[El Duderino]

Have people learnt nothing about the Portuguese media?
They're all frauds. If you were to believe we would've signed a dozen players from Portugal in the past two years.

All these reports about us stepping up our interest and making an approach yet other global sources haven't said a thing about it, even the usual tap-in merchants.

I mean, the last few pages have literally been about how no one's buying this?

And this is AM, home of every kind of contrarian, so that's saying something.

Imagine thinking this guy won't score 20+ in the prem. Safest of all options outside Osimhen

 

[Trilly]

There’s a line of thought out there amongst fellow Prem footballers apparently that Martinelli is perceived as an absolute baller.

Like we see him run down blind alleys but amongst his peers they see him as a Saka level player but us playing a combo of CBs and CMs at left back has nerfed him.

Not saying I prescribe to it personally but it’s something I’ve heard.

I’d bet my life this isn’t true

We’ve had real PL coaching staff talk about how they purposely pay him less attention than Saka. Treating man like Ben Simmons.

 

[Trilly]

Are people worried yet?

Potential target after potential target being snatched.

The issue is probably more the fact that due to Mikel’s specificity our targets are either so obvious/good that they’re unattainable (Isak, Rodrygo, Williams) or just **** (Havertz and Mount last year).

It’s interesting how nobody but us wants Sesko

Wtf is this? This is worse defending than the sardinhas assada merchants in the Portuguese league.

These were all Sunday league goals… except maybe the 5th one, but even that… he won’t score these in the PL, that’s for sure.

Posting like he's Donald Trump ffs. Nobody cares , just sign a contract with someone

Nah, if Gyokeres was posting like Donald Trump he’d say “Some people — VERY smart people — are saying the eagle is landing soon. Others say the cannon is being polished. Maybe the Red Devils are circling. All I know is, the boots are ready and the net is sweating. Tremendous things ahead. This’ll be HUGE. Believe me.”

I'm worried. This window will show our true status as a club. Are up there with he likes of Bayern, Chelsea etc? Or are we lower tier amongst the likes of Atletico and BVB? I'd say the latter.

After we broke the bank for Fabio, can't blame their media.

Don't worry if he doesn't score those tap ins and pens.... It's Artetas fault.

Scouting strikers

A huge examination into what Arsenal need — with detailed reports on Šeško, Gyökeres, and dozens of other targets based on fit, movement, physicality, projected usage, and yes, goal potential

You know one thing I’ve noticed about footballers? They always say player X is top.

That's impressive until you realise that five of those goals came from two games against Azerbaijan and the rest against Slovakia and Estonia.

I am glad someone else is also reading Billy, i was waiting for this from months.

Don't be so sure. I bet nobody had Chris Wood down as scoring as many goals as he did.

Kinda interesting that analysis took him two weeks but pretty much up repeated what I’ve said about the strikers after being a couch potato scout.

Guess people like the numbers or something.

And they were average goals as well. Don’t rate this guy at all.

Its time to get Sesko, Sporting is now wanting 80-85m euros for Gyokeres. For the price tags, no difference between Sesko and Gyokeres.

I'd like to think price isn't the main factor here and we've identified a clear top target and that's who we'll go for.

It seems we have done that and it's Sesko.
