Vlahovic rumours growing too. No Ornstein or Romano grenade yet but there’s smoke…

Seems like Kolo Muani is very close to moving from PSG to Juventus on loan. If that's the case, then you'd expect Vlahovic to be on the move. Let's see though because I wouldn't want him on a permanent deal. If we can get a straight loan or loan with option to buy, that would be ideal.

I mean he is class (City and Liverpool wanted him) and It does'n't look like Partey will be with us next Season.

Soo its a smart move .. We still need a ****ing striker though.

Would still much rather have Sesko. Only 21 and already near enough a 1 in 2 man in the Bundesliga. £55m release clause. Seems a no-brainer. Most importantly he's a monster on football manager and that's the best scout that exists.

I have a feeling it's going to be a problem getting a CF in as a loan is probably the focus - Arteta REALLY wants Sesko and he won't be going anywhere until the Summer. If they cant get a loan they may wait.

On the plus side, this may be us next Season....

Martinelli--------------Sesko--------------Saka
-----------------------Odegaard---------------------
--------------Rice--------------Zubimendi---------
Calafiori------Gabriel----Saliba---------White
--------------------------Raya-----------------------

Subs: Timber, Merino, Trossard, Havertz, Nwaneri, Tomiyasu, Lewis-Skelly. (We may see another LWF brought in also)

Martinelli will need to get his form back. I would get rid of Trossard and Tomy and invest in a good winger that can score goals

Why would you get rid of Trossard?
He scores goals / can cover a bunch of positions. I would keep him without question.

Nelson and Viera need to be sold not Trossard.

Agree with Nelson and Viera. But Trosaard has been pants along with Martinelli. The amount of times they are on the ball and run into players, very seldom is there an end product. In all competitions their goal return is poor. Trosaard has played in most if not all our league games and returns 4 goals (1 in the cup). I'm sure his assists are just as impressive

Arsenal top scorers overall
Player Goals
Kai Havertz 12
Bukayo Saka 9
Gabriel Jesus 7
Gabriel Martinelli 6
Ethan Nwaneri 5
Gabriel Magalhaes 5
Leandro Trossard 5

I'm actually with you on this. He played well against Spurs to be fair, but that was his first good performance in ages. He's been terrible for most of the season. That said, I'm not sure if I'd actively look to get rid of him, as I think he's useful as a squad player. But, if we got an offer around £30m+, I think we should take it and reinvest it for sure.
 
Haven't watched much of this kid, but I support this move (if we can get it done) from what I've heard. He's meant to be a huge, highly sought-after talent. And frankly, we've not made moves like this for ages, so it's nice to see.

you have been splurging on transfers / wages for about 3 years it has to stop at some point
We’ve spent less than Spurs in the last three years and we make more money than them and have a higher PSR ceiling than them so why should it stop? We’re also not that much more ahead of West Ham, forest, Bournemouth and Newcastle. We have money available and we’re not at the psr limit. So please do explain why spending should stop for Arsenal but not for city, United, spurs, Chelsea or Liverpool?

presumably Liverpool will be giving contracts of the same weekly amount to Salah, VVD and Trent that they’re on right now, or replacing them with very cheap replacements if they leave on a free……? Otherwise when does their spending stop?

we spend very little and no way are all 3 of salah ,VVD and TAA signing new contracts .
your last 2 years accounts show a pre tax loss of nigh on £100m ours show a profir of £2m

Analysis by Swiss Ramble concluded that Arsenal can spend £165m and still be within PSR. We can spend money if we want to. We're choosing not to.

Also, in the last transfer window, we didn't spend that much at all, even if you want to totally disregard net spend.

So?

To become remotely competitive, you had to spend £230m in 2017, another £230m in 2018 (in todays prices with inflation). Fortuitously bankrolled by Barcelona and a free-spending PSG.

Why are you allowed to spend £460m in two seasons but no-one else??

You're not spending so much because you already have a world class squad. But you won't for much longer if you don't spend big on Trent, Salah and VVD.
