Oh,

0:00.8

All right.

0:14.0

What a lot of

0:17.7

The area,

0:19.4

All right.

0:34.8

Possibilities here. And the second. Oh, the one. Arsenal are doing Arsenal are doing.

This is the Arsenal vision Vision Postmatch podcast.

0:39.4

My name is Elit Smith, you can black man, Twitter, Yankee Gunner.

0:41.4

Yeah, Arsenal are doing the transfers. The window has slammed open. That's right. The transfer window slams shut. Do you know it can slam open? Well, it has slammed open, damn it. And Arsenal are doing the business. Now you don't have to like all the business, but hopefully you will like some of the business,

0:36.8

and we will debate what of the business we like and what of the business may be remaining

0:40.7

and what that business means for our prospects this weekend and beyond. And more than anything, what we want to do is just thank you for being here. You don't have to like the Otagard signing or the Ramsdale signing. You can love both. You can feel mediocre about either one. but I hope you love us because we definitely love you. And thank you for being here. And it's Chelsea at the weekend. And I have to breathe a heavy sigh given the fact that this would have been a weekend spent with actual real people in person in Las Vegas celebrating the start of the new season. But under the circumstances, maybe it's best that we're all apart from each other doing it hermetically sealed over a digital universe where we exist these days. Tim's on Twitter, sober-ah-ho. Hello there. Pause on Twitter, pause my pants, hold pause. Woo-hoo. Woo-hoo, indeed. So the window has slammed open, my friends, and through that open window has flown one Martin Otagard and one Aaron Ramsdale, or at least they

record this as though it's happening, I'm going to be really, really furious. But let's take

1:53.4

them in order. And we'll start with Martin Otagard. It is a period, Tim, of fairly strong

1:59.9

frustration with the club in some segments of the fan base.

2:03.1

And I think it's fair to say that there's some concern, some despondency, some questions

2:08.7

about what Adu does, whether Artet is the right guy. And given all that, I think it is equally

2:13.8

important to be intellectually consistent and give the club some freaking credit when they deserve it. Because I felt at the start of this window that it was a

2:21.5

little naive to spend the whole summer chasing Martin Odegaard as their number one option,

2:25.9

watching Buendia go, watching O'R sit there at 20 million euro, chasing James Madison for

2:31.9

60 million pounds. And is the right price, the wrong price.
