they still really need to get 2, not just one CB's and I so wonder if Arteta wants to actually play 3 at the back anyway

Luiz can ONLY function as the middle CB in a back 3, so as log as he is the main option, they are stuck

Dayot is damn expensive, I listed many others up  above that could come in for less cash (most, not all)

that said, of course they would LOVE Dayot to be one of the two, he slots in so well

and they need a CMF too, that rat fucker thug Mattéo Guendouzi is gone I think, Arteta hates him (he is one of the seven I listed to sell, and he will be in huge demand) the bloke is poison, and it is a damn shame as he has massive talent, but is horrid person and burnt bridges that are even worse than the now redeemed Xhaka, but who knows, maybe they can all sort him out

Aouar there, under Arteta, worries me a shedload

they have 7 players to sell who would garner at least £150m or so

they are getting there, they have a lot to work with with Tierney looks a baller

far easier to diagnose and fix Arse than Spuds, at least for me

 

Arsenal flop Matteo Guendouzi heading for exit door after FA Cup semi-final snub and could be lined up for sensational Barcelona swap deal with Philippe Coutinho

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8537327/Arsenal-flop-Matteo-Guendouzi-heading-Barcelona-swap-Coutinho.html


Despite him playing for Arsenal I am delighted he has shaken off the injury issues at the start of the season and beginning to cement himself as one of the top fullbacks in his age bracket.

Having seen him make it through from a kid at Celtic to playing there, for Scotland and now looking very comfortable at Arsenal, it is exciting to see how far he can go. He has huge talent and his mentality and leadership which was developed at Celtic is the sort all top top players have and any young player should aspire to have. He is almost an old school footballer in that sense. Trains hard, plays hard, a real man in comparison to some of these other modern day youngsters.

He will turn out a real bargain if he can keep going on top of what hes done with Arteta. He is a player with so much experience and leadership skills for such a young age and you can see he is becoming more influential at Arsenal now as well in that regard imo. His workrate is also fantastic as it has always been.

If Guendouzi had this mentality and work ethic he would be a great player for them too. But he has been slowly walking down the wrong path since Arteta walked in there.

we also looked defensively solid, better than Arsenal today IMO, vs City when we could park the bus. It is way easier for the defenders to look like heros when there is another deefender behind you to cover when the ball gets past you. they lost vs Spurs, brighton and obviously when city spanked them just after the restart so we should all stay on the floor here. We have lost fewer games since the restart. Give us Emy Martinez as gk and i think we would not have lost vs Westham and maybe not vs SU

Though we've only lost one game less then they have after the restart..as it stands. Next week fixtures hopefully won't change that but we've still lost more games then they have on a whole. They've just drawn a lot.

Problem we have is City was the onl game we did look really solid. West Ham..Palace..Sheffield especially been all over the place.

Upamecano already said that he is not leaving because he is not ready yet

But he did not extend his contract yet. Less then a year left.

35m euros max.

But I do not rate him for Chelsea.

City is always under the radar.

Look at all this talk about Kepa or when other top teams make big/record signing.

Last summer they bought Rodri and Cancelo two most expensive signings for 63.6m and 60m pounds and nobody speaks about them.

One is clearly not handling the pace of PL very well and the other is always on the bench.

In general, nobody gives a fuck about City... Small club...
