Burnley fan checking in here.
I’m a masochist. So, obviously I support Arsenal.
Crap. This is the first I’ve heard about it. Figures. Yes, now I’m definitely worried it won’t happen. This is how it goes every year for Arsenal transfers though. They excite fans with these small feelers to good players, and when their bids are easily turned down, they settle for sub-par signings. Maybe not always the case, but generally it feels that way (Lemar, Buendia, Dembele, Suarez for example).
Arsenal. You lot really want Sambi Lokonga?
Fuck knows. We’ve been linked with approximately 5 billion players already this summer.
As a fellow Gooner, it’s pretty clear Sambi’s got loads of potential, he just is not far enough along developing it to be immediately useful to the process. Especially after this season just ended, where we’re that much further ahead of where we thought we’d be - we just can’t be spending the minutes on developing a player like that. Burnley under Kompany would be great for him, I think.
I grew up in the 90s in the South West of England so I’m naturally a Manchester United fan ;)
Also a season ticket hold for my local team in Wales which is a great fun
Leeds United here.
FC Cincinnati if we’re going beyond EPL.
Ah I hadn’t even thought to name teams from other leagues.
I have a soft spot for Seattle Sounders ever since picking them as my team for a fifa tournament many years ago. My mate bought me a Sounders shirt with Dempsey on the back after I scored a wonder goal with him.
Similarly, got a soft spot (and replica shirt) for Chievo Verona after playing as them for on LMA Manager (remember that?).
My Father introduce me to EPL when The Special One start to dominate EPL with Chelsea. So yeah, I support Chelsea FC.
