Thoughts? Van Dijk up for player of the year over any arsenal defender is absolutely criminal! With arsenal having considerable less goals conceded and considerably more clean sheets!
It's UNIMAGINABLE, BUNKERS
100% agree mate, it just shows how anti Arsenal the English football and media world is, we are the Millwall of the Premier League.
Hey Charles, I work for Islington Council and am a manager for a service that will be very seriously impacted by any potential parade. The original date proposed would have caused us a HUGE amount of trouble. My boss first broached it on the day of the first Bayern game with "Apparently Arsenal are doing really well in the league so we need to plan for a potential parade." The trouble became apparent really quickly but I couldn't bring myself to care very much. Yes, I love my job and I do care about the service I run, but oh my god I want a parade so badly that I just don't care. I responded to the trouble by going and putting my Arsenal shirt on. Priorities man!!!
Brilliant comment hahaha
If Wojciech wants to coach in the future it would make a lot of sense to be number 2 keeper under Arteta and be a part of that system.
He can do that anywhere. Don’t forget this is Arteta’s first job, he too is still learning.
I think in Polish media he already mentioned that it's completely not his cup of tea, being a coach
Hi Charles, avid listener but first time contributor.
My question is regarding the goalkeeper situation at Arsenal in light of the links to Wojciech Szczesny’s possible return to the Emirates, I read a tabloid article this morning and saw additional links to Brightons Jason Steel and Diant Raman of Ajax.
I would like to put a name up for a back up keeper that as far as I am aware, no one has mentioned and that is Thomas Kaminski from Luton.
From what I have seen of him he is absolute quality and has been a stand out performer in an otherwise average side and for mine, a big reason Luton are still in with a shout of staying in the PL.
If they do eventually get relegated this season surely a number two spot at Arsenal would hold more appeal than playing in the championship.
He is 31, so a great age for a keeper and as it looks like he will be the first choice keeper for Belgium at the Euros due to the injury to Thibaut Courtois, this will have no immediate impact his international aspirations.
What do you think?
I only want players who are desperate to play for Arsenal at the club. It sounds like Zubimendi doesn't want to leave. If he's home sick we won't get the best out of him. I think we should explore other CM options. Great content as always Charles! Best, Rob
Arsenal did win the Community Charity Shield this year and that's a trophy. Even if it does not win any other trophy, the joy that this team brought to the fans has been incredible this year. It is so much more fun to watch the Gunners play these days vs days from the end of Invincible era to start of 2022/23 season. COYG, onward and upward!
I’d love Szczesny to come back!
Extra time : Charles why is nobody talking about how desperately we need a backup to Saliba ? I believe he’s played every minute in the Prem and CL. Do you think we should sign a youngster or a more experienced CB to push Saliba ? Thank you- CM
Ben White ,timber can play cb
All of our fullback bar Zinny is a CB. It’s a fullback we need to bring in
Tomi plays left CB for his country, so can also fill in
Tomi, White, Rice, Timber, Kiwor can all deputize at CB. More important is the Partey replacement, and a winger.
Saka replacement is more important
Agree, Szczesny is a perfect #2. However, I do wish Rambo stays 1 more season and takes the time to work on his foot work and full game concentration/focus. AND win his spot back!
It must be quite satisfying to engage in some blue sky thinking regarding Sxczesny only to later find out the club is actually considering him. Good work Charles.
The moment of genius was Charles realising he could disguise himself as Edu's brain
Hey Charles, to me the keeper question is about profile primarily. I agree that we need an older keeper that would be happy to sit on the bench but is still a good quality (not a runnarson v2) However we need that keeper to be able to play as high as Raya and be comfortable on the ball. I haven’t watched much of Wojtek since he left, but not sure he could do that role.
I wonder if there are any ball playing GK’s in there mid-30’s at all?
Is Keylor Navas any good with his feet ?
I also think we should take a look at Marcin Bulka at Nice for GK. He's homegrown too
Charles credit to one of your viewers who was the first one to bring up the shez possibility a few weeks ago
They should add a maximum number of first team Premier League caps, maybe 50?, to the PFA Young Player Award
#extra time Partey next to say imagine if he can keep fit next season and what he offers and brought to the team after villa game, i also think Artat brought him late because He was available for long periods weeks before the villa game , We could be ahead of City.😢 the money coming for selling him won’t be worth it
Does Szczesny make sense as the signing for Arsenal's second choice goalkeeper?
Shouldn't Arsenal be prioritising signing a goalkeeper that can play with their feet so the goalkeeper can fit the style of play?
Don't want to have a Matt Turner situation again.
sczesny could play with his feet before it was popular mate
HIGH WATTAGE ⚡⚡⚡
HIGHNESS WATTAGE 🔙🔛🔝
Super wattage
How about giving Karl Hein a chance?
If Szczesny is available we should go for him. He is still playing at a very high level and we know we would get an experienced reliable keeper. If we have an inexperienced goalkeeper who has to step in at any stage next season, we are taking a big risk. As we see in the run in, a single point even goal difference matters. An experienced number 2 keeper is vital and Szczesny fits the bill.
Hi Charles - great stuff as always. The more I watch Arteta and his team, the more I think we are missing the point talking about "signing a 5 or 8" or "signing a 9 or 10". Would you agree that Arteta thinks much more about skillset and areas of the pitch that a player can cover? That is why the Guimaraes rumours are so interesting. He is one of those guys that isn't necessarily a 6 or an 8, but just a very good all-round midfielder, like Rice. If Partey and Jorginho are both staying, that would give Arteta fantastic options in midfield. Partey could be rested, and you could go Rice at 6 with Guimaraes at 8 or Rice could be rested, and you could go Partey/Jorginho at 6 and Guimaraes at 8. And you could certainly try that Guimaraes/Rice/Odegaard midfield with Bruno deeper in the central role. I just think if you bought a Zubimendi type, you'd have 3 guys for one position (if Partey stays) and no real cover for Odegaard or Rice in the 8 role.
Hi Carles.
Regarding Premier league awards ..I would like to see a breakthrough player award possibly youth to first team or a players first stint in the Premier league.
As for the youth player once awarded automatically puts player into main category .
Yes.still a great keeper and still has mad love for the Arse!! Get I'm in!
Hi Charles, with things like financial fair play, PSR and potential independent regulator, do you think that we would be able to spend 200 million again? If not, what young players from the academy do you think will get more game time at Arsenal to help the squad?
Love from Malaysia
#extratime
Hey Charles and Mr. Benginho
Plan your perfect summer for arsenal. It has to be realistic. I want to see:
- who would you sell (give me a fee)
- who would you let go
- who would you send out on loan
- who would you buy
- who would receive a new contract
like I said, it has to be realistic.
Have a nice weekend & greetings from switzerland
UTA
To be honest Charles, I'd take Szczesny as a number 2, he knows the club well, the club knows him well and lastly, the fans know him well. He's an ideal fit in my opinion.
Extra time: How do you think Wenger would have fared with this current arsenal team, do you think he’d be achieving more or less than arteta? I have a feeling that the current team would not suit his later style, however does have a few similarities to the teams of the early 2000s and late 90s, with big, physical players as well as technical ones.
Should change young player of the year to a "rookie of the year" type concept. i.e. first time playing PL football
Extra time
Hey both, love the videos so please keep it up, have you heard much noise regarding the young Stade Rennais Attacking mid Desire Doue
Personally haven’t heard much about him other than that we have loose interest among other Prem giants, have you guys got any insight on him?
Hi Charles, hope all is well!
Seeing the different opinions of people is interesting regarding the summer transfer window. I personally believe that any player who comes in needs to be able to add something to the squad. We could still do with some different player profiles in this squad to help propel us even further and to be even more unpredictable. I also believe that we will need a mixture of top quality young blood (the likes of Eze/Olise/Musiala) and experienced top quality players (Kimmich/Gyokeres/Watkins/Isak/FDJ). Winning mentality should he the biggest key of most, if not all incomings. What do you think?
Keep up the good work 👍
Dennis
Extra time - Hi Charles, I hope all is well. It seems like Arteta has found his “closers” a core group of players that are relied upon to see out the good work done from the first half of the season. I think the summer will be about keeping players such as Jesus, trossard and another pacy attacking option on the bench as well as a new defensive profile, that could potentially allow us to push a centre half into the midfield and allow Rice to then push on into the 8. I am not convinced with Arteta being down with the Havertz left 8 project and it seems that, that side of the pitch is designed to evolve on a manner where people move out spaces and into new spaces. I think a new 6 will the ideal signing and bedding a new 6 in rotating with J20 would be a good plan and using J20, and Partey to see out the run in I would like Bruno from Newcastle as the 6 I like how ball playing ability, vertical passing and nastiness.
Young player of the year should have an appearance limit of say maybe a season or 2 so say 50 appearances and what about okwonkwo for 2nd keeper? Not sure how he's got on with Wrexham or will he just be loaned/sold?
It will Wojciech huge plus
Inside Arsenal - great show as always Charles. I know Palhinha at Fulham is getting a little "old" in comparison to our young squad, but I think he would be a great fit for us as to bolster our DM in event Partey is injured or gone. Or do you think we should be looking for a player with more miles in front than behind? In any case here is hoping he has a performance for the ages on Saturday! COYG!
Hi Charles, if Benjamin Sesko is not an option for a new forward, what would you think if we go for Vitor Roque seeing that he is not happy at barca, as an option?
They should make it similar to US sports: Rookie of the Year! Sure they will have to put some prerequisites around it, especially if they're coming from a different country/league.
Hi Charles, love the content.
Arteta mentioned earlier in the season that he was tempted to sub the keepers. Had he done that and neither concede, are both keepers credited with the clean sheet?
Also St Vincent beat Dominica at the weekend. They don't win many, so big result for them. Up the Vincy Heat.
Hi Charles, do you anticipate any of the upcoming crop of youth players getting chances in the upcoming season with all the news about contract negotiations with those players?
Massive fan of your work from downtown Chicago!
What about David de Gea? Seems wild no one has picked him up and now that he has spent an entire season or more not playing he would be eager to join a top club even as a back up.
His wage demands could potentially be a stumbling block, plus I think he would want to be the first choice.
I think Szczesny would suit a number 2 spot. He still has a fondness for the club and could move into a coaching role later on. I like both, but the later option is my preferred choice
ET: With the squad changing this summer with ins and outs, what do you see our cup squad looking like in the earlier legs? which players in the first team will get minutes and what youngsters will get an opportunity next season? thanks, Chris
I dig it - a bit like when Lukic came back.
Extra time. Any news on a new contact for Amario Cozier-Duberry ? Cheers
Hi Charles,
Nice contents as always...
What is the Arsenal position of revisiting Mykhalo Mudryk
My name is Jhayson from Nigeria.
Jorgi signing a new 2 year deal was great news
I wish for a Fulham win or even a draw but in the first leg man city beat Fulham 5-1 😢
It doesn’t look good, but we need to stay at it till the end
EXTRA TIME
Charles, where do you see Jakub Kiwior next season? With Timber being fully fit, looks like Kiwior will be far away in the LB pecking order. Saliba and Gabriel do not rotate often. Where do you see Kiwior getting minutes next season?
Hi Charles,
If I had the choice of a young talented marquee signing who is a potential game changer it would be Jamal Musiala, he is outstanding. he has the ability to take 2/3 players out of the game with his blistering pace and technical ability.
No doubt he is one of the most exciting attacking players currently out there but at just 21 years old it is frightening the heights he could reach.
No idea on he’s value but I would imagine him to be pricey. Would we be able to lure a player like that from a huge European club like Bayern?
What’s your thoughts?
Maybe instead of YPOTY, they should have most impactful newcomer. While making the criteria U23
I hope Szcezesny comes back!
What about Alex Palmer from West Brom, he is very commanding in the box, very strong physically which would make him a good goal keeper for Arsenal as a back up!
People aren't very hopeful of Spurs doing us a favour but there's definitely a few things that could go in our favour which wouldn't them too.
Liverpool playing Villa, if villa lose And Spurs beat Burnley top 4 is still very much a possibility.
Villa also playing a very on form Palace team away with 4 wins and a draw in their last 5
Spurs have Burnley and sheffield which you would imagine would be wins meaning the city game could be integral towards getting ucl football.
Also recent form with Spurs is a bad look for Ange who I can't imagine will be very willing to roll over to city considering his own integrity and the integrity of the sport. City have also never scored at the lane.
I'm not saying they will beat city but I don't think it's a clear cut as everyone seems to think.
COYG
Extra Time: Hey Charles, we love the show and thank you for the work as it's been a part of our daily routine. Our little one (4 years old) even calls you Uncle Charles when she sees you on the screen. We're curious what you think about Arsenal's upcoming changes to the ticketing policy for the family section. What do you think about the changes? Do you think it'll negatively impact the amount of Junior Gunners getting to see matches? Thanks. - Josh & Kalie (and Valencia)
Hi Charles, don't you think that bringing back Fabiański would make more sense? I heard rumors that ex-Arsenal polish goalie can join us, and even though Szczęsny is a match, Fabiański suits me more. Already living in London (with his family I guess), year left of his contract, probably not the first choice especially with a new coach coming to WHU, acceptable salary expectations I believe and many other reasons that make me think he is actually being a better option. What do you think?
ET:: HI CHARLES ..Big Ups to you.. On the potential of signing a 2nd Goalkeeper. I THINK EXPERIENCE COMES FIRST THOUGH..BUT I FEEL MURIC (BURNLEY) WOULD BE A GOOD FIT FOR US.
MUCH LOVE FROM COLCHESTER.
Question: Any news on Amario Cozier-Duberry contract situation and will Okonkwo be sold to Wrexham?
I think okwonko contract is up at the end of the season? I might be wrong there but that’s what I thought
@@singerpour6946both their contracts is up
@@singerpour6946 I think you are right 😞
Hi Charles, your book, “Revolution” is an excellent depiction of the transformation of Arsenal under Mikel Arteta. What will you be adding to your paperback version that is coming out in 2 months’ time? Many thanks.
Rookie of the year. Must be your first season to play in the EPL & must be first professional contract!
Extra time:
Why do you think sczezny is a good fit when he doesn't play with his feet all that well. Or at least to level arteta would want to ensure we can play the same way?
Hi Charles, love Szczesny. Not sure I agree he's the "perfect" fit. Is he good enough on his feet? Even as a back up?
Also if we do finish 2nd this year which title run was the biggest missed opportunity?
I still feel last year was as we had that gap, this year we have been pretty perfect.
- Ollie
Bad management of the GK situation imho. Arteta's failure to rotate the GK position has led to what Charles describes as a crisis. It seems pointless to bring in an old has been for the No2 position. What happens if Raya has to go off due to an injury and we are left with a second rate keeper as a replacement. We should have 2 top class keepers and Arteta should just get his act together and rotate the position.
5:00 I beleive I first heard about his availability in a question asked by one of your followers (sorry I don't remember his name). Given that we are paying Ramsdale, Cedric, Tomi, Eddie, Nelson, veira etc all more than 100k pw why would we not pay that for a 2nd keeper with decades experience in champions league
What about marco reus? A veteran like him would be good depth addition, and would he be willing to come to arsenal and play rotationally with saka, martinelly, leo?
Extra Time: Charles do you believe we over-sensationalise English team errors; can you imagine Raya, Onana or others making that mistake to gift Real Madrid a spot in the final? It’s almost like Neuer didn't even make a mistake online. -Joel
Extra Time:
Do you think any of our promising youngsters will break into the squad next year?
My only worry about our current team is that we don't rotate very much in midweek / Cup games and it feels unlikely we'll see an academy product get a good chance. It was so nice to see the Saka and Smith Rowe breakouts a couple years ago.
EXTRA TIME
Hi james,
If you had to pick would you prefer signing 2 very expensive proven players like osihmen and neco Williams or 3 cheaper players like sesko(43 mil release clause) Zubamendi(60m) and pedro Neto which I believe would be about sixty aswell
Isn't Ramsdale on more that 100 000 a week? Wouldn't getting Ramsdale off the books for 50 million and bringing in Szczesny for much cheaper be a better option?
Noone is gonna pay 50 for ramsdale
@@ryanbutler4221 England international. 25 years old. Onana 44 million. Don't really need to sell. He'd be a starter and benefit to any other team. Newcastle, maybe?
@@ryanbutler4221easy 50mil or more. Benefit of the English tax and what not.
We made Liverpool cough out over 40mil for an injury struck Oxlade ten years ago.
Arsenal's biggest sellable asset at the end of season is Martinelli. I fear he might have reached his ceiling considering Arteta was willing to spend big Money for Mudryk just about 2 years ago. Leroy Sane will be an upgrade for sure.
Hey Charles! I wouldn't begrudge Kane a trophy so long as its the Euro or World Cup trophy, as that would at least mean that England won something. Although I can't see them doing it with Southgate as the manager.
Jorgino stays. A good move for Arsenal Charles? Personally I love it
Extra Time:
Thoughts on playing Jesus in the left 8? He likes to get back and tackle, can keep the ball and be creative and he's never in the box when balls go in anyway. Thankyou
Extra time: Charles and James are there any players you wish or believe would be great at Arsenal that currently aren’t linked? Beyond Mbappe. Mine Marcus Thuram from Inter would be great.
Extra time:- Do you think it would be more beneficial for Arsenal to sign a midfielder with good experience at the top level (like Kimich or Frankie De Jong) as opposed to another player with potential? I haven’t seen much of Zubamendi but I’m assuming he’s not yet that calibre of player? We are already pushing City and knocking on the door for major honours, so surely you want/need experience to make that jump to get you over the line. Also if we are bringing in a starter to replace Partey/Jorginho, surely it makes sense to bring in a player ready to win now?
Harry Kane - it happened again, it happened again....
With regards to forwards why isn't there any noise about Raphinha. We were interested 8n him 2 years ago and wh8lst he went to Barca he might be one who we can tempt with a loan fee or cheeky bid
Hey Charles,
How do you think not winning the league might impact the team for next season? Any players you see might crumble under disappointed and might be looking to move on?
We better find a young keeper and teach how we want to play. Forget old Poland keeper 🎉
Look, if Zubimendi isn't keen to join the club, forget it. We should sign players who WANT to play for Arsenal. At least, according to Arteta, there are plentiful...
If Wojciech’s wages are £100,000 after tax, that can’t be too far off Ramsdale (especially since his renewal). Google suggests Ramsdale’s on £120k. And we should be getting in excess of £30M for Ramsdale which is effectively a refund of what we paid (inflation included). So, in effect, you’re getting a refund of Ramsdale’s fee whilst paying out the same wages Ramsdale’s currently on. No brainer.
Hi Charles,
Szczesny does seem like the romantic option, but serious question, does he have the character we would be looking for as a role model senior player? I remember the smoking in the shower incident which I think is why Wenger ended up being keen to move him on. Arteta worked so hard to purge our team of this with Auba & Laca, is there a risk that he’d be inviting someone into the team that doesn’t fit our ethos? Obviously there is no question of skill, or love of the club but I’m not certain he’s the right fit for us right now, what do you think?
-Tim
YPOTY should only be for 1st year in PL playing 20 or more league games
How would we afford a #2 GK on £100kpw NET of tax? I'd imagine the budget would be more like £50k pw max for that role...
I would like arsenal to sign defense mid leimer of bayern
Is Szczeny good? Wow how time changes things, he was shipped out for smoking but was not great. I’ve never seen him use he’s feet!
Charles, surely the kids can have the day off school for the parade lol
First of all, I do not see why Szcezny will leave Juve as a first option to come to Arsenal for a Number 2 position…..especially when I honestly don’t think for sure that Raya is better than him.
Always loved Wojciech and was gutted when he left. I would welcome him back with open arms. As for Kane, I actually feel sorry for him. Ever since he left the prem, he doesn't offend me anymore. Good Luck to him. I hope he wins a meaningful trophy someday.
He has not washed off the spursy curse
EXTRA TIME:
Hi Charles, James, Do you think Arteta, who rates discipline among his players so highly, would be okay bringing back Szczesny, who was kicked out of the club for, essentially, smoking in the shower at the club?
He was just a kid back then.
Good point. But that was when he was very young and I'm sure he has learnt alot since. Plus they played together for a couple of seasons didn't they (although that didn't turn out well for Ozil)
@@drken9093 and many of our players can be considered as kids rn if you say szczesny was a kid back then. Would he be a good influence to have around em 😂
Inside Extra Time: I saw a picture of our record at old trafford over the past few years, I think all the signs are pointing at an emphatic victory
Though I know United is slippery, I think it's time to avenge the 8-2, thoughts?
If there's any club that has a good chance of getting Zubimendi out of Real Sociadad, it's The Arsenal. Why do I think this? Well, we have a secret weapon called Mikel Arteta, and he has a knack of selling his project to players that he wants to bring in.
Can’t wait till carragher’s comments when we win the league and have a parade… ‘ okay you won the league, just get home, you have next season to prepare for now ‘
I think chezney is the best thing to do and he was at arsenal before that's is a no breaner
Should be rookie of the year not young player of the year!
Question for Extra time:
Afternoon guys, who do you think is the best young talent in world football right now? Let's say U21 for the sake of the argument. I personally love Zaire-Emery from PSG, I think his ceiling is so high.
Ray Parlour won 3 Premier Leagues, 4 FA Cups, 1 League Cup, 3 Chairty Shields and a Cup Winners Cup.
Kane has won nothing lol
Match day squad of 20 players. We need Replicate the City model
14 players who are rotating in the first 11.
4 players who are excellent back up (Jorginho eg)
And 2 of our best youth players
Each season city sell one of the starting 14 for big money, and replace with someone better.
Then they buy another world class to go into the 14, then one of the current 14 drops out and becomes one of the 4 excellent back ups
They sell 2 of their excellent back ups, and the 2 youth players promote to dxcellent back up (Rico and bobb)
Then they promote 2 other excellence youth players
We can do this
14: Raya Saliba Gabriel Tomi White Rice Partey Ode Saka Martineli Havertz Jesus Trossard Timber
4 excellent back ups: GK, Jorgi, Zinchenko, ESR, Vieira.
2 youth: Nwaneri and whoever
Sell a starting 14 (eg Partey) and upgrade Zubamendi eg
Buy an Isak meaning Jesus gets demoted from start 14 to excellent back up
Sell ESR NKetiah
Promote 2 youths to excellent back up
Means we'd only We in 2 or 3 players spending 200 million
Selling partey ESR Nketiah (20/30/20) raising 70+
Thats a great summer and a rebalanced squad
Question...is it illegal to offer the spurs players 1 million pounds each to beat city ?
Alegri Charles 😂
#extratime
Is Szczesny still a smoker?
I think Wojcech is the perfect second goalie. Will push Raya because he’s still on top form but will probably be happy to act as a number 2
He smokes when he wants! Bring back Chesney! Come on you Gunners!
These schezney links seem to be coming from you, poor with his feet, has an error in him, factor in his age given Raya is 27
