Is this Sarcasm?

I think Arsenal are still primed for the title until something crazy happens in terms of squad injuries (which is what no one wants).

Jorginho is your quality cover for the #6 role plus his passing game and Spatial Awareness in the 1st and 2nd phase of buildup plays could take Arsenal's possession-heavy approach a notch higher.

I think Arteta knows what he's doing but yeah, it's a risk.

Long term, in the summer, I think you guys got eyes on Declan Rice or could go back in for Caicedo (also in the summer).

Jorginho is a deep-lying playmaker. I don't doubt his technical ability but his physicality and defensive awareness is what worries me. God forbid Partey is unavailable for an important match, relying on Jorginho as a lone DM is suicidal for the team. Well, I'll just watch as events unfold.
On a bright side, Arteta's signings (White, Ramsdale..) have always been controversial and questionable but they always end up proving the fans wrong. Let's hope Jorginho is one of them. There were rumours Arteta wanted him when he (Arteta) was still at City but Jorginho joined Chelsea.

Lol... people who get nausea from a mathematical equation can still justified that. Imagine a self-aclaimed widely traveled man writing trash everyday on a public forum.
Mahrez, Sala, Saka, Robben... How often do you see these guys put in crosses from the by-line when playing? But because hate has blinded you, you just have to use an unfounded theory to pull down Chukwueze.


It's not amazing to see what deep seated dislike and prejudice can do to the mind. It makes it bitter and rancourous.

I did not mention Chukwueze is any way shape or form.

But the topic was that all players should be able to use thier so called weaker right foot in reference to left footed footballers.

Do you know that Mahrez, Foden, Saka, Raheem, can dribble but you hardly see them doing unnecessary dribbles. It's all about end product.

And when the needs comes to crosscor shoot with thier weaker foot they do .

Of course, I did not say all!

Then which ones are you taking about those playing in the NPFL.

What I am saying in today's football all quality forward players and most midfield players will have both feet proficiency.

I explained at age 13 in most top premier League Academies it's already an expectation.

Jorginho's DLP profile offers Arteta a unique option in the #6 role. Truly, Physicality is the one big trait Jorginho doesn't have compared to Arsenal's First Choice in Thomas Partey but his Midfield conducting abilities in the 1st and 2nd phases of buildup plays could even help mask this lack of physical assertiveness because an Arsenal with a Jorginho in an arteta system will likely sustain possession across all phases of play for the most parts "depending" on the opposition.

You must understand, Arteta have made 3 signings in 3 areas of the team that needed some cover. CB - Kiwior, Wings - Trossard and now #6 - Jorginho. .

Arteta knows that if you gunners must be Champions by May, then quality depth for the run-in is needed.

In the summer, Arsenal will go for their true long term targets.

Trust your man, Mikel. Trust the process. πŸ˜‰

Bug kudos to Nice for not giving up as well
Both parties were loyal to each other
I expect to see Moffi repay their commitment with big performances and lots of goals

Exactly Doc Jorginho comes with a skill set that will be useful to a tactician that knows his onions. I know Tielemans is another target who should hopefully be a long term replacement for Xhaka.

Jorginho like you rightly said should help with the run in.

Well, here is another.

His name: Akinsanmiro Ebenezer of Beyond Limits FA, Remo Stars. 2004-born.


Gifted Young Central Midfielder good at receiving on the half turn and in the half spaces, good in transition plays both offensively and defensively through the middle, mature for his age in his passing and has high field Vision. Also, quite physically dominant.

Excelled for Beyond Limits FA at the Viareggio Cup held earlier this year in March and signed a Pre-contract with Inter Milan before returning to Nigeria with Remo Stars' academy side, Beyond Limits.

He also featured in the The Creative Championship, TCC, Nigeria.

Follow-up Reports say his transfer is to be officially announced in January and one of the clubs in Hammarby, Sweden also tabled an offer for Ebenezer.


Remember the Name, Akinsanmiro Ebenezer. wink



As called since December 28 last year... below is Akinsanmiro Ebenezer signing with Inter Milan. He will start off from their U19s/U21s.

My Good Man, Halis first called it on twitter. πŸ˜‰

Very Solid.

What many fail to realise is that stats such as the accuracy of short passes, crosses and long balls, the ability to create goalscoring chances, are independent of league quality, these qualities resides in the player's skills and intelligence (decision making).
