So if Tierney comes... WTF? Kola off?
Kola sold. Monreal as back up for year or two until Joel Lopez is hopefully ready to step up to challenge Tierney.

Probably or Monreal just will be using as cover CB
i know but we likely to sell Kosh Mustafi Chambers so he'll used there or just LB backup in case we sell Kola.We have too many cover cbs!
From released rumour yesterday to a possible new two year deal today
Happy for Monreal to sign as long as he is a backup to Tierney. He can play in a back four back 3 or back 5. which is great for Emery, as he likes to switch up tactics.
Kola, is very limited, basically can only play as a wingback. Again he's on astronomical wages for a fullback, so I hope we can sell him for £8m- £12m to get him off ou books.
He should really be going for around £20m-25m but with his wages, only Clubs with a huge financial muscle would be able to pay that fee and his wages.
We still have Sok, holding, mavro and possibly saliba and need a quality proven cb to!i know but we likely to sell Kosh Mustafi Chambers so he'll used there or just LB backup in case we sell Kola.

DisagreeIf you can play wb you can play lb
Not all LBs can play wb
What he brings is what we are lacking
Those of you who cant see it drank too much wenger-aid
Have you watched Kola at LB before? He's Championship level there.If you can play wb you can play lb
Disagree
The whole reason Emery went 3 at the back is because he didn't trust Kola and AMN in a back four.
Much rather have Monreal backing up KT than Kola - less of a liability defensively, more versatility, and doesn't have a huge long-term contract.
With this deal, we are on our way to become a mid table team. It's not because Monreal will be to blame, it's because the club is still accepting weak mentality. Monreal doesn't bring anything to the table anymore, even when you consider him as a backup we're going to be in a serious problem if we'll need him.
The only thing that's not clear to me is, who will be our first choice LB?
Charity FC will make sure Nacho earns some more money before he retires, something we already did for Lich.
I think he went 3atb because Mustafi kept being mustafi
Only Xhaka/Torreira were solid in Cm but they got no help from The attackers bar perhaps Laca and iwobi
When Guendouzi played it was a mess to
As bad as Licht was at times he still had some good to Great games and a a**hole attitude we needed
