It's a move which makes sense for Virginia. He goes from being an academy GK here at Arsenal to maybe 3rd or even 2nd choice GK with you guys. Even if he plays predominantly in the U23s, that's still better than being the GK for the U18s at Arsenal. I have a sneaking suspicion that, for...

The premier league is dross tactically, managers who have struggled in different countries go to England and do just fine. Pochetinno, Ranieri, Sanches Flores to name a few had spotty records before making their way to England where they've done just fine. England is tactically regressive, to...

An overview of Favre I posted on another forum which I think might be relevant and may get you guys excited: Favre took Echallens to the highest they've been in the Swiss league structure, took a Yverdon-Sport team strugglng at the bottom of second division Swiss football to promotion and...

Forget about de Boer, forget about Mourinho, forget about Moyes, forget about Pellegrini and forget about Koeman. Only one man who should be considered for the role of Everton manager, and that man is Lucien Favre. One of the most underrated managers in world football, has succeeded everywhere...

You guys play some superb football at times, and are also building a very capable squad, with some clever and acquisition, but the team seems to lose its concentration at crucial moments which is incredibly frustrating, you should not be anywhere near 11th place. Martinez definitely has his...

Very happy with this win, you guys are never easy opponents and this was no different, especially considering our midweek exertions against Bayern. You guys gained a bit of a foothold towards the end of the match as our legs started going, and had two very good chances but in all honesty, the...

I'm a Gooner. I definitely see where you're coming from, but you guys aren't Spurs, you're very very astute in the market.

Look at Chelsea, they were prepared to put down 40M for Stones, which is unbelievable, you could bring in 2 quality players with that sort of dosh. As far as I can see, it's win/win for you guys.

I wasn't sure where to post this so here will have to do. I haven't been on in a long while but I've logged back on to say that you guys look in fantastic shape. Was worried about the average age of your squad list at the time of Moyes' departure and also worried that Martinez would come in and...

Get in.

I'm not saying I have a problem with Lukaku being tried out on the right hand side because as you said Liverpool are quite lightweight on the wings and that coupled with the fact that Rodgers encourages his fullbacks to push on forward meant that there could have been space to exploit forcing a...

Agreed, Lukaku is have an absolute mare. Usually so dangerous with those inside diagonal runs when he's on the right as he's shown the two times he's played there against Arsenal.

Naismith is shuttling vertically as a false 9 of sorts meaning that when he drops deep and gets onto the ball he lacks options when on the transition because he's the striker that's supposed to be ahead of the ball and because he's the one carrying it he's obviously not there. Himself along with...

Looking forward to this game, could be one of the games of the season. Both teams have been inconsistent defensively so far this season but we know both can score. Liverpool could smash you guys, Everton could smash Liverpool which is the best case scenario. Wouldn't mind a high scoring affair...
