Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Don Pacifico Not that I don't disagree

That's a head scratcher 😆

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert whoops...😅

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

What now then, genius?

Claudius

He’s 2nd in league. 3rd in champions league. We’ve been here before. This isn’t terminal.
But the squad is beat up and we seem to have picked up 2 more injuries, and we still have six more games this January. So the solution is clear. We need to to force the issue in transfer market. Or risk serious cascading effects with Martinelli, Odegaard, Timber etc

HomeSteak

Claudius 3 injuries. Timber is injured as well. Or at least thats what they are saying online

Imagine all we end up with is bringing in another defender to cover the departure of Tierney and/or Zinchenko?

Edit:

Didn't realise this when I made the post. Arteta probably thinking "All hands on deck then Josh, we got a priority signing to make."

Claudius

HomeSteak you can’t be serious man. Don’t open your mouth if you don’t have nice things to say

Claudius oh boy

Wenger used to be great at changing things up and getting new combos to work when we were in spells like this. I fear Arteta is too rigid to pivot like that.

Claudius

Qwiss Wenger the master of 4 forwards when the chips are down.

Qwiss

He pivoted just last season.

I can't see where that pivot will come this season, though.

Coombs

Claudius at least he had 4 forwards in his team.

Claudius

Coombs was also an era when academies actually created forwards.

Wenger also went to 3 at the back towards the end of the diabolical 16/17 season and it helped us get a few crucial results.

Big Willie

By the way if we don't get a top scoring CF then we absolutely need to get a reliable goalscorer from the left because Saka isn't enough. Also until we do that we need somehow find an attacking player to play in the 8 because Rice is not going to cut it supporting Havertz/Jesus and Martinelli/Trossard otherwise we are just camped outside the box and going from side to side. Unfortunately we sold the only other attacking midfielder we had in the summer without replacing him.

Such a good manager - just do yourself a favour and get a striker and winger with the required ability. We won’t progress otherwise

lorddulaarsenal

Not sure what to make of that?

Is it the Kroenkes? Though why spend on Merino and Cala if funds are limited?

Qwiss

lorddulaarsenal what was that spend £80m-ish combined? It's not much for a club with title aspirations.

We've dominated Man Utd, literally created chance after chance and so he isn't going to come out and throw his players under the bus.

It is like it is in the DNA of the club, we had this under Wenger as well fucking chance after chance we create and still can't score! I mean look at the chances yesterday, those players score them 8 or 9 times out 10. Unbelievable really.

Gurgen

Time to buy a new left back!

lorddulaarsenal

A lot of fans are going to switch off or get uppity if we don’t get a striker in - be silly not to

lorddulaarsenal

Even if we do get a worldie they probably won’t be able to play Champs League

Looked at a few of these lists. Marmoush and Osimhen are the only two players who could help in champions league. I doubt Isak is an option given where Newcastle are headed. If we could get Gyokeres even if he was cup tied, would be worth it. And I’m still a Sesko fan.
