From David Ornstein:
Arsenal working to sign Piero Hincapie from Bayer Leverkusen - subject to player exits. 23yo defender told #Bayer04 of wish to leave + prioritising #AFC above others. Efforts ongoing to make fee more realistic than €60m clause
Not sure why we need another defender. Romano saying Toots are in for him.
1.) 25 Aug 2025 17:04:50
Guess he’s a replacement for Kiwior and once Kiwior and Zinchenko are sold we have 7 defenders- Hincapie makes 8 and can cover LB and CB. No idea if he’s any good - seen him mentioned across the sites but if he’s an upgrade then ? . Maybe Saka not missing many games hopefully maybe waiting for Jesus to cover come October time. Just hope Victor stays fit - seems risky - one Hincapie=1 Watkins but need two defenders in each position I guess COYG.
2.) 25 Aug 2025 17:23:21
?? some on the pool page wondering why with ( once Kiwior and Zion go ) seven defenders we need another defender while they have NINE and looking to buy Guehi! Why let the facts get in the way of a good post COYG Ed01 seems to rate him too, good enough for me.
3.) 25 Aug 2025 20:53:49
It's probably a replacement for Kiwior as you say, mate. An expensive replacement for someone we'll only likely get 20-25 million for.
4.) 29 Aug 2025 05:58:36
Context is important Sussex. You're counting defenders as a whole whereas we're looking at CBs. We have four at for two positions with one looking to leave whereas you all already have 6 CBs and are looking to add one more. Maybe it is Arteta's ultimate game plan to fill his entire starting 11 with them eh? He's already more than halfway there ;)
5.) 29 Aug 2025 10:20:42
Who are these 6 CBs we have Dracered? Talk about intentionally taking things out of context!
6.) 30 Aug 2025 10:39:18
White, Mosquera, Gabriel, Saliba, Calafiori, Timber. That's six right there.
And before you say that White, Calafiori, and Timber aren't CBs since they play as RBs/ LBs for you, I would just like to add that they were primarily playing as CBs in the previous clubs before they moved to Arsenal. Similar to how Hincapie is playing as a CB now for Leverkusen.
7.) 01 Sep 2025 01:48:25
So by your own admission three of them have formerly played at CB, thus your chat is abysmal. Saka is a LB coming next?
22 Aug 2025 17:40:03
Anyone know if there's any truth to the rumour that Arsenal are looking to bring in Malick Fofana?
1.) 22 Aug 2025 18:17:07
I can comfirm mate I've never heard of him
How are you buddy?
20 Aug 2025 21:37:36
From Fabrizio Romano:
Crystal Palace accept tonight £60m package from Arsenal for Eberechi Eze, agreement club to club done.
Arsenal finalising contract terms with Eze with player keen on joining #AFC project.
1.) 21 Aug 2025 07:25:17
I can't wait to see him. play for us I'm. a big eze fan.
24 May 2025 11:06:54
Talk going around that Nwaneri isn't signing a new contract. That will be a huge disappointment because the kid showed a lot of promise.
1.) 24 May 2025 14:43:20
That will be a very bad situation, us mates were discussing if we get another winger and Martinelli and Trossard stay, then it will greatly limit Nwaneri’s game time so should he be sent on loan? He should be developed as Odegard’s successor and rotate with him if he doesn’t go on loan.
{Ed014's Note - Max Dowman is waiting in the wings.
2.) 25 May 2025 07:21:09
14, you reckon Dowman is a better prospect than Nwaneri? I've never seen him play so don't know much about him.
{Ed014's Note - to be honest he looks like he is but at only 15 it’s difficult to know and I’m not a fan of putting undue pressure on youngsters.
It’s not that I don’t think Nwaneri will be class, he really needs a good run and I wouldn’t want to lose him for sure.
3.) 25 May 2025 22:51:25
I'm surprised to hear we're extending Trossards contract, two back up LWs? .
Nwanieri has bags of potential and he'll know he's good enough to play but rightly doesn't fancy his chances of taking Ode or Saka's positions. You'd very much hope we'd send on loan or at the very least include a buy back, but this PSR nonsense has really been financially motivating teams to sell off all their academy talent.
I hope he stays.
4.) 26 May 2025 02:51:36
Are there genuine rumours or is it all coming from Ben White saying that it's unfortunate Nwaneri has Saka and Odegaard ahead of him? He's still a kid and he'll get a lot of games. Saka needs a rest from time to time and Odegaard has not been untouchable this season.
Agree that Dowman looks unbelievable though. Long term surely we want to be starting both if they progress like they have been?
5.) 26 May 2025 17:41:40
Have a look at Dowmans reels on Youtube, kid is a phenom.
6.) 26 May 2025 20:45:28
Scored a beauty for England under 17s against Czechia.
{Ed014's Note - he’s a gem mate, got to hold on to him!
7.) 26 May 2025 20:50:35
Think that's why Arteta is pulling him into the squad at such a young age mate and deffo.
{Ed014's Note - fingers crossed mate, hopefully get some minutes next season in the cup games.
12 Dec 2024 22:12:19
Seeing rumours linking us with Ashworth. Not sure I'd like him at Arsenal.
1.) 13 Dec 2024 01:08:39
I'm sure I read he wanted Southgate at United, i hope we steer clear.

I only trust one thing in the newspaper these days:
Fish and Chips.
And even that I take with a big pinch of salt.
1.) 15 Oct 2025 12:13:22
You had me in a pickled onion there mate.
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?
1.) 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!
2.) 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.
3.) 06 Oct 2025 08:16:49
Oh dear what happened here :)
15 Sep 2025 15:52:31
Popped round for the week's round up but looks like "someone" is slacking.
{Ed001's Note - it was up this morning mate. I had it finished in the early hours before going to bed.}
1.) 15 Sep 2025 17:23:10
I found it on Liverpool page. Seems like it wasn't posted here at all. I guess they were banned from the Arsenal page because of the hair flick jokes.
2.) 15 Sep 2025 18:42:15
Had to go find t on the United page as the pool page seemed to be down.
Ed001, how come it wasn't posted to the Arsenal page, mate?
{Ed001's Note - I don't know, it should have done. I have asked Ed33 about it mate. I got up early especially to post it for the morning autolink, so it should have done.}
3.) 15 Sep 2025 19:15:04
Good read though, mate. What are your honest thoughts on wirtz and kerkez? Still settling in? Haven't seen a great deal from them. Kerkez looks a bit of a liability.
It seemed you were a little harsh on the Arsenal, but really you're suggesting we should have done better than we did in the game. As Arsenal fans, I think most of us are just glad we played mostly on the front foot. The game against pool was dire.
{Ed001's Note - it was more about how bad everyone was this weekend. It was an awful weekend for football.}
13 Sep 2025 11:44:03
Hoping we put Forest to the sword today. No sideways/ back passes. Just want to see total intent to win. Would love to see Gyokeres get the service he deserves.
COYG.
1.) 13 Sep 2025 12:59:04
Let’s hope so ?.
2.) 13 Sep 2025 15:46:34
Job done on all counts! COYG.
3.) 13 Sep 2025 18:41:49
Absolutely Sus! They looked good out there today. Really liking that Mosquera lad; he's just so calm and composed.
4.) 14 Sep 2025 08:10:38
Morning Sharpie! Absolutely and when you consider Saliba, Saka, Odegaard and Rice missing from all or most of the games it bodes well for the season. Not only did we replace them dare I say they weren’t missed. Obviously they come back and quite rightly so. going to be a rollercoaster ? COYG.
24 Aug 2025 21:39:58
Once a Gunner always a Gunner. ESR denies United a win. Oh no!
1.) 25 Aug 2025 00:28:42
Iwobi with the assist (;
25 Aug 2025 20:53:49
It's probably a replacement for Kiwior as you say, mate. An expensive replacement for someone we'll only likely get 20-25 million for.
17 Jun 2025 18:42:05
Mal, you've definitely been drowning in the black stuff.
16 Jun 2025 08:44:22
SY, I wasn't here when it happened, but I heard he went more boy racist than boy racer, and he got the boot.
12 Jun 2025 21:55:30
Don't be daft! I'm not that far off the reservation ?.
{Ed014's Note - ???
12 Jun 2025 21:43:09
No idea what you mean, I look like that Lamela chap! iykyk.
{Ed014's Note - and driver a Subaru by chance? ??
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 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.
03 Oct 2025 17:35:38
He's never going into a church! He's spontaneously combust.
{Ed001's Note - that probably explains why he has vanished....}
29 Sep 2025 13:56:10
The only time I can honestly say I've seen Liverpool mention on here is when one of their fans comes on here and we wish them well. United and Tottenham on the other hand, well I feel they just bring it on themselves ?.
