So that means we’ll possibly have four matches in seven days, three of which are very high leverage:

•    ⁠Shit (A) September 15
•    ⁠Bolton (H) September 17
•    ⁠??? UCL (presumably) September 19
•    ⁠City (A) September 22

Damn. And we seriously need some attacking reinforcement.

Make that happen; Comen would COOK in our system. We desperately need to add attackers before the window closes. Currently, our attacking depth is perma-injured Jesus, Trossard, and…. Nelson. That ain’t going to win the League or anything else. 

#214

 

Arteta bro we need an attacker by tomorrow’s deadline day and this is what your doing ? https://t.co/giJvSgXiP3

Away at Milan.   Waiting or our other Pot 1 opponent, down to Paris, Madid and Barca

Down to either Paris or Madrid.   It will for sure be Madrid.  F

Well, Liverpool got Madrid, so our Pot 1s are Away Inter Milan, Home Paris.   Couldve been worse.

Could’ve been worse.  No one we can’t beat on our day; no one we can’t drop points to, either.

Arsenal have been offered both Coman and Sterling, and are weighing up a deal - but willing to keep options open for FridayArteta likes Sterling from their time at City, but he would need to settle contract issues with Chelsea and take a wage cuthttps://t.co/fcnyL7E7uO

Add one of those 2 and this is a solid B+ window.

let sterling be arteta’s latest reclamation project, says i. if arteta wants him then that’s good enough for me.

Maybe we should’ve, I don’t know, not sold Ramsdale without a deal in place? Everyone knows we need a keeper, so the price is going to double on anybody.   
 

FFS indeed

BREAKING: I’m now being told that Neto is now a done deal, straight loan no option or obligation. Will undergo medical tomorrow. https://t.co/KxH87BzoM2

If this frees up 30m more to sign attackers, fine.   If not...

🚨BREAKING: Mikel Arteta confirms Mikel Merino picked up a shoulder injury in his first Arsenal training session yesterday.He was in so much pain after big Gabi fell on top of him during yesterday’s session.The Spanish midfielder is expected to be out for a weeks at least.

they say it’s fractured:

🚨🔴⚪️ Bad news for Arsenal as Mikel Merino is injured.“He has a shoulder injury and it looks like he will be out for a few weeks”.“He landed on the floor and Gabi landed on top of him, it's a fracture probably”, Arteta says via @NizaarKinsella.

 

#233

There is the international break after tomorrow, so the next match vs Spuds is 2 weeks away, then Bolton cup match, then maybe he is back for the Man City match on the 22nd.

#235

Hope I’m wrong, but fractured bones usually take the number of weeks that add up to months.

#236

Yep, late September is probably best case.    Considering our injury luck last year (especially considering Arsenal's injury history) this was bound to catch up with us.

So; ESR, Eddie, Viera, gone.

Added; Merino and Califiori.

What a meh window.   They desperately needed an Eddie replacement and someone to challenge Martinelli.    Arsenal has 6 attacking options to play 3 positions and 1 is injured and is the only backup 9.   Maybe the Eddie deal doesn't get done now and was contingent on Arsenal signing a replacement.

Unless Arteta decides to change the formation to 4 midfielders, this just isn't enough cover for the next 4 months up front.

That being said, the back four is absolutely loaded.

#239

We’re dangerously thin upfront. Trossard/Gabi and Jesus (when healthy) are the only difference-makers. Not enough, especially with two extra CL group matches and a possible two-legged play-in for the round of 16.

we’ve got to have some last minute attacking help on deck. surely we’ve got another signing coming in. in arteta and edu i trust, but we’re too thin up front to compete with city.

#242

Merino (when healthy) will be a really good addition. I think it was underestimated just how much Martinelli thrived by playing infront of an experienced left 8 (Xhaka); adding an experienced pro should help him. 

Calafiori is what we needed: a left back who’s solid defensively and has ball skills and can play across the defense (Tomi’s injury looks worse than initially thought, since Arteta gave no timeline). 
 

Offloading ESR and Eddie for £60m of pure PSR profit and loaning off Fabio was good business, especially since they were out of favor with Arteta. 

The Ramsdale saga was a debacle; we could’ve sold him last summer for £50m, had Arteta brought in Raya early. Instead, we sold for less than we bought him for.  

Replacing three attaching players with no one, though…. Arteta must be banking on the he fact that we have Mr Miyagi as a trainer to do that hand clap trick every week, because we’re one  more injury to an attacking player from being turbo fucked  

Overall window grade: C+. With you it’ll rise to a B+ if we somehow (unlikely) add a winger. 

#243

Just saw the Merino news, man we are snake bitten.   Also saw Sterling from Chelsea might happen.  Not my dream attacker to add, but maybe better than nothing. 

#244

There are 17 PL matches from now until the winter window opens Jan 1 and 4 matches in January.   The team as constructed is good enough to stay within shouting distance of City (IF we have near perfect health for the next 4.5 months).  

If we are being honest, the chances of topping the machine that City currently is, is at best 1/3, despite how close we were last campaign.  It feels like the only real chance anyone in the league has of toppling City is; Pep retiring or City finally getting docked 10+ points.

We were incredibly lucky that Saka, Havartz, Ode, Rice, Gabriel, Saliba, and Benny Blanco were able to play 95% of the minutes last season. The likelihood of all of those players doing that again isn’t great. There is at least some cover at defense. Up front? We best pray, light candles, and say our Rosaries, top off Jobu’s rum, etc all day every day.

Sterling for cheap (~£ 10-15m) and Chelsea covering most of his wages could actually be a good signing. He’s worked with Arteta before, knows the basic system, and is an experienced winner in the League at a position we desperately need reinforcement. 

#247

Any player that is clearly better than Reiss would go a long way.   Im not veryhopeful at this point though.   I do wish our guys would opt to skip the international call ups.

May be a late development with Raheem Sterling as sources close to the #ENG international indicate talks ongoing between #CFC AND #AFC over a potential loan deal. Still no direct talks between Sterling and any club but he would be open to reuniting with Arteta.@talkSPORT
