I cannot find any info on this but what about David Luiz? I know he is no longer an Arsenal player but he really has not found any club to sign for?

Feel sad for Arteta though.. He will have take the blame for this season as their supporters/bosses still consider Arsenal as top6 team. This team is rather 7-10. Can compete with Everton and Leicester maybe.

Really?

The guy literally had no managerial experience before he took the Arsenal job but was deemed to be like a WOW candidate just because he worked as a coach under Guardiola. Arsenal have been a mess for ages for now - long before Wenger and Emery were gone - but he took the job anyway. What's more is that he has a lot of say at the club such as getting a lot of, if not the full say in how he wants to be build the squad and the way he has gone about it has been bewildering to say the least. One minute he's looking for experienced players like Willian and Aubameyang and the next he's leaning more towards younger players and there's the sudden obsession with No.10s, like the old Wenger days. Since Arteta's been at Arsenal, he's bought players like Mari, Soares, Willian, Gabriel, Runarsson, Partey, Ceballos, Odegaard, Tavares, Lokonga, White etc. Out of those names, Partey is arguably the only good player as the rest wouldn't even get anywhere near a top side. Arteta has had 4 transfer windows, including this summer, and it's hard to know exactly what kind of squad, what kind of direction he actually wants to take Arsenal towards to.

Honestly, it is about fucking time we beat them competitively. We need to take advantage of the negative atmosphere at the club and not reinstall confidence in them, which we make a habit of when playing them. Put them to the sword and finish them. Delighted Lukaku will be ready for this. He will raring to go and if he gets chances against that defence, he will be having a field day hopefully.

Yeah, Arsenal shamed themselves, but I've been a Chelsea fan for way to long to laugh at this kind of crap. Like, you never know when it's your turn…

But what's life without living in the moment and enjoying it...?

Actually delusional or concerned about his ambassador pay packet. Or both. As bad as Spurs former players and aligned pundits, shocking and worrying fantasy about their clubs.

Anyway, if hope Arteta doesn’t change a thing, keep Tierney going down the left flank like he’s a striker, not knocking him he’s a decent player, but Tuchel will eat their formation and tactics alive, if things stay as they were tonight.

I really hope Lukaku is ready to bulldoze them next week.

Can't stand sitting through another one of their defensive counterattacking fluke tactics.

I am not getting my hopes up, but it would be great.

Ben White 50m 🤣 wouldn’t pay 5m for him based on last nights game and there were folk on here saying he was an excellent buy for Arsenal.

Lukaku gonna have a field day. Fuck even Werner might have a field day. If we don’t beat that Arsenal team we may as well not beat anybody.

White was rag dolled about by Toney last night, looked like a kid out there.

I don't think it helps having Chambers next to you though, at Brighton he had Dunk, very vocal and commanding CB.

Against teams that cannot stick to a gameplan, White will look better for sure, but ultimately, as Sky said last night, each team is looking at that and thinking to stick someone on him. White needs to go watch some Riccy C videos from the day on how to deal with taller strikers and long balls, masterful.
