My predicted lineup for the opening day of the season @ FulhamFC

Auba Eddie Pepe

Tierney Xhaka Ceballos AMN

Gabriel-Luiz-Saliba

Leno I may mute this because there will be a lot of controversy over this.. but I think this is what we will start out with for the first game.

Assuming Gabriel is signed, but there are no other incomings or outgoings.. what would be your team for the opening match?

The rebuild this summer is advertised to be may carry into the season.. my team below. Martinez
Bellerin
Saliba
Luiz
Tierney
Xhaka
Torreira (sold?)
Willock
Pepe
Laca
Auba

My point is that this team is worse than the one that won the FA Cup. If Arsenal want to become more competitive in the league this year the business needs to be wrapped up quickly.

Mini Thread: I believe it is a matter of time before Thomas Partey is an Arsenal player. Our main midfielders last season included Guendouzi, Xhaka, Ceballos, and Torreira. Of these players listed, Ceballos is with Real Madrid and Arsenal are trying to sell Torreira and Guendouzi.

Gabriel went from being one of rival fans top targets to sign to being “so overrated” just because he’s going to Arsenal over their team.

He’s the same player he was a few months back. A talented player that has loads of potential and coachability. Image

Rumors going around that Raul Sanllehi has been sacked by Arsenal due to an internal dispute involving the Kroenke’s and Tim Lewis. I would wait to reserve judgement if this is a good thing or a bad thing based on details that follow and if it is true or not.

Arsenal Legends Series: Dennis Bergkamp (A THREAD)

Arsenal are strongly linked with 17 yr old Portuguese midfielder Joelson Fernandes who has a rumored price tag of 45 Milllion. My thoughts below. Image Joelson has made 28 appearances in the Liga Revelacao (Portugal U-23 League) returning 5 goals and 2 assists. While these numbers are not mind blowing, keep in mind that he is 17 years old and has shown flashes of tremendous potential.

David Luiz has attempted more shots this season than any Arsenal midfielder in the Premier League.

Luiz 🇧🇷 22
Torreira 🇺🇾 21
Ceballos 🇪🇸 13
Willock 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 13
Xhaka 🇨🇭 11
Guendouzi 🇫🇷 11
Özil 🇩🇪 9

Madness. Image For those wondering in comparison to other teams this isn’t because David Luiz shoots too often, it is because of how little our midfield decides to shoot.

A THREAD:
There has been a lot of talk about the cultural shift at Arsenal under Arteta. Meet Steve Round, a football journeyman who is Arteta’s right hand man for developing culture and enforcing the “non-negotiables”. The perfect man manager for a young and developing squad.

Did some scouting last night on RB Salzburg attacking midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai. One of my favorite players I’ve scouted. An injection of direct play and creativity into whichever midfield he walks into. Image What I Noticed
-Tremendous skill on the ball and makes defenders look silly
-Dead ball specialist
-Great at disguising his ball advancing passes
-Can hit the ball in many different ways to pass or shoot

A THREAD: Why Arsenal are interested in signing Thomas Partey. A physical midfielder that can bring much needed athleticism, ball progression, and structure to midfield. A new dimension for an otherwise young team.\

Difference maker. Image Disclaimer: I am not ITK. I have no more information than you if Partey is going to sign. Through this thread I will look deeper into what he can bring to the team if the deals gets over the line. Enjoy!
