- Hello everyone and welcome back to Inside Arsenal.
In today’s show I give my thoughts on what Arsenal might do on the back of Benjamin Sesko’s decision to stay at RB Leipzig, giving an update on interest in Joshua Zirkzee. I also discuss Chido Obi Martin’s future and Bukayo Saka’s return from injury.
0:00 - Intro
1:35 - Sesko signs deal
4:05 - Zirkzee interest
7:35 - Chido battle
9:41 - Luiz to Juve
12:30 - Sesko reaction - Sport
I would break the bank for Kudus, really like Olise too .
Lets get Xavi Simons in for a further goal threat and a defensive midfielder who will allow Rice and Odegard to operate further forward.
Keeping my fingers crossed for that Arsenal shirt ❤
HIGH WATTAGE ⚡⚡⚡
WATTS UP!

7:18 I absolutely, 100% agree with you. If you can't find the no. 9 you really want then invest the money in a wide man instead. We can always go in for Sesko (apparently pronounced Shesko) next summer.
I was told “shesh-ko”
@@TwistedSoul2002 I think you are right :) (though i can't see Charles changing his pronunciation, he hasn't shown any inclination to do so in the past, lol)
Who is the wide man tho? The market ain’t great there either
There literally 2 similar S letters and you think they are pronounced differently?
Fact: everyone who thinks Sesko was the main plan and now club has to decide on a different name is fool. Sesko interest could be a Chelsea bait. All options including Zirkzee, Osimhen , Sesko has been worked through simultaneously. Nothing bad happened to club’s planning.
Nice wrk Watts,, we should not let that young talent to leave
Hi Charles, congrats again on the 100k mark, well deserved.
Personally I'm not the slightest bit worried about Sesko, the window isn't even open. I personally believe almost every player on the market would prefer a move to Arsenal over almost every other side in Europe, so I think Edu would have his priorities and he'll have no trouble with them. Looking forward to seeing what he's been cooking.
Cheers
Thank you for regularly reading out my quotes and answering my questions, Charles.... I really like the way you always interact with your "100,000 subscribers."
Onwards and upwards towards your next 100,00!!!
Hey @Charles I still stick with my opinion that our priority should be a right winger and a number 6. Saka can't keep doing this year in and out, for a couple of seasons we have seen his form dip at the end of the season due to him being spent. We should concentrate more on selling as many players as possible; Tierney, Lokonga, Nelson Tavares, Maquinos, ESR, Ramsdale, Nketiah and maybe Partey.
I agree highly with the RW. My only query would be is whether Nwaneri comes in as his backup. He’s clearly talented and isn’t being loaned so now needs minutes. I feel he might start playing in cups and sub appearances
I feel like the chidi/chido thing is becoming a meme now 😂
Would love to see it continue
Absolutely wait until next year for a striker and invest heavily in a winger and midfielder this summer. Isak will be there in a years time :) cheers
I agree with you fully... better they wait for sesko for next summer.. for now they need a big addition an upgrade for martineli.
If we don’t get a new striker this summer that is fine. We just signed a #9 last summer and he did pretty well in his first season. I expect even more next season as he learns the team, Waka Waka.
Hey Charles,
What's your opinion about keeping Tierney for next year as a direct replacement (in terms of squad numbers) for Cedric. We all know how good of a player he is, he can play lb or lcb, plus he is a fan favorite and has elite mentality. We also have enough quality players at the back if he gets injured. I think that having a solid defensive player like Tierney also enables Arteta to maybe experiment with Zinchenko as a left sided 8, utilizing his penetrative passing and minimizing the damage due to his lapses in concentration.
This would conclude business in defense, and Edu can then focus on getting proper quality in midfield and upfront. With the measly amount of 10 million doing the rounds in the news as the price, surely it makes more financial sense for Arsenal to keep him instead of spending another 30 million on a left sided defender like Hato who might take time to settle.
Please let me know what you think!!
Crazy idea.... raid palace. Wharton, Eze and olise for Smith Rowe, nketiah, Nelson swap plus cash?
Our no2 choices work out better than our 1st choice in transfer windows trossard & Raya come to mind trust the process 👍
ARSENAL should get Gyökeres now, or Watkins,Kudus, and i really need Olise at our Team to.
Really think we should put our focus on a blockbuster midfielder because with Rice and odegaard we have such amazing profiles to dominate games with the right addition in there, I actually our striking options between Havertz and Jesus, both fighters who will give 100% and jesus did have his injury issues A completely fit and pain free Jesus is such a slept on player
Agreed on a fit Jesus and hopefully a 25 game fit Partey in the league
WATTS UP charles i liked ur little cameo in toms video today!
What is wrong with our own players. Why do we have an academy
No one says we must buy
We have
mika
cosier duberry and nwaneri
Promote them.
THX Charles
There is no need to panic. Let's trust the process.
For how yrs we trust this process ?
For century ?🤔
Arsenal is annoying 😡
If we go for Bruno G, I will take this owners seriously unless they are joking.
😂😂if this club is such a big joke find yourself another club😢@wisdom21all
@@jermainejackson6617 I find it, it is Arsenal in Arsene era.
Sesko is potential, don't think we should wait, get Gyökeres now, or Watkins
It is surprising that nobody is really talking about getting a cover for MØ as much as the popular cravings for saka competition.
If odegaard is injured,i bet that may affect the team ambition than expected.
The one and only highest Wattage!!!!!!!!!!!
Sesko was a interesting case, due to the release clause and form at the end of last season. However, your point about the amount of goals scored last season. I think this highlights that arsenal don't need an outstanding polished no9. With the recent success in "big 6" games I think the experience from this can help the current group of players manage tougher games next season.
Zirkzee is a transfer i could get excited by. Looks like a quality player
I have a question Charles. More of a thought provoking one then reality. If we signed Osimhen, would there be a formation we could change too, that would still allow Kai to play in the team (without wasting him in the left 8 role) Id be interested in hearing you and Benji discuss, again purely and intellectual one, as i see no chance of a formation change or Osimhen coming in.
Certainly. It's must be a priority
+1 on the side of now looking for the best option of an attacking forward, but not necessarily a 9 if a good one can't be got. Like most I'm disappointed in not getting Sesko, but as far as going back for him down the road, certainly possible I guess, but who knows who the next big thing/want will be. I hope that "gentleman's agreement" thing works out for him, but you always are wary that if it isn't in writing it isn't real.
I know we need an extra wide player but fitting everyone in with that gets pretty difficult. Saka plays every minute he's fit and we aren't winning by several goals. So on the left there is 1 starting spot for Martinelli, Trossard, new guy, Jesus. That feels a bit bloated.
I wonder if Mikel will try and move Trossard inside this year now we are looking at a winger. He doesn't really fit as the LW in this system but when you need a goal you want him on the pitch. Left 8/9 is sort of the only position that's free.
We need to ball out and get Osimhen or Watkins .. show dominance
Dude villa are not gonna sell Watkins..and they are not gonna pay 120 mill on osimhen..
We need a world class player, or a young one with WC potential. Watkins is certainly neither of those.
I have CZcams playing all day, and you’re still the first thing on my subscriptions. Sir Charles Watts don’t play ⚡️
C.W as for me I don't think arsenal missed out on sesko,he didn't move that's all,he did accepted arsenal but I think that was the last decision between him and his camp
Greetings Charles great work keeping us informed on a daily basis with the world of arsenal. Not trying to be negative but with regards to Chido, I think it's best we sell him, especially now that he's gathering some traction, because realistically speaking, I don't think he'll play in the PL, knowing Arteta and what he's trying to achieve whrg the club, there's no point giving him a contract without having any potential future plans for him, so I think it's best he continues his career elsewhere.
Dave from Nigeria
I would look at the feyanoord stricker. Always thought he looked good. Plus hes young too.
Hello charles .. we had link last summer with Gundogan and Mount for L8 position , is there any link to Xavi Simons ? Is his agent close to arsenal ?
NEED a no.9… No, but it would be good to get one. I think backup for Saka is absolutely necessary, Diaby would have been a good backup we missed out on. I think Arsenal should take that striker money and get Guimarães and then see what happens after that.
We need a v good #8 on the left &/or as Odegarrd alternative , for rotation or God forbids if he's injured
IMO we just need a game changer in the team. That could be a 9, a LW or even a no 8. I know KDB type players are few and far between but a player of his calibre can chage a game even if the forwards aren't doing the business and its that sort of player who can get you over the line all by themself that we need. Last time we had someone like that was Alexis Sanchez and again he wasn't a no.9.
Not overly bothered with Sesko decision. I agree we need a winger more than a striker. Sell Eddie, move ESR back on the left wing, Havertz, Jesus, and Trossard can cover striker, so priority should be RW. My shout would be Bakayoko from PSV. add Quinten Timber, or Khephren Thuram and keep Partey and Ramsdale another season.
Next summer can go in for a striker, Hato, and Neves
❤❤❤
Bro said "the foden x smith rowe role" LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
To pay an exceptional price for an exceptional talent is not just reasonable, it’s logical. If we were to lose Chido because we capped his wage because he’s young it would mean losing a potential 100m plus forward for pennies in this market. At least we should match what the market is offering. News was that we would focus on bringing in top quality youth talent but we must first protect what we have.
Hi Charles! Sesko said no, so what is going to happen to Eddie? I think we all agree that it is a perfect timing to move him on and sign someone else with a different quality. Now we don't get Sesko or isak, i would go all strength To Rodrigo from real, this boy is a quality and i am sure he will challenge Saka really well. My perfect summer signings would be Rodrigo, Guimares and (keep Partey bcs Elneny is going) A keeper if Ramsdale goes.
I know it doesn’t make for great content but I love that Arsenal are in a place where we can trust the manager to make the right decision.
Right now we have Havertz, Jesus, and trossard who can all play the #9 role. Personally I’d love to see isak or kudus but spending big money on a striker is a waste if arteta isn’t willing to play jesus on the RW.
Hi There, Fan from Singapore. IF we can't get a no 9, does that mean Eddie Nketiah will be staying? I think recruiting a high scoring right winger that can play as a CF will not be a bad idea. Jeremie Frimpong? We need cover for Saka. Getting a no 6 or DM is crucial..... Is Douglas Luis not interested to come Arsenal anymore? We are a top club and should only consider players who wants to play for us!
Hi Charles. Do you think our interest in Sesko was a bit over exaggerated in the media/social media? It didn't seem like a deal was very close -- perhaps a good distraction so that Arsenal could focus on other targets?
The challenge with signing a back up for Saka is; 1) no player wants to come knowing they have limited game time & 2) the club will be stuck with a player who isn't playing enough so would be forced to sell at a price lower than they originally bought him for
This is why rashford would be an incredible signing, can play anywhere in the front 3.
@@matthewmorrison9255 Rashford is a great option no doubt, but it makes no financial sense to meet his high wages knowing club won't use him that much
I would go for Nico Williams but apparently he's already on around £180000 per week @ Atletico Bilbao and i don't think Arsenal will match that after paying his £42 million release clause
Hi Charles. Couldn't Nwaneri be Saka's understudy this season? I know he's played RW for England but not sure what his best position is and if he's ready for more minutes.
Hey Charles, i wouldn’t buy a striker unless we find the perfect fit for us. I would buy 2 wingers, LW and RW and move ESR LW, and Trossard, Gabri Jesus and Haverts be our strikers.
Arsenal should go all in for Olise or Eze, a player that can do for Arsenal what Doku does for City
Happy Wednesday 🎉
I trust Edu Arteta and the board in my opinion they will come up with the players we need surprise could be on the cards TRUST THE PROCESS
Question for you Charlie boy; when our young players on the bench miss out on a Saturday game then the under 23’s have a game the following day, do they get game time with that team?
I would love more money put into a winger. Any chance we go for Leao?
Priority should really be a RW or CAM for Saka and Ode, we’ve taken advantage of their injury-free run last season and there’s no real back up for them since Viera and Nelson don’t play. LW and ST all have *credible* rotation options
Arsenal have done pretty well signing our 2nd choice players. e.g. Trossard and Zinchenko.
Many agents need to follow the thinking pattern of Sesko's in that you prioritise your client's development over the money a transfer can bring in!
When it comes to the #9 situation, I don't think it's much of an issue especially since there are more pressing matters IE cover for Saka which is more important imo especially given how much Kai is going to improve next season considering what happened this season. Personally, I think Chido would be wise to stay because right now he seems to have the clearest pathway to first team football over there unlike Bayern where he has to contend with Kane and Tel whereas here it's only Kai.
Hello Charles, hope this text isn't late for Tomorrow's video.
Otherwise, what do you think about signing Mason Greenwood for the wideforward to give competition for Saka. I really think the lad is really a baller.
Kayumba (car-you-mba)
🇿🇲
Why is nobody taking about Ollie Watkins from villa? I think he’d be a great buy
How can there be a different rule in two UEFA countries for the age at which professional contracts can be offered? I thought it was all about a level playing field
I would definitely get a wide forward next season. I fully trust Kai to lead the line and score goals for us. Hoping Jesus's knee leaves him alone, and I'm sure he'll get back to his best.
Would rather we pivoted for an experienced number 9 to come in for 1/2 years to then go back in for Sesko in a year or 2
Bilbao can also pay high wages because they dont spend any money on transfer fees
Morning Charles, I like where we are now headed. Sesko who? I would much rather see us add a proven PL goal threat or creator to push our club to the summit. Eze, Olise, isak, Bowen, or even rashford. If we can unearth a gem from the continent - great, but we all know that doesn't always work out - at least not straight away.
We don’t need to force a 9 we have 3 players that can play there. We need to keep creating more and more chances and MØ & BS needs help in those positions and we’ll be fine.
Hi Charles, how do we know if you’ve contacted us about the draw for the shirts? Keep up the good work!
Well played Red Bull
Charles, biggest priority for Arsenal should be the no. 6 role. I'm a big Partey fan because of how great we look when he plays, but we need to plan for the future without him.
Havertz is turning into the #9 we like but we need an out and out 9, let's not kid ourselves. We need player that is ruthless infront of goal. A striker that doesn't need 4 chances in a game to score 1 goal. Unfortunately, neither Havertz or Jesus has that, although I believe Havertz is growing into that player but he needs competition. Gab Jesus is a front 3 option in mind, no longer a starter.
Hence that no.6 is the biggest priority, we need a ball- distributing, pressure soaking catalyst.
Do we absolutely need a nr9? No. Since early on in the season I have always been of the idea that we should prioritize another midfielder, with Partey's injuries, that position needs a direct replacement IF Rice is going to be playing left 8.
Zirkzee is quality lets get him
No point of convincing a player who wants to leave. Boi is 16 he should be great full he plays for Arsenal.
Why aren't arsenal going back for luiz? He would be a good midfield option. Frustating that a target is slipping away!
Hi Charles. The more you think about it should a number 9 actually be the priority? Havertz started 11 PL games upfront last season, scoring 8 goals and getting 6 assists. If he can keep up that form across a full season then that’s 27 goals. So we already have the number 9 most people are wanting us to sign. I’d be looking for a player who can play across the front line, thoughts on Kudus? PL proven and capable of scoring out of nothing which is something we need.
Hi Charles 👋, I hope all is good 👋 👦 ☺️ 👍 😊 🙏. At least Benjamin Sesko is staying at RB Leziq and not going to the Premier League for a season at least. Have a good day Charles 😂. Arsenal rocks 🏆 🙏 🤲 🪨 🎸 😎.
On the Sesko situation, we need to start behaving like Madrid. They find their target, hone in on them, sell them on the project and then wait instead of spending ridiculous amounts of money. Mbappe is a classic example.. even 3 yrs after the fact, nobody can argue that Madrid have struck gold. And it was never in doubt that he would only go to Madrid. They put their long term health ahead of short term gains.
@Charles what edu and arteta are doing is they looking for a ST Gimenez Sasko Gyökeres and Evanilson are the top targets i think for there Age for the style of play Zirkzee is a option but not on that top list. I can see this names staying for 1 more year at there clubs Gyökeres i think will stay Sasko is staying i think but we Will see how the market goes. Arsenal do like Tonay Watkins Solanke but they dont think that they are a good fit the Wing position is clear Nelson Nketiah will move out we Will go for a winger like Mane ore Sane who can play both wing position i can see a Rashford coming in he looks like he wants a move to Arsenal he is not happy at United. The time for Partey Lokonga Viera Smith-Rowe is over i dont see them staying 2 midfielders will be added Y.Fofana and Zubamendi ore Nico from Porto can be a good fit Bruno G not a type that will fit us i think
If eddie still has a arsenal squad number come the deadline im not gonna be pleased
Gentleman’s agreement 😆 no such thing…understand the decision and it will be interesting to see how he develops long term…we are fine at striker…I would be on board with a focus on big spending for midfield or wide attacking…
Lautaro Martínez 24 goals, new record season, hopefully Sesko was a decoy..
I never get worked up about these transfers. Truth is you never know. Could be agents spreading ''rumours'' so that they up the value of their client. Sometimes , it's the media and youtubers working us the fans to increase traffic. I now trust the club enough, to basically leave them to work.
I imagine Arteta will be searching for a left footed attacker. Odegaard , Havertz & Saka being the only attacking lefties.
I am all up for a top top winger (Kudus?)
Thanks for updates!
The problem with a gentleman’s agreement, is it’s not worth the paper it’s written on.
Just ask Hurry Kane about his agreement with Daniel Levy!
much better if we go after Kudus... strong attacker there
I hope I will be one of the lucky winnings
Gunners no need to panic Edu and Arteta have a perfect plan in place even though we may not know yet.
Surely Sesko realises the vacancy for a 9 will probably be filled and not available next year
I think if you're putting it simply - We've been scoring lots of goals, that's no issue. If you lose Trossard or Havertz to injury you've got someone behind them who can pick up the slack. If you lose Saka though...you're in trouble. We literally NEED a proper right winger, so a striker can wait unless a great opportunity comes up 👍
Chidi chidi Bang Bang. That's why Charles.
Hi Charles, what are your thoughts on Arsenal picking up Brahim Diaz from Real Madrid Rodrygo?
A new nr 9 is not necessarily. To find a left footed right winger that could challenge Saka and push him is necessary.
This is the one giveaway I would hope o have goo odds of winning lmao better than nothing
The Striker issue is funny as, given the likelihood that Havertz will be 1st Choice next year, trying to sign a £100m player seems futile.
I know it's popular to look at the linked players, but there are high-class, young players out there that could come in, contribute immediately and develop with the rest of the squad over the next 2 seasons. They include:
Fermin Lopez - Barcelona
Rayan Cherki - Lyon
Mathys Tel - Bayern Munich
Bradley Barcola - PSG
Elye Wahi - Lens
There are obviously many others as well.
It is the same with Saka. He's going to start on the Right of our attack in every match, if Arteta has his way. Who do we convince to join us in that position, with that in mind?
Forget Oshimen et al. Let's get a young, hungry No.9 in and stop all this chat about the need for a £100m player.
Charles, sorry to do this, it's only the x of June, etc, and accepting this is way too soon for this question: but given how important Arteta's new contract will be for the club and its transfer activities, when do you expect to start hearing about progress?
Given his stats, Zirkzee ok if positioned as a winger, not a #9 for Arsenal
Some links to Julian Alvarez any truth in that ? What would you think about that ?
