Gabriel Paulista (Out)

[Lookin' for a new Baby]

He'd better learn Valencian quickly.

Valenciano isn't as prominent in the region as Basque or Catalan are in their respective regions. He speaks Castellano I think so he should be fine.

It is, I lived there a couple of years ago and they nearly all spoke valenciano first. Of course I posted tongue in cheek, they can still speak Spanish anyway.

Fun fact. My mates sister did Gabriel's teeth.

Happy for him tbh, when ever you see videos of training etc he never looks comfortable with anyone except Ospina.

30'C sunshine and sea. I'd be ****ing beaming from ear to ear as well (although without the ridiculously whitened teeth).

I liked him. One of a rare breed at Arsenal who might actually stick up for his mate. Good luck to him.

Ah I stand corrected. Nice place to live? Always looked like a gem of a city and seems nice when I've visited.

As most brazilians, he likely speaks Portunhol whilst really thinking he's nailing the Spanish part down.

 

[say yes]

Harsh to say that neither Chambers nor Holding is up to it @Furious .

Hype got ahead of itself with both of them but so much of defending is about experience. Think there's a lot of potential there.

Didn't he spend a bit of time with Villarreal so he should be okish.

Well I live in the Valenciana region, but Valencia is a great city, I visited it often.

So Chambers in and Gabriel out at CB for this season. I reckon that'll be all in terms of change for that position.

 

[Trilly]

We're not signing a CB to replace him are we?

 

[GDeep™]

Nah, look at all the great options we have - Nacho, Per, Holding etc.

Treble material.

 

[karl]

Someone should tell Arsène he is pushing 70 and has a mountain of cash to spend if he wants to take the title seriously.

Didn't do a good job. Tell your mate.

Looks like an upgrade to me.

Also: Mertesacker available, Mustafi second season, Holding and Chambers more experienced.

Confused by the reaction on here...we've sold one of our more experienced CB's and are now relying even more on kids than we were before.

Ageing Koscielny, Mertesacker that had admitted he struggles for motivation, erratic Mustafi and LB Monreal. Those are our senior CB's. Poor.

Makes you wonder if Wenger and the club are actually serious about winning the PL.

A new CB is a must with Gabriel on the move. Lets hope we have something lined up, although there's zero links to any at the moment. Gulp.
