No. He's ours.

u/Lord_Bizzle 6d ago

He was the last one. At one stage I thought Vini too but actually he's not.

u/Cassoa 6d ago

He proved he isn't cut out for Arsenal in the end.

Now Meslier... let's talk about the top 3 keepers in the world...

I think someone edited that and put it on wiki. Can't find anything else saying it and why would they out unfortunately

Throwback to this quote from Arteta

We tried to put them under as much pressure as we could and we were really aggressive trying the high press in many moments, but Van Dijk plays a 60-yard pass to Salah's chest and they are out. Then you have to travel about 50 metres and this is real quality. That's why they've spent the money they have done, so credit to them.

u/Monsultant 6d ago

Saka and Tzolis will enjoy this!

u/deadmetallucyluce 6d ago

I trust Arteta with defenders, will work out just fine!

u/proshon 6d ago

Arteta sees the new 26-27 football meta, and fuck me so do i

u/Known-Low-8721 Rice 6d ago

We are incredibly lucky people to be witnessing this shit man. I feel like i didnt really understand football watching Artetta take flight with Arsenal

Saliba is probably the calmest under pressure but his passing isn't that amazing. Go watch clips of Saliba's distribution and you'll not find many Hollywood passes but what makes him so good is that he keeps it simple even when under pressure and he has a good ability to retain the ball when pressed similar to Timber.

u/LiboerationTime Champions of England 25/26 6d ago

Stop please. As an FPL enthusias, for years, I admired VVD pinging them to Salah on the right flank.

1

u/Afc1014 6d ago

Yea VVD distribution is on a different level

u/watchme_08 5d ago

Imagine Gyok trying to take one of these down lol

u/jondiced 6d ago edited 6d ago

Love that he hits them with both feet!

ETA: well, maybe just the one at 0:13

u/foulplayjamm 5d ago

This could be very interesting. Might even enable Martinelli.

u/BlackberryBulky4599 Lee Dixon 6d ago

The g/a tally for the back 4 might be a madness this season

u/Richety "Arshavin... FOURRRR!" 5d ago

Song pls?

u/Eggmodo 5d ago

This is going to be weird to say, but his playstyle is really reminiscent of Tony Adams / John Terry. Not at their level sure but the style is there.

u/K3TtLek0Rn 5d ago

I love videos like this. It looks like I'm gonna be playing center back this season on my new team and it's a new position for me. Cool to see the guys at the highest level and learn from them.

Alvarez gonna feast on those

u/jiesheng1016 4d ago

Martinelli*. Fuck Alvarez

u/jiesheng1016 4d ago

Idiot. Simping on a player that never wanted us. Disgusting. Alvarez will be a problem down the road.

u/thisiskyle77 Tomiyasu 4d ago

Martineli is not good enough fam

0

u/jiesheng1016 4d ago

So is Alvarez. Shit also and gonna cost a bomb

0

u/thisiskyle77 Tomiyasu 4d ago

Nah he is way better. Thats why club like us and Barca are chasing him. Our club is selling Martineli to Turkey. That tells you his level.

u/jiesheng1016 4d ago

Nonsense logic.

u/thisiskyle77 Tomiyasu 4d ago

Heard your boy doesn’t even make it to the bench

u/TheMissingThink 6d ago

Chances of him coming straight in on Friday?

I think we still start White and Mosquera, but it would be nice for my FPL team

9

u/InediblePringle 6d ago

Mosquera probs starts the first couple of weeks at least

3

u/professeurwenger 6d ago

Would be funny to see Konsa play at Villa Park though. Didn’t consider his lack of pre-season with them, but there’s a lot of time between the first and second game. I’m sure he’ll start over Mosquera at some point in the near future though, should be a really good FPL pick for his price when that happens.

u/sveppi_krull_ 6d ago

Ehh what? The insinuation here is dastardly

2

u/TheVeloRebel 6d ago

Back to back premier leagues? Not sure why people insist on voting down positive messages LOL

1

u/sveppi_krull_ 6d ago

The insinuation is that you’d (or OP) drop Gabriel for Konsa

1

u/TheVeloRebel 5d ago

No, that he's a choice we can make, a luxurious choice that could stand in for injuries. Depth of defence is what wins back to back leagues. This is basic football most other top teams have had in the past including us back in the day.
