Summer 2025 Transfer Window

I would walk away just so we don't have to deal with them.

[Bild+] Arsenal are seriously considering Hugo Ekitike

I assume it's just us putting pressure on Leipzig and not a real story

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

HomeSteak reliable in any way?

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Speedster that's why I have my reservations. He's not going to be that one man wrecking machine the likes of Alexis could be, and this team badly needs that.

Rodrygo feels like he’ll flop. He’s weak and isn’t aggressive, that’s a recipe for failure in the PL.

Don Pacifico

Isn't that quote from the Sporting president basically the same thing that was said a couple of weeks ago?

Anything more than 70m is stupid money in my opinion.

JazzG

Wouldn’t be against this…

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Please yes.

Mirth

Ekitike or Sesko?

Qwiss

Mirth Ekitike easily for me.

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Ekitike easily.

Coombs

Ekitike for me.

Speedster we don’t have particularly good , or quite often any, movement, ahead of the ball. Too many wanting ball to feet and not wanting to find space or run into it. Martinelli can do it a bit where the games more often, but I don’t think he’s got the nous to find the space in congested games even if willing. Havertz can be good, as can Merino b it neither appear to be nailed on starters next season. In general we don’t have enough players looking to get into awkward spaces for defences.

I thinks it's more of a symptom of teams sitting back against us. And it's the same for every team.

When we went a goal up against Newcastle early. We played a bit more cautions than usual after and they had absolutely nothing. Just completely flat. They couldn't land a jab. It's so hard when teams sit back.

Anyone who plays ball against us we usually kill, specifically with our excellent movement.

JazzG

No idea who this guy is

Don Pacifico

JazzG his bio says Talksport.

Unsurprisingly, his feed says bollocks.

Coombs

I thought Frankfurt were holding out for 100m.

Ekitike is a very good prospect. Not win now ready.

I can see us not bothering investing big funds in a striker and instead using it for a left winger and an attacking midfielder. So the likes of Rogers, Eze, Leao, Barcola…

And we’ll get Calvert-Lewin in as a revival project allowing Havertz to be the undisputed number one. I think Arteta loves our Cobra

Speedster

Newcastle went all in for him before they got IsAK. Then he chose PSG scoring 1 goal in 25 games and Newcastle after being regected took the injury risk with isak who is a year older and a truck load better. And the Newcastle scouts get the plaudits.

I'm someone who's bemoaned Arteta and Arsenal for years for their lack of decisiveness when it comes to signing attacking players similar to how we do for goalkeepers and defenders/defensive midfielders, howeverr even I can not imagine we won't get a striker in this summer. Failing to do so would be gross negligence and another season of nothingness.

isak isn't a year older than ekitike. he just turned 23 this month and isak is 26 in september.

"Voices are saying" is up there with "network chatter" or "a friend of the Princess" ... what's the idea, the grifter is meant to be accessing the transfer rumour collective unconscious? "Ekitike ... Ekitike ..."

It's called a "source" because the information comes from one direction, you don't whip out your paranormal Geiger counter and measure the ambient Ekitikicity.
