Some tasty goals in that game too. I hope Spurs get off to a really good start and Kal comes back. Then Arsenal win the league. Is this some kind of reverse jinx?! Liverpool are going to win the league obviously. Slot will have a screamer of a first season. ...

I don't think saying he hopes his team win the league is a reverse jinx, unless there's some 4D chess going on here that's beyond me.

The Solanke to Spurs story seems to be gaining speed. I'm not seeing how he's an upgrade to Richarlison.

Statistically they're pretty similar.

Not an upgrade for me, but definitely good option given the number of games we potentially have and Richi’s injury record.
There are not many top strikers out there so it’s about having cover and rotation and keeping Son out on the left.
If we sell Richi though I think we’ll have just stood still.

This is the thing isn't it - even if they're of similar ability, if you get twice as many games out of Solanke (his injury record is pretty good) then surely he's worth a fair bit more to you.

Also please can you buy him before next Saturday?

I bet when players checked their pockets they found three envelopes.

A few reporters saying the Solanke deal is done and a club record.
Others saying personal terms still to be agreed.

Looks like Nketiah is finally making a move. I'm wondering who we'll get in as a replacement. Or maybe we won't replace him?

While we're speculating, I think ETH gets sacked around the 23rd of November...cause the injuries keep coming and we lose to Ipswich, let's say 4-0.

Pretty weird story about Arteta doing the rounds this morning He's off his rocker. Seems more likely that one was just a practical joke to me. Not that Mikel doesn't have form for creating 'teachable moments'. I hope Eddie goes and I'm not entirely sure he needs directly replacing. I'm happy with Havertz, Jesus, Trossard and Martinelli as options though the middle. Still vainly hoping we can find a player with exceptional pace. When Martinelli is injured or just not playing well, we don't have anyone we can bring on to worry opposition who play a high line. Nketiah was annoyingly ineffective in this scenario.

Solanke to Spurs is good business if he can consistently replicate his form from last season. Big 'if', mind.

The state of the striker market is pretty miserable. Surprised no-one has snapped up Johnathan David.

He wears number 9, so we will not be buying him.

Ornstein reporting that Arsenal have accepted an offer for Eddie of a season long loan with €30m obligation to buy (so extremely similar to our Raya deal). That's more money than I thought we'd get for him. Good news I think. Although does point to any potential big money attacking addition being next summer not this one.

Who was looking for Now TV offers recently? I just got their annual £19.99 email.

I've paid 19.99 for Now TV sports for about 7 years now. Do one month, threaten to cancel your subscription just before it expires and you'll get a "please don't leave" offer before you can fully cancel the sub.

There's such a dearth of strikers at the moment. Nico Williams but he's set on Barca. Think we probably need another forward though. Jesus is bound to get injured, we can't play Saka for 60 games again. Not sure Vieira out there works
