One thing for sure, odegaard looks absolutely top class

Ironically, given the content of the post, it came from the Arsenal forum.

Twerking for Arsenal as a Spurs fan is fucking weird mate, you're not the only one.

@Gb160 using a term from arse-mania to have a go at SC users for being Arsen*l fraternizers. Is hilariously ironic.

If Jesus gets injured they're back to relying on Nketiah for goals aren't they?

Yep, they have a number of attacking mids but none appear to be players who can also play up front. I maintain optimistic that their squad won't be strong enough to perform over the whole season.

Yep. Definitely not strong enough as it is with the pile up of fixtures.It'll be interesting to see if they bring anyone else in before the transfer window shuts.

Interpreting some of the posts in here as Gunner worship is a bit over the top. Many of them read like a sober assessment of Arsenal: they have had a bright start, look good, and no one knows but many suspect that it will not hold up under greater pressure or against tougher opponents. The addition of Jesus has brought their game up a notch by making the players around him better. He gives them a little more time and space because he is so difficult to defend. It's a question mark whether the mentality has improved enough to withstand the rigors of this year in particular as well as any of the misfortunes that are guaranteed to come along the way. And their defense, may be improved, but improved enough is a different question. It's a funny old game and this year more so than others.

Arsenal: Mikel Arteta turning Gunners into contenders - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/62703697

Brilliant.

You know what comes next don't you?

Exactly. There's a chance he's one of those players that shines in a 3-0 whooping of the basement boys but struggles against tough defenders

They have returned into a latter day Wenger side that will steam roller rubbish teams but ultimately aren't good enough to be where they want.

They'll start losing matches as soon as Arteta wins manager of the month for August ??

OK fine, I'll call them Artetasexuals if you'd rather.

The post above the one you commented on literally starts 'If this arsenal team win something'

 

[southlondonyiddo]

They are looking great. At this rate they’ll be nailed on for 5th

Something doesn’t mean the league.

Chief twerker @JCRD was comparing them to the Leicester title winning side earlier.

haha mate ive been taking lessons from VVD

I didnt compare them with Leicester, I was explaining that momentum can make up for weaknesses. Leicester had weaknesses and so do Arsenal and so do we...
