2025/26 Season

With Leoni out until next year, anyone think Takehiro Tomiyasu is worth a go, on a free and just started training again after knee surgery

Not a bad shout, 24 month contract sell after 12. Brighton are meant to be after him.

Sign him get him a winners medal and annoy arsenal even more, yes please.

Ha can you imagine

I work with a bunch of gooners and they all love him. Most feel he was the best one on one defender they’ve had in years and only let him go for fitness reasons.

They’ll probably rotate a lot as well considering they are in Europe. I imagine they’ll prioritise that as they’d have a good chance to go far in the conference league.

Let's hope so. The lure of CL football next season may force their hand.

Being awesome is what he's doing while the judas' at our club turn their backs to him!

[Sus]

Someone (can’t remember who, sorry) mentioned on another thread that our long term plan post Salah might be a version of a 4-4-2 with a diamond in the middle.

I thought that was an interesting idea, which helps me see a more natural fit for Frimpong and Wirtz long term, and would also help explain why we bought both Ekitike and Isak, and kept Chiesa

All pure speculation of course, as that would possibly go against offering Gakpo a new contract, but it might be interesting to see if this formation comes out this season, especially when Salah is at AFCON

[BG1973]

I'd call BS on that given one of Slot's attributes was that he played same formation as Klopp.

Has he ever played 4-4-2? Why would he start now having won the title last year with 4-3-3.

Aged well

Aged well

If you're talking about the own goal, that wasnt his fault. If anything he kept a sure fire 7 goals from going in that day. You know how many set pieces have gotten past him? None! Unlike the 20 we've suffered this season! Top defender in the league so far by a country mile. Just wait till Madrid come for him then you'll be sorry about turning your back on him! All of you will be sorry!
