Arteta and Edu Transfer Targets: Summer 2020

[Mitch]

You're going the @Mitch road and trying to make Pepe your Bellerin huh?

Difference being a large portion of this forum agree with me when it comes to Bellerin. Hence why he was one of most mentioned players in the overrated players thread. You only have to check last season Bellerin thread to see there are large amount of posters who dont think hes good enough.

when you have no journalists who cover your club like Liverpool chelsea even f**king everton then you don't know what we are going to do we rely more on the media from France Germany Italy when we link with players from these players.

Anyone trying their best can't top his hate of Bellerin.

It's not hate, it just recognising a player isnt up to the required level similar to Jenko, Santos and Traore.

Plus Bellerin athough his inept positional awareness is extremely frustrating he isnt as frustrating and Diaby to watch. Whilst majority of fans overlook/ deluded themselves over Bellerin poor play because they like his fashion or social media content. Diaby fans deluded themselves because he was a tall skinny black frnech man and were desperate to have another Vieira.

Guess he is a free Lucas replacement on lower wages. Makes sense.

Are we trying for both or just one?

Both. Whether it happens or not is a different story.

11 days left.

I feel sorry for these two having to clear up years of transfer mess and failed projects before they can get what they want

Nah he actually did say we want both in his podcast but his opinion is we will only get one.

I meant you

My expectations for the summer were pretty low as we have quite a 'anchors' weighing us down, thankfully we will be rid of them next summer. In the short term it is very frustrating and I am sure they are doing the best they can.

Atletico is preparing a bid for Torreira as we speak

 

[AD1998]

No problem with keeping Mo. Not on massive wages, I don't think. Decent squad player. You could put him in and be confident he'll do the tactical job asked and won't lose it for you. Also won't win it for you, but could do worse than having him as a 4th CM.

This bright idea came to me today; would anyone consider swapping Pepe for Aouar?
Is that a viable option?

No.

Still paying for Pepe for starters. And he can still come good, he's such a talented footballer. Wouldnt want to just give up on him. Created the first goal today. Can cause absolute mayhem.

Payments can keep going on after we make the swap. We'd be getting Aouar without paying anything.

Are you saying no because you think Pepe's invaluable to the team? In my opinion, he could turn out be a great player but we can replace him without buying anyone. Willian, Saka, Martinelli, Nelson, AMN, Smith Rowe... all could play his role.

It would come down to whether Lyon would accept, which depends on whether they need a winger.

I'm saying no because he is 25 years old and could quite easily become our star player over the next few years. According to Auba he is Arteta's favourite player in training. Everyone realises how talented the guy is.

We shouldn't need to get rid of our most talented player to replace him with another talented player.
