Apparently we played Luton behind closed doors today. Fuck knows why. Maybe to get used to midweeks? Feels pretty yikes though given Arteta literally just said there's too many games.

@Astrealix Just a glorified training session, rather than doing training.

[–] MHPengwingz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Luton has a bye week and probably third choice player training for us

[–] Astrealix@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

We're working on a contract for Ødegaard. Good.

Olise turned down Chelsea. Chad move.

Felix apparently is looking like a termination of contract with Atlético Madrid

If he's free we surely have to go for him.

Why the termination or why we should go for him? I think it'd be an absurdly good opportunity to get someone who can raise our level if he's available for free

[–] WorldcupCSR@arsenalfc.social 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

@Astrealix why get him? Serious question. If free he’d be on huge wages and for a player that Chelsea, athletico and apparently no one else really wants? I don’t see it.

[–] Astrealix@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wages would be a concern, yeah. But if we could get him as backup for Saka I think we'd be in a better position as a squad — and given the links to him previously I think there's something Arteta definitely sees in him.

[–] MHPengwingz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't think he was that impactful during his stint at Chelski to warrant us splurging on his salary

[–] Astrealix@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I mean, yeah at current levels absolutely not; but given there's only two weeks left of the window, I'm assuming he'll drop his demands.

There's always Saudis or the US lmao

Apparently Tottenham have some interest in Gift Orban. What a wild career trajectory he's had.

[–] MHPengwingz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I thought man wanted to win something 😂

[–] Astrealix@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Probably another stepping stone lol
