## Resource

Pete and Matt, Wednesday morning UK time. Morgan Rogers is a Chelsea player. The announcement video has already been roasted. And actually? The lads are fine. Here's what's inside: 🔥 Hottest of Takes — Matt is suddenly very excited about Ethan Nwaneri. He's been in the gym, he's been in the England camp, and Matt makes the Myles Lewis-Skelly comparison that's going to make a lot of people feel a lot better about the summer. Pete's take is about Arsenal's valuation discipline and why walking away from overpriced targets is actually the Man City playbook 😂 Chelsea's Announcement Video — "Joined the biggest club in London." Pete and Matt go through it frame by frame. It is not good. The Eze announcement comparison is not kind to anybody involved 💸 Why Can't Arsenal Sell? — the Somerville to Al-Hilal story reopens a wound. Berta was brought in to move players as well as buy them. Pete asks where the Saudi numbers are for Arsenal's fringe players. Matt tells the story of a mate who went to Saudi for electrical work and never looked back. It's relevant ⚙️ Zubimendi — World Cup Winner, Dark Horse For Next Season — rested, recharged, point to prove. Pete makes the case that recency bias has done Zubi dirty and the version coming back this August is going to surprise people 🔜 Members Bonus — Yan Diamonde — a name linked to Arsenal gets the full treatment on Patreon.
