  1. Pathetic. That’s some aggy level shit. You can think a player isn’t a good signing, value for performance, etc. I did, but guess what. He’s an Arsenal player now. Get behind the lad, cheer for him, and hope he has lots of success while playing for The Arsenal.
  2. Yup. Trossard is/was hands-down one of the club’s best signings, an absolute bargain for what we paid vs what he produced. Wish him nothing but the best.
  3. Anne Hathaway will be crushed. Getting back nearly what we paid would be a great deal, though.
  4. I’ll happily eat crow if I’m wrong and will be disappointed if y’all don’t go full Surl on my ass if he’s a stud player. I’ll admit, if we were paying Brentford or Wolves £50m for a winger I wouldn’t be as hesitant. That said… IDK about this one. Berta and Arteta have a good hit rate on transfers, though.
  5. Kepa for £5m to be a backup GK? Deal. Jorg for £12m to be a midfield rotation guy and mentor to the kids? Bargain. Kai was a stretch; honestly, we overpaid. Now this dude? Chelsea is in PSR hell; why are we signing one of their rejects at full price to be a backup? Should be paying no more than £25m. Chelsea have 95 players in their squad and are in PSR hell; needs to be a discount for us to take him after their books, and even then I still don’t like the idea of reducing Ethan’s minutes.
  6. Wonder whether Max (or his camp) let it be known to Red Bull that he was opting out of his contract after this year. Losing Max and Adrian Newey, the best driver on the grid and the aero whisperer whose chassis have won 12 WCC and 14 WDC, in consecutive years convinced the Thai shareholder the team needed a reset. If they’re stuck with a tractor no one but Max can drive, RB might as well start the reboot now. If it’s a roll of the dice to get Max to stay…. Bold strategy, Cotton. From the POV of a driver…. 2026 is a new reg year. Would it be better to stick a year and see who nails the regs? Especially if you’re Max who would be wanted at every team? George must have been ecstatic at getting moved up to Merc in 2022: “I’m in a car that has won seven consecutive WCCs!” Only they messed up the regs. What if Max jumps to Merc only for Newey to do an Adrain Newey and design AM a title car. Seems better for Max to jump after 26, but WDIK.

    “I got the shotgun; you got the briefcase. It’s all in The Game tho, right?” One of the best lines in television history.

    FIFY. “You juke the stats, and majors become colonels.” Stuff was deep, truly.
  9. That you on the left with Donovan, Derka?
  10. If paying £50m for a Chelsea castoff in part causes Ethan to decide his future lies elsewhere… it will go down as one of the worst signings in club history. FUCK. THAT SHIT.
  11. Clive from ArsenalVision with two good points: 1. Gyökeres wants deeply to play for Arsenal. Not just a CL club. Arsenal. Sesko? Very much seems he is willing to wait and wants another club. This matters. 2. He runs and works his ass off, and has that hunger to score goals. Also… Arsenal previously signed a 27 year-old with an unconventional route to top flight football, and it worked out alright for Wrighty.
  12. Luckiest person of the weekend: Martin Brundle, who was asked by Hannah Waddingham for a “squeeze.”
  13. Yup. Not to mention a smaller fee on the 9 also allows us more room to maneuver on winger and defender deals. Also, should have thought a few years ago that £56m + 9-13m would be the bargain.
