Strike

I would feel a lot better having Josh around knowing the injury records of Fofana and James

and Veiga sale has hit a snag

Things do seem to have slowed down with the Simons deal

Is he any good ?

I am glad Isak asked to leave after Arsenal finalised Gyokeres deal. Liverpool seem like the most likely destination for Isak. If they lose Nunez and Diaz they’ll be in the market for another forward

He’s worth 40 million. We will have plenty of interest in him. Lot of clubs like his profile - Strong, composed, well built CB with experience at LB

Rivals are spending but there’s no player other than Wirtz who’s in the unmissable signing category. Our attack is Pedro Delap and Jackson as opposed to Nkunku and Jackson last year. Seems like a significant jump up to me

This could be a game-by-game decision. Against low blocks, we can sacrifice a mid for a attacker

I missed that he's developed well. Another W for the Board's data projects

What's the use of Xavi? Is he Odegaard like vs low-block teams? Hope the board is aware they can sign defenders too

We need two defenders - an elite RCB and a LB/CB hybrid like Hato

They’re waiting for any opening to bid for Rogers

Whoa whoa we don’t do that here

There are still 45 days or so but this sounds like the plan. I am a touch worried about our ability to breakdown defenses. Beating PSG is doable but finding a way past a parked Sunderland/West Ham/Wolves bus is what we will be up against every other week. We could really use Rogers or a creative player for those games. Also, would prefer signing a GK - at least a solid cover for Sanchez.

I have a feeling we might sign Mads Hermansen who is for sale at Leicester.

Makes their Madueke signing all the more confusing. Phase 7 Arteta is going to be watching Madueke on the left wing

Simon Phillips (Tier 3/4) saying Chelsea has talked with Eze's agents

He would be great and can play the fullback role Maresca wants too. Don't see City selling one of their academy graduates again to us though

I think moving NJ on is not gonna be easy. Italian clubs won't put in a bid so the club will need United to come in with an offer (Arsenal are close to signing Gyokeres, Newcastle are in talks for Ekitike and Villa have financial issues)

Darwin to Napoli, Mateta to Liverpool is a possibility

“Arsenal won on xG”

I like the briefing that’s gone out after the win - let’s not get carried away. Work to do to compete in the Premier League, Champions League

Seems like a CB is part of the plan. We currently have 10 - Fofana Tosin Chalobah Disasi Colwill Badiashile Sarr Josh Veiga Anselmino

Noises out of Newcastle is this might be ascension planning. They may go into this season with both and sell Isak next year

Look at the PSG and Enrique reaction - like they lost a major final. Were never in it tactically today
