summer '22 transfer craziness and stupidity

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

I don’t know if it was your intention but you really made that sound like getting a “cheeky Nando’s”

It was, tbf.

And also a realisation I probably need to get rid of Shaqiri

Neto would be quality. Looked a goal threat before his injury, in a very defensive team and Arsenal's number 1 priority has to be another goal threat. They simply don't have enough in the squad to challenge, at the moment.

Agree. Not sure what his goal output could be in a more adventurous side than wolves - let’s assume it’s more - but looking at him and looking at Raphinha I think the other key thing we’re looking to add is a duel-monster.

The fact that he plays more on the left, and the fact that we’ve been using Vieira on the right for the reserves makes me think that Martinelli is the man we’re training up to cover Jesus as the extra striker if we lose him for a stretch - I certainly can’t think of anyone else we could buy who’d be a closer match. Looks like he’s learning while he plays atm.

Auba to Chelsea looks likely.

A bit annoying because I’m sure he’ll score a fair few for them.

It’ll improve them, but it also means they’re not going for anyone better so I can live with it.

Haven’t Tuchel and Auba already fallen out in the past, or did I just imagine that?

Have we signed Neto & Tielemans yet?

Have we signed Neto & Tielemans yet?

Not with the likes of Pepe, Bellerin and Maitland-Niles still to get rid of.

I think we will struggle to sign either player if this FFP stuff is serious. We certainly need to move some bodies and quick.

Nooo. Not the midfield maestro that is AMN. I recall posters waxing lyrical about this boy 3 or 4 seasons back.

Bellerin?. So nobody wants a Spain international?

It's a decent short term fix for them, but I think Chelsea have quite a few big issues in their team / squad to challenge for the title this season or push on to where they want to be. They are firmly in the fight for a top 4 finish with us, Spuds and Man United.

How much are UEFA asking for to decide that we’re ‘fair’?
