Lukaku deal must be one of the worst ever. Thank fuck it apparently does not count into our ffp and at least the transfer fee is erased from our books wrt the new owners We should stop coutingin Felix as a permanent deal for next season tho. He is almost guaranteed to fail, as I delineated in the transfer thread. Also with Nkunku we get a similar player. Wit the new signings we have more thane nough cover for the front 3 positions so I strongly doubt we will sign him. He is nothing but a quick fix.
-
The club is contractually bound to continue using SB as home ground
-
These kind of late wins indeed can get you the league first time I have seen Arsenal really grind it out vs a big team in a convincing way
-
Surprised how good he is already. Strong in the tackle comfortable on the ball unbeatable in the air. Maybe playing with Thiago makes you instantly look better but he I did not expect him to make this instant an impact.
-
Reminds me of Vinicius junior of 2 years ago. Great pace and skills but too easy to dispossess at times and inconsistent end product. Would not concern me if he was still 19 but both are the same age so let’s hope our boy catches up quickly
-
Bring part Irish pretty sure he is against brexit lol
-
Expected result after last 2 cup finals mudryk makes an impact but you can see why he is the most often dispossessed player in CL, how raw he still is at 22
-
we should be looking at Nuno if so. I can imagine him having a higher ceiling possibly. Theo looks spectacular but the way RJ had his way with him, shoved him around at will when we played Milan really made me reconsider my eval of his defensive prowess.
-
I guess they want to roll with both Just a rumour in German media from yesterday tho. Might be BS. I remember the point with Hernandez always was he was uber happy at Milan and hence did not want to move anyway. At least that is what he said when we inquired about him.
-
So now psg are looking to sign Theo Hernandez for only 5m more than what we paid for Cucurella 😡
-
I think not even a crazy Boehly offer will make Brighton sell Caicedo this January. They hardly need the money but will want to make a push for Ropey League. 29m for Madueke >>>> 29m for Drossard btw
-
Yeah but he was backup for Lewa that season, appearances don’t mean shit you need to count the minutes he has scored 11 goals in 850 minutes this season
-
Typical Bayern to poach back a failed bundesliga export with world class potential. Kai would definitely tear it up in Bundesliga again. Esp at Bayern every attacking player performs and scores tons vs all those poor sides. Look at average duds like Choupo Moting scoring for fun for them. They have an army of attacking talent making runs and pumping balls into the box. There is nothing like scoring vs poor defenses to get your confidence up and then deliver in the CL well rested. Kai's struggles here are mostly down to him not having the time&space he had in Bundesliga and his frail body simply being unfit for the physicality of the PL. In Bundesliga where most defenders are comparatively weak&slow and every shove is a foul he will be well protected. He could play in his preferred second striker role for Bayern as a successor to Thomas Müller.
-
Actually ok with this signing Surely will be injured tons with our medical staff but we have great depth in attack now and he has proven to be able to bounce back from injury quickly 40m is peanuts for Todd with that homegrown status he will skyrocket in market value and not weigh on our books if we decide to move him on
-
One of the few sides with even worse momentum than us. Surely they will turn up like they always do vs us but so we do vs them usually. will b etight but keep salah quiet and they are quite predictable.
-
He is still young and talented enough to be molded into any kind of cb we need. I think if we try back 3 more often he will comfortably be able to play rcb and lcb soon anyway. It’s the middle one that will get difficult to find a long term successor to Thiago for
-
Big respect to Shaktar CEO Palkin for the honesty and transparency. You really seldom get answers this clear from football bosses. It is a bit reassuring that everyone Eghbali and Boehly talk to is apparently convinced by their project - at least as soon as they put the money on the table. I can totally see how this is a proud moment for Shaktar and Ukraine - can't wait for this friendly with Donetsk to take place.
-
Individually RLC>McTominay Both have developed 0 and are still the player they were 5 years ago but RLC at least has skill and flair. McTominay is just a bore of a DM. Granted, for a team in dire need of a DM, McTominay is more inciting. RLC could wish for Mctominay's durability and tenacity but put RLC. Put Mctominay in a lower-midtable team and he will not stand out. I'd sure take Rice but not for 100m. He is a great player, definite upgrade on Jorginho.But more importantly he is a natural leader, something this team lacks. Rice - Enzo would be one of the best double pivots on the planet. But not convinced we will shed 250m on that notion. As I delineated a few pages back. Enzo without a true creator like Messi in front of him and a shield like de Paul in his back is not effective at transforming a team on his own either. But give him Declan and Felix and he will probably look just as good as for Argentina.
-
both is probably incorrect. Figures I have read on most outlets is 50k vs 100k. If we indeed have tied him down for 8.5 years on reasonable wages this would mean decent business as he would not be completely impossible to load off if he is a bust.
-
Apparently clocked a top speed of 36.6 km/h in CL, fastest player this season so far and not too far off MBappe all time record
-
We will have to get rid of plenty of attackers over the next few months Pulisic mount sterling mudryk CHO all right footed coming from the left probably gonna roll there with mudryk and Sterling only convert mount back to midfielder and selll ChO and Pulisic mudryk is almost ambipedal but his right foot is too sweet to waste him on the right
-
A couple of millions is a nice way of saying 50m. We are massively overpaying here similar to how we did on Cucu or Kepa. Not that he is that bad but the mere difference between fair market value and transfer price. From his highlight reels he looks like a lightning quick dribbler with a bag full of tricks and that explosive burst of acceleration with a decent shot but his passing is just terribly inconsistent. Also I can not see him working without that overlap on the left so Cucu or Hall need to step it up.
-
It depends if before the post the deal was in fact done it’s fair game. A but too cringe for my liking but not illegal tapping up Still a little unprofessional… leave the banter to the fans
-
Nkunku will join us one day after Felix leaves so this is never gonna happen also will we sign Madueke AND Mudryk?
-
There is always the chance of Fabrizio blowing this up to generate more reach. Don't expect the chap to prefer our chaos over Arsenal's goldilocks run in. Hopefully this is just a red herring but definitely managed to rile ppl up. Honestly would prefer the Madueke guy over Mudrik. Probably at a similar level now but with Madueke you at least know what you get. Bags of pace, injuries and great left foot. this Mudryk guy looks like a total lucky bag
