Good morning Tom and everyone… assuming we spend nothing or very little net this window… how many windows before we can spend “ Declan Rice “ type money again ?
Thoughts and hugs to Trevor G. We're all here for you buddy. Get yourself on the list for therapy asap, it'll help your long-term recovery from this trauma. Can't recommend it enough.
Lots of love to Trevor and sad for your loss. Stay strong ❤
Trevor, I don't have the words to consolidate the pain you are feeling but despite this I would like to express my deepest condolences to you and your family for the passing of your beloved. I hope you have the support from family and friends to hold you up during this incredibly difficult time. Tom's words and the comments on today's show highlight the love you have within this community and I can only stress to you you are not alone. ❤
We should pull out of Merino deal, if Arsenal don’t think he’s worth the money then move on to someone else
So far this window it's a 4/10, if we add Merino or an eight it's a 7/10. If we add a forward player on top of this then its a 9/10 window, and if we get another midfielder and sell Vieira it becomes a 10/10. Obviously it also depends on how well we do in sales but this is just an estimation and my personal opinion.
Sincere condolences to Trevor ❤
Condolences to Trevor, his family, friends and loved ones 🙏
TC, if Edu, Arteta and the Kronkes took advice from the fanbase…Chelsea would be sideshow🤞😜 We must be humble enough to trust the process, it got us here and the club finds itself in important enviable conversations about who is likely to win in 24/25🤞🤔
They might always be in contact with clubs but it takes 6-8 weeks to get one deal done
Gotta respect Real Socieded
They don't take nonsense

MM will be our last signing… we don’t seem to be able to move quickly… maybe financially we are being cautious.
It doesn't make sense we sign a forward if we still have Eddie n Reiss in our squad.
Tom, you’re pretty spot on most of the time but stop comparing this situation to Chelsea. Paying 34 million rather 29 still seems like great business for a player Arteta thinks is the guy! It’s not pushing toward 300 million spent ( or overspent ) it’s one deal. We need a central midfielder with Merino’s profile and ability. It’s been 20 years since we’ve won the league. Get. It. Done. Please. 😊😊😊
This carries on Merino will end up elsewhere & it’s just the same old story , Arsenal doing good business , being shrewd staying within monetary constraints , just get the business done & FFS go & get GYOKERES before we miss out completely , same old same old year in year out !
15:52 If I’m not mistaken it’s either Arsenal transfer now or new contract for Merino according to the President of Sociedad. Merino has a good relationship with them so no chance on a free next year
All the love to you Trevor
Sebastien Frey!!! What a Championship Manager legend!
Sincere condolences to Trevor.
This Merino deal is just dragging on. Arsenal should go for Fabian Ruiz instead. We could get him in a loan with a buy clause .
Mikel Merino groundhog days..
We made it to 60000+. Thanks for being a true gunner and please let's support Tom's journey.
Trevor 🙏🏽
GOOD. MORNING. TOM!!!
Too many expect FIFA timings for transfers, still got plenty of time no need to worry. Also all my love to Trevor and the family i wouldn't claim to know what hes going through but i can imagine it's the worst feeling ever and wouldn't wish it upon my enemy
Arsenal please don't torture
Your fans please settle marino episode fast
😢 Very sorry to hear of your loss Trevor! There are no words that can salve that wound. My best wishes!!! 😪
By the time I see this show in California, it is being reported that the Real Sociedad president has flown into London to finalize the Merino purchase details.
Hey Tom! If a team went invincible for a season with the same starting 11 in all matches, would the PFA Team Of The Season have to be that starting 11?
Sincere condolences Trevor 💜💜
You’re obviously very knowledgeable about this and other transfers but the fact that Merino is a 50m EUR player is moot as he’s already declared he wants to come to Arsenal, not willing to extend and also is in his last year if his contract so the market should not be dictating this move. They should accept 30m EUR and if they don’t I can see Edu walking tbh. Also, I’m with you, it’s a big mistake not accepting £25m offer from Notts Forest for Nketiah…can see him staying.
