Get Aouar for 30m and we'll be laughing. The options are growing.

Szob deal needs to be done by the 15th Dec. 25m needs to be paid in full within two weeks, plus Salzburg get 20% of any future fee.

Doesn't the tweet suggest that Szo needs to give his notice by the 15th and that bids must be made by the 31st and then paid within 2 weeks of the bid being activated?

Oh yeah maybe.

Either way it suggests that the Kroenke's will have to decide very soon whether or not to dip into their pockets for this one, and I can just imagine Arteta and Edu's nervousness in asking them to do so especially given current results and so soon after the Partey deal.

It's the right thing to do though, especially if accurate crosses, corners and shots are Arteta's priority.

Lol at accurate shots, corners, crosses.
Wenger would be wondering what’s going on. Headers are low xG shots. We don’t even have people who can head the ball. And judging by the crosses, nor do we have people who can cross. So what’s the plan?
Keep it on the floor. Use movement of the ball and men to break apart the defense.

Problem with that is we don't have men who can pass and move either 😆

This is depressing.
On the bright side, you get to see Pépé make fools of Dundalk this Thursday

Don't think too many teams above us have men who excel at pass and move football either.

I want to give Arteta to the end of the season to see what he can do in developing our style of play.

Saka, Nelson, Pepe, Partey, Tierney, Gabriel and Partey are all parts of the solution. Start putting players around these guys, and use the January to tweak further.

Our attacking play though has to be better as the season goes on.

Romano says we've been talking with his agent for weeks, and should hear something soon. Leipzig qualifying for knockout CL rounds might have given them a little more of an edge. I still reckon he goes there for a few years

I wouldn’t come here if I were him, not if he’s genuinely looking for a stepping stone. His profile would grow much more at a team like Leipzig. Easier opposition, playing time more assured, CL football, well functioning team and probably easier to leave when the time comes. But if he’s serious about football, he’d choose us over staying with the Energy drink corporation.

Easier transition between similarly run clubs too. Fuck Red Bull but there's literally zero reasons other than money to come here, the EPL isn't much if any better than the Bundesliga either.

So true, and that's actually the sad reality of Arsenal FC at the moment.

I’d go to RBL as well. He’ll be in the Chanpions League every year. Might even threaten to compete for a title. We are an irredeemable basket case

I think it's a boring move to go to Leipzig. Come here and play for a proper club! We might be in a bit of disarray during the rebuild, but there's a decent chance we return to the top tier in the next season or two.

Obviously Leipzig are a piece of piss tinpot club and anyone  who willingly drinks let alone associates himself with Red Bull is at a minimum a latent nonce. That said they're doing well on the pitch and for most players today football is a game of money and individual glory where associations don't matter.

Put it this way, the arrival of embezzled Russian funds at a small London club can make Nazis count an Ivorian to their personal heroes and legends. Dominik Szoboszlai Hungarian footballer was two years old when that happened.

Plenty of reason to choose us.

If I were a player I’d rather play in a league where the spotlight shines brighter. That’s why you see clubs like West Ham, Leicester and Everton sign the types of players they have

But Leicester and Everton are all to tell a positive story. What's our story?
