Arsenal banter 2

08 Oct 2025 16:28:13
Looks like we might be getting a huge stadium upgrade

We will show who biggest club in England is


I can't believe if there is any gooner out there who will doubt the kroenkes

They certainly put their money where their mouths is.

08 Oct 2025 19:14:31
Yep - huge investment into the club and demonstrated their ambition, no arguments there.

How are you bud - hooe sll went well as could be.

08 Oct 2025 19:49:21
Hello Mal and Sy hope you are both well.
Great news, talk about playing at Wembley while the work is being carried out👍👍.

08 Oct 2025 19:50:48
Also the Kroenkes have the biggest NFL stadium in America where their team The Los Angeles Rams play.

08 Oct 2025 19:59:14
I have always been holding the kronkes to blame for their lack of investment in the club and really thought they are not the type to invest but the last few windows have proved me wrong.

Happy to be proven wrong and hope it continues.

08 Oct 2025 20:12:55
Evening sy n Billy mates

Feeling OK sy sure what can you do
Hope you're dad is comfortable

I see that Bill about the rams

Super excited.

09 Oct 2025 04:42:32
Now their talking about moving.

09 Oct 2025 16:03:14
Its a good time to be a Gooner. Enjoy the ride there's going to be many ups and downs but in the end we are all gooners.

06 Oct 2025 06:21:24
Steady performance from the boys, like to have seen big Vic take the penalty, he needs a few more chances created.

Hopefully MO will be back soon and Dec is ok.

06 Oct 2025 18:41:21
Banbury How's it going?

I don't think Marty will be missed

We have strength on the bench now, have never seen such a strong squad.

Martyr out with knee ligament injury

Arsenal confirm.

05 Oct 2025 20:12:53
To our captain, we wish you a speedy and successful recovery,
COYG.

05 Oct 2025 22:00:28
medial collateral ligament damage - minor 1-3 weeks moderate 2-4 weeks and severe 6-8 weeks 2 weeks for international break might not miss any games. Unlikely to be a severe one apparently as played on. Fingers crossed and Eze or Nwaneri as cover - squad depth working COYG.

06 Oct 2025 06:55:30
A martyr for the cause, Malaga?

Sussex - I'm still worried as I remember Timber playing on when he in fact had an ACL rupture. Let's hope it's nothing major but as you say, Eze came in partly to cover this scenario.

06 Oct 2025 09:40:56
The beauty this season is we have squad depth, although we do have enough to deal with the absence of Ode I am hoping we are investiagting what is causing a huge number of players injury when they are not even playing all that many games.

06 Oct 2025 23:13:35
Very true Wire and I guess none of us know yet. It was a poor challenge by MO bit self inflicted if unlucky. Fulham Palace Burnley and Sunderland then another International break then NLD. Got to be looking at winning these games - four wins really puts pressure on. It is SEVEN weeks until we slam the Spuds plenty of time for lots of recovery COYG

07 Oct 2025 13:41:27
The lad was just starting to show glimpses of his best from before the last time he was injured so this is a real shame. Hope someone buy him a burger or two.

#woulddoitagain #noremorse #notevenalittleguilty.

07 Oct 2025 17:31:43
Read he’s a pescatarian, not a vegan as he’d have told us! He’ll be like a new January signing and have to be on it to dislodge Eze 😀 COYG.

{Ed025's Note - sounds a bit fishy to me SUSSEX.. :)

07 Oct 2025 18:19:22
Someone please give ed025 his hat and coat and call him a taxi.

{Ed025's Note - its on its way Sharpey.. :)

07 Oct 2025 20:26:36
😂 ed025 Rochdale - proving I don’t hold a grudge you graded my joke during an international break as Wolves, when they were in the championship. As I say Rochdale, I’m not bitter 🤣🤣 COYG.

{Ed025's Note - i think you are SUSSEX...but just a little bit mate, i forgive you.. :)

05 Oct 2025 11:40:34
Good morning all!

While I'm not sorry for what I said in chat yesterday, I am sorry that others had to have their experience of chat ruined because of it.

Nice win but disappointed to see Ode injured again. Anyone else feel like he's looking lighter and scrawnier that seasons gone by?

05 Oct 2025 13:35:45
Mate you did nothing wrong, he baited you and has done for a while

You should of stuck around

Ih sharpie we trust!

05 Oct 2025 15:57:41
No apology needed and you were missed.

And pulled out of international duty. He needs a good recovery and when he was starting to look back at his best.

06 Oct 2025 08:16:49
Oh dear what happened here :)

05 Oct 2025 10:08:23
Who is your player of the season so far? Mine is Timber who has been awesome at both ends of the pitch, drive and attitude. The boy is a great signing and a winner.

05 Oct 2025 11:12:56
Morning sy, hope alls well…. Big thumbs up on timber. what a player. also think Riccy fury has been quietly and efficiently going about his business on the opposite side of defence. the mad thing is that once this squad really gets to know each others game. some teams are going to be getting thumped by the ARSENAL. I was looking at the difference between last season’s bench and yesterday’s. the difference in quality is absolutely nuts… COYG/ VTH 🔴⚪️❤️.

05 Oct 2025 11:16:23
Martinelli, simply because he annoys Mark (Malaga) so much, especially when he scores 😊😊😊😊.

05 Oct 2025 11:12:36
Im a big fan too SY. I love his drive and commitment.

05 Oct 2025 13:10:59
Yep - Calafiori is having a really good start and I wasn’t his biggest fan. Seems to have adapter epl better.

05 Oct 2025 08:30:03
Morning all Ed's and fellow gunners, hope alls well. nice home win yesterday. very comfortable throughout. in all honesty thought West Ham may have offered a bit more with new manager bounce and being a north v east London derby. could have and should've had more goals. so still a bit more improvement to be had on our behalf. one moment in the game caught my eye, and i thought it really showed the unity in our squad and a real bit of class from trossard. eze missed a sitter and Leo was on him in a flash. come on mate keep your head up. everyone is there for each other. love it. will say gutted for odegaard taking another knock. he was just starting to look like he was really finding his form. hope rice gets over his problem during the break. and lastly just wanted to say zubimendi different class. COYG/ VTH 🔴⚪️❤️.

05 Oct 2025 11:13:45
I noticed that as well Gabi and thought the same.

05 Oct 2025 13:13:23
Hammers whining about Rice being disrespectful. GET LIFE I SAY.

He’s moved onto bigger and better things and still shows you respect despite Hammers giving him 💩.

05 Oct 2025 15:04:04
I've never minded the Hammers, and if Arsenal ever ceased to exist, it would be a toss up between them and Palace I think as to who I would lean towards supporting. I wanted them to win the Conference thing when they did, but I was also surprised to hear some of their supporters 'gloating' about us finishing second again last year.

I'm sure they were singing with (Man Citeh? ) about that and cheering for City goals as they went in against them as it put the nail in our coffin. I may have it wrong who they were playing though.

I thought the two clubs got on Ok and there is the obvious hatred with Spurs we share. Do any other Gunners fans like or dislike West Ham? Or if any West Ham fans read this, what are your thoughts regarding The Arsenal?

05 Oct 2025 15:18:50
Regarding any set of football fans the world over… if your big enough to give it the large… then you got to have the minerals to take it… West Ham fans have a nerve… Declan has always shown respect towards them. if it was me and they gave me the crap they give him… I’d knee slide towards them with my shirt over my face ravanelli style. (a lot of you will remember ravanelli, some younger posters won’t. ) . so it was nice to see decs give a little back. about time… I remember adebayor running the length of the pitch to celebrate in front of us, absolutely hated it at the time. but understood the emotion. we had been slating him, and yes some of it was not pleasant at all… but guess what…. life goes on. he seems a pleasant enough bloke so no hard feelings. if you dish it, be big enough to take it… I love the banter at football….

05 Oct 2025 15:19:06
I was cheering for them to win too….

05 Oct 2025 20:17:59
You have summed it up in a nutshell Gabi mate.
If you can't take it don't dish it out.

04 Oct 2025 19:17:32
Nice easy 3 points for the boys today - nice seeing a braver midfield from the boss. Shame about Ode injury.
Victor needs to start doing something different to get on the scoresheet.
Well played boys!

04 Oct 2025 21:10:10
It was a good game mate, Gyokeres did well apart from getting the goal. i'm sure he will start scoring soon.

04 Oct 2025 21:14:18
It was Sy and most people on here ( me included) were putting time limits on MA tenure. Not because we lost or the performance even ( Slot said draw a fair result ) it was because MA and players weren’t brave enough at Anfield. Once we also get Kai, Noni and Jesus back we can rest even more players - C£ty did it for years resting players - but over a ten year period spending a billion £ more than us allows you to do that. I’m hoping that this squad allows us to compete for the whole season at a high level and not drop off like last few due to injuries. We shall see but we are in it COYG PS Liverpool are very good and C£ty why the meltdown- surely they’re still in it too. Baffles me.

05 Oct 2025 07:39:52
I think it's the manner of the losses that worries us the most, Sussex. We were slow and didn't seem like we knew what to do with the ball each time we had it. This is Lot's first time having a "crisis" of this level though so it's time for him to prove that he has the mettle going forward and drag us out of this rut.

05 Oct 2025 09:02:11
Defending a title has always been more for most teams nore difficult than actually winning a title Dracred. United did it repeatedly under Fergie and City under Pep but its always been a huge challenge for teams.

I think the difference between last season this one for you that last season Salah had the season of his career and was totally unstoppable plus you got the rub of the green with injuries.

Despite the banter I don't believe for one minute you are done and dusted for this season by a long way yet mate but I do believe your teams mentality is being questioned big time and you are going to have to come back after the international break with a very positive response to those questions or your season could very easily slide into meltdown on and off the pitch.

05 Oct 2025 10:00:29
Good to see us top of the table before the international break, let’s keep up this tempo and see where we get to. Squad depth is massive plus this season so we should be having a good go at all competitions.
Agree with G62 on Salah comment, this season Liverpool are missing TAA and Salah doesn’t contribute defensively. Slot will improve the issue and there will be real fight between us, Liverpool and City, I also think the spuds are steadily hovering around the top and could have a say in the title race.

05 Oct 2025 10:53:30
Spot on G62 - interesting to see how LFC react to pressure as it was the easiest league win I’ve seen for a while from injury and competition. We gave them a free run and City were poor. Pressure is on as trying to retain plus we have the squad to compete. Let’s see if they are bottle-jobbers or they fall apart with a bit of pressure like a Lego team. #fragileLFC.

05 Oct 2025 11:23:49
Hi Bill and Sy lads

Liverpools first game after the international break is home to Manchester United, fail to win that and the pressure on Slot and his players will increase dramatically, should they somehow lose that game then their armchair and internet fans plus the media will really turn on them BIG STYLE.

05 Oct 2025 11:53:41
I don't believe that we're out of it yet too G62. Way too early in the season to be throwing the title. Ed001 has provided some of his thoughts to why Liverpool are poor this season and it is a myriad of things. From the changes in personnel, to the training, to the change in playing style, etc. Sounds like too many changes all at once. Arsenal has a set way of playing under Arteta and although I don't agree with it, he has refined it and improved on it by buying players who fit that style.

I still think we can bounce back though but it is a massive ask. A lot of it depends on Slot for me and whether he can figure things out to make it all fit together.

Btw SY, if Arsenal wins the league this season, does it also mean that it'd be the easiest league win you've seen too due to competition and injuries too? ;)

05 Oct 2025 12:20:38
Hi Dracred you were without question the best team in the country last season mate, the Leeds team that won the last ever Division One title were the worst team I've ever seen win the league followed by the United team that comfortably won Fergie his last ever title, the Liverpool team of last season were far better than either of those title winning teams in my opinion.

I know a lot of Liverpool fans felt their team didn't get the recognition they deserved for being runaway champions and many were offended by Arsenal fans who were upset about us not getting 3pts at Anfield this season let alone a point, but i do hope that those Liverpool fans are now more understanding of other clubs fans who don't believe you are currently the force your title win last season suggested you were. The best team always wins the title over 38 games and every team finishes where they deserve to finish once those 38 games are played but sometimes one 38 game season isn't a true reflection of a teams overall quality.

05 Oct 2025 13:20:35
You were the best team Red without doubt and you will see on my posts how I’ve praised LFC. We imploded but you didn’t have any pressure really. Let’s see how this season plays out now we’ve both spent money to address squad. My question is how pressure impacts your team. Arteta imploded last time but hopefully he’s learned and it looks like he has and still is. Question is about LFC.

The Lego moment was on your fragile site from your fragile fans.

Well done last year. Deserved champions.

05 Oct 2025 14:06:08
Hi Dracred I think I posted on here that you had gotten out of jail ( Bournemouth, Burnley and Newcastle ) to be 15/ 15. We missed Saka Saliba and Ode I think at Anfield where if say vvd, Salah and Gravenberch were missing I think our squad depth would have helped us change our attitude. We perhaps gave you too much respect. The worrying thing yesterday was Wirtz Isak and Ekitike we all on and Chelsea had virtually no CB’s and nothing was happening. I’m sure Arnie will be back! I’ll get me coat COYG.

05 Oct 2025 14:55:44
Arnie did a brilliant job last season in seamlessly replacing the icon that was Klopp and delivering a title in his first season 👏👏👏👏

The question is now is can Arnie find his inner Kindergarten Kop and make everything better or will he need to find his inner Terminater and begin rebuilding in January, if Liverpool should lose to United and it will be Judgement Day for Arnies Army and he might need to top up on underwear or he'll end up having to go Commando by the time October is out and he'll need to dig deep into his memory banks to have Toatal Recall of last season. Alternatively will Arnie be offended by the Liverpool fans who are turning on him so quickly after winning the league and choose to become The Running Man?

Tune in after the international break folks for the next intriguing episode of This City (impression) Is Ours.

05 Oct 2025 15:21:24
Preferred Gangs of London but either way - the city is ours ❤️🤍.

05 Oct 2025 15:34:04
I agree about the point on the fans on the Liverpool site being fragile, SY. A few have already thrown in the towel and written off the league after 7 games. Tbh, I find you all have more faith in the Liverpool team than we do sometimes ;)

The league is shaping up to be more interesting than last season at least so it'll be a fun ride for us all.

05 Oct 2025 16:39:51
Hi Dracred, i think its absolutely crazy that some Liverpool fans are already turning on Slot and the team and writing off your season, not just after only 7 games but when you are equal top of the table on points🤔 I remember some Liverpool fans turning on Klopp early in the season after he'd delivered your first title in 30 years 🙄🙄🙄

It takes all sorts mate and its those fans who are reacting crazily to your early season blip and who are so crazily offended by Arsenal fans on this page feeling positive about their own teams chances who my jokes about Liverpool are 100% aimed at mate.

04 Oct 2025 19:46:05
This season Mathew, Liverpool are going to be! Manchester City 2024/ 25

Started off the new season where they finished the previous season until! Their first league defeat was followed by a champions league defeat a few days later followed by a second consecutive league defeat in a week.

Drum roll please 🥁🥁🥁🥁 this years Tears in Their Eyes winners are Liverpool Football Club 😭😭😭😭.

04 Oct 2025 19:30:06
Well done Chelsea

We are. We are.

04 Oct 2025 19:42:11
Some huge meltdown on the scouse live chat lol.

04 Oct 2025 20:35:13
Just been on there Mal, they are ripping Slot a new one. One even said I hope City win the title and not Arsenal.

04 Oct 2025 20:51:32
Having watched Liverpool's last three games, I'm fairly confident City are going to be the biggest challengers for the league this year.

04 Oct 2025 21:24:16
In which case SW come on you beautiful 🐝 🐝 🐝 COYB.
