Heavily linked with this guy. Seems we almost signed him in the summer. Anyone seen him play?

There were a few stories about us shunting the Giroud transfer for this guy.

Dules was raving about him, surely must be good.

Hes a superb dribbler and finisher. Thats all you need to know

For y va

I rate him in the same bracket as jovetic.

Incredibly talented player but what I most like is how he combines well with teammates

Thanks Dula.
Based on that comp - Ooooo 🙂 looks a winner.
Like how he is in complete control of that ball, doesn't look likely that he'd ever be at a loss when in front of goal either.
Seems ice cool, determined, selfish enough, accurate, good header as well.
Follows up and hovers around the goal - always good.

Waiting to pick off another skilled Spanish player from a club that's desperate - pure Wenger.
Could be something in this alright.

Is he better than Cabella?

Different types of player but at this stage yes.

Signing this sort of player would justify it when we let Theo go in January.

Yep, think this may be why there is no huge panic regarding Theo.

Wonder if theo thought there would be more panic about him going?

Definitely, think Theo and his people forgot who they were dealing with.
He looks sort of angry (for him) when he plays for us these days.
Still, to be fair to him, he's scored some great goals already this season, even with the limited playing time he's had.

Fixed that for you y va

But seriously.

Arsenal signing a talented young, short Spanish midfielder in January?

I have my doubts about this, smells too much of Reyes.

Hope I'm wrong though.

I'd be delighted if we signed another player of Reyes's talent. Honestly, Reyes is one of the most talented players I have ever seen.

You clearly haven't watched enough football then.

Anyway, here's the thing - if Atletico sell Falcao, they won't be selling Lopez too. If we want him, we'll need to get in before City or Chelsea pay Megabucks for Falcao.

He's not a midfielder
