regarding losing star players for Arsenal, especially if you view what the club is doing through a Ajax/Dortmund/Porto lens, but I think the risk is overstated.
It could all go tits up for sure, but this season could be the springboard to get Arsenal in the big time and we have the cash to splash on our young shiny players. We may need to sell one of them, but we had Ozil and Auba on £350k apiece in the Europa League, why couldn’t we bump Saka, Martinelli and Jesus on £200k each in the Champions League?John Matrix AFC
But these days Arsenal do appear to be living up to our motto – Victoria Concordia Crescit – Victory Through Harmony. Gone is the infighting between Wenger Ins and Wenger Outs replaced by a fanbase united under Arteta – with the exception of Stewie of course. Yet, if you were to look at my Twitter timeline last night, you would’ve thought the man was Judas Iscariot himself. The cries for him to “get out of my club” were pathetic. The writer/blogger types particularly despise him, which I have a sneaking suspicion has something to do with Lucas’ political views .
Secondly, can Scottish football, the producer of so many legendary players and managers, ever be brought to parity with the English Leagues again? F365’ers, I welcome your replies, excluding the usual septic nonsense in the comments section of course, and am intrigued as to whether anybody will be prepared to address the genuine Celtic/Rangers ‘elephant in the room’.Watching Real Madrid – Celtic, I assume the 1st penalty was correct according to the current handball rule, so I’ll skip that one. My gripe is with the second one.
