Evening All. Hope you are all living the dream. Yes we are champions and no one can take that away from us.
Arteta was talking about reinforcements required and freshing things up. I'm sure he has identified positions he thinks we shoudl be improving on. It's now time for Berta to show his worth.
Get the palyers we need.
Get them early so that they can train proper as a team.
We have one of tthe best defence in the world, a really good midfield, and ok strikers.
We certainly have the best squad in the country but we need to improve quality. Here's hoping to Berta and Kronke doing their bit to improve the squad and the back room team.

Hi G4, mate, I think it's about balance, and bringing in quality additions without losing what we already have in our fantastic team spirit, and, in my opinion, wonderful humility. For me, it's very much like employing people in the real world, where it's important to hire people who not only have the ability you're looking for, but also have the personality to fit with, and buy into, your existing ethos.

Sadly, it looks like Saliba might miss the World Cup, as I read he played through an injury in the final and made the injury worse.

I hope all our players miss the World Cup or get out early, injury free.

G62, always good to hear the wise words from you. Yes, it's important to have someone who fits your ethos, and has a personality that fits, but occasionally you need to throw a rocket in just to wake everyone up.

Hi G4, mate, it's always good and very healthy to have fresh ideas and alternative opinions, but you don't want a rocket thrown in that blows everything off course. I really like our humility and our collective "win as a team, lose as a team" mentality, but much like with the Ramsdale/Raya decision, it's important to try to improve where possible, even when not always initially popular.
It's a real balancing act between not standing still, and, as a consequence, falling behind, and not acting in haste and repenting at leisure. Luckily for me it's not on my shoulders to get the balance right. ????

Get some people that will ruffle the odd feather & want to win. White fits but I don't want a player like that. Let's get a few winners who speak up and take us to the next level. Someone who wants to pass fast & forward, take a chance with a thru ball or a shot from outside the area.
We dont want cookie cutters - im not saying trouble, but look at how lazy Eze appears, how comfortable Ode is running round in circles. Let's be brave and go to next level.
