Word is AirPods was Ajax's first choice but rejected them cuz he had "unfinished business" with Arsenal, and they'll be back for him in the summer. No clue how reliable the source is though.
Now I'm sad
It gets me thinking - everything Arteta is building, I hope it's all built to last. I'd hate for either this current crop of players to age out, or him to leave, and it all fall apart.
Obviously we all feel we haven't yet peaked, but I just don't want us to be playing Emery ball or rocking geriatric Sokratis in a decade from now
He definitely seems to be focused on having younger players in the hopper. He's a smart guy and has learned from the likes of ~~Arsenal~~ Arsene and Pep. Hopefully people like Mertersaker stick around for a while too.
Edit: damn it autocorrect!
Arsenal Wenger, manager of Arsene FC :)
