Bruno is more suited to European football imo. Arthur found Italian football too physical at times while Bruno is doing well in the second most physical league in France.What makes people think Bruno is better than Arthur anyway? Both of a similar age, Arthur capped 20+ times, Bruno 3 times. Feel there is a real player in Arthur but he's just lost his way in recent years. Seems like playing for Barcelona will do that to you.
Partey will be back for Burnley, Xhaka for the game after v Wolves.
Wonder if we are even targeting a midfielder now, tbh...Thomas, Granit and Sambi (and Elneny coming back soon) for only league games now and maybe 1 more cup game.
Could see us going with that and focusing on bringing in a striker this window.
Though I am really not sure what our aim is this transfer window anymore, so hard to call what we will do.
Have to account for xhaka redsPartey will be back for Burnley, Xhaka for the game after v Wolves.

Cause he is a flop there and on huge wages. They want his wages of the books as long as they can. They know no one would actually buy him. But him being away 5 months at Arsenal and coming back with his value even less ain’t gonna help them at all
So strange that Juve want 18 months with OPTION to buy.
Two midfielders rest of the season with one being injury prone and the other one an absolute idiot who can’t stay away from trouble?Partey will be back for Burnley, Xhaka for the game after v Wolves.

In the summer we will buy a striker and next January we will be short on strikers and look for one. We could possibly have 3 strikers leaving the summer and I just don’t see how the club can cover that in one window. I do also expect Laca to get a new improved contract because they know they can’t buy a whole new strike force in one window. The club is and has been badly run for a decadeThis is exactly what the Emirate's era Arsenal always do, I feel....taking these needless risks, I just expect them now
Yep doesn't look too good that both clubs have been wanting(?) to move him on. Not happy but with recent transfer dealings I'm trusting the clubCan't believe that so many are happy with Arthur coming in. Really hope I'm wrong but he has Premier League flop written all over him: small, slow, zero defensive ability; shifted on from two big clubs despite them both struggling for good midfield options... 18 months would be a big no for me

Yeah I was thinking Barca maybe didn't want to move him, but it doesn't seem like they were hurting too much eitherDid Barca actively want to move him on or was it the most convenient deal to do between the two clubs? It seems like he was both good and bad at Barca and the decision to sell him was just to cook the books.
Doesn't seem to have done well at Juve to be fair, but he's still young enough that something could finally click. In any case, our midfield options are **** and it would probably be a toss of a coin between him and Xhaka.
Barcelona swapping Arthur for Pjanic was a business move but for all the wrong reasons
Arthur was supposed to be the "next Xavi" for Barcelona but now he's a Juve player, all in the name of balancing the books. Why would Barca do this?www.espn.com
