If you mean Brentford, we were poo poo, but they're going to bully plenty of other "better" teams this season as you might well find out in a couple of weeks, I assume you've forgotten how your last trip there went

It was just a joke because he had made a post about how you don’t have to beat the good teams to get the top 4. You’re very serious Ninpo.

£5m meaning newcastle turned a slight profit too i think. good deal for everyone and i hope he can increase his wages a good amount

We've signed Luke Cundle on loan from Wolves, which is just bizarre to me because our manager has been whinging about not having money to fix the holes in the squad for weeks and this lad seems to play the one position we actually have strength and depth. He's going to be sat on the bench unless he can displace the club captain and a club legend. Or play wingback.

As for United, I guess we’ll have to see whether spending 200m on Casemiro, Martinez, and Antony was a good idea, but it doesn’t seem wise to me, and I have to think that this weird transfer pattern they have will catch up to United in a couple years.

Man U have spent the last decade spending lots of money on poo poo players. But this time....its different

We need a winger to rotate with Saka, and a defensive midfielder/CM who can play at the base of midfield when Partey is unavailable.

no, sambi and elneny are the backups for that role. That's why they gave ElNeny a new deal

if Arsenal don't get another winger to rotate with Saka it is pretty much throwing the season away

Elneny is injured now so they probably need a midfielder anyway

Aren’t ESR, Vieira, and Zinchenko all capable of rotating in that position?

We've signed on loan the brilliantly named Armstrong Oko-Flex who is a striker we will probably force to play wing back and then send back in January having barely kicked a ball.

club needs to have two players for each position. ESR is an option at 8 or LW, Vieira is mostly an unknown but seems like an 8. Zinchenko is being used primarily at left back.

Signing an actual right winger will be needed. One we trust to play instead of Saka (i.e not Pepe). No idea who that is gonna be though lol, except Neto

I don't see us signing anyone. We need a winger ready to start next week's Europa League game, but those sorts of players are probably outside our price range. Throw in the hesitation to commit what is left of our transfer funds at a wide player when a DM may be sorely needed, and I can see the club being torn between two priorities with only 48 hours to go, without enough money to make a good signing for either one, so we say gently caress it and try to make do with the squad we have.

idk, I think a winger is sorely needed. Club can't really expect Saka to play 10 games a month. It's not a nice to have it's a necessity
