🚨 On Rice — Arsenal plan to respect England and will only submit the bid after Rice comes back from international duty.
On Caicedo — Arsenal want to keep good relations with Chelsea and allow them to bid first and wrap up the deal quickly.

City have a better squad and manager but we have to look at ourselves here. We bottled two 2-0 leads in a row. Then conceded 3 goals against bottom of the table Southampton. It had nothing to do with City. That’s embarrassing from us!
🚨| Following Arsenal’s biggest squad rebuild, the club has decided to change the badge to more closely resemble the club’s “change in culture”. The decision was pushed by both Arteta and Edu.
Trusty the process 🤙🏼
They all speak the same ffs — the manager, players, top gooners, the PR journos. No one associated with the club seems to be gutted we missed out on top 4.
Someone remind Ramsdale this is Arsenal FC not Sheffield Udt. 🤙🏼
Aaron Ramsdale talking on the
@SeamanPodcast
:
🗣 “If we had said at the start of the season, we were chasing for fourth with an outside chance but we just got fifth. I think people would have been happy.”
The “biggest spending spree in their history” before even knowing if we are getting CL.
Already pushing PR to buy Arteta and Edu time until next summer. 😂🤙🏼
Arsenal are planning the biggest spending spree in their history - with up to £180million budgeted for summer signings. Arsenal want Isak, Calvert-Lewin and Neves. [Mark Irwin]

@axelthfc
This is why your club will be forever in our shadow. Instead of demanding your club to win games you focus on what losing means for Arsenal. Loser club. 🤙🏼
Yes, my fellow top gooner!
Let’s all laugh at Spurs for signing Perisic, while we signed Nketiah on a 100k a week contract.
A reminder Spurs has a top manager that beat us to top 4 and he will be backed with funds this summer. I really don’t find it funny.
Have some shame. 🤙🏼
Spurs getting their fans pumped about a £150m transfer budget, then they go and sign Ivan Perisic, a player Arsenal fans were arguing about 4 years ago for being too old 😂😂😂
So Crystal Palace missed two key players in Zaha and Eze. We apparently missed a player that was almost on his way out to Roma?
This performance emphasized the importance of having a competent manager. 🤙🏼
This performance further emphasised the importance of Granit Xhaka to this Arsenal team. He makes the likes of Partey play better. He gives us midfield balance.
“Any player we are linked to is really fulfilling for me. I have long argued in favour of whatever is fashionable at the time to dress up the process as success” 🤙🏼
Why talk about summer moves now? This clearly smells like PR to prepare the fans for a disappointing window. I hope I am wrong but we need signings NOW to help us compete for the title.
🚨 Arsenal are targeting a summer move for Declan Rice.

Chelsea and Leeds have reached full agreement for Raphinha! Official bid accepted around £60/65m [add ons included]. Main part of amount to be paid immediately. It’s done between clubs. 🚨🔵
#CFC
Talks now ongoing on player side on personal terms and contract. Boehly, on it.
Huge risk (foolishness) to sign a player that never performed in the Premier league. And for 65 mil. We never learn. This deal will give Chelsea the necessary funds to sign our main target in January, Moises Caicedo. We just won’t win the title like this.
Kai Havertz, first Arsenal signing as deal will be completed in the next hours — here we go ✅⚪️🔴
#AFC
◉ £60m guaranteed fee;
◉ £5m add-ons;
◉ Long term deal agreed;
◉ Medical tests to be scheduled.
Havertz will sign the contract this week, documents are being prepared.
Thoughts? I find it funny that Cesc comes back to Arsenal to get his coaching badges now that we are first and it is fashionable. I wonder where he would go if we were 10th and Chelsea first?
I just hope we make new legends at this club this season. I am tired of these 🐍
Can someone explain how Emery with limited resources managed to win the EL and now qualifies to CL round of 16. And we are supposed to trust a process that has taken us to mid table? I wanted Emery out but we are not significantly better.
I can confirm Arteta likes Maddison. Arteta is also a fan of Grealish… oh also a big fan of Messi and Mbappe.
But the fee will be an issue. 🚨
I can do journalism too. 🤙🏼
Seen some rumours about James Maddison to Arsenal tonight.
I'm told that Mikel Arteta is a huge fan of Maddison and he's certainly a target - but the fee will be an issue.
Chelsea also want him if they lose Ziyech. 🔴

Christophe Galtier is a great choice to replace Arteta. His record after taking over struggling clubs speaks for itself.
(1) Lille from mid table to 2nd, 4th and Champions.
(2) Nice from 9th to 4th, currently.
Both process and progress.
Give him the keys. 🤙🏼
With immediate effect — just in time to miss Brentford’s clash against Manchester City, while their 115 financial breaches remain unpunished. Football can be unfair.
Money talks. And Toney walks. 🤙🏼

He has also been fined with £50,000 —and warned as to his future conduct for breaches of The FA’s Betting Rules.
@afcpablo_
Stop being negative. Let the staff enjoy their holidays. We will only move when we feel 100% it’s the right move, at the right time, with the right weather conditions.
We have missed out on Kloop to keep a declining Wenger. We have missed out on Ancelotti to get a rookie Arteta. We have missed out on Nagelsmann to keep the rookie.
And we are running out of top managers...
#KroenkeOut
#ArtetaOut
@AFTVMedia
In short, Arteta.
This is what went wrong:
- Arteta didn’t play a striker
- Arteta plays Xhaka at LB against fast wingers
- Arteta makes subs in the 94 min. WTF.
- doesn’t sub off Ceballos with yellow card and playing shit.
- slow predictable football.
🚨 Cedric will stay at Arsenal after establishing his new role at the club. He is Win’s new trainer. These are the new roles for some players at Arsenal:
-Elneny: club vlogger
-Cedric: dog trainer
-Zinchenko: politician
-Holding: cheerleader/clown 🤙🏼
In recent years we have been the almost there club. Now we are closing the gap with the top teams in terms of performances thanks to Arteta but when it comes to closing deals for top players we are still far behind. We are still the almost there club. I am fed up.
Edu Out.
If Partey is not ready to play, why is he on the bench. If he is ready, then why is he not coming on?!! Then you Bring Eddie fucking Nketiah on, hoping he scores against Bayern at home??!!
Arteta, you dug your own grave!! 😡
Some fans turned against Henry for setting a high yet achievable target that Edu and Arteta cowardly avoided to set to avoid accountability. Talk about “culture”. 🤙🏼
Below is a reminder of what our biggest legend achieved by setting high standards for himself and his peers.
#NUFC
won’t employ ex-players or rookie managers and call it a Process. While they acknowledged it would take them a few years to compete, you know they are serious when they want Ralf Rangnick as sporting director and Graham Potter as manager to steady the ship.
Proper Process.
I am just tired of this saga. The only winners are Shakhtar, the player, his agent and journos. Demanding unreasonable amounts of money for a player that has more Instagram stories than goals. Let them have it. We should spend that money on Zaha/Trossard and a Partey back up. 🤙🏼
🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Chelsea board now in Poland trying to reach verbal agreement with Shakhtar for Mudryk and hijack the deal! Official bid ready close to €100m. 🔵
#CFC
Arsenal always been leading the race, in talks with Shakhtar after 3d official bid.
Mudryk position, now crucial.
Arteta woke up feeling dangerous 🥶
- 13 wins, 13 losses 🤩
- 9th in the league 😎
- lowest points in the league than any other Arsenal manager in recent times 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Edu:
- can’t get fees for players.
- can’t get contracts sorted.
- is not a great negotiator.
If most of the recruiting and convincing was done by Arteta (as we are told by the clubs mouthpieces), I see no good reason to keep this guy as director of football.
More than two European clubs are showing interest in Arsenal director Edu as he’s doing huge job - it’s true that his name has been discussed internally. ⚪️🔴
#AFC
Edu’s only 100% focused on Arsenal project & club see him as key figure.

Exactly. You can say he had ambition. True. But we stuck by him in his worst. He ditched us when we needed him most while he was at his best.
My small PR journo brain can’t comprehend why West Ham (2 year process) could beat European champions Chelsea. Why wasn’t it a “free hit” for West Ham?
But will will continue to give Arteta and the team excuses. Nothing will get in the way of them perks 🤙🏼
Arsenal will bid below the valuation after the Cup final. Bid will be rejected. New bid including different payment structure with an extra 5 mil will be submitted again weeks later. In the meantime, other clubs will outbid for Rice and sign Caicedo.
Plan very clear🤙🏼
