    Arthur and Mark give an insight behind the scenes at Wrexham, from 2 touch to goalie wars! Arthur shares his Arsenal journey with some never heard before stories, takes part in a new instalment of Goalie or No Goalie and gives a very special glove review on the brand new Adidas 98 Barthez Pro Goalkeeper Gloves which are inspired by the iconic glove that Barthez wore in the 1998 World Cup, but with a modernized look and updated tech, curtesy of Pro Direct!

    Saw your episode in Welcome to Wrexham. A tremendous amount of respect for goal keepers. You are a class man. Best of Luck with everything and as usual this is a wonderful interview.

    Okonkwo is an absolute machine, couple of the saves vs Crewe were ridiculous. Hope he stays (Soz Mark)

    Thought it was right to highlight, Arthur spent plenty of time with numerous young supporters last Saturday against Salford during his warm-ups 👏
    Definitely making an effort with the fans.
    Hope this season continues positively for him & yourself Mark.

    Nice one Chomp! This guy's persona reminds me of myself, I bet he's experienced what I have where people think because I'm so chilled out that I don't care about things as much as other people or haven't got that competitive edge you need to win. I wish him all the best in his career. See you both at the Racecourse. Just seen that he's got the same birthday as me too, gone up even higher in my estimation!

    Never knew about all the technical aspects of gloves....and I thought you had the same pair more or less all season, lol! Interesting with Arthur's ritual of a new pair every game. If I played a blinder in a game and made umpteen worldies, I'd want to keep em for the next game too...surely they're not _that_ flimsy 🤷‍♂

    Arthur Okonkwo choose to play for Nigeria 🇳🇬 Eagles your career would go far with international Exposure and I'm sure you'll definitely be the No1 keeper easily AFCON and possibly a world cup appearance beckons,Think about this.

    Do you think Arthur would want to stay after this season? Does he have much say in it or does Arsenal get to decide?

    @EverGameStudios 8 месяцев назад +1

    So, we had injured number one keeper, then we brought in Foster who took first choice, then he left and we got Arthur as first choice.
    now, not saying anything bad about him, I think he's great, and his young if we can keep him after loan as a permanent transfer that would be awesome, but on the other end, you (Haward) are also a great keeper, and I don't see why don't we see you more on the pitch, maybe at least one of you cover league matches and the other cover cup matches, but why do you think you keep staying as second choice instead of coming up for first choice?
    in my opinion from what I seen you play, you are a great keeper on your own. yes you in your twilite years career wise, have no clue if you going to stay after this season, but wouldn't you want to at least have some good play time before you are done?

      Thanks for your message. I absolutely love playing week in week out but sometimes especially as a gk that is not always possible. Only one of us can play. As a senior goalie I understand this more than most so my job when not in the team is to support whoever is playing and the team.
