Episode Notes
In this episode I give Arteta, Edu, and his Technical team their flowers for what has been a strategic shift in the way Arsenal do their business in the transfer market and how this will change the way they play. Arsenal football club have been a laughing stock in England and European football at large and this turn around, while at its earliest of stages has been sobering and refreshing. These two much maligned men (Edu & Arteta) are no strangers to being doubted or having to prove themselves as their careers as players showed. They did not have a straight-forward path to the top of European football that many of their fellow countrymen do. They had to make multiple stops along the way in a journey man-like fashion. I am excited to see how this summer unfolds as well as the 2020/21 season. The incoming young players coupled with securing the top talents from the Hale End based club academy is proving to be awesome as both a technical and business approach.
