If Arsenal had signed Isak they’d win league. 2 Gyokeres it’s second again but maybe a bit closer. They need full backs.
My guess is we’re in a game of chicken with the bids we’ve currently got in, and I can’t see anything happening until they get rejected or accepted. The players have obviously said they’re open to coming it’s just down to the clubs now
Just seen that BILD who said we won’t increase our offer for Xhaka and that we want to pay him 165k a week. Also said Ekitike only wanted to move to Newcastle
if those Italian media reports are true, Lucumi’s agent has been in Spain trying to convince Atletico and Villarreal to bid for him. Atletico have bought Hancko, and if Zeze does go to Villarreal, that might leave us to get Lucumi. Hopefully Bournemouth stay clear. @JimHeron92 you were keen on Zeze for us earlier in the window. Curious whether you would prefer Zeze or Lucumi?
I just seems quiet lately cos it was mayhem the first few weeks! Rumours, links and breaking news ha was less than a week ago the lauriente deal fell through imagine being the mags this window
Zeze has huge upside but right now Lucumi is the better player We’d make more on zeze and he may develop at a quick rate I’d probably lean towards zeze
Money from shirt sales will cover Xhaka fee Just been in club shop 4.30, no queue, picked up 3 new home shirts for my cousin, boy and me... no XL left in long sleeve.
Would depend who the RCB was - if we signed a proper top quality RCB then Zeze would be more than enough that I wouldn't worry about the slight drop from Lucumi to Zeze - Zeze could genuinely go for 80m in a couple of years and in my opinion is one of the most exciting CBs about. Zeze and Diakite for instance would be cheaper than Lucumi and Diakite and we'd have 2 with massive sell on potential, but maybe you lose a bit of nous that Lucumi brings.
