Emery's Loan Targets With An Obligation to Buy But We Want An Option to Buy Hopefully: January 2019

[NieThePiet]

I'm a big fan of Willi Orban. I'd like to see that.

What? No way.

[HBL]

We should probably re-call Nelson in Jan?

Sell Elneny and probably Ramsey/Özil if Emery isn't playing them.

Then sign a cb and maybe a winger if we're lucky.

 

[kraphtous]

It's a big positive that Mislintat and Sanllehi decide for transfers because it looks like Emery is that kind of manager who would refuse Ousmane Dembele for Ivan Perisic.

 

[trippyhippy]

if we can only sign one, i think a winger is way more important than a cb, we will have four to choose from once mavro is fit. a winger imo is vital as we cant continue to have poo like mkhitaryan and iwobi starting on the flanks

You can't stand unai do you :rofl:

Nah Emery seems like a decent man, I don’t agree with some of his decisions and probably his overall philosophy that he has shown so far. But I haven‘t followed his career until Arsenal so maybe this is just him adjusting to our injury crisis.

What gave you that impression?

 

[kraphtous]

How did you get that impression?

His love for Mkhitaryan and Iwobi over Özil. Also has a history of loving workhorses before that, his treatment of Denis Suarez in favour of Vitolo for example, always playing with two defensive midfielders (sometimes three), him falling out with Neymar. It's enough to get that impression I think.

 

[say yes]

Yep winger > CB every day of the week.

Although I wouldn't sign anyone unless they're top class / have potential to be top class. Would rather we sign no-one than another Elneny / Gabriel. Squad has too much dross as it is and if we're really that desperate we can use the loan system / the academy.

Thankfully, Sven doesn't seem to have a taste for squaddies with low ceilings.

You'd think it was common-sense given our financial constraints. Last half-decade of our 'economist' Wenger indicated otherwise

 

[Slartibartfast]

Here's one I'd love to be true. Allegedly Madrid would be willing to move him for £14 million. AS and El Confidential also reporting this, but then the Spanish press is even more unreliable than England's.

What? No way.

Why not? Solid defender. Great in the air. Reads the game well. Team leader. Plays the ball out of the back. And a manageable price tag. Who might Arsenal be able to buy in January that would be better equipped to step right in and help bring stability? Would you rather have Cahill?

You take that back. Gabriel was a saint

 

[Ricardinho]

Reckon the CB signing will be one of/both Pepe and Cahill. Both if Kos is deemed no longer upto it and allowed to head back to France.

 

[<<reed>>]

The Holding & Wele's injuries basically killed our chances for Top 4.
If we don't sign at least a CB in January we should just focus on the EL.

 

[krengon]

A new goal keeper makes no sense.. Focus on a winger and CB first, and then go from there..

 

[HBL]

We've made a £15m + Martinez bid for Ismalia Sarr apparently, seems like an unreliable source and a very cheeky offer.

 

[El Duderino]

Sarr deal likely separate from Martinez.

Swap deals are always complicated.

 

[every little thing]

Sell Elneny and Ramsey, get a center back center midfielder and a winger
