Arteta and Edu Transfer Targets: Summer 2020

[lomekian]

Would never do at cold rainy night in Stoke.

Only that Stoke isn't in EPL anymore

And might yet end up getting relegated again...

 

[jmsmtthw28]

poor guy looks like another big injury

 

[truth_hurts]

Any takers?

YES!

 

[truth_hurts]

No point in a cb like stones until we get some technical ability in midfield though.

 

[jmsmtthw28]

Can we get a proper CB to partner Saliba please

Problem is, that 2 young CB as starters would be very risky in the PL and proven experienced CB are probably to expansive.

And First we need to offload CBs, we have to many..Only Saliba, Mari and Luiz are safe this season.

Stones rumour came up in January as well, right? Never rated him, but I think people said he has improved a lot and would be a good ball playing CB. Right-footed, though.

Yeah, I believe Arteta was even asked about him directly.

I really want us to get someone like Ake tbh, Bournemouth might go down and we might be able to get someone of his quality for 25-40m.

Oh how I wish we would raid the clubs dropping to the Championship. We don’t do sensible things like that though.

Holding & Sokratis I'd sell. Would loan Mavropanos, Chambers will stay as he won't be fit for the start of the season. Mustafi we'll probably sell if we get a half decent offer. Going to be hard to shift Sokratis and Mustafi with 1 year left though.

 

[ChefMan21]

I think a good window for us would an established CM, established CB, and two youngsters between CM and CB, especially since we appear weak in both positions and look to be going through a clear out. Saliba covers the young CB, it's just the other three spots.

 

[Hunta]

Upamecano, Partey, Grealish. ~£150m.

Can do it if we sell the likes of Guendouzi, Torreira and Lacazette somehow.

 

[Hunta]

Leno
AMN Saliba Upamecano Tierney
Partey Xhaka
Pepe Grealish Saka
Aubameyang

​

Young CB pairing is a worry on paper but I can accept them making mistakes compared to the senior nobheads in there now.

 

[Rex Stone]

Leno
AMN Saliba Upamecano Tierney
Partey Xhaka
Pepe Grealish Saka
Aubameyang

Yeah very keen on Grealish. Let’s you go 4-3-3 as well because he’s a natural playing on the left.

Think there’s a lot of decent options about at CB this summer actually. I’m a big fan of Ethan Pinnock at Brentford.

Could be a Gary Cahill or Chris Smalling type signing, inexpensive and he’s climbed his way all the way from the bottom of the football pyramid.

 

[Sanchez11]

Grealish for 50m easy

 

[Gunner-Union]

Leno
AMN Saliba Upamecano Tierney
Partey Xhaka
Pepe Grealish Saka
Aubameyang

I like the look of it and if they all perform its def a top 4 first team. earlier in the season grealish played more central and I thought he was better there and he puts a shift in and tracks back too. maybe arteta can sell them his plan for the next couple off years. would like to add another striker maybe mitrovic as hed offer something different and Fulham don't look like getting promoted now

 

[Marjorie]

Upamecano, Partey, Grealish. ~£150m.

Bellerin 25-30
Guendouzi 30-40
Torreira 25-30
Lacazette 30-40
Sokratis 5
Mustafi 5
Nenners 5-10

Just clearing that lot out would give us plenty to spend

 

[Malky]

John Stones is awful, rather we stick with Mustafi than waste more money signing another defender who can't actually defend. Plus Stones is injury prone. No thank you.

 

[jmsmtthw28]

Has Upamecano impressed you guys when you have seen him play, I have watched a few Leipzig games since the restart and he hasnt really stood out to me.
It might be due to a lack of fitness but he has looked pretty shaky to me.
