Almost there!! Can't stand any time without Arsenal...as soon as I see first pictures from training; I'll be good

 

[Mrs Bergkamp]

There are some top teams there which should have us playing on the front foot early on. I can't wait.

 

[Lord Manderly]

One of the games should have been in Melbourne.

Looking forward to seeing a few of the younger players on the tour, as well as how the team is shaping up to be organised. Hoping that Reiss Nelson, Ainsley Maitland-Niles and Stephy Mavididi are prominently featured as those three are IMO the closest to first team ready.

Hard to believe but pre-season officially starts today. Before we know it the new season will be upon us and we'll be chewing each other's heads off as per normal. Until then lets enjoy a relaxed & hopefully prosperous pre-season.

We do have some tasty pre-season fixtures (Bayern, Chelsea-twice & Sevilla in particular) to look forward to, an Emirates Cup and a Community Shield. Tours of Australia & China should be very enjoyable for fans & players alike.

If so desired, people can post anything pres-season in this thread.

Man Kolasinac is built almost like a linebacker. Would he need to trim down a little bit?
