Easily the biggest and most admirable in London Until Arteta came along anyway. They used to say Arsenal was the club of the 'establishment', and that's probably largely true today.

Ronson333 Posted December 28, 2024 Share Posted December 28, 2024 (edited) We need Pope back for this, as well as Dubs has done we’ll need a keeper to deal with those corners. Without Saka - as we saw tonight- they won’t create much else. Edited December 28, 2024 by Ronson333 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
