Fabio Vieira: Bah, Hamburg

[Thrice]

We need attacking options, so I guess everyone counts. I hope he's not supposed to be the answer to Saka's injury though.

Has he at least developed a bit in his time there?

 

[fute]

Might make them work harder but apart from Oordegaard in the attack who has he improved?

Kai
Saka

He's developed an injury problem and a painkiller dependency on top of the meth.

22/23 Martinelli loading?

 

[Riou]

Gotta apologise here gays, this one is my fault.

I said "Vieira" too many times (but also not quite enough) in the mirror it seems, and we got the preowned one that has a leg missing ffs!

He also lost some weight. He looks skinnier than the day we signed him. I have no doubt Alessio Russo would beat him up in a fight

No.

Better than nothing. Seems to have been hitting a bit of form in the last month as well so hopefully he can hit the ground running. I'd have him at left 8 and out Havertz up front with Jesus on the right.

To be honest this is on Arteta again, we bought this lad for what £35 - £40 million and just then quickly gave up on him...whether rightly or wrongly on the players quality, there have been too many misuse of funds like this that Mikel needs to take accountability on...we aren't an oil club, money shouldn't be unlimited.

The Kronekes have been poor owners from a competitive point of view, but judged just on the Arteta era then you can't have too many complaints...spent quite a lot since 2021 and basically moulded everything to his liking behind the scenes, crazy level of backing to a rookie.

We bought Nuno for £20 million, then Zinchenko for £35 million, then Ricky for £40 million and have MLS coming through who looks better than all of them for example...if I was Stan I would tell Arteta to work with what he has, with just cause really.

 

[TromsoGooner]

It's not. He wasn't playing here and asked to leave. He wasn't playing in an easier league either. The only benefit may be Martinelli perking up if his boyfriend comes back although Cala is not going to give up his toy so easily.

Injured at the beginning, been playing after that

 

[BigPoppaPump]

I really need to find out what Arteta sees in him. How has he been at Porto so far?

I would just tell people I was injured..

It's just the reality of football these days, everyone costs way more than they're worth. All the top clubs have expensive flops or expensive squad players now.

Don’t forget mate all of the good signings are Mikel and all of the bad ones Edu.

I just wish we had an exciting attack again, feels so bland especially without Saka...WAY more of our funds should have went on that part of our team.

Martinelli-Ødegaard-Havertz/Jesus-Trossard

Compared to say our 2012/2013 attack for example...

Walcott-Cazorla-Giroud-Podolski

I mean is the former really much better?

While one was just a Top Four attack that probably got clowned on here, while the other is supposed to win us a title.

Not much, depending on the angle.

Lad is so skinny he's likely two-dimensional under the right lighting conditions.

 

[Nunowoolmez]

Excited about this.
