JazzG the running down players theme is something i completely agree with you
Reg the window - See the thing is many international team players aren't back from holidays
That's exactly when Bruno's transfer happened too, once he came back
I think if I was a betting man there'll be a CB in place before the community shield
this is intriguing till the file remains open as he is the spurs captain
Is there a captain left winger anywhere?
Some potential names we can look at-
Marmoush Serhou Guirassy for short term Jonathan Burkardt Said El Mala (Good winger prospect) Tresoldi Ferran Torres (Most likely gone to PSG) Godts Oyarzabal
Gunner89 said el mala looks like a potentially elite player, but do koln want 80m for him or something?
Godts from that list would be a good pickup.
Anyone interested in Kudus?
Cannon too injury prone.
Boring.
Don Pacifico who do you want us to sign? Some exotic sounding name? A David Luiz type? Sometimes ‘boring’ is not bad
Think this will happen if Villa move on the valuation a bit. Vice captain at Villa, Premier league ready, can cover CB and RB - fits in with the ‘ready now’ profile we’re looking for.
£60m feels £20m too much though for a CB.
Mirth £60m feels £20m too much though for a CB.
Yep fees are obscene right now. It would probably have been 40-45 million half a year ago but City and Chelsea have ruined the fun for everyone this summer.
Links to Neto - I’d be up for signing him. Nice direct runner
lorddulaarsenal he’s been shit last two years and Chelsea fans will be laughing all over the shop.
Sicario2 but what the fuck do they know? they've only watched every game he's played the past 2 years. arteta knows better, he saw something neto did that caused us trouble one time we played them. that thing has gotta be worth 70m.
Sicario2 a reserve CB who isn't £60m. Don't care if he's exotic or not.
But also, I'm much more concerned with us getting an attacker in.
Konsa - good, solid, clever signing
Neto - would somehow be a signing even dumber than the Madueke one
TambourineMan Neto - would somehow be a signing even dumber than the Madueke one
I don't get this one either, I think it's bull. Neto is useless. Not an inch of development in the last six years.
TambourineMan nothing clever about spending £70m on a bang average centre back who sometimes play RB really poorly.
Don Pacifico
Signing a CB has no impact on signing an attacker and vice versa.
We need a defender.
Timber hasn’t trained and White is past his best leaving Mosquera who is too raw.
Our title charge will die before it even starts. We need to sign a readymade defender who can cover both positions.
daredevil I'm not convinced we can't be more cost-efficient. I agree we need to sign a defender but not convinced Konsa is a good investment. I don't hate it but I don't love it.
Any money we don't spend on a defender is money that can be invested on an attacker, which is why I care about the fee/cost efficiency.
