Hello everyone and welcome back to Inside Arsenal.
In today's show I discuss Gabriel Jesus following reports that Arsenal are open to selling the Brazilian forward this summer. I also give my thoughts on all the discussion over Ben White's antics against Spurs, look ahead to Saturday's game against Bournemouth and answer questions from you on various topics, including Thomas Partey's future and Arsenal's need for a new striker.

100% keep Partey even if he plays 12 games still best midfielder we have besides rice
The guy is better than Rice bro
G.Jesus is a top 3 Arsenal player interms of pure ability.We need to give him another chance to get to full fitness,a fully fit,in peak GJ is one of a kind special player that you cannot find anywhere else in world football.
I think KH is irreplaceable up top, rather than buying a backup for Saka (which we desperately need) convert Jesus into a RW and then go all out on Bruno G, a new CB and potentially a new CF in the summer.
@@Chriss4123Your comment is top-notch what you said is exactly what we should be doing a new CF a new CDM and a new CB
@@Chriss4123 have to agree,right now Kai is unstoppable,GJ always beats his man and would make a great competitor with Saka/Martenelli.
We gave jesus a chance against villa and it didn't work. Havertz has taken his spot fully. I don't think we can wait around for jesus anymore. He's going to move from injury to injury I think, and even if we ever get peak jesus, it won't be for long.
He got too many chances
Thanks for the update Charles. I really like Jesus and the role he plays in the team. His pressing, his work rate and his ability to hold onto the ball and create chances for his teammates is of value. It would be great if he scored more goals and I do believe he is capable of doing so. If he can recover from his injury then I would definitely keep him
JG offers us other good qualities than scoring goals. Please keep him.
Jesus and zinchenko were pivotal in moving the squad from where it was in 2022 to where it is now. But unfortunately thats as far as they can take this squad. Thats their level. At best, they are squad players now.
spot on were not in the same level compared to what we are now when we signed them both
Agreed. Doesn't mean we should sell them but keep as squad players. Strength in depth would be crazy compared to 2 years ago
Thanks for the 14th minute update Charles. that’s unfortunate young man was a classmate of my friend’s daughter and I’ll send a video of the applause to her to list her spirits. Manoj.
I’m in agreement with you Charles re Gabby Jesus. Injuries have no doubt been an issue, and the fact that Kai is only 6 goals off Jesus’ Arsenal career tally is damning - but when at his best there are few better attackers in world football in terms of what he brings - his ball carrying, versatility, hold up play, eye for a pass etc. A leader as well, brought straight into Mikel’s leadership group when he signed. I understand that in order to level up with each window we cannot be held back by emotion, but I can’t shake the feeling that Gabby has more to give. Unless he’s outright searching for a move, there are a good few more players that we should be looking to cash in on before we even begin to think about Gabby.
It wouldn't be the first time a Jesus had made a spectacular comeback. Gabi Jesus is still world class. He's a cut above the rest. A fit Gabriel Jesus is banging down the door to be a starter in this team. He's a winner. He's 27. He's staying at The Arsenal. I agree with you Charles, unless the medical team know his injury has left him with permanent limitations and is likely to resurface again and again - he's going nowhere. I don't believe this story. You know how it works in the media. Is it that one publication prints it - and then everyone runs with it? There's no quotes. Gabriel Jesus is a match-winner. A game-changer. He can make something out of nothing. Let's see if he can stay injury free next season - then have this conversation. Love the show Charles. Come on you Gunners! Jonny.
Your comments in Ben White Charles are spot on
i agree with comment on ESR and Viera - think they're amazing players and maybe a little undervalued. i think we need to involve them more so they're comfortable staying as squad players!?
I think as a winger he could be really useful for us but im not interested in a forward that doesnt score at least 15 prem goals a season. He is great at everything else but thay isnt enough to he a starting forward for arsenal but definitely enough quality to play a part
Thanks for the update, as always. Inside Arsenal is one of very few required watchings in my day. Regarding the match this weekend, the 3rd-to-last item chronologically is called "antepenultimate". I just really enjoy that word .
Admittedly,, both Jesus and Zinchenko were great for us in past seasons, but where the club is heading, we need next gen talent who will be available especially for the starting 11. Sell both as long as appropriate replacements are bought. Btw, we must move on Eddie and Nelson. Both have not Arteta's confidence so no point occupying the bench while we cry for options tobchange a game. Think Villa.
Rest in peace Daniel. My deepest condolences to family and friends. Come on Arsenal - let's pay our respects I'm the 14th minute.
Love Ben's black arts...great to have him on the pitch...stuff like that drives other teams crazy which is the goal...
Thanks for another excellent show Charles and for choosing my comment. Totally agree it won't be in Mikel's mind, as the main thing is that Timber will be back but still interesting I think. And I also agree it will likely be Vieria, ESR or Eddie who drop out. Personally think ESR might be the one to miss out on a place in the squad, barring any injuries. Thanks again
I have always been a huge supporter of Jesus, was ecstatic about his signing and early start to career at Arsenal but now I'm almost convinced he is not the man the spearhead a title winning team. Arsenal in my view need a goal when there is no chance of one, not a player who needs 10 chances to scores
Poor Daniel may he rest well😓
No room for sentiment if you want to win things. Cut our losses and move on, afterall City did the same. He’s taking up squad space of someone who would be there when needed. Availability is a big part of ability. And at the end of the day, he isn’t clinical enough.
G. Jesus should be talked about only after Nketiah, Reis, Fabio, Elneny, Cedric have all left the club and we have Saka replacement. Otherwise, G.Jesus should compete with Saka and/Martinelli on the wings. We also need Odegaard's replacement
@@njokesteve5246True.
Hi Charles - hello from a Frenchman in Chicago! Do you think Arteta needs/wants a left 8 that has powerful physical abilities? Last season we had Xhaka, this season it's been mostly Havertz or Rice playing there. Can that explain why ESR, Vieira or even Zinny and Trossard aren't getting regular game time in that position? Havertz, Rice and Xhaka certainly share that physicality, and also that durability, they can go full steam for 90min whereas the other 4 I named seem to be more 70min players. And also their availability, they're pretty much ready every week, never injured. Having some physical in that role protects and also brings the best out of Odegaard. ESR Vieira Zinny and Trossard can't bring that physical aspect even when they play at their best.
Can't believe I'm doing this but credit to Ange. Vicario could be Italy's #1 if he can sort out his set piece keeping, they should be doing what they can to help him improve. Glad they're not blowing it out of proportion.
Hi Charles, I would keep Jesus and sell Nketiah! Jesus is a great squad player and can impact games with his pressing and dribbling.
Watching here from uk🎉
Hi Charles. Jesus isn't a striker in my opinion. He himself has said scoring isn't the first thing on his mind, suppling chances is. That is not the mindset of a striker. I would like him to stay but be utilised as a winger in rotation with Saka, Martinelli, and Trossard. He deserves a chance to properly get over his injuries. We should be bringing in a striker who has scored 15 a couple of seasons running. Not easy, I know.
People need to realize that players say and do things all the time to unsettle the opposition. You get this in all sports.
I think buying and selling will be a juggling act. For instance, if we can't get exactly the forward(s) we want, we could keep Jesus because he can play anywhere across the front. Same for the central midfielders - depends on who we can get and how much we have to pay as to whether Partey stays or goes.
I cried yesterday when I saw that boy was killed without realizing he was one of ours. So sad for his family; I really hope all gooners rally around them.
what happened
@@fazlerabbi2666 14 year old arsenal fan Daniel Anjorin was stabbed to death by some psycho in a sword attack in east london last week :(
@@fazlerabbi2666 Some sad, broken person attacked people with a sword in northeastern London.
Extra time... Great job with this channel. Jurien is so versatile that he could cover both right and left back like Tomy, but would if he comes in for White in the game wouldn't Ben be really angry at the move with his current form.
You want also look at signing an Oodegaard type player in addition to a winger. Viera and ESR have not shown much competitiveness
Hi Charles! My thoughts on the coming transfer window: 1. The top priority is a winger. In a dream world someone that can cover both sides. Between Havertz, Jesus and Trossard playing centre, I think support on the wing is most important 2. I would not sell ESR or Viera. I think they have loads of potential. We know Mikel plays with his first choice most times, so having players that can come in and out of the team is crucial 3. I think Kiwior and Tomiyasu are viable options for centre back support, but one signing for this position would be great Outside of this, I truly believe the team is in a great position. Utilise the young guys coming through for FA and Carabao. I personally think wholesale changes are not needed. And no way will they sell Jesus
We should sign Alexander space ISAK, as he can both play Central striker and on the wing, giving us the options to play there in games where we need a target man/playmaker
EXTRA TIME: thoughts on giving Chido Obi a quick run out like Nwaneri had, just to see where he stands right now? Also any thoughts on the leaked designs for next year's home and away kits?
EXTRA TIME: Elneny- Solkjaer moment guy here - my name is S'BO GYRE [pronounced - s-bore jaw-jah; somehow I think you might still struggle 🤣] Given an opportunity arises, who would rather poach from our rivals - Rashford, Sancho or Mudryk? Love the work. Love from South Africa. PS: Got your book for Xmas and thought I'd read it in the run it but I've decided it's definitely a post-season read. Will you be updating it if we win the title this season?
An out and out deadly striker would lift the pressure of other positions. Right now I feel like we have to play well and with our best 11 at the time to win. With someone who can win games (or rather kill them off early) on their own with low percentage chances would mean we can play Hale End players or less trusted/out of form players in the attacking positions. A striker who could carry the team in easy game (a flat track bully like Haaland) and difficult moments would make such a difference.
I think we should keep him as a backup right winger behind Saka. Why does Arteta never play him on the right when he played there most of his career? Saka gets no pressure and I think Jesus days as a starter are over, but his quality when fit is undeniable. Partey is a tough one though. His injuries are too much but he's a top quality starter when fit...
he's our 2nd highest earner. Cannot be a back up. God you people are thick
Look at how much we are giving Nketiah to play zero games from the bench. Sell him. Look at the playing time Havertz was getting before this current run of form. Just because Jesus is benched doesn't mean he can't make it back to the starting lineup when eventually fit..Trossard starts over Martinelli now because Trossard, the bench player, is in better form than Martinelli. I think you and your mother are the thick ones.
@@Its_Only_Money I agree there are lots that need to go. But that's no excuse for keeping 265k a week back ups with horrendous fitness issues
@@innercircle341Look at the wages on City's bench over the years and Real Madrids bench ,they almost have 2 1st elevens on big wages
@innercircle341 If there was no intention of Trossard starting long term in front of Martinelli and we only want Trossard to be a "super sub" off the bench. If Trossard wants to leave to be a starter on another team unless we give him $250k to come off the bench, would you pay that wage to keep him?
Hi Charles Love from India, really appreciate the work you do. I was reading somewhere Arsenal have secured 40/45 points since 2024 and City have 39/45. We have scored the most goals, conceded the least yet it pains me to say that the title is still in City's hand. Had we played any other league we would have wrapped up the league by now. On the flip side it just shows how hard this league is, I mean Liverpool losing twice even after securing 90+ points is just bonkers. Also this season our record against the Big 6 has been incredible its really funny that we havent been able to win against Fulham and Villa including both home & away So my question is what next can Arteta do to end the trophy drought?????? At some stage I believe winning trophy does matter, no doubt we have come a long way but capturing trophies are an integral part of football and so far Arteta has won only the FA cup (if we dont include the Community Shield) and that FA cup was won by the defense of Luiz, Mustafi, Bellerin and co
Would be interesting to contrast Jesus with Partey in terms of whether to keep, their contributions, injuries, availability, salary level, ages etc. End if the day, if squad size, budget, and PFS are ok, keep both as 2nd, 3rd choice and plan for 10 to 22 game starts...
I am surprised you find it surprising that Jesus could be sold yet would want Partey to go. Partey is the kind of player like KFB you plan the number of games you will use him in a season, big matches and end of the season run in. Keep Jesus and Partey they are massive figures in the dressing room.
This season Kai Havertz has played 10 matches in the Premier League as a CF, scoring 7 goals and making 6 assists. If he were to keep this rate up for a 38-game season he would be looking to score 27 goals and make 23 assists. These are otherworldly numbers and I'm not suggesting that Kai would do this. But seeing as Kai has played most matches as an attacking midfielder and only had a run of games up front from Gameweek 26 (Newcastle (H)), I think that we could use the funds elsewhere such as going big on a new midfielder and finding an able deputy for Saka on the right. Do you think Kai Havertz could continue this world class scoring form into next season?
As fans we think of a player having a specific position or positions. But modern coaches think of some players as being able to play in certain spaces on the pitch. I guess this is why most people doubted the Havertz signing whereas Arteta had a vision for his role. So when it comes to a new forward player, i agree we need another goal threat but it will likely not be a one.dimensional big man up front
Think Jesus and zinny are perfect examples of how fast we are progressing. 12 months ago they were the first 2 names on the team sheet now you have a issue even finding space in the 11 for them (mainly on form). I’d like to keep Jesus but if the moneys right have no issues
Only Arsenal would purchase a number 9 player who openly admits to not scoring goals, a substitute for the number 9 position from a team that previously had no dedicated number 9. Is time to thank Broski 😍❤for his services and let him ho 🛫
I’d keep Jesus personally. Imagine the offers if any, after his public admission that he can’t remember the last time he played without pain.
I think between Havertz, G. Jesus, and Trossard, we're all set at striker for 85-90% of next season's minutes. All 3 have shown they can be effective leading the attack and with proper rotation it should hopefully keep G. Jesus better fit. What I think we need is an older, tall, strong player who we can get for relatively cheap and at his age is willing to take a smaller role late in his career on a team competing for the biggest trophies. Someone who is content being thrown on late in games when we're desperate for a goal, are having most of the possession, and need a big body with a goal scorer touch. Giroud would have been perfect had he not chosen to go to MLS. Someone available who does fit that mold is Luuk De Jong. 34 in August, I believe only 1 year left on his contract, and was a goal scoring machine this season at PSV.
For me you sell Nketia and keep Jesus. Looking at where we want to strengthen this Summer (Striker, cover for Saka and a new midfielder) Jesus is versatile and can provide good cover for Saka so we can focus this Window on a striker. I say we see how he gets on first half of next season before we consider selling as getting replacement would cost far more in todays market. After the Liverpool Spurs VAR catastrophe happened Ange said let the refs do their job and that he wouldn't question anything..... Separate concern of mine is our English quota..... If we are looking to sell Ramsdale, Nketia, Reece Nelson and ESR would we still be meeting the English quota? I only count Ben white, Declan Rice and Saka left. How much do you think we can raise from player sales this Summer? Obviously this would include Tavares, Lokonga, Tierny, Cedric (money saved from wages as he will prob go on free, as will Elneny). Does Fabio Viera go the on the keep or sell list? Tiraj
Love Partey and our midfield's been on another level these last two matches. Doubt anyone's going to offer big money for him so chances are sticks around for another year and the club gets to see if he can stay healthy and decide if it makes sense to extend his contract. I'm really hoping to see Timber in the midfield alongside MO & DR and the long-term plan has always been to have him end up there. My guess is MA was trying to squeeze him into the squad at LB and playing on the other side increased the injury risk to some degree so it kind of backfired spectacularly. Not sure why everyone thinks he's a LB but at Ajax he played a few matches at RB and mostly played CB. Still a bit traumatized by seeing him go down matchday 1 and really don't want to see him at LB again!
Charles do you think our lack of rotation may hinder us in the transfer market? Signing starters is simple but will prospective rotation players look at how high potential players like ESR/Viera have had their careers stagnate and be put off?
any possibility of martin obi replacing eddie as a squad player the next season or 2 you think?
I would keep jesus and review in Jan if injury is still a problem
To be fair, Ben’s touching of the keeper was a bit weird. Despite it not being a horrible violent foul it is intrusive and he can’t complain if it becomes the subject of debate.
Charles, you need to forget your sentiments with regards to Jesus. Yes, when him and Zinchenko first came they lifted us up another level but IMO we have moved beyond them now. They are both too injurey prone. Jesus simply doesn't score enough goals, and when he admitted his not a striker, he finished himself. On another note, RIP Danniell.
Extrat. Is the slow buildup play of arsenal alow/facilitate teams to play the low block. Would we be more dangerous if we were more direct and faster build up.
Hi Charles, Great show as always. Many people are mentioning that we need that “magical player” the player whom when the going gets rough can grab the game by the scruff of the neck. A Sanchez type player. In your opinion whom in current football market is that player? The player needs to realistically attainable by Arsenal so that rules Mbappe out as we cannot afford his demands.
Extra time: Hi Charles, James, huge fan of the show! I can’t help but romanticise at the prospect of Kai Havertz remaining as our go-to CF for next year. The technical ability, intelligence, pressing and combination play at just 24 makes me think he can be special for us. What are your thoughts on keeping him there and signing a young ST like Sesko who we can nurture, and a winger who can add to the goals instead? Dani
Hi Charles, Nick from America here, I would love to see Arteta play Smith-Rowe at striker. With Ødegaard occupying the central midfield role and Arteta seemingly unwilling to play him at left wing I think it would work. He’s direct, clinical, and a great finisher. I know he’s never played there before but I really do think it would work. What do you think?
Hi Charles 👋, I hope all is good 👋 👦 ☺️ 👍 😊 🙏. I agree with you Charles Arsenal should keep Gabriel Jesus for another season and give him a chance to prove himself as striker and help the team to win matches. COYG to thrash Bournemouth God willing. Have a great day Charles 😂. Arsenal rocks 🏆 🙏 🤲 🪨 🎸 😎.
He said himself he can’t remember playing without pain. Usually these players don’t last long Best to ship him even if he ends up doing well elsewhere, more power to him. But there’s too much risk involved. Could probably do well in Italy, my gut says Inter.
I think Zinny would drop if Timber is fit. Why would you need four left backs? Kiwi stays as cover for Gabi. Tomi is a starter until Timber gets up to speed. Zinny will be sold in the summer.
Wondering why not play him as another option on the right, especially as that would mean Saka can get a rest now and again. And a hot Jesus is a hot player and I`d keep him.
Keep Jesus. Let’s not forget the magic he pulled against Sevilla in the group stage. He has a skill level and flair on the ball that IMO is unmatched by anyone else in the team. He’s nowhere near being done at AFC. Was unsure about him when he joined, wondered if he would feel he’s a big fish in a small pond but his contributions have shone through. Unless someone comes in with a bid of 80 million at the very least, IMO keep Jesus. In terms of timing, the recruitment team is also better off focusing on key areas this summer than muck around with selling Jesus.
Top clubs let players leave 1 year to early rather than 1 year to late. Jesus and Partey need to be sold this summer.
Hey Charles! I think we will keep Jesus. MA loves his versatility and chaos. If we sold him it could prove really difficult to replace him with someone that does what he does. He's been injured and even after he came back we could see he wasn't at 100%. By the time we get to next season he should be back to 100% though, so would still be (in MA@s words) a very important player for us.
Jesus needs to be given at least one more season. Unless that injury's severity is like what Overmars had. Otherwise, he gives us so many options. We've seen how good he was when 100%.
Hi Charles #EXTRATIME Lovely content as always I have been listening to all your insights regarding Jesus, no doubt he makes our team stronger when he is fit and playing in his full potential but as you have James have been repeatedly telling that for any player the past injuries are the signs of what to expect for future injuries. Jesus have not been same since his last injury, you see last season as well when he was integrated back into our team it led to dropping of our points and this time as well. There's no point keeping a lavish car in your garage when you know it can breakdown anywhere when you take it for a ride. Would love to know your thoughts about it Abhimit
Can we snatch Dembele from PSG? He's so good on both wings and hasn't had as much injuries as before
Arsenal should offer Jesus to Newcastle for Isak. We should definitely sell Nketiah, Tierney, Lokonga, Nelson, Tavares, Maquinos, ESR this summer.
EXTRA TIME: Pradipto here (You have read my comments 3 or 4 times before and pronounced my name differently each time! :D ) About whether to sign a striker in the summer, my take is, Yes, we should! With Eddie almost certainly going out and Kai looking promising, I think we can move Jesus to a permanent winger role (let's be honest, Jesus as striker is not going to work) So we have Kai/New ST/Trossard as ST, Saka/Jesus/Nwaneri? as RW, Martinelli/Trossard/Jesus as LW. And if the new striker is versatile (like Isak), he can be a winger option too. That's a lot of options without having to sign a backup for Saka.
I think it would be a nice tribute to have at the 14 minute to have a round of applause and perhaps a 1 minute stop of play and for us to wear black armbands for the game
#extratime A recent article (Amy Lawerence-Athletic) identifies 8 players based on minutes played and the emerging tactical structure of the team as the core of Arteta’s squad. With the return of Timber that real figure maybe 9. However, Jesus, Zinchenko, Martinelli, Jorginho,Trossard, Partey, Tomi and Ramsdale are all omissions from that list and might be thought of as situational players or as finishers going forward, Some of these non-core players are amongst the highest wage earners at the club. Bearing in mind we are in the process of offering Jorginho a new deal and have recently given Tomi a new deal- if selling our Hale End product neither raises the money or clears enough wages to facilitate our desired incomings which of these players would you contemplate selling? For me it's hard to see past Ramsdale, Partey,Zinchenko, but it might also explain why we'd be prepared to sell Jesus.
Charles I think we need an out and out No 8 not a utility player we don't have one at the moment
Not sure an additional speedy winger is essential. Don’t we already have two: Martinelli and Saka? Plus Jesus can play on either wing. Some of his best performances for Man City came on the right wing. What is def needed is a new younger version of Partey (Youssef Fofana?), plus a classic target man #9, either as a back up for Havertz, or to play there if Havertz is moved to the #8 - as may happen in a late game push for a goal. How about Solanke? Couldn’t we tempt Bournemouth with Eddy and Reiss Nelson in a trade?
Zinchenko is now 3rd, possibly 4th choice left back with Timber back and Tommy in front of him. Jesus you say his knee seems an ongoing issue, if he can remain fit and back to full fitness, he has the ability and strength to create chances in packed defences. Finishing remains erratic. We will need a big squad, Arteta will make the decision as who goes and who remains, I’m happy with that. I am working Saturday so will miss the game, the senseless murder of Daniel will have shocked everyone. I am sure everyone there will want to pay their respects.
We should sign Olise - £60m, proven in the Prem and can play out wide or as an 8. Only worry is the injury record obviously…
Charles, on the topic of signings here is a tough question for you: who is the worst signing from Ajax - Anthony, Donnie van der Beek, or Eric Ten Hag?
Injuries+wages. He makes 260k a week which is not sustainable if he gets injured yet again plus it would be nice to free up wage space for new signings
Is this the first year in a long time where we will see players actually being sold for a decent price rather than terminating contracts. Would love to see some more of the hale end boys staying but if they aren't being fulled utilised the oppurtunity for clear profit cant be taken lightly. Be interesting to see what players people wouldn't mind being sold & what players people think would improve ths team further. For me personally a striker or right winger would be priority followed by another midfielder.
It all started with Aston Villas Douglas Luiz direct goal from corner against Arsenal, Ramsdale was blocked by an Aston Villas player. Since that day Arsenal has bee doing their own version of that.
No one does it better that Ben
Ben White was just trying to distract the keeper without causing a foul. It is attempted dark arts, as it breaks the keepers focus for a second, but compared to the dirty fouls we see in the box that don't get punished it's insane to give is more than a second of attention.
Jesus has been shocking this season, I’d be chuffed to bits if we move him and Zinny on asap we can do much better
I would not look to sell jesus, electric player n one of the few that can take on multiple players with the ball also great attitude.
Anyone else remember opposition teams winding Lehmann up years ago.
Wouldn't the most logical thing to do is sell Eddie, promote a youngster, and buy a more powerful forward or someone with variation. Keep Jesus because he can dribble in tight areas. Trossard apart, we don't have that aption when a team plays a low block. Otherwise, you rely on Martin Odeegard to pick a surgical ball. On an off day or when he's man marked, it limits the attacking option.
Charles: What about selling Jesus and Nketiah. Then Arsenal buys Benjamin Sesko so he and Havertz can both play as a striker. And last, we moves Chido-Obi Martin from the U18s to the first team as our 3. striker. I think it would work.
Unless arsenal gets a very good offer for Jesus, I think he should stay. He doesn't have to play and start every game so it should keep him relatively healthy and fit. Plus he's still a good player to come off the bench for the front 3 when they need a different approach. For partey, same thing with Jesus. The only difference is that unless they get a midfielder to come in and start right away, partey can start the "big" games and rest the other games. Zinny should move to the midfield. At this point it is absolutely useless to keep him at LB.
Love jesus-but his injuries are a concern
Our hardest game in the next 3 games is definitely the next vs Bournmouth. We get through that and city drop any points at all title is ours!! COYG
I think Jesus will always be a player that benefits playing game in game out, injuries and playing second fiddle didn’t help him at city nor will at arsenal.
The gloves are off Charles 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hi Charles. If we have the best attack in the English Premier League, and if that is the best league in the world or one of, then would that make the current attack the best attack in the world? If so, would you change it? I think that is the real question and perspective. I wouldnt.
Jesus can be used as a back up to Saka. He does not look like the no9 we need. Havertz with his modest ball abilities is looking more useful. I wish Arsenal went bold and signed Harry Kane instead of all those experiments Arteta is trying to to do. The priority this summer is to get a classy center forward and try to trim the inflated squad. Nelson, Rowe, Vierra, El Neny, Soares, Nketiah, Lokonga, Tierney, Tavarez, Patino, Zinchenco, Jorginho can be disposed.
Extra time. Charles, hope you're well. Something that the alleged stance on Jesus stance is making apparent is that the evolution Mikel wants to foster at Arsenal is rapid, with him and his staff not only identifying players, but seemingly having targets in terms of their development that they want the players hit. If they do hit them, they become mainstays and if they don't, they are liable to be culled. Who do you think are the players most at risk to be part of the next culling, after Aaron, Eddie, possible Emile, etc. Which players of the current squad do you think have the shortest shelf life from a project/development point of view? Hope you had something delicious for lunch.
Emotional attachment to some players is some of our crimes as fans. Jesus n zincho are good players but it's high time we move on from them if we need to finally get over the line and beat City and Co.
i've had this nagging feeling for months that maybe it was time to think about moving jesus on. i thought it was just me. on the other hand, zinchencko definitely has to be replaced or at the very least moved out of the lb position. i still don't understand why we play someone in a defensive position who clearly sucks at the defensive side of his role.
Extra time: Recently, the question has been asked as to weather we still need to sign a striker following Kai Havertz’s upturn in form upfront. Although I do think we still need to sign a striker, I think it should put us in a position where we can be patient to make sure we sign the right player. There is a lot of talk around who would be the best option for arsenal to sign but that is because there is no glaringly obvious signing that brings us the 20/30 goals a season striker that people think we are missing. I would suggest that (like city did waiting for Haaland and playing false 9s for a couple of seasons) we bide our time to splash significant funds a clear and obvious upgrade on Kai and Jesus, even if this means we sign Isak when it is more likely we can do a deal with Newcastle. What are your thoughts? Harley.
Re this Ben White saga - it’s quite laughable. Reminds me of Xhaka’s interview in the players tribune when he quoted Micah Richards. “When it’s Arsenal, everyone wants to lump in.” No mention of Joelinton on Gabriel, no mention of Bowen on Ramsdale last season, or even Vicario on Raya in that same game…it’s all a bunch of nonsense! Just a way to distract the attention away from a pretty horrific PGMOL season.
Hi Charles, I love the show. What about cover for Odegaard?
Hi Charles! What do you think, realistically, how much money can we recoup from sales this summer? What would be in your opinion the absolut minimum we should get? Bearing in mind that Edu is doing right now his ''We-would-also-like-a-piece-of-Saudi-money'' tour? I personally think this summer will be a huge ''proving a point'' for Edu when it comes to sales.

Extra Time - we all agree we need a winger, and the left wing particularly could be up for grabs for 'starter' in the team, as much as a starter exists at least, could Sancho be the answer? We might be able to get a relatively decent price on him, if Ten Hag stays he can't return there and what Arteta has done for Havertz could really interest him, and we know he has quality.
i’d literally have trossard martinelli esr and nelson before sancho
Never mond Jesus. Why aren't we tryna sell Nketiah
Hi Charles I really love your content. I think as much as we love partey, we should sell him and get a midfielder which allows us to go toe to toe with the likes of City, Madrid etc. I'd sell Eddie and keep Jesus and buy a fast winger for rotation with Saka. Do we need to go and get a Saliba rotation option? Regards Jacky
