Don't we play this weekend? I figured a weekend off would have been nice for everyone, but what do I know

I think we play on Monday. I think this was also a trip to build some more chemistry and get the youngsters/Suarez minutes more than anything. Players like Ozil, Mustafi and Laca will probably only play 45 minutes. Granted I'm worried about injuries. Ramsey pulled out of the Welsh squad with an injury and we are coming into a very important home stretch where we need everyone.

We were down 1-nil for most of the half, but the Jenkinson has just leveled it up

My favorite quote of the match from Reddit

Tyreece John-Jules adds a 3rd. Steals the ball from a CB on the press, rounds the keeper and places it against two defenders in the net. Good composure from the 18 year old.

Plezueguelo gives away a poor penalty that they convert. 3-2 Arsenal

LA, Charlotte and DC are pretty much confirmed. I'm holding out hope for Denver because its the cheapest from DFW and I'm getting married/honeymoon 2 weeks before these matches and will be broke

Claims that we are looking to offload Ozil, Miki, ElNeny, Chambers & Mustafi this summer. No surprising names.

Ornstein claiming that we are likely looking at atleast 5 new signings in the summer. The 5 specific positions he mentions are LB, RB (cover for Bellerin), CM (Ramsey replacement), Wing, GK (Cech replacement). Hopefully we have plans to grab a CB as well.

I'll probably do Charlotte. Falls on a Saturday and it's nicer than LA or DC.

Yeah I'm thinking Charlotte as well, but there is still the rumored match in Denver which I'd rather go to. That game hasn't been announced yet since it isn't part of the ICC.

Bayern Munich in LA(Carson) midweek isn't ideal but hope to make it happen.

I'm going to Denver. Cheaper to get too from DFW, I have a buddy there and I might sneak in a quick 14er before coming home. It means literally landing from our honeymoon and getting on another plane 2 days later but its worth it.

Numerous publications are insisting that we are in on Umtiti and Alaba for this summer.

The Alaba rumor is based on Bayern signing Lucas Hernandez. He plays LB for France, and so the logic is that he'd do the same in Munich which would make Alaba redundant. The problem is that I don't agree with that train of thought. Hernandez can also play CB, and as Boateng is set to leave at the end of the season, it makes more sense to me that he'd play CB and Alaba would stay put at LB. So I don't see that one happening.

It's also based on Alaba recently stating some stuff about new challenges, playing in the EPL and always being a fan of Arsenal.

True, I forgot about that part. But his contract isn't about to expire, is it? I don't think so, and I don't see Bayern selling him for what we would offer given we have so many needs to fill this go around.

I don't disagree at all. Just find it interesting that so many are claiming that we are hot & heavy after the pair. Wish it were true as they would make a huge impact.

I am torn can do direct to LA or Charlotte. LA is a week night but better match up.

Apparently we are finalizing the signing of 17 year old Brazilian Gabriel Martinelli depending on him getting a passport. Supposed to be a new, hot prospect.

Linked with a Spanish MF named Joan Jordn. Has a 15M Euro release clause. Pretty positive info about him online. Seen some claims that he is damn near a like for like replacement for Ramsey.

Huge match tomorrow. Time for the lads to nut up or shut up because the final run is tougher than it looks with 5 away matches. Emery better have the guys ready to rock in roll out of the break which came right as we were hitting our stride.

Win today and we are in 3rd. Win the rest of the games on our schedule (very doable) and no one can bump us from that spot.

3rd place in Emery's first season would be astounding.

I think it will be very tough. We've won only 1 match away from home in the league since November and it was against Huddersfield who've already been relegated. Watford, Wolves and Leicester away from home will be massive tests plus adding in the Napoli fixtures.

And we barely won that Huddersfield game if I remember right...

We did well there, but gave up a ET goal at the end to make sure we don't keep a clean sheet. If they play like they did against spuds away we can do well, but we are having to put a lot on our away form which has been awful for over 1.5 years
