    Maybe I’m just skimming headlines but I feel like this has been completed three times in the last week

  2. Let’s hope he smashes it on loan and can get a permanent transfer back home. It’s just not worked for him in the PL.

    Surprise signing both times. Good move. Hope he gets regular minutes. There’s a player in there. If he can’t make it here, at least we need to reclaim the €30m+ we spent on him.

  4. Good move for him and us. Hope he shines and either a) we get a confident player next season ready to make the step up, or b) we sell him for a higher price than we would have got otherwise.

    I can see why Arteta wanted him. A wand of a foot wit the ability to unlock the deep blocks. Unfortunately it seems he just can’t handle the physicality of the league.

  5. Moving past that disaster of a beard in that photo, cool.

    So if Eddie and Fabio are gone, and Jesus is always stuck between crucifixion and resurrection, we really need attacking support. Hopefully in this window, or latest by January if Eduteta have a specific target in mind.

    We -have- to be signing a forward, right?

    Nelson, Trossard, Martinelli, Jesus, Saka, Kai

  7. Why did we buy Fabio Vieira? 35m was an awful lot to drop on a player who visibly wasn’t physically equipped to deal with the premier league

  8. I’m assuming Fabio Vieira out on loan and Eddie to Palace, means we’re signing an attacking player?

  9. Do we have enough attacking options from the bench? Not saying that they r effective. Jesus is injury prone. ESR, Vieira, Eddie gone. Trossard/ Martinelli, Nwaneri, Nelson and who else?

  10. Man that Nico Williams Orn Bomb is going to feel like A grade crack cooked by a tenured Chemistry Professor.

  11. I hope he gets significant minutes. There’s a player in there but he needs experience if we want him to have a role here. At the very least I hope he raises his stock a bit

  12. Unless you are so skillful like skinny Mahrez, you have to work hard, run hard and empose yourself on the game like an Odegaard. ESR was able to start at his age because he didnt blow away in a breeze and was happy to run. Vieira only ever gave us a few good passes and was a passenger any time he played.
    Hope he has a good loan and we can get some money back in a sale…
