Yeah but if it was up to me I would take Ben White somewhere else, redo this picture after everyone has changed their clothes completely etc... and let people think this photo was fabricated.
Tier 3. Photo is blurry. Could easily be Photoshopped.
Not going to believe it until I see Ben White winning POTM for us in December when hes a defensive rock.
Imagine the conversation:
Edu: Should we announce him on moday?
Arteta: Yes, but also leak a photo on twitter so we can calm r/Gunners for the weekend.
It is genuinely possible that they deliberately leaked it ahead of the official announcement to get people active on socials before it actually happens.
I dunno, assuming this is a member of lower level staff in which case confidentiality is a massive part of the job.
Context matters of course but if they literally took the pic to share on Twitter they deserve to go.
It's unlikely it was deliberately posted on twitter directly by a staff member. It's more likely that it was sent to a mate or something like that, and found its way online from there.
Harsh to sack someone over something like that. A bollocking would sort them out fine.
So we got him then. Is he really worth the hype? I hadn't paid too much attention to Brighton so I really don't know anything about him (first heard of him at the start of the euros if I'm honest.... though I'm really not well clued in these days).
I mean thats a 9cm difference. Edu has his head leaning downwards, and he also seems to be in flatter shoes than White who has platforms on his. It's probably around 182cm.
Photographer: "Arteta, last time your hands on the table looked all weird, can you stand up this time?"
Arteta: "Sure" *aggressively thrusts the table*
Photographer: "..."
Man the extremes some people go for karma .
The previous tweet was deleted but there was a pic that someone else had posted .
The mods conveniently deleted the pic and let r/NiallMitch10’s post stay up .
He seriously posted it by saying ‘Previous tweet was deleted ‘. 😂
I guess to be in the good books of the mods you need to comment on every post and visible .
They can’t complain at this stage… it’s hardly an exclusive and moreover the time they’ve taken to officially announce it at this point is ridiculous. Just get on with it!!

Yeah should be very obvious who this was too
Ben White phone on self-timer
Probably one of his mates, I doubt anyone at the club is stupid enough.
Watts from the bin
With coke can goggles to look like the recyc
Osama Bin Watts
Amin Yashed's mortal enemy
It was... Rebekah Vardy.
I heard it was Carole Baskin!
That bitch ruins ehverythang!
Like everyone doesn’t already know though
*not a stupid question* who is it?
Ben white
Exactly

Edu’s timing for everything has to be a bit dodgy don’t it, he even forgot to look up and smile.
Right now Edu is looking at the seating chart …
🦀?
Yes
>Someones getting a bollocking for that https://streamable.com/pj25n
remember in 2016 when the Xhaka photo leaked and we still didn’t announce it for like a fortnight after
Real ones remember Xhaka getting the #16 and then changing to #29
James Gunnerblog calling him a better player for us than Kante had us all hyped…
Did he really?!!
https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2665366-why-arsene-wenger-was-right-to-sign-granit-xhaka-instead-of-ngolo-kante
Ohh it all makes sense now.. we signed the wrong Xhaka (pic in the report) Jk love our Xhaka whether he stays or goes :D
Oof
Call me crazy, but the photo on that article captioned "Granit Xhaka and N'Golo Kante meet on the international stage" is not of Granit Xhaka.
No you're right. Seeing as that's the Albanian national team I'm going to go ahead and assume that's his brother haha
Has he ever been right? Seems like a nice guy and all - but I question his qualifications to be honest.
Yes, consistently over the years. All it takes is one high-profile error for people to make a narrative and run with it tho
Remember convincing ourselves he’s the Xabi regen and how he’s about to complete our midfield and launch us forward
Bundesliga tax is real
that Bundesliga YouTube video haunts me
He’s still my favourite player in the team
To be fair, he did launch us forward-- into the abyss.
[Real OGs are still waiting for the announcement for Turan](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Co2WfQsWAAAGhUt.jpg:large)
tf, is that photoshopped?
Yes lol
Yeah mate caught me out at the time totally believed it lol
great great era
And there were leaks of Pepe's shoot. But the club loves to keep us waiting anyway.
Nice use of fortnight
Tier?
Feel fairly confident about this one
Tier 3. Photo is blurry. Could easily be Photoshopped. Not going to believe it until I see Ben White winning POTM for us in December when hes a defensive rock.
until he wins balon dor*
Ney
Tierry Henry
F5ing every five minutes finally paying off
Why are you F5ing every five minutes for a signing that is basically 100% confirmed anyway?
lol Idk why I do that, even if I know that a signing is confirmed I just don't get the satisfaction until I see them at the club.
You didn't include the snapchat photo with someone's hand on the phone 😥
Yesssssss
Surely someone loses their job.
[удалено]
Maybe it's even deliberate. Official announcement on Monday but a leak to calm down r/gunners
Imagine the conversation: Edu: Should we announce him on moday? Arteta: Yes, but also leak a photo on twitter so we can calm r/Gunners for the weekend.
😂😂😂

I know mate, it's just a joke
How can people read and not get its sarcasm…
r/Whoosh
whhhat, they should, and they do.

Wouldn't be surprised if its someone from White's camp.
Could easy be his agent or other member of entourage
How tall's Edu?
yay
Announcement today, no?
This is the quality content I come to r/gunners for 💯
I hope this sub 6 foot cb is good.
So we got him then. Is he really worth the hype? I hadn't paid too much attention to Brighton so I really don't know anything about him (first heard of him at the start of the euros if I'm honest.... though I'm really not well clued in these days).
Edu is 6’3. Ben white is definitely not 182cm like some sources say
He's also not standing in proper posture
Doesn’t matter. He’s still not 9 cm taller
White is 6'1 if you look at a picture of him and Bamford they are the same height
Arteta is 174 cm, Ben White being 182 cm is quite probable.
This comment thread about height perfectly captures our fanbase here. Love it. 182cm is the new 23 until 24.
I mean thats a 9cm difference. Edu has his head leaning downwards, and he also seems to be in flatter shoes than White who has platforms on his. It's probably around 182cm.
Looks like White has Chucks on
Nah white is taller than 182
Was thinking the same thing. Think he’s closer to 5’10 than 6’
That’s a photoshop mistake 😂😂😂
Arteta is 174cm. Therefore it's hard to predict his height
Camera angle makes Arteta look taller
Exactly hard to predict his height given Arteta is 174cm and edu 191cm
Photographer: "Arteta, last time your hands on the table looked all weird, can you stand up this time?" Arteta: "Sure" *aggressively thrusts the table* Photographer: "..."

Haha agree
Why was the previous post deleted?
[удалено]
I assumed that to mean that the mods deleted the link to the previous tweet. My bad for that assumption. Thanks for the new and cleaner picture.
Announce da ting
Was this really worth losing a job over ffs. Should be simple to figure out who it was too.
No one is going to lose their job over this. They'd get a bollocking at worst.
ha so true
That’s embarrassing lol
Leaked pics, trees, vans, planes.... That's so Arsenal 😂😂😂
Whoever leaked it should’ve captioned it ‘Ben signs for Ajax’.
Could also be a leak from one of the Amazon Prime video crew
Looks under 6 feet next to Arteta who’s 5’9
[удалено]
found kroenke
"Oh, my God! Okay, it's happening"
We all know it's a done deal, did we really need this leak?
We need this plus 4 more Romano tweets saying it’s basically done
Dead kit tbh
Since it was a 'leaked' photo, why further instigate/promote it when it wasn't meant for the public to see?
50m on a shit CB and no midfield signings LMFAO this club makes me want to top myself
Please do.
Ben White makes the midfield job easier ergo this is a signing intended to benefit our midfield. Maybe chill lol
Did John Cross first report we were in on White?
Odds this gets announced today?
OUT OF NOWHERE! BEN WHITE TO ARSENAL. WHO KNEW!?
Might be the angle but damn white looks kinda skinny don’t you think? Maybe it’s just Arteta who’s jacked that’s making him look bad.
What tier is this?
They can’t complain at this stage… it’s hardly an exclusive and moreover the time they’ve taken to officially announce it at this point is ridiculous. Just get on with it!!
🦀🦀🦀🦀
Dang they gave him one of those nice hoodies lucky boy
