He is so composed and dominating when he has ball. I will be really happy if we manage to buy him. In the worst case, we can sell him for about the same we bought him.
No Laca? I love Guendouzi and Hector too, but Laca's heart has been impressive in his time here so far.Guendouzi might actually be my fave player now that Ramsey is off.
Bellerin too.
Don’t rate him as a top player. Think he’s pretty ordinary.No Laca? I love Guendouzi and Hector too, but Laca's heart has been impressive in his time here so far.
I hear you. But didn't he get 13g 8a this year in the league? Not a bad return for not starting every game. And his attitude is so great. Oh well. Wrong thread for this discussion. I agree on Douzi and Hector.Don’t rate him as a top player. Think he’s pretty ordinary.
Giroud level stats. But yeah wrong thread.I hear you. But didn't he get 13g 8a this year in the league? Not a bad return for not starting every game. And his attitude is so great. Oh well. Wrong thread for this discussion. I agree on Douzi and Hector.
Sleeps around apparently, but as long as he's not doing a John Terry I suppose it's fine (although he should maybe assess his life values). A lot of links to players i've not heard of before and I expect a good chunk of the incomings to be from that category, and i'm fine with that.
We have tried and failed that route. We do need abit of experience in cm though. At least these young lads will have hunger and desire.I'm also of the idea that Arsenal are at a stage where they should be signing direct improvements on the squad, which means experienced players are more welcome, because of the mental side of the game, but at 20 years old, he seems to play a disciplined game with great positional sense, good work rate and anticipates situations very well.
I think the mental side of his game is strong, and maybe the key factor why Arsenal are linked with him.
Good to have, but umm, don't we have Xhaka and Torreira? I think they can shoot long range and even from set pieces.
Madrid have pulled outHeard Madrid wants him. No chance then.
Madrid have pulled out
Xhaka can hit some remarkable long shots for sure but he needs way too much time and plays too deep to provide a constant threat. As for Torreira, he didn't convince me this year with his shooting. I've seen good shots from him in compilations but those are cherry picked cases. Both of them have fairly underwhelming goal scoring record during their careers which suggests that despite their occasional ability to score stunners, they are not constant threats from outside the box in a similar fashion as the likes os Eriksen, Fabregas or Maddison for example.
Yeah, okay. I'm not against getting another one.
But can you compare goal scoring (or even assist) stats of Eriksen or Maddison (or Fabregas) against players who play mostly DMF, sometimes CMF? Those players are more like AMF, (sometimes CMF) I think.
Well, of course AMs score more than DMs but what I've seen of Torreira and Xhaka, I'm not convinced they'd be very effective in the AM role either. We need a replacement for Ramsey, and for that position I'd like to see a guy who can provide goal threat from outside the box and direct free-kicks i addition to timely runs inside the box which was Rmasey's expertise. Palacios doesn't seem to provide the first two according to the compilation posted here. Looks like a good player otherwise, though, so I'm not against us signing him.
