Wouldn’t be the most exciting but he is talented. Another physical monster in the air

Sicario2 - Tier 1

DCL? Is it 2019? I rather sign Chris Wood.

I would actually try and sign Mbeumbo from Brentford as a priority. That’s our wing sorted at least. He can be our Mane.

lorddulaarsenal

We need a marquee signing in attack. We’ve not had one under Arteta

Qwiss

We should go for Ferguson loan to buy. He's not happy at Brighton, he's still young and had heaps of potential, would be a better option than Jesus, would allow Arteta to see what he's like personality wise, would let the medical team assess him full, etc.

MistaT

Qwiss -- I can't imagine Brighton would let him come here as they'll see Havertz as first choice.

MistaT

Anything to PSV's Ismael Saibari (CM/AM) who could step into our left 8? He has 5 goals and 7 assists for a high flying PSV.

It seems Partey is off the boil again and we may need Rice to play at the 6.

I also was impressed by Dodi Lukebakio (RWF/CF) for Sevilla. Anything there? He caught my eye in highlights vs Atletico and has some decent stats this season and last.

Qwiss

MistaT It seems Partey is off the boil again and we may need Rice to play at the 6.

He was off the boil at RB. We need to only play him as a 6.

He'll need to be replaced in the summer though and we are starting to look like the mess of last summer is going to make this summer an almost impossible feat as well. We'll need a striker, a left winger and a deep lying mid at a minimum. I can't see us getting all of that done.

A couple of nice links popping up today

Nico Williams - club to drop the bag

Joao Pedro - has magic moments in him

Don Pacifico

I've see nothing but beige from Joao Pedro. We should be aiming higher and that doesn't mean Nico Williams for me, either.

lorddulaarsenal

It depends where you see Havertz fitting in to things

Nico Williams thought would be a tremendous signing. We need teams trying to double up on our left as well as our right

MistaT

I'd rather Cunha than Pedro, but certainly selling Cunha would have Wolves dropping.

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Qwiss hopefully our new DoF hates barbecues and can get work done.

Clrnc

Qwiss last summer was pretty much a wasted window. I love Calafiori but he really shouldn't have been a priority.

I think we can survive another season without a new DM and with Jorginho still playing.

Priority must be a LW, and then a striker

Qwiss

Clrnc Partey is gone in the summer isn't he? We need a signing there and Jorginho kept as back up.

Claudius

Clrnc Calafiori was a priority. Just go to last season and see the constant complaints about Zinchenko. If folks had to watch Zinchenko most weeks cos there is no Calafiori, this place would collapse from calls for Arteta’s head on a spike.

Clrnc

Claudius Mate, when Calafiori was linked (he was a CB btw), everyone thought we are being trolled.

Qwiss He probably will be offered a 1 year contract

QuincyAbeyie

Claudius but you would be happy with Zinchenko most weeks and therefor not making Calafiori a priority, wouldn't you? I don't think you were among those constant complaints.

Claudius

QuincyAbeyie I am fine with Zinchenko. He doesn’t agitate me at all. But as I have said often, you want better players where possible, and I think both Timber and Calafiori make us harder to defend than Zinchenko does

Claudius

Clrnc this is a misunderstanding of how Arteta recruits players. He’s not looking at positions. He’s looking at attributes. He put this guy in at fullback because he’s a progressive beast. He was the most progressive defender in Europe last year. Thats the attribute we wanted to make us more direct. You don’t take that and put it at centre back in our system because the center backs have a clear role at the back to hold the shape and manage distribution.
Whereas in his previous club, Calafiori could constantly leave his centre back role and get cover.

Clrnc

Let me put it this way, Calafiori won't win us any trophies this year. Isak, Marmoush, Kvarat, Gyokeres or any LW/Striker upgrade would.
