Tomo 21,751 Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 4 hours ago, TheHulk said: Enzo, Caicedo and Lavia with all these youngsters in the background would set us pretty nicely for years to come. It never works like that. If things were so linear Arsenal would have dominated once Cesc, Nasri, RVP etc matured. Not only that teams need constant refreshing to avoid going stale, even young ones. Case in point, look at City's current best lineup and compare it to their centurions. Stats 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,961 Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 I would’ve been super down and depressed a year ago about Gvardiol going to City after we got so close to buying him. But now that we’ve got two 20 year old left footed CB’s with sky high potential and a perfect coach to help them reach that potential I don’t care at all. Colwill in particular can become one of the best CB’s in the world. DDA and bigbluewillie 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Fofana transfer fee will go down in history as one of the worst PL transfers. Mhsc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got him when we needed legs desperately and for a reasonable price. He gave us his absolute prime years. And now we essentially get a refund. The only one who should have regrets is kova himself bc he never built any momentum to become the player he should have despite getting all the chances here. He is still very similar to the player he was at 21. Never got consistently world class at anything other than dribbling and close control even though he had all the tools in terms of natural technical talent. While every single major departure is reasonable on its own and not worth shedding any tears about what is worrying is the overall trend. Mount, Havertz, kova all were here long enough, loved by the fans that one would have been forgiven for presuming they had built a special bond with the club. The bond the Lampard, JT, Drogs, Cech generation had. The bond even late joiners like Cesc, Giroud and Ballack referred to. The bond that made them stay even when times were stormy and the club under fire from all sides. Maybe it’s just circumstantial, individual decisions coming together or a generational thing. However, it could very well also be that Boehly and the other duds already changed so much that not only has the club been missing that ruthless winners mentality since but also that familiar supportive atmosphere of the previous era.

A much lighter fixture list this season and better coaching should be a huge benefit to him. Being able to stay fresher and fitter and actually play a long run of games in a settled team could see him realize his talent. Definitely not giving up on him.

Pizy 18,961 Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Apparently Arse also want Lavia. They’re after pretty much all the same midfield targets we are. So it’s probably going to be difficult to get him to choose us when they can offer UCL football this coming season and seem so much more willing to splash huge money now.

Sell them Gallagher as part of the deal so overall net spent is lower and we also gain a HG player while losing one so that’s a wash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
