Klaus

Coombs I doubt Dortmund would let him go, but Guirassy would be the perfect squaddie to have around for a few years. Such a good natural striker. Insane that he was left in Bundesliga while a bunch of worse strikers moved for massive fees this summer. The transfer market has no correlation to quality anymore.

Coombs

Klaus he's 29 with a 50m euro clause. Financially, they'd do well to sell, and they're Dortmund, so I bet they would.

Klaus

Coombs If he really has a 50 million clause then punt Havertz the fuck out the door immediately to finance it. Just go for it man.

Coombs

Klaus back to the same problem, though. Need a few players who can play up top, gotta add to Havertz.

Doesn’t Guirassy have like 10% knee remaining?

QuincyAbeyie

The Havertz disrespect is getting ridiculous (coming from someone who's far from his biggest fan).

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

We need one more power forward in January.

Leao is the ultimate Youtube highlights player because youtube ignores all the games where he just stands around doing fuck all. Its hard to think of many worse ways to spend money. I hope Liverpool sign him for £120m next summer.

lorddulaarsenal

Qwiss I get what you’re saying, but to me it’s about using him in the most effective way. He’d thrive infront of our defensive foundation. He is one of very few players in world football who is able to hurt any team at any moment. He has real star quality which we need more of.

No easy task to upgrade Martinelli but if we can drop a bag of cash to get Yıldız I'm in.

I would drop money on Yildiz as a GabMart upgrade.. But I'd still want to keep Gab.

Burnwinter

USArsenal You could see in the summer how Martinelli is viewed: we'll cash in for the right offer but not for the wrong one. One trouble is his combination of traits is sorta made for England.

Qwiss

lorddulaarsenal did you watch City vs Liverpool yesterday? See how Salah left Bradley to fend for himself against Doku? That's the sort of thing you'd get from Leao except instead of Salahs 30 goals a season you'd get 8-9 absolutely bangers each season. He's the sort of player you'd love if you were Newcastle but not for a team that requires the consistency it takes to win a PL title these days. In reality he doesn't really offer any more than Trossard.

I don't think we are really going to go for anyone in January unless there's a market opportunity like Yildiz or Bouaddi. Yildiz does seem like he could potentially move as early as January since he hasn't extended his contract and Juve will always sell for a price. He's one of the few talents out there where I would do whatever we need to in order to bring him in. I think he could play a variety of roles in our setup, with left wing being the easiest fit but could also see him doing a job as a false 9. But if I had to bet on it, I doubt we do anything in January.

lorddulaarsenal

samthegooner he should be our number one attacking target. Huge talent

Burnwinter

samthegooner But if I had to bet on it, I doubt we do anything in January.

I suspect Martinelli is on the market based on summer, but he can't possibly be keen to leave based on circumstances. And if he doesn't leave, I doubt we bring in Yıldız. I think Yıldız has to be a target, if he's at all willing to move then he'll be playing for one of our rivals if we don't get him.

USArsenal

Unless we have a massive (knock on wood) injury crisis starting in December, the chances of us doing January business is low. Like Sam said, i would not mind seeing someone like Yildiz brought in for the right "January" price, but otherwise, we're pretty stocked, and we don't need stop-gap players.

GooneriC

Chelsea have been after Yildiz for a while , I fear they will be ahead of us in that chase. They've got the finances to make a big offer to him as well

USArsenal

Yeah, but if we went for him and Chelsea went for him, which would be choose? A complete team that is looking to add real quality, or a team that stockpiles younger players in the hope that they turn into something? (rhetorical question of course). Not sure Chelsea will go after him in January though. Maybe its the right time for us to give it a go... Though i doubt we will.
