried with Arsene coaching these youngsters. None have developed as we thought they would (Bellerin is no longer lighting the world up, for one) and I don't want to see AMN, Willock, Nelson, Nketiah, Beilek, etc do the same career trajectory that Iwobi is on.

Ps: anyone notice how Iwobi does much better for Nigeria than Arsenal? I just put it down to better coaching, but who knows

Aubameyang rumors heating up. I don't know what to think.

Auba isn’t going from Dortmund to our shithole club. That’s a lateral move or worse at this point.

Have no idea. Got an espn update saying Micki and Malcom are headed this way but I've seen a lot of rumors about Auba leaving BVB within the next 24-48 hours for us. Who knows.

Auba would be so oughta left field I wouldn't know what to think. Front two with Laca would be a fun experiment lol

We’re gonna end up with nothing and leaning on Nelson and Iwobi all year.

My only hope is we make a Europa run and move on from Wenger in the summer while adding some quality to the squad.

A player like Xhaka, for example, has the ability to be an excellent 6 in this league. But he isn’t tracking back in key moments and since it’s not getting fixed I can only imagine it’s not being coached. Otherwise he’d be benched for making the mistake repeatedly.

I can’t evaluate our roster fully because they’re being used so poorly.

So, hopefully we win Europa, somehow, get back into CL and start a new era next year.

Still pissed we didn’t get Klopp. I know they have defensive issues but I think he will sort them out.

I think he’s sick of racism in Germany. Sounds like he’s leaving for sure.

Germany is a pretty accepting place, especially compared to Europe as a whole. I haven’t heard this racism claim you speak of, but it’s definitely not going to be better for him if he moves to Spain. England is probably about equal.

That’s ok because we play like a team from a third world country right now. Dortmund may make the champions league but I don’t think we will.

It sounds like it was one particular reporter and not the country as a whole.

quote:

Elsewhere, prior to his suspension at the weekend, Aubameyang accused a kicker reporter of racism. Professor Ludwig M Eichinger, the director of the Insitut für Deutsche Sprache -- the institute for German language -- told ESPN FC that the reporter's comments had been "thoughtless."

Man City pull out of race to sign Alexis Sanchez from Arsenal, based on current numbers demanded by #AFC + AS. #MCFC believe they were 1st choice but that Man U offering package higher than City would’ve paid in £60m deal last summer. TWIST City think Chelsea #CFC rivalling #MUFC

Maybe I am misreading the Ornstein tweet, but isn't that good news for Asenal. MU are offering more than City were in the summer. So, Arsenal got half a season from Alexis and will get the more money from it.
