I completely agree. It took me a little while to warm to Arteta because things got worse before they started getting better, but I trust him and Edu completely. The difference between missing out on primary targets now versus the past is that we move on to other primary targets instead of settling for players that don't make us better.
June 26, 20232 yr Finally. I'm not sure I'll ever acclimate to EPL transfers. Things get reported as "done" and then suddenly they aren't.
June 27, 20232 yr https://www.espn.com/soccer/story/_/id/37921361/man-city-90m-offer-west-ham-rice-rejected-sources 90mm rejected. Hopefully we're out.

If they accept City’s next offer, I would also love to see us hijack every one of their replacement targets. Edited June 28, 20232 yr by Dutch
June 28, 20232 yr Word is City has dropped out of bidding on Rice after the £105M offer. A conspiracy theory is that Arteta asked Pep to bid just so it’d light a fire under his board to get this done so he did it as a favor to his buddy. That would be one explanation why City put in a bid for a player they don’t need for any reason other than hoarding the best players on the bench.

Payment schedule should be on our terms now, too. Edited June 28, 20232 yr by Dutch

July 5, 20232 yr Apparently, Reiss’ contract expired @ midnight on the 1st, and he could have left on a free because the new deal wasn’t signed. But he didn’t. Another Hale End lad staying home. Edited July 5, 20232 yr by Dutch
July 6, 20232 yr One thing that I am really enjoying about this version of Arsenal is that players truly want to be on the club, and ownership is willing to pay to acquire and keep them. No watching our best players leave for other top clubs. No overpaying for scrubs and giving away actual talent because we are desperate. It's been a while since we had a clear vision of the club we wanted to build and a viable means to make it happen. I don't know if this will lead to any trophies, but we should at least compete for years to come.

July 6, 20232 yr The relationship got a bit rocky at times but finished with a nice redemption arc. Also, he loved scoring goals vs Utd and kicking the shit out of sh*t. One of Us. Xhaka's farewell post on insta: "some journey - and all that's left is for me to say thank you. I've spent seven years at Arsenal. The club has become such an important part of my life - and it's not easy to leave. But now is the right time for a new adventure. There are so many people I need to thank - the managers I played for, all my team-mates and the staff behind the scenes. And I especially want to thank all of you. Everyone knows we've been through some tough times. But we came through them together - and I'll never ever forget the feeling I had each time we won the FA Cup or whenever I heard you singing my name. Pure goosebumps! I will always carry Arsenal in my heart. Once a Gunner, always a Gunner. Thank you ❤️" https://www.instagram.com/p/CuXRYhFKvvc/?igshid=NjIwNzIyMDk2Mg%3D%3D Edited July 6, 20232 yr by Dutch

Born in Manchester and apparently was moving to Liverpool in 2020 before Mik convinced him to stay, so he's clearly been wanting to move closer to home for a while now. Seems like a loss, though.
