Arsenal thread | 2025/26

[Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese]

Listening to Arteta the other day re Arsenal being short of numbers… it feels like it’s all got too much for him… I wonder whether his obsession is unhinging him. He’s starting to sound as mad as a box of frogs. Got a feeling it’s make or break for him this season.

It's strange because when he was here I always thought he was a calming influence when pep was highly strung.

He always had the eyes of a man only minutes away from spraying you with acid and killing you with a sharpened pencil.

Amazing news - we've just won the 'we've signed Victor Gyokeres' trophy!

Arsenal beat AC Milan in front of 22,813 in the national stadium, Singapore.

What is the point of these friendlies if no one watches?

Emotional day today. For beating Milan in Singapore we were awarded a trophy. All you City fans who said Arteta wouldn't win us a big trophy can put that in your pipe and smoke it.

'Champions of Singapore, you'll never sing that'.

The worrying thing is over 8k people have actually liked it! There's some odd people out there.

If you've ever visited the match threads on here, you'll already be well aware of that!

Fair play to him, that's a decent sense of humour he's got there.

I recall back in the day the Kippax singing “Are you watching Singapore” as we gave the rags a stuffing at Maine Road.

Quick update for anyone interested in what's happening elsewhere.

Gyokeres will be announced tonight, contract signed.

Eze deal pretty advanced with Palace so that's going to happen.

Arsenal potentially to make an enquiry for Antony Gordon.

No more purchases expected after that, will mean the transfers in will be;

Neto (GK)
Norgard (DCM)
Zubimendi (DCM)
Madueke (AM)
Mosquera (CB)
Gyokeres (ST)
Eze (AM)

And possibly Gordon

Outbound is

Reiss Nelson to Fulham on loan with obligation has gained momentum.

Gabby Jesus may be on his way to Flamengo on loan with a £25m purchase obligation (Flamengo spending their CWC money).

Expected also to sell Zinchenko and possibly Kivior, both to Serie A. Kivior is actually a really decent defender and I'd be sad to see him go.

He's taken Henry's number 14 jersey as well - big pressure.
