March 9Mar 9 We have a sporting director. I like this move. Berta’s an experienced operator in the transfer market and has a great eye for talent. We’re entering a very critical period (this summer window, key players starting true final two years and need renewals, etc); better to have a guy at the helm with skins on the wall. Spoiler Andrea Berta has reached an agreement with Arsenal to become their new sporting director. Berta became available in January after more than a decade at Atletico Madrid — where he was central to the Spanish team’s progress. The Italian was among multiple options Arsenal considered during a thorough process to replace Edu Gaspar after his resignation in November. It was driven by managing director Richard Garlick and executive vice-chair Tim Lewis, with Josh Kroenke involved throughout on behalf of the ownership and input from manager Mikel Arteta. Berta prioritised Arsenal above a number of other top-level opportunities and those suitors have been told about the 53-year-old’s decision. Jason Ayto, previously Edu’s assistant, has been occupying the role on an interim basis and was a contender to step up permanently. But it is the more experienced Berta who will take over in what is a major appointment for Arsenal and contracts are now being finalised. Berta spent 12 years at Atletico Madrid before leaving the club in January. He has built a strong reputation during his time in the Spanish capital and helped sustain a team that regularly challenges Barcelona and Real Madrid for the title, winning two La Liga titles, the Europa League and finishing as runners-up in the Champions League twice. He was initially appointed technical director at Atletico in 2013 before becoming sporting director in 2017. He previously held roles at AC Carpendolo, Parma and Genoa. On January 3, The Athletic reported that Berta was preparing for a possible move to the Premier League by studying English in London. Berta is accustomed to dealing with major transfers, having bought and sold players such as Antoine Griezmann and Rodri for large sums. The summer window of 2024 demonstrated Atletico’s ability to regenerate their squad, spending £180million on Julian Alvarez, Conor Gallagher, Robin Le Normand and Alexander Sorloth, and this has put Diego Simeone’s side in the La Liga title race mix this season. Former midfielder Edu was appointed as Arsenal’s first-ever technical director in the summer of 2019 before becoming sporting director in November 2022. He left the club in November and is set to take up a key position overseeing Evangelos Marinakis’s multi-club network that includes Nottingham Forest, Olympiacos and Rio Ave. Asked for a message for fans worried about the time a permanent appointment is taking, Arteta recently defended the club’s process. “The club is doing the process that we believe is the best to try to find the person that is the best one for the moment that Arsenal is in right now and that’s what the club is trying to do,” he said ahead of February’s Premier League draw at Nottingham Forest.

March 9Mar 9 Feels like it’s gonna be a long day, manure look content to sit 10 deep and just watch Arsenal pass the ball around the edges or drive into 4 guys in the middle
March 9Mar 9 What a stinker from Ethan today, basically a Sterling shift. I’d like to see White come on for Timber too, Timber has been very meh going forward.
March 9Mar 9 After a bit of reflection, it is a credit to the players that were still 2nd and in the CL quarterfinals after all the injuries we’ve had and the nature of those injuries (key players, timing, etc). And stop wearing the 3rd kit. Back to black is the way.
March 12Mar 12 20 hours ago, Derka said: Of course he said that. RvP, Nasri, Cesc, etc all said the same when they hit the two-year remaining mark. And all were gone within two years. If we don’t win serious silverware next year (and by serious I mean PL or CL, I could easily see him, and a few other key players, leaving. Careers are short, and world class players want to win things. The club and Arteta need to show out this summer window.
March 12Mar 12 If someone showed you that lineup 6 months ago, imagine what your reaction would've been.
March 12Mar 12 Author 37 minutes ago, Ted Lange said: Tierney at LW. What a season. bro, imagine being told before the season gang this would be out starting lineup in a round of 16 UEFA CL KO game. you’d have a stroke.
