I think we are done. I think we have targets but it seems we are not prepared to pay the fees to secure them. Neto and Tielemans being the names that spring to mind. The current prices in the market are nuts, prices are very high for players who IMO are nowhere near at the top of their game.Quote:

If Zinchenko's back - do we shift him into MF?Quote:

Arteta won't start Zinchenko and Lokonga together. Xhaka WILL be in there somewhere with one of them.Quote:

The absolute priority must remain a goal threat winger. Only a prolific nonce will disagree with that.
Arsenal in CRISIS!!!
Maybe you shouldn’t project onto other people your own predilections towards childrenQuote:

Who would have thought Partey would get injured....I mean it's not like it's ever happened before! I've been banging on about Central Midfield all summer, we lack quality and decent depth in that area...here we are 4 games in scrambling around Europe now looking for solutions now that we have 2 Central Midfielders out injured.Quote:
