We have top players in just about every position
we are market opportunity FC, though.
think that's what he meant.
It's something that has been an issue re: squad building long before Mikel joined and has persisted.

I think we go in big for Barcola.
Romano saying he has terms agreed with Liverpool and all that's left is finding an agreement with PSG.
If we were going to highjack this, we have done so already.
Can't think of a reason Barcola's team or PSG would keep quiet about us going for him. The silence on this one is the loudest part.
I genuinely didn’t know what market opportunity means. Every signing is an opportunity.we are market opportunity FC, though.

Time will tell, we always move in silence where possible.
With strongly linked you mean a waffling Guardian article by some bum named Jamie Jackson? Hahaha the guy said we have offered him to United for a price of 45 M quid. To be tiny bit credible, he could have at least written something like north of 80M with a long term deal and being 19, starting the CL final for us etcStrongly linked with a move away. I don't think this would be good business for us; one of our best young talents
There's no reason why PSG would keep quiet about this, though. They need more teams wanting to sign him to get anywhere near what they are asking for the player.
His agents would also be looking at much better terms from Liverpool, given we can probably offer a much better salary AND stability then they can.
PSG want to keep him.

Because we are going all in for YildizCan't think of a reason Barcola's team or PSG would keep quiet about us going for him. The silence on this one is the loudest part.
I genuinely didn’t know what market opportunity means. Every signing is an opportunity.
We just pushed Newcastle for Bruno. We forced a sale from West Ham for Rice, etc. Even Gyok was a battle to get the way we did. We had him almost on strike. It’s not like we only make easy transfers. You don’t assemble the deepest squad in the Prem through “market opportunities”

PSG want to keep him.
So anything that isn’t signing a top player from City, Madrid, Barca, Bayern or PSG is a market opportunity..?Market opportunity means Vini, Özil and Alexis. Bruno is one, too.
When it comes to elite players, we never force a club that is either on parity with us or is higher on the food chain to sell.
It's a very reactive way to plan your squad and our squad being filled with square pegs - regardless of how good they are - is a reflection of that.
Alvarez, should it somehow happen, would be bucking that trend, for instance.

When has Arteta ever showed a willingness to rotate?
He’s got three senior internationals ahead of him now.
This is what his reps will be thinking.
He could go to Chelsea, get paid more and play more.
