How is Jorginho a big mistake? I watch Arsenal week in week out and aside from the Spurs game, he’s been decent. Hasn’t really been a world class player but he was brought in to be a squad player and an experienced head in the dressing room so with that being said, he is the definition of does the job.
The “Absolutely Useless” Fabio Vieria has more goals and assists in the league than Enzo and Caicedo combined ☠️ and Vieria has been out injured for the last 3 months☠️☠️☠️ proof little buddy doesn’t know anything ☠️☠️☠️
It’s getting a little obvious how little they watch arsenal and just speak to jump on the bandwagon. “Jesus better on the left” for us, based on what, how many games he played there? Trossard “always cuts in” how many assists have been off his left foot when he’s faking and crossing on the outside? And don’t start on their well informed analysis of Fabio Vieira, my word
Ya. He's had horrible moments, not been good, but he's not a stinker. Young as well, obviously brought him as a prospect, hadn't worked out well, yet, which means it could come good, though didn't look like it
They’re just giving their opinions as rival fans. I quite like listening to non LFC fan channels to hear what they think of how we’re playing right now.
David Luiz wasn’t anything special on the pitch but he was amazing with our youth players. I remember watching an interview with Saka where he mentioned that David Luiz was the first player in the first 11 that helped him on and off the pitch. Some things are hard to consider when there is no metric system to show how positive of an impact he may have had on Saka’s development.
Usually things are hated for good reason, not no reason. Maybe take those Arsenal goggles off & have a think about why Arsenal are not liked by opposition fans, there are many traits with your club that get right up people's noses & that's a polite way to put it pal. 😂
I think the confusion was because he came from the Brazilian league. He was pretty good at flamengo. I think if it wasn't for injuries and had he came younger he would've been a pretty good player for arsenal. Shame things didn't work out.
Rory's utter repulsion at any attempt to introduce nuance and context to this debate is fascinating. He's managed to make McKola look like Socrates in comparison.
Off topic but for a guy in his first manager job where he is pushing two generational managers in Klopp and Pep he gets a lot of stick. He’s only been a manager for 4 years ffs
Trossard on ''Does the job'' is silly. He's a perfect signing because he does exactly what they wanted from him. Being the perfect 12th man. He was bought to replace Martinelli when injured or when Martinelli gets rest. He also is useful on the 9. Nobody expected him to be a starter. While he's given them performances worthy of being a starter. That's a perfect signing. And Jorginho does the exact same thing. He does the job when he's needed. He also wasn't intended to be a part of the starting 11. The ''main'' midfield is often Havertz, Rice, Odegaard. Or Rice, Partey, Odegaard. Joriginho is another 12th man that does the job whenever he plays.

Just shows anyone no matter how little they know can succeed in life. 😊
Imma spurs fan and the Arsenal hate in this is crazy, some players in some categroies are crazy, Zinchenko even the whole Ramsdale discussion I felt was so harsh
Most players Arteta has signed has had some reasoning behind it, He wanted a left footed CB so he got Mari, He wanted a back up GK so he got Turner, A creative midfielder that can cover positions so he got Vieira, a versatile RB so he got White and Tomi. The bias just shines through from them and blinds them from making a neutral decision. Arteta also inherited a squad that couldn't play how he wanted so why would he not sign a lot of players to get them to where he wants them and we were also finishing 8th at the time so the top players wouldn't come hence the lesser signings to help get us back into contention for the bigger names
Buvey’s dislike for Ramsdale is mental, when man said Raya would elevate us to a next level whilst completely disregarding everything Rambo has done (TOTY GK last year btw) is unreal. Of course you’re gonna look worse when playing for crap sides of Sheff Utd and Bournemouth
Even if people prefer Raya idg how Rams isn’t a great signing. Brought us up levels for 30 mil and can be sold for at least 45-50 mil if he leaves this summer
Arteta gets disrespect because he’s arsenal manger, his first job as manager trying to break up 2 of the most dominant teams and managers the league has ever seen and he still gets criticised, the fact we’re even competing is a great step in the right direction
Good God ! are you sure.He's proper abysmal, lightweight, invisible player who will never make it in this league - £30mill for him is almost as bad as 65mill for the misfit Havertz...Christ!
Some of them made no sense to me. And THAT makes sense cuz you 3 are not arsenal fans lol Zinchenko minimum in Jurys Out same with Kiwior. Kiwior has been average at best. Tomiyasu is at the same level as Ben White or IMO even better should be straight in in Perfect Signing. Jorginho has to be in Does the Job all day every day. Havertz for now has to be in Jurys Out, had couple useless games but had couple of decent games to.
Jorginho DOES THE JOB! To put him in mistake is crazy!! Ramesdale absolutely does the job. I can’t believe the city fan was saying mistake! Some of his saves last season were match winning saves! Arsenal will never see the best of Rambo now, because the pressure on him is unreal. He has to leave and everyone will see how good he is. I wish him all the best! You could say the same for Jesus! Absolutely love the guy, excellent player but it’s pains me to say, he has to go too. They both did the job to make us a better team but not top tier because there not good enough to win us the league
I think your take on Fabio Vieira is harsh. I think the jury is out certainly, but he's one of the most technically gifted players in the squad and can pick out a pass better than most.
Zinchenko in "Big mistake" is mad. Yes he's not been great defensively since he has come in and it has really shown this season. But discounting his contributions last season in helping get us back in the top 4 seems a mistake. I'd put him in "Does the job" and Vieira, Havertz and Kiwior in "Jury's out"
I think these type of discussions should only be done by supporters of the clubs, as they watch and know their better than most. There’s no point asking a Man City, Man United and a Chelsea fan who are best signings are, especially Adam and Buvey who hate Arsenal and use every chance to stick the boot in us
its truly pathetic how badly Rory slags off ex-Chelsea players who aren't English. especially when they contributed massively to winning the champions league. Only has an affinity for English players who are "Proper Chels" or the occasional foreign player who he feels puts in a shift.
The squad is barely equal to when he began... a good coach can make bad players better.. a good coach could of spent 0 and taken them to a better level... keep the delusions alive 😂
Exactly. Won the only trophy he has with the squad he got. They play better football now but it all about what you win at the end of the day. Nothing else
@@fplfieco22 he got a squad with a bunch of players already in there prime, and in massively in form auba, he now has an incredibly young squad with almost 0 people in there prime and they are still building. He’s taken us from an 8th place finish to being the clear 3rd best team in the league in his first ever managers job. Only reason everyone seems to think he should have done way more is because is cuz they know how good he is
@@tmithoth8956 So why has pep got one of the most expensive teams in europe and spent well over a billion at his time in man city all the best teams in the world spend massive amounts of money my guy.
Price of each signing should also be put in context. Cedric as a free transfer in 2020, when Arsenal are 14th in the table makes sense. The player will obviously not make sense for a team that is challenging after 2-3 years.
Also failing to understand that Arteta changed from "1st Team Coach" to "Manager" in September 2020... tends to have a small effect on your input into a clubs transfer dealings.
Is so strange for me, I used to hate Adam on the kick off being an arsenal fan, he hated everyone and was negative. Now I’m sat here thinking he’s genuinely spot on with his positive approach to arsenal. This clip shows he sees it from the right angle. Buying turner for 3rd keeper or Jorge as a cheap backup cdm with experience
Rory needs to take his Chelsea goggles off. I think Jorginho was a great signing for the money. Brings experience to a young midfield, has experience in Europe and does a job when called upon. Decent squad player
I think the overall quality of the signings improved once Raul Sanllehi left the club, it was his strategy to work with agents and try to find "great deals" rather than to look at how players would fit into the squad. Sanllehi's structure was that he takes care of signings and Arteta works with what he is given, there was a massive disconnect. The structure now has Edu making signings but very much in partnership with Arteta. You can argue Sanllehi only was responsible for two signings that really worked out for us... William Saliba and Gabriel Martinelli and Martinelli was apparently due to all the work and influence of Edu rather than Sanllehi.
Raya and ramsdale have 8 pl clean sheets combined which is the most clean sheets for any club.. Its a proven success :D they are partners in crime haha 😊
Rory calling Havertz, this aged well after Sunday’s game. Was a nightmare for konate and VVD. Been playing really well even just before his first goal. Just needs to get a it more calmer in front of goal
Turner and Trusty were commercial signings and we made money on them both Vieira has been a failure unfortunately. Ramsdale will depend on what we get in sell on value
Arteta made the keeper issue. Had he made Martinez number one after fa cup win wouldn't have had all this. Signed too many keepers that haven't worked. Turner, Runarson, Ramsdale, Raya. 4 keepers in 4 years is madness. Top sides sign a top keeper and stick
Jesus and Zinchenko were great signings considering we signed them without having Champions League football, we should be attracting better players going forward
I would change: Does the Job - Jorginho, Turner, Mari Jury's Out - Vieira, Havertz Perfect Signing - Trossard Zinchenko is between Perfect Signing and Does the Job
What a hot take on Matt Turner from Rory. Turner was signed as a back up likely for commercial reasons (American market) and sold on for a profit. He's now a starting GK in the Premier League albeit for a poor side and he's a starter for his national team. It's a fine deal for me.
Horrendous take from Rory on Vieira. Has the same G/A as Enzo this season and has started 20 games less. Has higher G/A per 90 than Hojlund, Jackson, Nkunku, Szoboszlai, and Darwin. He gets a goal or assist almost every single time he plays. He is just getting started. Injury didn't help this season. Is he the greatest player wesigned? No of course not. But Rory football IQ clearly -40 for this take. Also Jorgi and Zinny have been great for us. Maybe next time get an actual fan of the club on yeah? Adam being the voice of reason just proves this list was made out of bitterness (Rory ranking all ex-Chelsea players as failures lmao) and people who clearly don't watch Arsenal. Love the videos you make so thank you for that but it's not really fair not getting a fan of the club to have input. Maybe having one or two more categories might help in between the jurys out and bad and between jurys out and does the job.
I'm struggling with the view on Martin O. To say he goes missing in the big 6 games... We've not lost a game against the big 6. (depending on whether you class Newcastle as top 6) I agree - we need to see more, but I feel that he makes sacrifices in big games to keep us in the game.
Jury's out is always applicable especially when the player has just switched teams because its a new system, new tactics etc. but Rory doesn't know ball so not surprised. with the data seen on KDB and salad for Chelsea they would've written them off, but a different team and system literally changed their careers
mstt turner goes in top tier was signed from mls and flipped for profit whilst puttin in decent performances and only conceding one goal against man city and a coouple good europa league games as well as earned himself a sport in the world cup and then scammed forest top tier. was also so enthusiastic and made everyone happy and laugh in the dressing room
Do you watch the news at all. Obsession with arsenal. I a Utd fan. Who you think get more media attention ??? Yous a better team so you should as should Liverpool and city and have the league at this stage but cop on. It not even close when it comes to who they talk about the most
Your an arsenal fan ye ?? You not think your search history might have something to do with the videos you been advised to watch. Most talked about thing to do with arsenal is the fan channels
This video is hilarious 😂😂😂 How often they say about the quantity of signings and the cost... failing to mention the comparisons in the same time frame of United, City and Chelsea... This show has because a complete parody 😂😂 its become clear football isnt for you lads
I’m a Chelsea fan so I don’t have the best knowledge of Arsenal ..but I would have love to see Ben white on CB .. I remember when I think it was the euros and everyone was saying how impressed they were with rookie Ben White on centre back, and I was very excited to see what he was gonna do but it’s like Colwill some of his stuff is taken away when it gets put on the wing. Also, I would love Ramsdale on Chelsea, I think Petrovic doing a good job but I think Ramsdale is a lot better than Arteta rates …I’m sorry I don’t get Raya
You guys acting like Ramsdale's career is over is just crazy. Probably won't work out at Arsenal, but he's still very young and has a lot ahead of him.
Zinchenko as a huge mistake for 25M is nuts. Yea, he’s not a long term solution, but he was really good last season and was a part of their ascendancy.
As an Arsenal fan: Perfect signing: Gabriel, Partey Odegaard, White, Jesus, Rice, Trossard, Zinchenko Does the job: Ramsdale, Tomiyasu, Kiwior, Jorginho, Vieira Jury's out: Timber, Turner Big Mistake: The rest
Wow Jesus and zinchenko aren’t perfect signings. You need a new striker and left back as they aren’t good enough. They are back up players if you want to win the league
Not having an Arsenal fan for some balance was mad. The Real List: Perfect: Rice, Jesus, Gabriel, Odegaard, White Does (or Did) The Job: Ramsdale, Turner, Partey, Tomiyasu, Trossard, Jorginho, Kiwior, Zinchenko, Ceballos Jury's Out: Havertz, Timber, Raya, Fabio Vieira, Lokonga, Nuno Tavares. Big Mistake: Mari, Cedric, Willian
Your list is infinitely better than theirs, but my tweaks would be: Perfect: Rice, Gabriel, Odegaard, White, Partey, Trossard Does (or Did) The Job: Ramsdale, Tomiyasu, Jorginho, Kiwior, Zinchenko, Ceballos, Havertz, Jesus Jury's Out: Timber, Raya, Fabio Vieira, Turner Big Mistake: Mari, Cedric, Willian, Lokonga, Nuno Tavares Reasoning: Lokonga and Tavares just didn't work out, basically immediately, so big mistake for me. Havertz (now 2 weeks after your post) is 10 goal contributions and is doing the job. Jesus, I think does the job, brings lots of players in and works super hard, but I think most of us want a 25-30 goal per season striker fed by Rice and Odegaard. Partey, I think is perfect, he's just regularly injured. Coming to the end of his time with us I'd imagine, I'd look to replace with Douglas Luiz, maybe. Trossard as perfect because he gets so many clutch goals for us and for so cheap, he's just brilliant!
@danhodson7187 Douglas Luiz also my number 1 replacement. We should've gone harder summer 2022 when he only had a year left. £25m late bid was never enough. Villa will understandably want 2-3 times that now.
@@matthewmillington-king1529 100% mate. They will look at us spending £100mil on Rice and Chelsea spending £100mil on Caicedo and believe (probably rightly) that they can expect the same for him. I can only assume is low-balling for him in 2022 was for FFP budgetary reasons. If they really believe he’s worth having and could afford then I think they would’ve done it. Maybe Zubamendi is the new budget friendly replacement?
Guys please hire a graphic designer/editor and create a visual graphic board embedded in the video so we can properly follow along when you categorize and/or rank football related things.
Jorginho out side of the mistake vs Spurs, he has been good for Arsenal. He had wonderful games like vs Liverpool, vs Newcastle @ James Park last season. For someone that only went for 12million. He does the job, same as Zinchenko.
The Ramsdale situation is one I’m torn on. The suggestion that he was in bad form and was therefore dropped is a narrative that is false. And if you look at the metrics David Raya is actually a lot worse than Ramsdale ever was for Arsenal.
difference is klopp was signing players to get europa league and top 4 with a much more limited budget. Arteta is signing players to supposedly win the league (Ramsdale, Raya, Jorginho, Trossard, Zincehnko etc)
Jorginho has been a decent signing based on performances alone, and when you factor in the transfer fee and the damage it may have done to Chelsea’s dressing room, I think it was a good signing
The lokonga shout was crazy I would say he should be the tier up I would definitely say the dury is out because I’ve watched him for Luton and besides Barkley he’s probably been the most impressive imo
This is why there should be an Arsenal man in that room. You guys didn't know Arteta came in to a different structure? He didn't make most of those signings. He became a "Manager" much later.
I’m sure this ranking will be very objective and well informed !

Why would you get the most delusional clapped fan base to talk about their own club?
@@Sibstajimjam1719I like your profile picture mate it’s good you’re proud to be in the gay fisting community, need more lgtb representation in football
Great at what exactly ?? You can’t seriously be of the opinion that these lads are great when it comes to departing expert football knowledge to ball. I here for a laugh 🤭
@@Sibstajimjam1719entertainment 😂😂sure you wouldn’t be here for any other reason. This channel is comedy more than sport related. That Rory fella and how he keeps a straight face whilst talking the s**t* that he does takes some doing. Has to be applauded 👏 and he on national radio. Just shows anyone no matter how little they know can succeed in life. 😊
@@Sibstajimjam1719because the hosts of this show are equally delusional and clapped but against arsenal, this ranking is pure nonsense lmao
23:30 Adams right he was brought in as a 3rd keeper and sold for profit a year later, not a bad signing at all
This aged well after jorginhos performance against liverpool
And kiwior or Havertz as well they’ve been good
Zinchenko in the bottom tier is a disgrace
Amazing how Rory can make almost everything about Chelsea...in almost every video: "you know it's like Chelsea back in 1956 when we..."
Honestly!
Duh I am the same what do you expect no you tell me I know your club started 5 years ago so your history is condensed in a small period😑
Arsenal do like buying the Chelsea rejects.
Imma spurs fan and the Arsenal hate in this is crazy, some players in some categroies are crazy, Zinchenko even the whole Ramsdale discussion I felt was so harsh
Why does Rory hate Fabio Vieira so much ☠️☠️☠️
Same reason that he hates common sense.
Most players Arteta has signed has had some reasoning behind it, He wanted a left footed CB so he got Mari, He wanted a back up GK so he got Turner, A creative midfielder that can cover positions so he got Vieira, a versatile RB so he got White and Tomi.
The bias just shines through from them and blinds them from making a neutral decision. Arteta also inherited a squad that couldn't play how he wanted so why would he not sign a lot of players to get them to where he wants them and we were also finishing 8th at the time so the top players wouldn't come hence the lesser signings to help get us back into contention for the bigger names
Buvey’s dislike for Ramsdale is mental, when man said Raya would elevate us to a next level whilst completely disregarding everything Rambo has done (TOTY GK last year btw) is unreal. Of course you’re gonna look worse when playing for crap sides of Sheff Utd and Bournemouth
He said himself that he can't stay focused for 90 minutes. That's shocking for a top level keeper.
Buvey is right. like it or not.
Well clearly Arteta agrees with Buvey 😂
Even if people prefer Raya idg how Rams isn’t a great signing. Brought us up levels for 30 mil and can be sold for at least 45-50 mil if he leaves this summer
Just because Raya is also shit doesn't mean Rammsdale isn't
Arteta gets disrespect because he’s arsenal manger, his first job as manager trying to break up 2 of the most dominant teams and managers the league has ever seen and he still gets criticised, the fact we’re even competing is a great step in the right direction
If spending 30m on ederson and winning the league is the barometer then everyones fucked
If clubs are allowed to cheat then their players shouldn't count.
When vieira does play he’s actually good
Good God ! are you sure.He's proper abysmal, lightweight, invisible player who will never make it in this league - £30mill for him is almost as bad as 65mill for the misfit Havertz...Christ!
No he's shocking - the very definition of the 'invisible' man...
@gspianoguitar4369 tell me you ball watch without saying you ball watch XD
@ACE360x I have no idea what you're talking about. Anyway Vieira will never make it in this league
I wouldn't say good, he's had some moments. Was bought as a prospect, had not worked out brilliantly so far. But not a stinker
Some of these decisions are ludicrous
Some of them made no sense to me. And THAT makes sense cuz you 3 are not arsenal fans lol
Zinchenko minimum in Jurys Out same with Kiwior. Kiwior has been average at best. Tomiyasu is at the same level as Ben White or IMO even better should be straight in in Perfect Signing. Jorginho has to be in Does the Job all day every day. Havertz for now has to be in Jurys Out, had couple useless games but had couple of decent games to.
Agreed with all of this and vierera also needs to be atleast jury’s out if not does the job
M. Turner was quite a good bussiness for Arsenal. Signed for 5M, sold for 15M as second goalkeeper.
Jorginho DOES THE JOB! To put him in mistake is crazy!! Ramesdale absolutely does the job. I can’t believe the city fan was saying mistake! Some of his saves last season were match winning saves! Arsenal will never see the best of Rambo now, because the pressure on him is unreal. He has to leave and everyone will see how good he is. I wish him all the best! You could say the same for Jesus! Absolutely love the guy, excellent player but it’s pains me to say, he has to go too. They both did the job to make us a better team but not top tier because there not good enough to win us the league
You guys HAVE to do this with Ten Hag. Would be hilarious 🙏🏼
I think your take on Fabio Vieira is harsh. I think the jury is out certainly, but he's one of the most technically gifted players in the squad and can pick out a pass better than most.
Zinchenko in "Big mistake" is mad. Yes he's not been great defensively since he has come in and it has really shown this season. But discounting his contributions last season in helping get us back in the top 4 seems a mistake. I'd put him in "Does the job" and Vieira, Havertz and Kiwior in "Jury's out"
He’s definitely a threat going forwards, but he’s almost a liability defensively.
Rory’s projecting his thoughts on Chelsea signings through this Arsenal list 😂
I think these type of discussions should only be done by supporters of the clubs, as they watch and know their better than most. There’s no point asking a Man City, Man United and a Chelsea fan who are best signings are, especially Adam and Buvey who hate Arsenal and use every chance to stick the boot in us
its truly pathetic how badly Rory slags off ex-Chelsea players who aren't English. especially when they contributed massively to winning the champions league. Only has an affinity for English players who are "Proper Chels" or the occasional foreign player who he feels puts in a shift.
Speant a lot yes, but look at the squad he got. Needed a complete clear out
The squad is barely equal to when he began... a good coach can make bad players better.. a good coach could of spent 0 and taken them to a better level... keep the delusions alive 😂
He won a trophy with the way worse squad then and failed with money and a better squad with no trophy on the horizon 4 years later
Exactly. Won the only trophy he has with the squad he got. They play better football now but it all about what you win at the end of the day. Nothing else
@@fplfieco22 he got a squad with a bunch of players already in there prime, and in massively in form auba, he now has an incredibly young squad with almost 0 people in there prime and they are still building. He’s taken us from an 8th place finish to being the clear 3rd best team in the league in his first ever managers job. Only reason everyone seems to think he should have done way more is because is cuz they know how good he is
@@tmithoth8956 So why has pep got one of the most expensive teams in europe and spent well over a billion at his time in man city all the best teams in the world spend massive amounts of money my guy.
Price of each signing should also be put in context. Cedric as a free transfer in 2020, when Arsenal are 14th in the table makes sense. The player will obviously not make sense for a team that is challenging after 2-3 years.
3:15, The sheer irony of that analogy with these 3 lads is hilarious.
Also failing to understand that Arteta changed from "1st Team Coach" to "Manager" in September 2020... tends to have a small effect on your input into a clubs transfer dealings.
Is so strange for me, I used to hate Adam on the kick off being an arsenal fan, he hated everyone and was negative. Now I’m sat here thinking he’s genuinely spot on with his positive approach to arsenal. This clip shows he sees it from the right angle. Buying turner for 3rd keeper or Jorge as a cheap backup cdm with experience
Rory needs to take his Chelsea goggles off. I think Jorginho was a great signing for the money. Brings experience to a young midfield, has experience in Europe and does a job when called upon. Decent squad player
I think the overall quality of the signings improved once Raul Sanllehi left the club, it was his strategy to work with agents and try to find "great deals" rather than to look at how players would fit into the squad. Sanllehi's structure was that he takes care of signings and Arteta works with what he is given, there was a massive disconnect. The structure now has Edu making signings but very much in partnership with Arteta. You can argue Sanllehi only was responsible for two signings that really worked out for us... William Saliba and Gabriel Martinelli and Martinelli was apparently due to all the work and influence of Edu rather than Sanllehi.
Partey is a 10/10 if not for his 40 year old legs
How has Adam become the resonable person on this channel, bro actually speaks with logic nowadays.
Trossards last goal he literallly didnt cut in. Rory talk shit with so much confidence 💀
Quite dangerous to insensate that Partey isn’t available due to off field issues when he’s been injured.
Raya and ramsdale have 8 pl clean sheets combined which is the most clean sheets for any club.. Its a proven success :D they are partners in crime haha 😊
Rory calling Havertz, this aged well after Sunday’s game. Was a nightmare for konate and VVD. Been playing really well even just before his first goal. Just needs to get a it more calmer in front of goal
Turner and Trusty were commercial signings and we made money on them both
Vieira has been a failure unfortunately. Ramsdale will depend on what we get in sell on value
Arteta made the keeper issue. Had he made Martinez number one after fa cup win wouldn't have had all this. Signed too many keepers that haven't worked. Turner, Runarson, Ramsdale, Raya. 4 keepers in 4 years is madness. Top sides sign a top keeper and stick
Jesus and Zinchenko were great signings considering we signed them without having Champions League football, we should be attracting better players going forward
Jesus has been a great signing for them.
Lads bare minimum effort to get your editor to make a tier list graphic ffs
I would change:
Does the Job - Jorginho, Turner, Mari
Jury's Out - Vieira, Havertz
Perfect Signing - Trossard
Zinchenko is between Perfect Signing and Does the Job
What a hot take on Matt Turner from Rory. Turner was signed as a back up likely for commercial reasons (American market) and sold on for a profit. He's now a starting GK in the Premier League albeit for a poor side and he's a starter for his national team. It's a fine deal for me.
Horrendous take from Rory on Vieira. Has the same G/A as Enzo this season and has started 20 games less. Has higher G/A per 90 than Hojlund, Jackson, Nkunku, Szoboszlai, and Darwin. He gets a goal or assist almost every single time he plays. He is just getting started. Injury didn't help this season. Is he the greatest player wesigned? No of course not. But Rory football IQ clearly -40 for this take. Also Jorgi and Zinny have been great for us. Maybe next time get an actual fan of the club on yeah? Adam being the voice of reason just proves this list was made out of bitterness (Rory ranking all ex-Chelsea players as failures lmao) and people who clearly don't watch Arsenal. Love the videos you make so thank you for that but it's not really fair not getting a fan of the club to have input. Maybe having one or two more categories might help in between the jurys out and bad and between jurys out and does the job.
I'm struggling with the view on Martin O. To say he goes missing in the big 6 games... We've not lost a game against the big 6. (depending on whether you class Newcastle as top 6)
I agree - we need to see more, but I feel that he makes sacrifices in big games to keep us in the game.
6:25 Fabio Viera is atrocious? That's not true.🤦🏽♀️ These are the worst people to discuss Arsenal 🤦🏽♀️
This aged really well 😂
These guys actually get paid and on TV too. I'm shocked.
Jury's out is always applicable especially when the player has just switched teams because its a new system, new tactics etc. but Rory doesn't know ball so not surprised. with the data seen on KDB and salad for Chelsea they would've written them off, but a different team and system literally changed their careers
mstt turner goes in top tier was signed from mls and flipped for profit whilst puttin in decent performances and only conceding one goal against man city and a coouple good europa league games as well as earned himself a sport in the world cup and then scammed forest top tier. was also so enthusiastic and made everyone happy and laugh in the dressing room
Zinchenko, Jorginho, Vieira and Havertz "big mistakes" hahahahaha!
It just shows how oblivious and ignorant these folks are. I can give a decent review of rival team better than they just did.
When Rory says “I’d go as far as to say…”
You KNOW a ridiculous statement is coming
the obsession with arsenal is crazy
Do you watch the news at all. Obsession with arsenal. I a Utd fan. Who you think get more media attention ??? Yous a better team so you should as should Liverpool and city and have the league at this stage but cop on. It not even close when it comes to who they talk about the most
Your an arsenal fan ye ?? You not think your search history might have something to do with the videos you been advised to watch. Most talked about thing to do with arsenal is the fan channels
cry bro
@@cully84
First words starting off pablo mari Brazilian centre back when man is Spanish
Even with Partey being injured, in the game vs City, he lobbed a perfect ball onto Tomiyasu during the buildup to the goal.
This video is hilarious 😂😂😂
How often they say about the quantity of signings and the cost... failing to mention the comparisons in the same time frame of United, City and Chelsea...
This show has because a complete parody 😂😂 its become clear football isnt for you lads
There should be a 'gross misconduct' section for Havertz. It's not a mistake if you can clearly see he was abysmal for his former club for 3 years.
But Havertz is brilliant for Arsenal. Not Arteta's problem that managers before him failed to utilize him correctly.
22:38 Damn, Matt Turner. I always saw him as a good second choice keeper.
I’m a Chelsea fan so I don’t have the best knowledge of Arsenal ..but I would have love to see Ben white on CB .. I remember when I think it was the euros and everyone was saying how impressed they were with rookie Ben White on centre back, and I was very excited to see what he was gonna do but it’s like Colwill some of his stuff is taken away when it gets put on the wing. Also, I would love Ramsdale on Chelsea, I think Petrovic doing a good job but I think Ramsdale is a lot better than Arteta rates …I’m sorry I don’t get Raya
I love these 3. Going in on Jorgehino and fabio viera was harsh. Adam I appreciate you trying to get Havertz up from the bottom category
You guys acting like Ramsdale's career is over is just crazy. Probably won't work out at Arsenal, but he's still very young and has a lot ahead of him.
Zinchenko as a huge mistake for 25M is nuts. Yea, he’s not a long term solution, but he was really good last season and was a part of their ascendancy.
I'm super glad you added a table so we can see it visually. good job, keep it up
Arteta has literally built the second most valuable team in the world! They are talking about Arteta’s signings like they are Ten Hag’s
I stopped listening to what Buvey said after he said Peter Crouch deserves to be in the Prem hall of fame over Matt Le Tissier
As an Arsenal fan:
Perfect signing: Gabriel, Partey Odegaard, White, Jesus, Rice, Trossard, Zinchenko
Does the job: Ramsdale, Tomiyasu, Kiwior, Jorginho, Vieira
Jury's out: Timber, Turner
Big Mistake: The rest
Wow Jesus and zinchenko aren’t perfect signings. You need a new striker and left back as they aren’t good enough. They are back up players if you want to win the league
Not having an Arsenal fan for some balance was mad.
The Real List:
Perfect: Rice, Jesus, Gabriel, Odegaard, White
Does (or Did) The Job: Ramsdale, Turner, Partey, Tomiyasu, Trossard, Jorginho, Kiwior, Zinchenko, Ceballos
Jury's Out: Havertz, Timber, Raya, Fabio Vieira, Lokonga, Nuno Tavares.
Big Mistake: Mari, Cedric, Willian
Your list is infinitely better than theirs, but my tweaks would be:
Perfect: Rice, Gabriel, Odegaard, White, Partey, Trossard
Does (or Did) The Job: Ramsdale, Tomiyasu, Jorginho, Kiwior, Zinchenko, Ceballos, Havertz, Jesus
Jury's Out: Timber, Raya, Fabio Vieira, Turner
Big Mistake: Mari, Cedric, Willian, Lokonga, Nuno Tavares
Reasoning: Lokonga and Tavares just didn't work out, basically immediately, so big mistake for me. Havertz (now 2 weeks after your post) is 10 goal contributions and is doing the job. Jesus, I think does the job, brings lots of players in and works super hard, but I think most of us want a 25-30 goal per season striker fed by Rice and Odegaard. Partey, I think is perfect, he's just regularly injured. Coming to the end of his time with us I'd imagine, I'd look to replace with Douglas Luiz, maybe. Trossard as perfect because he gets so many clutch goals for us and for so cheap, he's just brilliant!
@danhodson7187 Douglas Luiz also my number 1 replacement. We should've gone harder summer 2022 when he only had a year left. £25m late bid was never enough. Villa will understandably want 2-3 times that now.
@@matthewmillington-king1529 100% mate. They will look at us spending £100mil on Rice and Chelsea spending £100mil on Caicedo and believe (probably rightly) that they can expect the same for him. I can only assume is low-balling for him in 2022 was for FFP budgetary reasons. If they really believe he’s worth having and could afford then I think they would’ve done it. Maybe Zubamendi is the new budget friendly replacement?
Guys please hire a graphic designer/editor and create a visual graphic board embedded in the video so we can properly follow along when you categorize and/or rank football related things.
Hearing Rory bashing arsenal signings is a little ironic considering how much money Chelsea have thrown at signings hoping something will stick
Jorginho out side of the mistake vs Spurs, he has been good for Arsenal. He had wonderful games like vs Liverpool, vs Newcastle @ James Park last season. For someone that only went for 12million. He does the job, same as Zinchenko.
The Ramsdale situation is one I’m torn on. The suggestion that he was in bad form and was therefore dropped is a narrative that is false. And if you look at the metrics David Raya is actually a lot worse than Ramsdale ever was for Arsenal.
False, Raya has been excellent
Look at klopps first signings. Some signing early on are stop gap signings. They have to be made
difference is klopp was signing players to get europa league and top 4 with a much more limited budget. Arteta is signing players to supposedly win the league (Ramsdale, Raya, Jorginho, Trossard, Zincehnko etc)
not to even mention the big 70 mil german elephant in the room who is the highest paid player at the club
@@SopranoLFC I'm talking about early arteta signings. I think they were too harsh
FYI Gabriel is not his or Edu's signing. It was Francis Cagigao's.
Also Gabriel has improved because he is next to Saliba.
Jorginho has been a decent signing based on performances alone, and when you factor in the transfer fee and the damage it may have done to Chelsea’s dressing room, I think it was a good signing
The lokonga shout was crazy I would say he should be the tier up I would definitely say the dury is out because I’ve watched him for Luton and besides Barkley he’s probably been the most impressive imo
Adam was correct it was Ben Foster that spoke about United taking football "too seriously"
Rory is definitely an Arsenal fan at heart, over 50% of his content is the gooners now lol
He was born in North London mate all he knows is Arsenal being top dogs it is kind of like PTSD😂
Each have certain Arsenal players rent free in their head:
Adam: Partey
Rory: Fabio Viera, Jorginho & Kai
Buvey: Ramsdale & Zinny
Rory, I love arsenal, Havertz is my favorite player for Arsenal. I’m in love with that man.
This is why there should be an Arsenal man in that room. You guys didn't know Arteta came in to a different structure? He didn't make most of those signings. He became a "Manager" much later.
So to conclude, went from 8th to 2nd to only city and every signing was a mistake. Nice one lads. As ill-informed as anything Buvy puts his name to
nah jorginho rating shows you dont watch arsenal like that. for a guy brought since arsenal lost out on caicedo he's done the job absolutely
