Can never understand why anyone would sit and listen to something that makes them angry and about which they can do absolutely nothing? Just change the channel, surely? 🤷

Too many pundits view Arsenal as the club they were in the 90's 00's.

Arsenal can turn it around easy enough, their budget still dwarfs most teams, if they get a decent manager (or Artetta turns out to be one), they'll be back up the table. 

 

My issue isn't with people thinking Arsenal are a big club, and a better long term prospect than us. The issue is if he moved there, then what? The others are so far ahead of them, that whilst catching us might not be a huge issue, catching the others is likely to be. Chelsea and Man City are going to be light years ahead, Liverpool could stagnate as they aren't investing, but they have enough right now to stay ahead and Man U will just keep chucking huge money at it. If he goes there it will just be Europa battles, and fighting for cups like he is here, but without the opportunity to move upwards to one of those top 4, as Arsenal won't sell him. 

 

So a bit like Keane said, they are a massive club but he'd probably wait as he's not sure it's the right club.

Who are the two individuals on this video?

A pair of huge disrespectful Bell-Ends.  Amazing how Arsenal still hang on to history and manage to dodge reality.

This isn't something that annoys me, I love it. We've got them rattled over our players. We've come a long way. The majority of proper football peoeple in the media, and in gnenral actually, agree that we're a spectacularly well run club with a bright future. Enjoy it

They are a massive club, still think they have a few more issues then just having a good manager, Unai Emery was and is a good manager as he proved at Sevilla and Villarreal. I think their issues go a lot deeper.

 

My issue is pople still bracket them with Man C, Man U, Chelsea and Liverpool, I actual think the big 6 is turning back to a big 4 and maybe even a big 3 as Chelsea, Man U and Man C in the long term with the amount of money Chelsea, Man C, Man U are spending. 

 

Like you, I think why would he choose to go there, if he has an great season with us, keeps fit and stays injury free, he could easily score 10+, 10 assists etc, he would have the teams you have mentioned sniffing around.

Would imagine it is only a tempting move if Arsenal could become a serious top 4 contender in the next 2-3 years. I am sure its tempting to play your part (especially if its a leading one) in the resurgence of a one time giant, but the signs this is likely are quite low presently

I don't know why but of all the big clubs who have had success in the last 20-30 years I still struggle to take Arsenal seriously and they are a club with a longer history and tradition of being up there compared to the oil money of Chelsea and Man City. It must be their fans, they are absolute clowns.

 

Truth is, Arsenal aren't that far off us, but the fact they are even being disputed to be as good as us is staggering. Until they return to the top 4 mix though, like Man Utd have in the last 2 seasons then I don't think they deserve the attitude that players like Maddison should obviously want to go there. It's an unnecessary risk to go there and that's what those associated with Arsenal past and present can't handle.

 

We don't need to sell, he's on very good money here and at 24 he can afford to give it a couple more seasons before plotting his career that sees him get a move to one of the powerhouses that they all crave. You really wouldn't settle for Arsenal or Spurs right now unless your names in the mud, Maddison has his detractors but you go to either club and they continue their underperforming and that's it as far as career progression. Simply have to hope that they sort themselves out before you're either too old or have before you've been cast aside for something new and shiny.

 

Long may the ridicule of Arsenal and Spurs continue, and long may our seat at the top table be booked by us. Bring yer fcukin dinner.

Boils my piss listening to idiots talk about our club, which is 80% of people that don’t support us……

 

The arrogance towards some clubs is painfully tedious now. The fact is Arsenal won’t pay the cash to sign him….. and even if they did offer up the cash how can we replace him now? 
 

I’d be shocked and disappointed in the club if they let him leave now with no replacement. 

Why listen to it then?

What the club has achieved on the field since promotion is seriously unbelievable. Winning the FA Cup was so important in showing players that our owners mean business. When Brendan showed up at his first press conference and said "We will win trophies." It was a marker, and he paid it in full.

 

I know things take time, but I would like the club to take better advantage of the goodwill it has generated in England/elsewhere; not only by giving the big boys a bloody nose, but by seemingly standing against greed, i.e. voting against the PPV proposal. When I have worn my Leicester shirt on vacation, people come up and praise the team.

 

Not to be crass, the club needs to monetize and promote this. The new shirt sponsor is a good start financially, but the club needs a media rep to get the players in the news, on TV (or YouTube and the other weird things the young'uns do today while I'm shaking my cane at them.) To some extent, I wouldn't mind if Brendan called it out more, and put some pressure on Southgate for not calling up non-Big 6 players who are outperforming those in the England team. Just to keep the papers talking about Leicester.

 

Because the fact is, until we can pay our stars the same money as the Arsenals of the world, heads will be turned.

Well to be fair, someone has posted it on here, so it seems kind of natural to watch it, otherwise you can't really have an opinion on it to share on here.   Personally I don't go searching the net for opinions of pundits and such like, but if someone puts it into our forum then the likelihood is, I'm going to see what's said and express my opinion.

Arsenal are not a serious outfit. Wenger used to run that club on his own and they replaced him with about 4 people, all of whom are incompetent.

...Wenger used to run that club down...would be more like it!!!

   A manager who stayed far too long in the role, given too much control in how everything ran and had too much of an ego to see what he was doing to the club.

 You do not get demonstration before and in the middle of matches calling for your head, if people thought you were doing a good job.

  People are now attempting to pick up the pieces and the leadership is coming from a man, who cares nothing about nor attempts to uphold the clubs history within the game.

  Until their owner vacates the big chair and someone, who actually cares about the club is installed, they will continue to blindly stagger from pillar to post.

I think that going off of how they've done since Wenger has left would suggest that he had them punching above their weight with what the owners were giving him.

 

Neither Emery nor Arteta have really come close to replicating what Wenger did in his final few years with Arsenal, even if there were seen as being poor campaigns at the time.

...he had the funds, just never chose to use it!!!

 Notorious for not spending money, had a lot of great players go through his hands but refused to spend when they were young potentials coming up.

  The rot started with him and it looks like unless they get lucky by trial and error, they are not going to  get themselves out of this.

Madders gets a lot of attention in the tabloids who are determined to paint him in a very specific light. There's a couple of times he hasn't helped himself (cuddling girls in bikinis when his missus is at home heavily pregnant, breaking COVID protocol) but equally there's been times where its absolutely fuss over nothing (who cares if he owns an ugly rucksack and his 'wild casino night' when England were playing was him sat with a few poker geeks in Grosvenor drinking juice and watching the game. ) 

 

By and large he's always seemed like a pretty nice kid and a decent professional who lives and breathes football. He's never done anything to imply he's the sort of diva who'd down tools or cause a fuss to get a transfer or otherwise dishonour a contract he signed. 

Exactly this. He's also been working hard in pre-season to keep himself in shape and he already looks a lot fitter and as unaffected by injury than he did for much of last season, in my opinion.

 

Just because he likes his fashion and a night out, doesn't mean he's not a decent pro.

...came across this today!!!

 

James Maddison should be ‘KICKING THE DOORS DOWN’…: https://youtu.be/v0_O2Y7x2dM

Do they get paid to spout that?

 

When they talk about Arsenal maybe offering money and players, have they any idea that our squad is nearly full of highly capable players?  We are not  interested in makeweights form a team whose performance is and has been inferior to ours.  For us to consider taking a player from Arsenal, Arsenal would have to offer  players who they would rather keep.  There are few Arsenal players who would tempt Leicester.

 

Surely Maddison must see that Leicester is a better bet for him personally than Arsenal currently.  All players have a price.  I cannot see Arsenal offering enough.   They paid 50 million for White.  Although he is a fine player, Maddison's value must be significantly more.
