There are so many healthy attacking options now.

Yeah. Alvarez would be good. Also auba was at his best (even if he hated it) under arteta as a LW. Atleast see if Gyok works there with more defensive support behind him. That's the only place he'd get the space he's used to.

Tbh I'm of the mind of waiting until Jude Bellingham is ready to leave Madrid and show him what he can do at 9 at arsenal instead of being a 6 who is Boo'd in Madrid. Watkins vs Kai vs Jesus vs Merino is like slightly different versions of the same level. We need to have another Rice level signing.

I really wanted Gyorkeres to work. We knew the risks. I don't hate they went for it but, not every signing works out.

Kai scored 17 goals in his previous 38 EPL games for us before his hamstring injury. I'm still in favor of searching for an improvement. But I'm not gonna pretend like we have just because we wanted it to be true.

That's what managers say when players have had huge money spent at them and they have to keep playing them.
He's working his ass off. I respect it but he's had plenty of time. He can try to make impacts in the cup games and as a sub until he starts to play better.

He's 26th in the EPL. He's playing on the best team. He can at least be top 10? He's had 20 games. He can try again next year.

Gyok has 11 shots on target in 20 EPL games played. He's had enough time it should be Jesus and Kai from here on out and he can earn his way back by scoring in late game situations.

He has 11 shots on target in 20 EPL games. Exactly what more information is necessary? He's not good. Tons of strikers look good in lesser leagues then can't cut it at the top level.

Just to stop making AHL fringe level defenders play on their weak side Line is a good reason.

The problem is it's all vibes. There's no standard to what is a foul. Is it impossible to foul an attacker with your arms? You can hold jerseys or no? Is tripping with feet is a foul? None of us have any idea anymore. Arsenal didn't do anything different. Gabriel is just a powerhouse so he wins

I have pictures of young dirk having ragers with Steve Nash. Like they are all over the Internet... People change after 25. Dirk and Nash were FINE.

The answer is this is personal from Nico. That's it. He's overpaid for key pieces and it has worked out. And now he overpaid for Anthony Davis. He overpaid for grant Williams, Gafford and Washington but it has worked. Now he overpaid with AD. He doesn't have to pay the bill. But we do.

Having to watch a team depend on dinwiddie instead of just benefit when he's used sparingly is torturous

About half of the crosses odegaard hit should have been shots. We dont even threaten that anymore.

Just don't throw the shoe a second time I think the ref probably knew he was wrong after would have let him get away with alot that wasn't that. Still Bruno definitely in the right

Same. I just count to myself every game all the "delayed restarts" that apparently they "had no choice" on
