    I’m at the point with transfers that if Edu and Arteta want a player, then that is good enough for me. They have picked out enough talent and made some great signings that I’m happy to just let them do their thing without getting stressed about who/when we should buy.

    And anyone who does sign for us, I will cheer and back them 100%.

      We’ve consistently had more hits than misses at this point. Even the misses we might be able to offload and break even. The better the team does, the more it affords us to have a few duds here and there.

      We are probably the most engaged Reddit fanbase. Other subs have more users but I think we generally tend to have more activity than other subs, so it wouldn’t be surprising if we were kicking ass here too

        @joko @raulmedez this is where things get complicated. There are lots of servers running the lemmy software, each of which have their own communities. Someone could setup c/gunners on lemmy.ca just as you folks have setup on lemmy.world.

        The kicker is that you can use your lemmy.world account to follow any community on lemmy.ca.

      I have a secret weapon.

      If I forget I’ll just blame the mods for not automating it…

                Personally I like the way r/soccer did it which is having it move an hour every day so it starts at a different time each day with threads lasting for 23 hours.

                also yes the dim sum :D its good to be home again, though the heat…

          Sorry, real life rather rudely intruded oday and I haven’t got a Lemmy app.

          It’s not as slick as reddit but as I still mainly use old reddit it’s not too different.

          It really shows that for all Reddit tries to make things look cool and add paid for content, what actually makes it special is the amount of people using it. If everyone from r/gunners was on here there’s really no reason not to stay here and let reddit die.

    I went to the stadium / armoury yesterday to get the new shirt and decided to get the champions league patch on it to celebrate being back after so long out… terrible choice - the queue for shirt printing was over half an hour, they’ll definitely have more staff working it when the season starts, but be prepared to wait if you want it done in person!

      @vizhal007 @Mijn_Bergkamp it’s a bit janky. You find the community by entering gunners@lemmy.world into the search box on mastodon, then following it.

      You then see what’s posted in your feed, and can reply to individual posts or their replies. You can’t post on lemmy (as far as I can tell) from mastodon.

    I sort of feel like we’re missing the hot takes so… I really don’t ahve an issue with chasing Castagne.

    He seems solid, the Belgians still play him and literally no one has come out of the Leicester defence with looking good so I’m prepared to say it might not be his fault.

    Remember Ramsdale was relegated twice.

          I think Lokonga is still gonna be good, we just improved faster than him unfortunately. You don’t get made captain at 21 if you’re not good. Hoping we send him on loan again next season to get regular game time.

                  Clearly Kompany as a City legend told us to sign him to sabotage our title run /j Sambi’s gonna be pretty decent and I’ll be surprised if he doesn’t become a significant part of the Belgian national team eventually, just not yet

    Outside of football news, gutted I had to cancel my ps5 order. So many decent looking games coming out

      Sorry to hear that. It is definitely worth it whenever you get the chance, but perhaps it might be worth waiting a little bit to see if they announce a ps5 pro? Heard some rumours it isn’t too far into the future.

    Ngl, I miss both r/gunners on reddit and especially r/soccer. When the Mhhbop news broke my instinct was to go there. A shame they weren’t available but a necessary shame

      Never forget this is entirely down to reddit being dicks

    How much do you reckon the user count can go up today / tomorrow with the blackout? Can we get to 500?

      The problem is that unless people saw the post about Lemmy prior to the blackout, it’s not likely that they’d find it on their own… I don’t think we’re going to see a huge growth spurt over the next few days
