Burnwinter itโ€™s the same three things I look for - just not as sexy. Ability, Fit, Availability

    If we already had Guimaraes, he could get on the field this weekend and kick Antony 6 feet into the air. Just to set things right in the world. Bruno too.

      lorddulaarsenal I definitely let my bias cloud my judgment with him. Still think he's a douche but warming up to him becoming our douche. The line breaking passes and balls over the top would be a great addition to the team, especially if we add a little more pace in the attack to latch onto those balls like Isak and Almiron have done at NUFC. Also like how he isn't afraid to take a pop at goal from deep if it's there - have seen Liverpool and City win too many games the last two years due to great shooting from outside the box and would love to see us steal a few in the same way.

      TNAT posted our attacking Targets

      -Isak. Arteta loves him and thinks he can play as a LW. But almost no chance Newcastle sell him this summer after Bruno.

      -Neto. Have always been interested but injury concerns

      -Nico Williams. Wants minimum 300k/w wage which is off putting. We have made contact with him but so have many other top clubs

      -Olise. Spoken to him already, but not likely as he is not the best fit for us.

      -We are not actively looking to sell Jesus.

      Getting more and more houseboaty. Any one of us could have typed this lol

        Yeah this is not insider info. I'm glad we are seriously looking at Nico Williams. Hard to imagine paying those types of wages but I think he's on pretty high wages at the moment at Bilbao. Have to imagine there are other targets that the club is keeping under wraps! Doubt that TNAT is going to be able to keep that Patreon going if he's already posting trash like this...

        Claudius man its embarrassing for our stats guy not to know the newest and most important metric in transfer business.

        Clrnc We are not actively looking to sell Jesus.

        Wow big insider info that Arteta said publicly last week. And also probably not entirely true.

        Gazza M oh shit. We have to be in for him. Prefer him over Olise

        Qwiss I'm all on for signing Bruno G. I want him kicking lumps out of anyone who targets Saka next season.

        I never realised how much I wanted someone in the team to be doing this until I read your post. Double like from me.

          Asterix the good thing about Bruno G is that the referees have normalized his violence. They will let him grab someone's throat or kick a man six feet into the air before contemplating a yellow card.

            People acting like Bruno will be some sort of righteous Batman-figure for us who will punish the Antonys and Richarlisons for their sins. ๐Ÿ˜†
            Have you guys watched him and thought that he's been elbowing people who deserve it, or is it just unprovoked violence against anyone who find themselves close to him? For me it's the latter.

              Gazza M Xavi Simons would be top of my wishlist for a more technical, attack minded 8 that can also play on the wing if needed. He's a more explosive Olise IMO and we need to do everything we can to be in the picture for him if PSG is open to selling him, which it seems like they are for some reason. Would absolutely love him at either the 8 opposite Odegaard or as a winger against top teams where we line up with a more conservative midfield.

              Simons is my no. 1 wish for the summer tran.

                Darren Dein's been his agent for a year. A total snake in the grass, but it's about time he dragged a player back to Arsenal.

                Claudius They will let him grab someone's throat or kick a man six feet into the air before contemplating a yellow card.

                Until he joins Arsenal after which he'll start getting yellows for breathing on someone.

                Clrnc those heady days when Wenger started bidding 100m for players

                Raya
                White Saliba Gabriel Timber
                De Jong
                ร˜degaard Rice
                Saka Havertz Isak

                Going into next season with that XI and a packed bench would be a monstrous willy shake alright.

                  The Times is reporting that we're open to selling Richarlison and Bissouma to fund a striker, a midfielder and a defender.

                  It's an interesting one. Richy has definitely been better for us this season than last season, but it might not be quite enough for Big Ange to take us to the promised land. No matter what, we need to find a solution here because Sonny is definitely way better on the left than down the middle.

                    None of those players are good enough. Maybe Ange is serous after all

                    That little girl has to be related to Bill Murray.

                    Re the earlier discussions about Bruno G being a violent animal - I refer to the movie The Commitments - "yeah, but he's our animal".

                    Burnwinter At the risk of nitpicking, I THINK I'd swap De Jong and Rice's roles here. I don't think De Jong is good enough defensively to anchor as the 6 and would rather him be more freed up to help with the first and second phase buildup.
