Sophie this is one of the top arsenal shows I like how you are very balanced with opinions and listen to opinions even if you don’t agree not many shows do that 👏 top guests today aswell all very fair
my jaw dropped to the ground when I heard he was our highest paid player . i picked my jaw off the ground and just shook my head in disbelief . then i said , what galah made the deal ? 🤣🤣😂😂
Symeou is gonna big up those two second places for the next 20 years. Arteta decided that it was enough with Jesus and Nketiah HIS DECISION AND IT WAS WAY WRONG. Nketiah was a Championship striker and Jesus was never ever gonna give you 20+ goals in the league. Arteta made that call no one forced him. Symeo likes to deflect on making it all about this last window when the screw up was not getting the number 9 before. He had chances, he decided NOT to go for a striker. Havertz wasn’t signed as a 9 btw.
For those who have the privilege of attending these games....from a dedicated fan since 2006 in the US...consider yourself lucky! I am upset about where we are and have opinions of what we need to do, but would love to attend a home game.
Watching this great podcast on catchup with an absolutely brilliant panel Thank you so much Sophie as always ❤ Really felt after coming so close last season that Arteta just needed the final piece of the puzzle with an elite offensive player that would gets us over the line to secure trophies & titles! Unfortunately that hasn’t happened & I feel especially now the current players desperately needed that injection of quality to lift them & to show ambition! Arteta has change the way we are progressing the ball & it’s so slow & impotent & predictable to play against! Sadly I’m not convinced anyone will come in this January & we may have to wait until the summer & that’s a huge risk!!!
I think the fans would not have left early yesterday if we had Bukayo on the pitch ...it was very obvious to them our attackers are toothless and a bit feckless and could see the final result well before the end of the game. Watching on the screen I felt more frustrated than disappointed about our lack of cutting edge and power upfront to destabilize a solid defense ... if we had a Kudos type player despite his lack of finesse we would have easily breached Newcastle .
@@om4482 Can’t argue with this. Saka is the nucleus of what we do. Mikel also made him the focal point and rightly so. The longer we go without him the more we will suffer. 🫡
Loved the show catching up on replay Soph. Many great points raised by you, Lee, Dan & Harry but also needs a mention that the injuries, illnesses and red cards this season have had a massive affect and a big difference to last season. But thats only part of the reason, poor transfer summer window, individual player form and coaching tactics have definitely contributed to a difficult season. Sending my thoughts and prayers to all who have been affected in the California wild fires. ❤
Sophie is always a fresh of breath air in the Arsenal fans base. She’s always very objective and also make reasonable criticisms about Arsenal as a whole.
Living in the north of England I can't say I have much experience of wild fires, but I hope you guys are all safe out there Soph. The Goonerverse is just upset we're not at the heights of last season, but the facts are we're not far off on same points, given the injuries we've had, bad officiating and dip in form, I'd take that. Last point is I still believe Arteta will win us major honours, we were so close last season, I honestly don't think we're far off it. Lovely show as usual with 3 artful scholars Soph ❤
The imbalance in the squad has to be on Mikel.. did we need Calafiori when MLS was coming through for example? I also wonder if he has an aversion to “ star “ players a bit like George Graham did.. players with big egos who play off the cuff a bit..I don’t think they are for Mikel , and it’s starting to become a problem.With the Kroenkes I just think they’ve tightened the purse strings once our CL participation was established and consolidated.. I doubt they’ll provide the funds for the mini rebuild we require
@@PaulWard-xn5zg He likes younger players and less domineering personalities, no doubt! Jorginho the exception but again he’s a good soldier. We always talk about no player being bigger than the club but is Arteta starting to be?🫡
He needs to be a bit more flexible in many aspects … remember when Ferguson took a gamble on Cantona ? A maverick with a bit of a bad reputation who was the missing piece of a jigsaw .. maybe an Ivan Toney could have been that for us.. would have been good to find out
Just wanted to say Sophie how much our thoughts are with everyone affected with the horrific situation in LA 😞❤ so sad & really hoping it’s resolved asap
I have been 100% behind the club and Arteta, but honestly, if we do not sign a striker this Jan, i will give up on the season.. they neglected this for 2 years
I'd put the drive and passion being missing partly down to the fact they changed the rules for the managers on the sidelines SOLEY because Arteta was able to transmit his energy to the players. He can't do it anymore or he gets booked or sent off.
Letting Viera, Nketiah, ESR and Nelson all leave without adequately replacing them has been our downfall this season. We had depth last season and we’ve now diminished it significantly.
@@BP-bs2ny Even though none of these players were setting the world alight, agree not replacing them a mistake! Nelson had the most to contribute. ESR wasn’t the same post injuries but he’s come into his own at Fulham. Vieira for me is a bust! 🫡
Think about how many "first choice" signings we've missed out on. Vlahovic, caicedo, Sesko, Joao Felix, Mudryk, Lisandro Martinez, Raphinha. Thats not to say we haven't dodged some bullets here, but the point is Arteta has wanted better players than the ones he had and ended up having to settle for second or third choice, who's fault is that?
We haven’t been sussed out. We don’t commit players, the wingers are effectively playing as full backs and all the play goes through the full backs and it’s so repetitive. No movement nothing. The few games we play well is when you see the full backs push up and allow the wingers to move inside. Even saka said that arteta tells them to focus on defending first ffs
Since 2022, Arteta has gotten rid of 4 strikers in Auba, Laca, Balogun and Nketiah and replaced them with only Jesus. (Havertz is not a striker and was originally bought to replace Xhaka). That is terrible squad building.
Agree with all but Lee is so very right, as always. We are same age and on same page. I've been an attending fan from mid 70s. Been on a couple of marches with Lee. Top bloke. Very wise.
We tried to get plenty of forwards over the years including Sesko and Williams and got none. Yes Arteta has made some strange decisions but the ownership are not willing to put the extra in to get the big forwards we need
Pretty sure Harry called it a “lazy narrative “ when Geoff Stelling told him in the summer we needed a striker. The talkSPORT video is right there online. Arteta himself said he “knew within 10 minutes talking to Raheem “ he had to sign him. 😅 Harry is an unbearable Arteta fanboy
I think the problem stems from the board and then trickles down to the manager. Ive never seen any Arsenal manager (under these owners) have pressure to win trophies, or even feel uncomfortable. I only started going to games in 2002(im 28), so i saw the end of the david dein reign, but i refuse to believe he would allow us to accept top 4 and go numerous years without a trophy on numerous occasions. But on the other hand i dont blame thw Kroenkes for paying £65m for havertz and putting him on 280k a week, or signing numerous LB and atm our best LB is a player from our academy. I dont blame the Kroenkes for Arteta refusing to address the ST situation ( Havertz was bought as a midfielder, remember) Who was Odegaards replacement when he was injured ? Where was Sakas ? No backup, instead playing players yet again out of position. At the end of the day Arteta know hes not getting sacked, owners dont care as long as were financially stable.
Dan is one of those Arsenal fans who are so entitled and in their plots to have a bragging rights and banters with other fans forgets to acknowledged the fact that we were a banter club for so many years until about three years ago.
Harry its bare minimum for the players to give effort ! the fans are sick of the negative football over and over ! no saka is gone we don't have anything.
17:29 it’s obvious the Kroenkes pulled the plug this summer hence the net profit Arteta gets his contract and has to publicly praise them it’s blatent there was no money from them this summer due to previous summer
I’m more disappointed that the players didn’t show up for a Cup semi final, caught sleeping at the back, no thrust just predictable horseshoe passing, they need to fix this by Sunday or we are out of the FA Cup too
Our season is dying on the vine right now...if we don't add 1 or 2 impactful forward players in this window, we are winning nothing! I don't need a $70-90 million guy, we need people who can make a difference in attack!
Why has nt Mikel insisted on buying a striker? Because he thinks he has the players that can score goals and spread the goal scored in a season amongst the team. He’s said that a few times.
Ødegaard without Saka is struggling. System needs to change. Cant be trying the same tactics which are right side dominant where Saka and Ødegaard have excelled. Tactics are so bad this season. The coaches have 1 trick and it’s not working.
@@kmarlon9725 Agree. I’d like to have a wow moment where I see Mikel do something so game-changing that we overcome adversity and turn these draws into wins!🫡
Hi Sophie hope all is good with you, I thought Harry and to a lesser extent Lee were spot,was happy to see Harry just shut down Dan with honest facts from the last few seasons
@@HighburySquad I also love the discussions, I have been an Arsenal supporter since Liam Brady was doing his thing, but I think some people want everything now and everything is about the finish line and not the journey
I think when people walk out are voting with their absence. I'm here in Cali and I had season tickets to a local hockey team. They lost 20 out of 23 games to end the season. I did not renew my tickets the following year. If your paying for entertainment, you want to enjoy it and not having to leave with a sour feeling.
I think that is a dreadful self entitled attitude. It goes beyond entertainment to support a side. Walking out is so so poor when there is still time left in a two legged tie. You can be critical and not withhold support while the team are on the pitch. Arsenal are not exactly in the dreadful situation that many other clubs are in. Sooner have people voicing their concerns either vie podcasts etc or if they want to write comments, blogs. Be constructive walking out like that with so much time on the clock that's dreadfully poor support. Basically just want to be there for the glory.
@barrybyrne6478 They paid for the tickets and therefore can leave whenever they want to. These tickets are expensive and walking out is their protest of what they perceive is a crap product. I don't think they are leaving because of one result too!. I think it is a little arrogant of you to suggest to a paying customer what they should do with their purchase.
I didnt think there was a problem Sophie. You and Harry were giving the Summer transfer window 7s and 8s. Now you are saying we are desperate for a striker. You cant or wont see what is right in front of your face.
@ Absolutely, great guests, definitely can’t pass up the chance. All power to you, building a wonderful show. I love the format, at least You can get your opinion aired unlike some other shows. Catch you next time, stay safe.
Do you know in 6 years, Arteta signed the new GK more than our forwards. 4 new GK under Arteta and 3 new forwards in 6 years. (including old and nearly retired Willian). That is crazy. No wonder we have no forwards upfront as an option. So, we have to play our midfielders as the forwards such as Havert. While he signed new 14 midfielders and 12 new defenders. (including contract extension, the players who supposed to remove but yet he insists them to stay at Arsenal and he not even play them all season). What's wrong with him???? Just like he never plays Sterling right now? What do you sign him for?????? Remember he didn't want to sell Nketiah and AMN but he almost not playing them at all and AMN end up went out for free. Cedric and Elneny also not play at all during their contract extension by him. What the heck???? Hire or sign and hold the players that you want to play them. Not just for warming the bench. What a waste. So it means our team are not balance in all position. We don't have enough forwards. And he also continues and increase wages contract for ESR and Nelson but never play them too later. Why he still keeps the players that he doesn't want to play???? I don't understand him at all. Our ratio from GK-DEF-MID-FWD is 2:6:7:2
At the end of the day we're 6 points off top, 3rd in champions league, semi of 1 cup. Where were we 5 years ago. Not saying it's not frustrating, not saying I'm not pissed off, but let's have a reality check. Yes we should have bought a striker, but bear in mind the injuries and the stupid red cards at beginning of season. Without them I guarantee we'd be top now. Fingers crossed for a striker in January, if not let's just have a bit of common sense before these loons start saying Arteta out. And as the lady said there's people losing their lives, this is football however passionate we are, there's worse things going on.
The team isn't creating striker chances, and the defence is off. Taking none striker chances is an issue. You can only give forgiveness if there is remorse and there's no remorse and fake flattery. No coin.
Those bushfires look terrible Sophie, but they're expected in Australia in January not the USA 😬 There's enough to get depressed about in the world now without expending precious emotional energy worrying about our useless shower of shite.
What Harry seems oblivious to; Fans are tired of the t3rr0r1st footy; set piece based, no counterattacking, backward and forward nonsense while freezing their butts off; you’re in a press box mate. It’s like a relationship with a gal; 2 years ago, it was beautiful and you get the warm and fizzies football; now it’s painful, plodding and lets you down & you can’t find away back to the love you give up.
It's all relevant because we have yet to win anything meaningful under this ownership since they became majority owners of our club in 2011... 14 years of mediocracy under this ownership.. nothing will convince me otherwise. Not saying i want Arteta to stay but i definitely want new ownership.
@@bradleycostello9077 Financially that doesn’t help us though does it? I know we attracted Auba & others without CL football but the game moves faster these days monetarily!🫡
@HighburySquad i'm just commenting on the club not pushing to get the top signings now we are in the champions league. Arteta looks broken in fairness to him he has tried to get isak, sesko, vlahovic and gyokeres with the club not playing ball
This is 100% the Kroenkes fault.... the owners thought they were being clever by signing an inexperienced manager and then try to mold him into the next wenger, which has backfired badly becuase when you look at Liverpool, they signed Slott who has experience and could possibly be the first manager to win all 4 trophies if not the league in his first season, and should any of that happens, then it will make Kroenkes project/process redundant and debunked . Arteta on the other hand thought he was ready to be a manager but he should have started elsewhere to prove himself and then we would judge... 5 years of absolute frustration caused by the owners error in judgement and arrogance borderline on neglect ... despite 800 million spent we have achieved very little, post FA cup, we need to win something this season but we're an FA Cup elimination away from more frustration and this could be Arteta last chance otherwise I can see him walking away.
I don’t like the Kroenkes but can we cut the crap? He’s been given 750 mill and been backed to buy overpriced players for huge money. Even this summer he spent 75 on two players deemed not good enough or needed
They had no problem paying 105 for rice or 65 for unwanted Kai Havertz ffs. Let’s just cut the crap. Even white at 50 was well over priced and they bought him. He’s been allowed to buy two goalies for 30 million each ffs!!!
The football has also been awful and we should still be top even with the current squad. He’s regressing. The only year that was enjoyable under arteta was the 22/23 season
Arteta wanted Havertz to replace Xhaka and Jesus to lead the line, with Trossard as false 9. Thats all poor decisions! Poor! And he could have asked for Oshimen and Toney, andany others but he clearly had it in his head to play false 9s woth Kai, Jesus, Trossard. That is him! his fault! his decisions! Plus the style that was spoken abt, its appaling!!
The fall of Arsenal, the fall of London , the fall of Mikel needs to be studied. Northern clubs ruthless. Winners. Arsenal it’s a jolly up let’s be real . If you can get a media gig great. We don’t want trophies . America owners who like the paycheques and don’t belong in the British game . Elon musk want to buy Liverpool. The south is in major trouble
Arteta Out. Never wanted him from day one. Nearly 800m in and 5 years in the job and one poxy trophy to show for it. Plus the football is like prime Stoke. Get him out. He should never of been given the job in the 1st place.

I don't think they are leaving because of one result too!. I think it is a little arrogant of you to suggest to a paying customer what they should do with their purchase.
@@Broughie 😂
At last someone who knows what he’s talking about Harry shut that Dan Potts up sick of his narrative
I didnt think there was a problem Sophie. You and Harry were giving the Summer transfer window 7s and 8s. Now you are saying we are desperate for a striker. You cant or wont see what is right in front of your face.
Did they really say that? If they did, wow.
Need those quick starts, early goals again. Opposition has to come out, leaving spaces. Should've gone to Dubai again. COYFG

Do you know in 6 years, Arteta signed the new GK more than our forwards. 4 new GK under Arteta and 3 new forwards in 6 years. (including old and nearly retired Willian). That is crazy. No wonder we have no forwards upfront as an option. So, we have to play our midfielders as the forwards such as Havert. While he signed new 14 midfielders and 12 new defenders. (including contract extension, the players who supposed to remove but yet he insists them to stay at Arsenal and he not even play them all season). What's wrong with him???? Just like he never plays Sterling right now? What do you sign him for?????? Remember he didn't want to sell Nketiah and AMN but he almost not playing them at all and AMN end up went out for free. Cedric and Elneny also not play at all during their contract extension by him. What the heck???? Hire or sign and hold the players that you want to play them. Not just for warming the bench. What a waste. So it means our team are not balance in all position. We don't have enough forwards. And he also continues and increase wages contract for ESR and Nelson but never play them too later. Why he still keeps the players that he doesn't want to play???? I don't understand him at all. Our ratio from GK-DEF-MID-FWD is 2:6:7:2
49:56 Here here Harry... How can you leave with 15 mins to go, that's weak. Give the allocation back to Ashburton Army!
@@blazejon Fans losing faith! Could be one offs vs regular fans. 🫡
At the end of the day we're 6 points off top, 3rd in champions league, semi of 1 cup. Where were we 5 years ago.
Not saying it's not frustrating, not saying I'm not pissed off, but let's have a reality check.
Yes we should have bought a striker, but bear in mind the injuries and the stupid red cards at beginning of season. Without them I guarantee we'd be top now. Fingers crossed for a striker in January, if not let's just have a bit of common sense before these loons start saying Arteta out.
And as the lady said there's people losing their lives, this is football however passionate we are, there's worse things going on.
Hi Soph, hope u well, someone please tell DP we only lost 3 games
And drawn how many? What about the performances?
The team isn't creating striker chances, and the defence is off. Taking none striker chances is an issue.
You can only give forgiveness if there is remorse and there's no remorse and fake flattery. No coin.
@@dempsek Looooool! No coin😂🫡
I cant get a ticket . Silver member since beginnng
Would of loved to hear from Kev rip ❤
@@RichardStamp-s4e I think about this every single day🫡❤️🩹
Those bushfires look terrible Sophie, but they're expected in Australia in January not the USA 😬
There's enough to get depressed about in the world now without expending precious emotional energy worrying about our useless shower of shite.
@@SirAntoniousBlock It’s like a disaster movie. Heartbreaking ❤️🩹🙏
I’m with Super Kev, no coin for Numan….yet. We win the CL then Numan wins a coin!
I'd prefer one in this lifetime.
@@maskedgunner8731 Hilarious!!!😂🫡

What Harry seems oblivious to; Fans are tired of the t3rr0r1st footy; set piece based, no counterattacking, backward and forward nonsense while freezing their butts off; you’re in a press box mate.
It’s like a relationship with a gal; 2 years ago, it was beautiful and you get the warm and fizzies football; now it’s painful, plodding and lets you down & you can’t find away back to the love you give up.
It's all relevant because we have yet to win anything meaningful under this ownership since they became majority owners of our club in 2011... 14 years of mediocracy under this ownership.. nothing will convince me otherwise. Not saying i want Arteta to stay but i definitely want new ownership.
Need to get out of the top four again maybe we will buy players like isak when they're available instead
@@bradleycostello9077 Financially that doesn’t help us though does it? I know we attracted Auba & others without CL football but the game moves faster these days monetarily!🫡
@HighburySquad i'm just commenting on the club not pushing to get the top signings now we are in the champions league. Arteta looks broken in fairness to him he has tried to get isak, sesko, vlahovic and gyokeres with the club not playing ball
@@bradleycostello9077Something is definitely off🫡
Soph, stop posting comments from "Artetas Muse" the guy is totally disrespectful!
@@chrisdehaas97 who dat?🫡
This is 100% the Kroenkes fault.... the owners thought they were being clever by signing an inexperienced manager and then try to mold him into the next wenger, which has backfired badly becuase when you look at Liverpool, they signed Slott who has experience and could possibly be the first manager to win all 4 trophies if not the league in his first season, and should any of that happens, then it will make Kroenkes project/process redundant and debunked . Arteta on the other hand thought he was ready to be a manager but he should have started elsewhere to prove himself and then we would judge... 5 years of absolute frustration caused by the owners error in judgement and arrogance borderline on neglect ... despite 800 million spent we have achieved very little, post FA cup, we need to win something this season but we're an FA Cup elimination away from more frustration and this could be Arteta last chance otherwise I can see him walking away.
No disrespect but Harry works for the club. I can’t take anything he says seriously.
Vote Numan 🪙
@@MrTkeddo 😎🫡
North London Forever is so cringe.
@@GAbe-oy5wn I’ve been slammed for saying this!🫡
Replace Arteta with his assistant manager, he can’t win Arsenal a major trophy or anything this season.
I don’t like the Kroenkes but can we cut the crap? He’s been given 750 mill and been backed to buy overpriced players for huge money. Even this summer he spent 75 on two players deemed not good enough or needed
They had no problem paying 105 for rice or 65 for unwanted Kai Havertz ffs. Let’s just cut the crap. Even white at 50 was well over priced and they bought him. He’s been allowed to buy two goalies for 30 million each ffs!!!
The football has also been awful and we should still be top even with the current squad. He’s regressing. The only year that was enjoyable under arteta was the 22/23 season
@@carlito24uk Agree with this.
@@SirAntoniousBlock common ground for once lol
@@carlito24uk It's a motherhood statement lol.
Harry is so deluded
@@MrDmarkv6 Thought there was only one Deluded Gooner!
Arteta wanted Havertz to replace Xhaka and Jesus to lead the line, with Trossard as false 9. Thats all poor decisions! Poor! And he could have asked for Oshimen and Toney, andany others but he clearly had it in his head to play false 9s woth Kai, Jesus, Trossard. That is him! his fault! his decisions! Plus the style that was spoken abt, its appaling!!
The fall of Arsenal, the fall of London , the fall of Mikel needs to be studied.
Northern clubs ruthless. Winners. Arsenal it’s a jolly up let’s be real .
If you can get a media gig great. We don’t want trophies . America owners who like the paycheques and don’t belong in the British game .
Elon musk want to buy Liverpool. The south is in major trouble
Arteta Out. Never wanted him from day one. Nearly 800m in and 5 years in the job and one poxy trophy to show for it.
Plus the football is like prime Stoke. Get him out. He should never of been given the job in the 1st place.
