    Don’t disagree….my issue is more that Rice seems to be his replacement and I think that’s a downgrade on Partey as he can’t play through the press. Caicedo would definitely have been an upgrade

    If Rice is Partey's replacement and Havertz Xhaka's replacement then we will most definitely adjust our tactics, they are not like for like replacements. We will still press high but in a different way I assume. For all the flak we give Xhaka, he did contribute defensively last season, I can't see Havertz doing that at all or not the same as Xhaka so that will mean the team has to adjust somewhere.

    I think this narrative of Partey fuckin up on a regular basis is pretty baseless, man. Which games was he shit in? He made the mistake against West Ham but the was followed up by typical Gabriel rashness and an unmerited penalty. He was woeful against Man City, but he wasn't close to being the worst arsenal player on the pitch. When else was he so poor? He did seem to become a bit of a lightening rod, which never made sense to me.

    Jorginho is a reliable water carrier/ball mover. No more than that, for me.

    Rice is more overpriced than an iPhone. Ridiculous amount to pay for an overhyped Jordan Henderson IMO. Rather we have gone for Caceido..
    Arsene Wenger, the only football manager that got paid 8 million quid to do nothing but sit on his arse..

    Crazy money and Arsenal are fools to pay that much.

    The world has gone mad.

    Totally agree on all counts, including the iPhone bit - same goes for anything sold by Crapple, it's sad to see so many losers paying through the nose to try to make themselves trendy, it's pathetic really

    I’ve had an iPhone of one description or another for almost 15 years, couldn’t give a fuck about trendy I just find it functional


    That and I enjoy that the metal comes from conflict mines and child labour
