Not surprised.
Can play anywhere across the front 3, homegrown, ridiculously talented, scores, creates...
With all things considered it isn't that unrealistic. Auba has 2 years left, Lacazette will be gone this summer or next, Pepe will likely be sold, don't think Arteta rates him at all. Guendouzi will be sold, Torreira will be sold, Chambers will probably be sold. Özil, Sokratis, Luiz, Mustafi and Kolasinac wages all off the wage bill in the summer. Reiss Nelson potentially used as makeweight, Nketiah I also expect to be sold with a year left on his deal.
Grealish would cost £70-90M but for sure we can do it. If it doesn't happen this summer it'll never happen.

What is so complicated with that deal?
Just offer them a 60 M + Willian + video package of Omari Hutchinson, Matt Smith, Cirjan, and Balogun.

Yeah I checked our performances this season and there were few contributions, but like I said I think that's mostly the result of general misery than genuine incompatibility between the two.
I think the limitation mostly comes from the fact that our right side lacks quality, so I agree that when all our quality comes from the left it's easier to shut down. That being said, if Ødegaard plays RW that issue is solved.
I do highly rate Saka from the right, but I think long term it makes more sense to play him LW.
Based on his play in the senior team I can definitely imagine this.

- Kolasinac, Torreira, Guendouzi. All on loan will be sold.
- Laca, Nketiah, Elneny and Chambers one year left. Likely to be sold.
- Özil, Sokratis, Mustafi, Luiz. All Gone or going with under a year left on their current deals.
- Pepe, AMN, Nelson all out of favour. A fair bit of money there in potential sales.
In the summer we really only need Bissouma and Grealish. Its a lot of money on paper, probably £110M. But its completely doable.
In no way do I rate Elneny, he's a nothing footballer and it's a miracle that he's survived at this club for so long. But in no way can Willock do what Elneny does. I'm not even sure I consider Willock a senior footballer, I don't even know what position he plays. I'd be surprised if long-term he makes it as a PL footballer, he could be Championship level tbh, whereas Elneny is firmly Crystal Palace level.
Like you say you'd rather Willock than Elneny but at some point you'd have to play away in Bulgaria or somewhere in October and you'd realise that Willock cannot be the midfielder you start with. And like, the possible transfer fee for Elneny is so small that it's barely worth it. You'd struggle to get 5m for him. Just keep him, use him as a body in cup games when you want to give the good players a rest and then he leaves on a free the next summer.
Remember we need a Lacazette replacement, that's gonna cost money. They might even wanna buy a right-footed CB. We can't spend all summer buying CMs.
Agree on Azeez though. ESR is our breakthrough this season, think it'll be Azeez next season.
Isn't Renato just a less annoying Eduardo? As in he's not actually a journalist, he just talks about players he wants
Don't think he's comparable to Hagn tbh.
Renato isn’t a bellend like Hagn but he knows **** all. We’re not signing Grealish, move on.
Feel like they're basically the same, Renato just has more chill and doesn't make himself look stupid like Eduardo does.

Yep would love to be proved wrong but absolutely no chance of that happening.
He did claim that Willian and David Luiz were against Arteta before the media...
Country: Iceland
Why are Willian and Luiz against Arteta? He is playing them when I can't see any other manager at top club playing them in the current form. They are also on massive wages with zero pressure.
Ok, but you could claim that Willian and David Luiz are against their coach at any point in time over the past 10 years and there's a good chance you'd be correct
Luiz was in the same position with Emery but still turned on him. And with Conte who signed him at Chelsea.

We'd have a problem when AFCON comes round in January though, as 3 of them will be away.
Because of that, I'd look to sell Elneny & Willock this summer & try & get someone like Berge. That means when Partey & Bissouma leave for AFCON wed still have Xhaka & Berge as as replacements, with Azeez coming through.
True, good point. I mean in an ideal world that would be great, just dont think we will be able to overhaul the midfield to that extent in one window.

We are signing Grealish, move in.

Please, we are almost all prone to fall for pipe dreams again and again, but Grealish is just so off the charts. We shot our load on Pepe and missed.
Rather Grealish than Sancho even.
Would have a Sanchez'esque impact.

We really need to get some spies on these ex-Chelsea players' bank accounts in Panama.
