Arsenal FC Supporters Thread - 2026/27 Season (Gold Badge Edition)

Worst kept secret.

We finally have our midfield thug. The rest can just bomb forward now. I guess this means Zubimendi becomes our new Norgaard?

I'm hoping Arteta rotates a lot more now. No reason Zubimendi can't get plenty game time still

We're really just not trying in preseason, are we?

I think not getting stupid injuries would be a lot higher on the list than winning.

Arteta gotta be very happy with Tzolis this preseason

Looks like a massive upgrade on Trossard, never mind a replacement.

I guess the weather doesn't help things. It's 30C in London today.

Won our own trophy again, nice.

That's how to start a season

Arsenal win - preseason friendly
City win - league favourites

Easy game

 

[The Voice]

Good start! Incredible pass by MLS, and a tidy finish, too.

Currently watching a Chinese stream, because they finally decided that £30 a month would be a good price to charge for the Community Shield. It used to be free on ITV. And my favourite streaming site has been seized.

Arsenal win - preseason friendly
City win - league favourites

It's a curious stat. I see that the winner of the the Community Shield since 92 has been the previous years league winner 18 out of 34 times. I think it more shows that the league is just difficult to win, nevermind defending the title

Waka waka eh eh

King Kai and Tzolis combine
