🚨 Morgan Rogers to Arsenal, HERE WE GO! 🔴⚪️
Morgan Rogers has agreed to join Arsenal and is now on the verge of completing his move to North London. The 23-year-old has given the green light to the project, with all parties confident of finalising the deal.
Arsenal view Rogers as a key addition to Mikel Arteta’s squad, believing his versatility, creativity, and attacking quality can help take the team to another level as they look to compete for every major trophy next season.
Barring any last-minute issues, Rogers is expected to become Arsenal’s newest signing.

🚨Arsenal have reportedly agreed a fee for less than £5million for the signing of Andria Bartishvili.
Juventus and Bayern Munich also tried to sign the 17-year-old but it appears the Gunners have won the race.
Blood is thicker than water.
I met a guy today who looked so much like @_DeclanRice Declan Rice that I couldn’t stop staring. I spent a good minute trying to remember where I knew the face from.
Then he approached me for directions, and his British accent jumped out immediately.
I interrupted him and asked, “Quick one, what’s the biggest club in London?”
Without hesitation, we both yelled, “ARSENAL!” 😁😁😁
The laughter that followed was instant. As we kept talking, he casually mentioned that he was Declan Rice’s brother. Naturally, I thought he was winding me up until he pulled out his phone and showed me family photos. The only difference between him and Declan is that Declan has hair and he doesn’t. Everything else, the smile, the posture, the mannerisms is practically a photocopy of Declan.
Small world. One minute you’re giving directions, the next you’re talking football with Declan Rice’s brother.
Only @Arsenal could make strangers feel like old friends in seconds. Arsenal for LIFE! 🔴⚪️
One reason why this kind of commentary is not useful is that this is what every politician says or implies. I don’t need to steal money because I am already rich. Or, I don’t like money, I have been using the same watch since 1905. Or I have no house in Abuja. This means absolutely nothing. What does it mean to a poor Nigerian to tell them you are already rich and this whole political adventure is even hurting you? Are you more hurt financially than any poor Nigerian who cannot buy kerosene or put food on the table?
Nigerian politicians who ruin the country or enable corruption don’t do it because they are poor. Or because they are stupid. They do it because the entire system runs on a massive cycle of pecuniary and parochial incentives.
Buhari as far as we know did not amass stupendous wealth as president but still he made the country significantly poorer. Nigerian politicians who are powerless in the face of elite capture of the state don’t need to be personally corrupt for this to happen.
We need politicians to have a clear workable plan for ending poverty, building infrastructure and institutions, reducing corruption, fighting terrorism and building a nation that isn’t balkanised between competing tribal interests that only serve those in power.
Nigeria doesn’t need another person who will tell them he is doing them a favor by running for office or that in fact he is getting poorer. We don’t need more of “I am a good guy, trust me bro.” What is your plan exactly? How will you deal with strongly entrenched interests who profit from this dysfunction and who would rather see the country break apart than lose their power and influence? Why should Nigerians who have heard these kinds of sweet nothings and who might see you as a regional champion (however wrong they may be) trust that you can actually do things differently and will not just capitulate once in power?
He might be the least problematic of the presidential candidates but his messaging is piss poor, and must improve if he is to get support beyond his current cult following, enough to successfully challenge the very determined incumbent.
@JomzTimo@WelBeast Are you sure about that? Or you dream about Arsenal and then think about it first thing when you wake up in the morning... don't worry no one will know... take care and watch us win it again lol. 😜
@JomzTimo@WelBeast It doesn't slap, Arsenal play in the competition and do have every right to talk about it. So your analogy doesn't hold. But yet continue 😜
