✍️ OFFICIAL Eberechi Eze

[Rasmi]

That's exactly what i was thinking. Only player that would suit that description would be Josh Nichols?

Yeah, but no offence to the kid. I don’t see them asking for him in a deal like this. They can probably sign him for 1-2 million

 

[Gunner D]

Getting Eze is great and everything, but moving Kiwior on as part of the deal allows us to go for Hato guys!!

Another LCB/LB hybrid?

 

[A_G]

Yeah it’s just that unless @A_G tells me otherwise I’m gonna go ahead and assume that sunsport is just full of ****

Hopefully it’s Calafiori

 

[Hleb's Sirush]

Arteta bent backwards to try to convince our club to sign Calafiori when nobody agreed, if he really wanted a striker that badly he would have done the same.

You really think after kai got injured with Jesus on the sidelines already and even Saka not available, Arteta wasn't pushing to get a striker in? That he would rather try a midfielder (Merino) up front than push for a striker? Fair enough if you believe that but I find that extremely unlikely.

This is gonna be hard for people to accept but I really don’t think Arteta generates our targets apart from the odd exception (Calafiori)

I think they get run past him for approval.

Otherwise… how do you explain how we’re about to land Gyokeres?

Gyokeres is a Berta target. Sesko is what Arteta wants. Notice the articles saying that Arteta has "accepted" Gyokeres and wants him to be signed asap for pre-season.

I believe previously our team just sat there and no one was strong enough to say no to Tet. Many names suggested was overruled by him and probably Edu stopped trying/prepared to leave as he didn't want to sit there and be a puppet DOF.

I thought Palace lined up Diomande to replace Guehi? Doubt they want Kiwior

They tried but seems like Sporting valuation is 30-40 mil more than what Palace are prepared to offer. If I am not mistaken reliable journalists already reported this broke down.

You are taking the piss , but I am all for selling Kiwior and getting Hato as a backup of MLS and converting Calafiori as a LCB who will run less there and hopefully stay fit.

 

[ArsenalInMyHeart]

Josh Nichols ?

 

[ArsenalInMyHeart]

An emerging star or a promising defender... it can't be Kiwior. MLS is not defender.
We have Josh Nichols or Maldini Kacurri... I 'dont remember if they played for our first team... maybe in League Cup ?

 

[MutableEarth]

It's Josh Nichols for sure. He's one of the few prospects outside of the main group that Arteta actually rates - even higher than Rosiak, who seems poised to leave. It'd be somewhat disappointing but I don't think it's gonna be anything to be too sad about if he goes. Nichols is promising, plays both full-back positions and is quite a versatile defender overall, but his ceiling is probably below where we'd like an Arsenal RB to be.

He'll probably get replaced by Theo Julienne (another CM turned RB but very promising aswell) or one of Clarke, Hamill and Salmon.

Palace don't need an 18 year old defender that is far from ready for first team football.

And the tweet says a handful of games. Don't think 1 app counts as a handful

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

offer them Nelson imo. they don't have much wingers in team.

It can't really be anybody else tbh. Maybe Maldini Kacurri as he's been on loan already but think the Kiwior shouts are quite a way off as he's played a bunch of games.

 

[MutableEarth]

He'll miss too much football for them IMO.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

isn't he already back to training? him missing too much football sadly is always going to happen but i can't see we can offer them other players Vieira can't see him going there Zinny too.

 

[MartiSaka]

We havent got the money for CP release clause for Eze? What?

We have if we don’t buy Noni and that CB

 

[Goonger]

Seemingly is Josh Nichols.
