Eduardo Camavinga

[A_G]

as much i like him here but adding Logonka who is just 21 years old and Camavinga who only 19 years seem bit too much we need an experience and ready midfielder to replace Xhaka.

Thomas and Elneny are in their late twenties, and this guy fits into Wenger's "if he's good enough, he's old enough" philosophy.

Well Camavinga did proved he is enough but i'm just worried but lack of experience in midfield and i don't count Elneny because he below average.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

We need talent for a change, had enough of that experience crap over the years with Xhaka and Elneny.

You right but i meant someone who below 25 years old Camavinga is huge talent but for me it's just too much signings guys with little experience in competitive league could be massive risk.

Pretty sure Alexis is a typical tap in-merchant.

He broke the Pepe and Gabriel stories first. He gets one big French story right every summer.

I dont think he did.

I'd pass on Camavinga. I'm sure he'll turn into a great player in time. We need a bit of nous and maturity in the centre of the park, with ideally PL experience.

I'm not sure how much of the hype is because he's a wonderkid on FM to be honest. Stats from the French league don't do much for me. Not being disrespectful but it's generally a poor league.

If we're going to spend £50-60m on a CM it's got to be someone coming in to run the show and make an instant impact.

With Saka, ESR, Martinelli , Saliba etc we've got enough kids / work in progress players. KT and Gabriel aren't the finished product either at their ages. Balogun and Azeez will probably break through to some degree this coming season. We're not running a creche here.

Don't need to be splurging big money on an 18 year old kid in maybe the most pivotal position in the side.

He did. Broke the Gabriel news in Feb actually way before anyone else.

Gabriel in February:


Pepe on July 20 (Ornstein etc tweeted about it a week later):

 

[GDeep™]

This guy is a superstar in the making. Wether he joins us or not, he’s going to be at a superclub in a few seasons.

 

[El Duderino]

2019 - Pepe
2020 - Gabriel
2021 - Camavinga

It's Bernard season

it's BERNARD, please.

Done and dusted then?

Monitoring doesn't mean anything, he said they made an offer and then planned to do so again in the summer.

We made a bid for Gabriel in january 2020?

 

[A_G]

We made a bid for Gabriel in january 2020?

Yes and the English press reported it citing Bernard's initial report.

 

[TimoJens]

Yes and the English press reported it citing Bernard's initial report.

Okay. I will not accept that as a fact. If we had made a bid in January, Ornstein should have mentioned it, for example here: , but he never did.

 

[al-Ustaadh]

If we get Camavinga, will he play deeper or take Ødegaard’s spot?

 

[Gooner416]

@American_Gooner You heard the man, he will not accept it.
