We have quite a good bunch of players below 25 including Pépé.

Martinelli, Nketiah, Pépé, Saka, Torreira, Guendouzi, Tierney, Holding, Bellerin, Nelson, Willock, Smith-Rowe... plus Saliba next season. The next couple of seasons could be exciting.

Ceballos too - wonder if he is part of Arteta's plan next season. And AMN - but he hasn't impressed lately.

A good crop of young players for sure. AMN hasn't played lately, so he's had no chance to impress. Can't help thinking he'd do a decent job instead of Bellerin though, who doesn't look to be properly over his injury yet.

Of the lot, I think Bellerin is going downhill

Man City v Arsenal in the premier league will take place next Wednesday. Premier League have hastily slotted in this game which was postponed because of the League Cup Final.
Not much consideration for the travelling Arsenal fans. Arsenal have offered to subsidise away travel

The wheels coming of the Liverpool season. They look tired and lack the dynamism of earlier in the season.

Yep just feels like we have a few years in the wilderness now.

I believe a much more motivated AMN will do a much better job than Bellerin

I have my doubts AMN has much of future at the club. If Sokratis is filling in at rb and AMN isn’t making squads, where does that leave him??

We are now reaping what has been sown for the last 5 years or more. If we don't get CL, and let's face it we're unlikely to, then getting £100 - £120m in for Aubameyang and Lacazette is a no brainer, especially given that we have Eddie, Martinelli and Balogun coming through. Get Saka signed up and try to get another centre half and centre mid in.

Basically rip it up and start again, as the song goes.

The thing is if Saka doesn’t sign a new contract he’ll presumably be sold next summer as well. For me that will tell us everything about where the club is going under Kroenke. Downhill in a virtually vertical direction.

Is anyone still glad Red & White didn’t take us over rather than KSE? I accept we don’t know whether Usmanov would have been a good owner. But we sure as hell know what Stan is like as an owner and I’m struggling to see how Usmanov could have been any worse.

They're going to win the PL by a dozen or more points Gunfire. I wish Arsenal's wheels were coming off like that.

And not forgetting Cédric Soares - another in a lengthening list of players who join us but don’t play.

That signing looks totally bizarre. He divided opinion among saints fans and was signed on loan for 6 months for a large fee for a loan even though he was injured until late March ! I mean ffs

It looks entirely done By Edu as a favour to his own agent Kia Joorbachin who also has Soares as a client apparently. How much better an option is that guy instead of Niles or Sokratis on the basis it was obvious we are finishing mid table regardless.

Tottenham are out. Drew 1-1 but Norwich beat them in the penalty shootout.

Eric Dier has just run up in to the stand and had an ‘altercation’ with a spurs fan. Video on twitter

Jose doing his classic routine at Spurs. He came in saying he was the humble one, did lots of good PR with ball boys and praising people but pretty quickly that has turned in to his old tricks.
He belittles players in public
Drops players and makes them resent him rather than want to play better for him
Moans about bad luck and how he’s basically working miracles with what he’s got
Has basically said spurs season is already over
Plays dour safety first football
Says he doesn’t have the squad to compete in all the games he has to play etc etc

Every spurs fan I know has already turned against him

Arsenal fans won’t be able to use their 7 home cup game credits this season. We’ve only played 5 cup games at home and have no chance of any more. It means the club are having to give a rebate to season ticket holders for the 2 games. Seen some estimate this is about £4.5m.....or about 3 months of Özil’s wage to put it another way.

Interesting.

I wonder how it will work if the fixture list is suspended, cancelled or all matches are played behind closed doors?

Torreira has a broken ankle. That's it for his season.

Emery was flop but at least he wasn't toxic. So on the whole I'd say we dodged a bullet ... which subsequently found its way into the nether regions of our neighbours .
