Gazza M to be fair that is pretty rare for us to have to play like we did against PSG. Usually our attackers are trying to wade through a packed defence.
Mirth I think it’s because he has more physical power than our current options and is better able to impose his game on the opponents. He is also good at shooting from distance.
At this stage, with the level we’re at, we can only really expect marginal gains
this kid is allegedly a dowman level talent for LW. he looks remarkably mature in the clips ive seen.
He does although being smaller I’m not fully convinced it’ll translate to top tier mens footy
That said he could turn into a Doku type
Didnt we sign 2 south american kids last year or something? Whatever happened to them?
USArsenal yep - Edwin and Holger Quintero. They are young and won't join us for another year - August next year when they are 18.

Gazza M players signed for Chelsea 20 years ago when they were known for the same. Ultimately players will want to sign for the team that is most likely going to win trophies and we are one of them.
Houseboat but I like the idea of him on the left
Yeah Rayan would move Saka to the centre then Monga on the left.
He ain't it.
Hmm. Tad concerned this may be our window
Out Trossard. Jesus. Calafiori
In Monga, Rashford, Brown.
lorddulaarsenal Don't think Arteta would approve that window. Hearing his comments after the CL final, he recognises we need to be very ambitious in the window to match PSG's attacking quality.
lorddulaarsenal Cmon Lord this isn't the Arsenal of the 2010s. We are going to spend and add starting quality to the attack. I would be shocked if Monga is being bought to play any big minutes next year - he's going to be similar to Dowman and get maybe 100-200 PL minutes but mostly Cup games. Ideally, we play mostly youth/bench players in the entire League cup and early FA cup rounds.
Why do you guys think Calafiori is leaving? I don't see it.
I think people need to chill.. The window hasnt even opened yet, and its a WC summer. I will judge only once the season starts. We dont need an overhaul, we need some tweaks and super talent at the top end.
USArsenal feels like Real Madrid sending the feelers out rather than anything concrete IMO. They'll do this now and might wait 2 years before actually trying to sign him. They aren't in the habit of signing players with long deals remaining, especially not in defence. They're talking about 2 defenders in this summer too, ones Konate and its looking like the other is Dumfries.
This’ll happen
Good, I guess. Doesn't feel like it solves an immediate problem but we do need to start building for the next generation of this team. Smart youth acquisitions are a good thing.
Think we’re gonna get an even happier Klaus
lorddulaarsenal Should just go for Bouaddi instead - probably cheaper, 8 years younger with a lot of experience at the top level already.
