didn't coventry just sell him to sporting? why would we pay their premium for a player that was just playing in england last season.

so he just became well good in the 4 games in portugal?

Rumours of us being in for Neto again over the summer, wonder if we revisit that.

I think Partey needs to be replaced and Jorginho will be at the end of his contract, wonder if we make a move for a DM in the winter window?

if he's smart he would tell every premier league club except brighton to fuck off.

    Meatwad week in week out competition with Mitoma and potential to be stuck there for a while whilst they demand a huge fee to sell him?

        There is a better chance to get ahead of Mitoma than Martinelli tbf. The price issue would be a concern though.

          mitoma will be sold long before this kid is even 20. the people ahead of him at arsenal won't be sold. he's 18, he needs game time.

            Asterix makes sense. Our centre backs have far and away the most touches.

              Big fan of Diomande. A pairing of him and Saliba would have our central defense sorted for the better part of a decade.

              Don't get me wrong- I have no issue with Gabriel! Ideally we could bring in Diomande to rotate with both of them next year. I just think Diomande has the potential to be a top 5 CB in the world, just like Saliba, and pairing the two of them makes me giddy. If we could have rotation of Saliba, Gabriel, Timber, Diomande, White, Kiwior, Tomiyasu and Zinchenko next year, we would have the best and most versatile defense in the world IMO.

              We have Gabriel and Kiwior for LCB. We are very set at that position. If we need to try someone else there, we have Tomi who has performed there with distinction for Japan.

                Sporting midfielder Morten Hjulmand, they bought him from Lecce this summer. he's the one with the Arsenal crest tatoo in front of Diomande.

                  Shit didn't even notice the tattoo. Was wondering what connection he has with us.

                    lorddulaarsenal Lot of talk today that we’ll move for Toney in January.

                    always felt we were headed this way when there was barely any talk of a move for a striker in the summer.

                      would rather keep dry powder for ferguson

                      Neto and Toney would be an ace winter window.

                      Room for Ferguson next summer if Nketiah departs

                      Seems to like big physical players at the mo.

                      I’d rather we move for someone like Barella

                      Despite the apparent desires of the fanbase, I think it would be nice to acquire our second right winger before we acquire our fifth center forward.

                        Jesus, Nketiah, Trossard and Havertz have all played at center forward in the Premier League at a creditable level.

                        QuincyAbeyie Damn, our squad is massive if every player counts 1 x number pf positions they can play in.

                        Well, we've suffered a number of key injuries already this season and the baseline expectation from a lot of the fans is that we should still curbstomp every opponent we face. I think that's a good indication of our level of depth. The notable exception is at right wing where if our right winger gets a boo-boo and needs to walk it off for a minute, you have people ready to write the season off. I don't think I'm really saying anything here that people haven't already internalized, consciously or subconsciously.

                        lorddulaarsenal don’t you mean 7th right winger as Saka, Nelson, Martinelli, Trossard, Jesus and Vieira can play there

                        Nelson, Martinelli and Trossard don't really play there for us. Don't see why they would count at all. Vieira has played there but is a bad stylistic fit. I wouldn't really count him as a legit option. Jesus is probably our best bet but he's also our best center forward so it's not the best second option. Basically, if any one of Jesus, Nketiah, Trossard or Havertz played at center forward against City, I wouldn't really think anything of it. If anyone of the people you named outside of Saka or Jesus played at right wing against City, I'd think "Oh fuck".
