So surprised this showed up in my YouTube feed just now. You'll have to click on the link or the video to watch on YouTube, settings are turned off. Some cool scenes from signing day that didn't make the Arsenal video. I hope to see more Eze Family videos! youtu.be/roxhy3QgXZY?...

Combine that with the fact they are short in defense across the board, that could be dangerous for them. I also think they are lighter in numbers with wingers. I want us to win the title with them at their best but ๐ฌ.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
People don't watch. Facts. Also, I wasn't angry after the match but I am now. Why? What were our physios/mgmt thinking to let him play when his ankle was crocked? We wasted a sub that didn't have to happen, put Mosquera in cold, and potentially made Saliba's injury worse. WTF, will we ever learn?
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
They are even weaker in their fullback areas too. Had no idea they loaned out Tsimikas. Robertson isn't as physically robust anymore and Bradley gets injured a lot too.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
Absolutely massive. It's wild how their coverage at CB is worse than last season. A starter with one foot out the door while the other is going to need to purify himself in the waters of Lake Minnetonka daily to keep his hamstrings from shutting down. A definite + became a - for them.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
They had all summer to make a higher bid or find another option. Liverpool can only blame themselves.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
Fine with me, his loan frees up wages that we would have to pay him. Good deal for all parties. We won't make any money on a sale (nobody would bid for him at those wages) but at least we save ยฃ5mil.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
It must be in the contract that you have to be handsome or beautiful to play for The Arsenal. Both our men and women clean up quite well.๐
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
Same. Honestly I'm more excited to see where the season takes us. Or maybe it's because my delicious chicken and waffles has me doped up right now.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
I know he absolutely loves Arsenal and the reality will hurt him, but as someone that loves Martinelli...I think a change of environment would be good for his career. It pains me to say that, but he's dropped far down the pecking order.

I want to say something about that young bloke but I'm going to hold my tongue. Let's just say I hope it comes true.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
That might end up being a Puskas candidate when it's all said and done. It was looking like a draw all day otherwise. No need to throw the baby out with the bath water. I feel bad for you mate, I know that cesspool is critical for your work. My mental health is too precious for that.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
We have to free up our attacking rotations. 30 touches in the box and only 1 shot hit the target. We MUST be better and we will improve massively, I'm sure of it. Mosquera my guy, I'm massively impressed. Mads is going to do madness this season as well. ๐ Not majorly disappointed, it's early we move
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social)
Fair play, it took a moment of brilliance from Liverpool. Otherwise, match was pretty even and we kept Liverpool at bay. It's clear both squads are going to need time to gel. The season is still early but some heavy hitters went off injured, it will be interesting to see who can survive it better.

SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent

Chiesa going on and Konate going off. Liverpool are going to be extra open now defensively. We need to take advantage.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social)
Mate....I chat up the woman at the Canadian diner, and press play on the steam to see Saliba being substituted. Wtf happened man? Why do our defenders always get injured against Liverpool?๐ฉ
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social)
Today for the most part (Burnley what are you doing?!!) would be an epic day for the hate watchers. That wouldn't be me, but waking up and seeing these results are quite something. This season is going to be exciting, that's for certain.

Honestly.....fairs.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
Damn, they pretty much told him to GTFO and kept him away from the squad. Delap gets injured and they keep him from going to a dream scenario. If he were crashing out right now, he would have a very valid reason. Thank goodness we don't treat our players like this.

SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social)
Arteta, Berta, and Co crafted this transfer window as if they were Michelangelo painting the Sistine Chapel. This summer has been insane...the level of which the floor and the ceiling have been massively raised is absolutely incredible. No divine right to win anything but hot damn come on y'all!
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
Can we have a honest discussion of how most other leagues are so skint when it comes to having the ability to stump up cash for more esteemed players? The PL over here breaking records, while other leagues offer up a loan fee of a basket of chips & then pay later/less. Such a massive discrepancy.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
Are they still painting them incorrectly?๐ It's maddening here with the flags as well. Yesterday I saw a small truck with no less than 10 American flags and a couple Confederate flags hanging off of it. These cults are everywhere.

Unreal. Back in 2022, I missed Alice Phoebe Lou and saw Men I Trust while visiting my best friend from Norway in NYC. Tonight I got to see both of them (albeit one in Strongboi) back to back. Fantastic, the only thing that I captured from tonight.

Eze was asked to rank the level of physicality in the PL, Championship, and League 1. The presenter expected the Championship to be highest but Eze said the PL no question was the most physical based upon his playing experience.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
Damn Palace, go on y'all. That's very good business.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
That's a good price. They are getting a stellar player in my opinion. Injuries were his only obstacle.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
Yes, but mainly left back competition. MLS moves into midfield roles.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
There's definitely enough minutes to go around in this squad. He'll mainly be competing with Calafiori as MLS will get more time in midfield positions. Plus he probably doesn't fancy staying around Ten Hag......seems like a lot of players have been jumping ship from Leverkusen.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
Good, we are about to lose two left footed defenders (speculatively around ยฃ200K/week and I feel pretty confident about that. Will be nice to have a speed demon who can defend well, craft wonderful crossing opportunities and guess what.....be another monster on set pieces. Hopefully we sell fast.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
No mate. Kuba and Zini (both left footed) will be sold, MLS will be pushed up into his preferred positions and Hincapie he'll be backup at CB and direct competition with our Italian Stallion at LB. Everything didn't work out in time to get Hato in, so we are pivoting.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
Eze will be the one to wipe away the bad juju of the #10 shirt, been cursed after God left us. Van Persie was great for a season and half then left Gallas..... Wilshere injured mainly in the 10 kit Ozil fell off a cliff, was largely dropped if not injured and left us Smith Rowe injury plagued
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
Both Mads and Gabi have a history of terrorizing Liverpool. Hopefully we can get by with the loss of Saka and ร. In a strange way although the injuries suck, I am glad both of our guys won't be going away on internationals especially after what happened last season.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
For me that is great news, perhaps the knee injury isn't anywhere as significant as once thought. Hopefully this means it will all work out. ๐
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social)
I'm no medical professional, but I just went back to watch the Eze unveiling and I saw something interesting. If Kai had a somewhat serious knee injury, wouldn't he be on crutches walking out? Watch the video, I've time stamped it. Kai is in the white cap and blue hoodie.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
Yeah in the first match, Kai had long sleeves. I was quiet saddened when I noticed that.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social)
Today I learned what a battery terminal fuse is on a car and helped the younger brother out being stranded. Missed a good portion of the match and going back to do a rewatch now. I'm really interested to see how we are evolving offensively.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
Supposedly West Ham is interested. Either that or Leverkusen.

SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social)
But but but...why did we waste money on signing Madueke? ๐คก He was decent today. Imagine now with Saka possibly being out for a while where we would be now? One thing I learned from last year is to not worry if certain players won't get game time. Injuries happen...more than you think.

I just saw Arteta's post match comment. Something along the lines that we learned our lesson last year but it doesn't look too good. Definitely something with the hamstring.

I know narratives are big amongst fans and the media/TV for obvious reasons, but do the players actually care?

There's going to be some tasty fixtures in the Premier League this season due to some narratives. * Liverpool/Newcastle Utd over Ekiteke/Isak *Forest/Crystal Palace over UEFA qualification *Arsenal/Spurs over everything else with an Eze on top *PGMOL/football competency & fans (please fix up)

Declan Rice. As crazy as it sounds, the advent of social media being as universally (Twitter/Reddit/anything Meta) used as it is now is something relatively recent. The Ozil transfer broke for me more through official publications and news sites/YouTube.

Life comes at you fast mate. This has to be the craziest Arsenal transfer window for Gooners in media. Pure elatedness/disappointment followed by the realization that the nearly finished article you started a few hours ago needs to be thrown out.

SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social)
Goes to sleep heartbroken over Kai news. Wakes up....wtf?!!!! Crazy news but by the numbers this in no way replaces a 2nd CF option or starting LW...could there be more potential business after this? Palace loses a gem but gives them almost 2 weeks to reinforce, good for them/Glasner. I like them.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social)
Seems like a sizable group of the Goonerverse was crashing out yesterday. It's my turn now. I hope it's nothing super serious...I expected a massive season from him. I'm going back to bed and pretending I never woke up and saw any of this. ๐ฅบ๐ญ
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social)
Oh dear. Just checked my YouTube feed and saw that saw that Trossard agreed to a pay rise. While I'm confused why they decided to do it now...I'm seeing crashouts on here (Eze situation too) which is typically rare. Can't imagine the chaos on the bad place. #Arsenal

It's a miracle. Kim Little is ALWAYS forgotten about when it comes to accolades. I can't believe she finally gets her dues.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social) reply parent
Cala for the most part was defensively solid, ร is nearly all the way back. G14 is not settled yet nor 100% match fit, it will take time. King Kai would have started if not for the injury he had. Leeds will be good to get the MF/FWD line more synced up before the trip to Anfield. Up the Arsenal.
SilverArrows47 (@silverarrows47.bsky.social)
My thoughts on the match..if Utd play like that for most of the season they'll be much better than last. Defense scrambled but were ultimately immense. Hope it's nothing serious with Rice coming off with what may have been a knock. Midfield will need more time to gel but when they do...watch out.
