Why so serieuse?
We need a left back as well. Not convinced by Kolasinac and Monreal is aging. Not to mention that Sandro is genuine star quality and would immediately become one of the best players of the team.

✍️ OFFICIAL Hector Bellerin (Loan)

Reinventing VAR 😡
1. Sandro wouldn't leave Juve for Arsenal.
2. We already have two left backs and no one to compete with Bellerin, so I don't see the point in going for him.
Not quite good enough CMs as well then.
I honestly think this is a good decision if true. I trust our new scouting team to identify a cheap talent somewhere (with AMN becoming immediate backup) and reinvest the Bellerin money where we more desperately need it (ie GK, CB, CDM, or LW). When you're low on funds, you have to make moves like this one.

We are not going to get 50 million for Bellerin unless we are selling him to the Manchester clubs, no way other clubs will pay that amount for a full back. Especially one that hasn't improved for a while. Any right back we get to replace Bellerin will almost certainly be a downgrade from him, Niles needs to improve a lot defensively or we are going to be in big trouble with him as first choice right back. We do not have a lot of players that could get into the City or Utd starting XI, and Bellerin is one of the few that actually could. Losing him will be a blow that's going to be difficult to recover from.

not exactly elite competition.
Plus, check if you count how many times AMN let the Watford winger cross, and you will realize how important Bellerin is.

If we can somehow get £50-60m for him and replace him with Sidibe then I wouldn’t mind but I’m struggling to think of many right backs that would be available?
If we don’t sell Mustafi before this guy I’d be extremely annoyed.

Bellerin close to be fully developed and ready to push on and become a world class player and we want to get rid to start developing a new cheap youngster. It is a hellish circle really.
I doubt teams like Juventus or Barcelona are gonna pay unless it is like 10 millions up front and then 5 millions per year in installments for 10 years. Not really a quick money we need to be relevant in the transfer market.

he is? IMO he has not improved at all in the last two years. Would happily see the back of this player. Honestly think we could do a lot better. Hugely over rated. A pace merchant who has zero defensive ability.

Player:Saliba
Wonder if it's a coincidence that we we've done much better without him.
Chambers and AMN did a reasonable job of keeping our defensive shape.

Just an FYI on this post...

I don't think it is a coincidence. He's been very unimpressive. In the space of three seasons my concern in defense has switched from "we need a Left fullback" to "We need a new defense". Hector's stagnation is very concerning.

Id be intersted in taking liechtensteiner from Juve for a few seasons. Experienced, Leader and solid while AMN can develop would make sense. Bellerin money can be reinvested in the team while we get a better defensive fullback who can actually put in a decent cross.

Elaborate? My thinking is physically that backline wont be bullied and may actually organise themselves efficiently. Plus realistically we could afford these signings with the sale of Bellerin.

Player:Saliba
Debuchy looked OK the odd game he played, but his injury record was horrendous. So not sure how long he'll last at St Etienne, he's only had 6 appearances so far.
There are some players we really miss when they're out, like Özil, and um . . . . . . Özil. But Bellerin isn't really one of them.

I wouldn't be opposed to this, however there is a distinct lack of (available) right backs at the minute. It may be a case of playing 3 CD's at the back and signing a RWB, would probably suit us as Kolasinac is better as a LWB rather than a LB anyway.

Other than Sidibe can anyone actually think of other high quality right backs that would be available?
