Strike

3 games vs bottom teams in the next 7 days and then nothing for a week. I fully expect mindless rotations and for us to drop points

Classic BlueCo planning to let go of Tyrique with Gittens injured btw

There are players who justify a 80m fee and there are players who don't justify even 40m. Enzo/Caicedo are good examples. Yildiz would be worth the gamble imo

Sterling, Mudryk, Madueke, Neto, Gittens, Sancho on loan, Angelo, Estevao With the exception of Estevao (and Palmer if you want to include), not one winger signed by BlueCo has raised the level at the club. And hundreds of millions were spent. The owners are probably happy with the Madueke profit

I hear you but the rebuild will be slow and the important part of the season is top 5 and keeping the CL money going. Without that, we are going to be hamstrung in the window again.

So the brief from the board is we are a defender, midfielder and attacker short after being in charge of the last seven transfer windows

Arsenal were conservative themselves making it harder to have a go at them without leaving gaps behind I thought. Agree that they took a while to make Arsenal sweat but they are the best defensive team in Europe playing a home game where they are protecting a lead.

Anyone who doesn't acknowledge that Arsenal are quite good and that Rosenior is making some progress in a fixture crunch is not living in reality. Look at the season Arsenal are having - top of the league and 8/8 in Champions League. Running them as close as we did over two legs was more than what I hoped for. The gameplan today to sit back was the right way to go because the moment Arsenal score a goal, the tie was over.

Competed well vs Arsenal over two legs. Decent starting XI, the right changes. Just not to be

Surprised he went 50+ mins without a card

Cole and Steve coming on

No choice but to hang in here and spring on the break if we can. If Arsenal get the first goal, this tie is over

Hope for a Sanchez redemption arc

Absolutely agree. We have the tough run-in and we are getting through our easy games this month. We absolutely need to pick up 9/9 and hope there's a gap building to 6th with Liverpool playing City and United facing Spurs

Don't see anyone on the bench I'd see starting except Estevao who's not been training

Imagine signing Aguero instead of Torres in 2011

Aguero refers to summer 2018 when Costa and Conte had fought and Costa was on his way out

The same window we tried to sign Alisson Becker as well

Tonali's agent is offering him to clubs. Not sure he will cost more than the others when the resale value for all of them will be much higher as they are 3-4 years younger than Tonali.

He is a potential option for the summer for us if he is looking for a way out. He's clearly checked out at Newcastle but is still a top player. Wharton and Anderson will be super expensive and in demand.

Another chaotic window at the club. I thought removing Boehly and bringing the SD's was supposed to professionalize the operation. We seem to be having the same scattergun approach.

City's 3-man shortlist for Guardiola replacement is Alonso, Maresca and Fabregas. Source - Matt Law

My mistake. Yeah we need the next CB signing to be left footed or able to play LCB like Guehi

Don't we have Colwill and Mamadou Sarr? + Badiashile and also Hato able to play there in emergency situations

Absolutely need to prioritize a wide forward in the quality level of Kvara/Barcola/Semenyo Someone who can come in and play at Premier League level right away
