The Wish List

[roz]

Kompany available on a free anyone?
Would walk into the team. 1 year contract plus Holding fit again, keep Sokratis + Bielik promoted to first team squad. Mustafi sold and all of a sudden that defence looks a lot better if only for a year

 

[roz]

All Rabiot lacks is attacking threat. Other than that, his all round game is fantastic. Comfortable on the ball, positionally aware, combative and mobile. Him and Torreria would be immense.

I dunno, always seems like a better version of El Nen when I have (briefly) seen him play.

 

[truth_hurts]

Somethingbon the witsel mould then?
Doucoure was shocking yesterday!

That's a fairly astute comparison. Witsel is more energetic, but Rabiot better on the ball.

Dacoure was awful, might stop his asking price being in the silly region though!

My new wish list

All approximations of course

Sell:
-Özil £25m (350k a week)
-Mkhy £18m (160k a week)
-Mustafi £15m (70k a week)
-Elneny £7m (50k a week)
-Chambers £15m (40k a week?)
Losing Ramsey (90k), Welbeck (70k), Lich (60k), Cech (90k)

Total: £80m of sales £1m wage per week saved

Buy:
- Saliba £18m (40k a week)
- Tierney £25m (60k a week)
- Doucoure £35m (90k a week)
- Ziyech £25m (90k a week)
- Zaha £60m (140k a week) - he gets paid a lot at palace
-Martinelli/Cluade-Maurice £9m

Total: £170m 450k a week of wages

Give Lacazette and Auba contract extensions to get rid of interest.

Net: £90m spent, almost half a million per week saved in wages after laca/auba deals. Thats almost £24m per season saved.

Watford level midfield. Can barely pass beyond 5 meters those two. Auba wide is yikes as well.

Watford level midfield. Can barely pass beyond 5 meters those two. Auba wide is yikes as well.

Not actaually wide though, its a really good way of dealing with his lack of technical ability. At striker the ball gets fired into him a lot. If he plays LM he will drift into the box (he likes to arrive in the dangerous areas of the box as the ball comes in, hes not a 'recieve it with his back to goal and swivel' type player) while Ziyech and our LB roam the left hand side. When Aubameyang played this role he was scoring a lot of goals and we went unbeaten for ages. Unfortunately injuries/drop of form of our fullbacks and defenders in general made us switch to 3atb. We also didnt have a winger to provide a little bit of balance to the side, Mkhy would drift in also and with Bellerin injured our right hand side became nothing.

I do agree with the midfield's passing range mind you now that I think about it, maybe someone different to Doucoure in midfield I dont know, Rabiot would work.

 

[krackpot]

Piatek. Insane numbers!

Don't care what formation we play but the world needs a team with Özil, Piatek, Auba and Laca.

[The_Playmaker]

Cuisance looks interesting.

 

[African Flair]

What about hand a piece of paper to de Rossi? He can be a Mustafi in the midfield and still be a major asset to this club.

Flip Xhaka for £40 or whatever and use that for a athletic type.

This front line please:

Zaha Ziyech Sane
Aubameyang

[Giroud12]

Sander Berge. Been fantastic in Belgium and just said he´s probably leaving in the summer. Won´t cost much either, it´s really a no brainer. Him, Torreira and Guendouzi in midfield and we´re set for years to come.

Reports in norwegian media is that he has already sold his apartment and moved out. He seems sure he is going to move, and he is looking for a club who can give him a lot of chances.

CB: Saliba 15m
LB: Tierney 20m
CM: Nkunku 17m
CM: Palacios 12m
RW: Pepe 55m

Everyone below 20m so we can go big on one player?

Latest comments are suggesting a player we want says he will move only with Champions League. Pepe?

That would be a decent window that. Would get me excited.

Very good list. Hope it's near to Arsenal's actual activity this window. Don't forget Martinelli though.

Only thing I'd rather see is Ziyech at RW and get the marque signing at CM instead of Nkunku (Aouar, Ndombele, Tielemans or Barella preferably). Could live with both situations.

Would take that. Would rather Zaha though. Low balling ourselves some what in my opinion. Mustafi and Chambers out will bring at least 40m El Nenny and Mkhi 25-30m and whatever we get for Ospina and other small sales. That's a net spend of next to nothing.
