Laughable.

Hard to take anyone seriously who claims that. It really is.

Sorry, but I have to call it out.

 

 

I remember when we won the CL in 2021 and everyone was saying "and we're just getting started"... 

Football changes quick. Salah and VVD are crucial and they aren't getting any younger. Despite how Diaz was rated, I think he added a lot to their team. 

On the other end, I don't think Wirtz is the top, top, top talent everyone makes him out to be.

Eze will easily start as LW. There's literally no competition for that place which was imo Arsenal's biggest weakness. Martinelli and Trossard are jokes.

Now I don't see any weak areas in Arsenal starting 11.

Eze thrives playing centrally. Something that would have been a cert at Tottenham especially with Maddison's absence.

Curious if Eze is as effective out of that #10 area.

I feel the answer will be no. He'll be far easier to read as well.

Agreed. For me it would be similar to us buying Xavi Simons and playing him on the LW. Yes, they can play out there but they’re more influential and effective centrally.

BREAKING: BVB and Chelsea are in direct talks over a loan move for Aaron Anselmino (20). CFC have proposed a double deal to Dortmund: Carney Chukwuemeka (21)on a permanent transfer AND Anselmino on loan.

Borussia Dortmund are targeting a young and talented centre-back. Talks with Chelsea remain ongoing. Dortmund discussing the name Anselmino internally.

Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca on Aaron Anselmino: “He is a fantastic boy. Good player, but he needs to go and play games. He is another player waiting for a solution”

Dortmund would be a crazy good development spot for Anselmino if he actually plays. But at a club like that we risk him sitting on the bench all season not playing if he doesn’t look great straight away

As well as a development opportunity, I see loans as a test of the player. Do they have thew mentality to both step to the challenge and adapt to new club.

Looks like contract was due to finish with Brighton in June 2026.  

Will be interesting to see how the loan works with Strasbourg as we've already loaned them Penders and Paez. 

It doesn’t. Sarr is also on loan. 3 players is max.
