HOUSEBOAT - Warning: tenuous links ahead!

lorddulaarsenal

More links to him today. What don’t you like about him Jones?

jones

He's a complete nothing footballer. Knows where the goal is and has a decent shot on him but brainless overall, average technique no outstanding physical attributes either. Sturridge levels of selfishness too that one season he was good at Lyon he wasted at least one good chance a game because he wouldn't pass it to a team mate

He also looks like a complete bellend

Ray

Boateng available for £13m.

There could be a perfectly feasible reason why our long time club photographer has started following a slightly random player like Geoffrey Kondogbia, but it could also be he's just taken his photograph . . .

Kondogbia must have been in there with Neymar!

Klaus

Don't even joke about it Ricky. I'd stop supporting the club if we signed that useless lump of meat.

jones

He's not the Inter version anymore Klaus. The Valencia version is class

Klaus

I saw him a few times last season too. Only found small things to hate in place of big things to love. Fell apart physically like a house of cards too after Christmas, didn't he? Perfect Arsenal target.

Bold Tone

Before he went to Inter he was fine, i thought.

jones

This last season really cant be used to judge him at all he had two big injuries if memory serves and barely played, he actually had his better performances in the second half too. His loan season there however was class, he won everything in the middle and was great with the early release mostly to Guedes, no coincidence his form dropped too when Kondogbia got injured they had great chemistry.

Not my first choice CM but he would improve us no doubt. If he can be brought in cheapishly I'd definitely do it.

Seriously bored of waiting for a key signing or sale of deadwood

Same. Maybe they are waiting for Wimbledon to finish.

I’m excited to see flashes of ESR, Saka and Nelson.

Anzac

So that's us 'linked' to both Lemina and Bakoyoko, and speculation re Kondogbia?

Also saw a headline that the deal for Bennacer has hit problems - we should get in there.

There were better efforts.
God knows why he posted that one.
BTW Harden's cross bar challenge was 8)

Maybe we will?

Eurosport_FR: Arsenal and Dortmund interested in signing Bennacer. He's not entirely convinced by the Milan project.

SKY: Arsenal join Tottenham in race to sign Dani Ceballos from Real Madrid

Supposedly some reliable Brazilian journalists linking Everton Soares to us, saying having Edu there will make the deal more possible. PSG also being linked, his father said a few days he'd like his son to go to England.

I'll treat this as houseboat until I see something more reliable, he looks a cracking player.

So Everton would be in place of Zaha? He looked electric last week. But what’s his trajectory?

JazzG

He'd come in at half the price and I'm no expert on him but he looks like he could become a top top player. He's a lot younger as well, 23 years old.

I'm not gonna give too much time to this rumour just yet though, you hear lots of random stories coming out of South America linking us to players.

Bold Tone

I thought he was Brazil's player of the tournament but don't think he will ever become as good a player as the Mbappes of this era.
He is, however, already a very good player and several levels above our current wingers so well worth getting.

We don't actually have any of genuine starting quality.
