Meatwad yeah I'd avoid anyone who has Dein as their agent.

    Darren Dein does not have a good relationship with the club and nor does his father as far as I know. Fabregas, RvP and Adebayor are some of his past clients at Arsenal, I think a lot of us were relieved when all the players he represented left the club!

    Pepe LeFrits The Athletic just posted their Arsenal sensible transfers - it's Zubimendi, Merino or Ruiz, and Williams.

    If only it was the "Athletic Bilbao"

      I’m all in.

      ——————-Raya
      White/JT—Saliba—Gabriel—Cali/JT

      Osimhen.

      Just get him.

      I’d fancy our chances of scoring against any team anywhere with him up top flanked by our team of duel winning giants.

        Kai as a box crashing LW would be an interesting variation on our usual setup with him and Calafiori in the team

          Yeah could work.

          Intriguing to see how the team shapes up post the close of the window

          Get a fucking midfielder and striker ffs. We can't go into the season like this.

          I have to say, I consider myself one of the more relaxed members of this forum (of course I do), but even I'm looking at our start to the season - and Declan, David & Bukayo only just coming back to the group - and starting to feel a little antsy about it. But I'm sure there are things happening we don't know about yet.

            I'm not worried.

            Declan and Saka are troopers, they'll be ready to play.

            Would imagine we'll see Jorginho (fit/rested) at the base of the midfield to start the year. He's the type of player who keeps a relatively high floor and will build your team's foundation. From there we can introduce Merino and customize Rice's role so find our ceiling.

            Odegaard will also be well rested, so we can help ease in Rice with limited minutes.

            RocktheCasbah you saw how Martinelli jumped into the preseason game with barely a warm up. Saka and Rice will play 1-2 warm up games and go. These players don’t drink like our 90s boys. They stay fit all year.
