João Félix

[pigge]

I'm probably the only who thinks this guy can be converted to a CF/false 9 or whatever. Said the same thing with Havertz. Both have the attributes to play as a false 9/CF.

He is a attacking mid, so inherently false 9 seems good. He can't be a striker it seems though. And we need a striker more than a false 9

 

[DanDare]

Why don't you want him then?

He's got silly hair.

No, really it's just because he gives off "won't make an impact in the PL" vibes like that guy Wolves signed Fabio Silva? This is from the little I've seen and read

He's quality but from what I have seen he is not an all and out loan #9. I kinda worry about how he will handle the physical nature of the premier league. I assume with Felix, if we buy him, we would start to line up more like City with the false 9/interchangeable attack. I guess Laca has kind of been playing like that dropping deep and linking up attack.

 

[HaffBR]

Don't like him to be honest. He has no fitness to play in the EPL. He is slow player with low stamina.

Doesn’t look like someone who will add to out high intensity pressure

 

[TriniGunner]

We need a striker in the mold of Vlahovic. There are only 2 other strikers that fit this, Halaand and Osimhen.

Neither of which are realistic

 

[Rex Stone]

How good is Osimhen @Yousif Arsenal ?

Wanted to see him at AFCON but unfortunately he didn’t go.

Very good everything you could ask for a striker but no need to even consider he not for sale and the Napoli president is pain to deal with he'd ask for 80m just like he did with Koulibaly.

 

[UnitedBeard]

This guy would cost 150m. No way Atl Madrid will sell him less than 100m now after invested more than 100m on him.

Good source during the Partey saga

 

[SA Gunner]

Would complete our “creative forward” depth, along with Jesus and Smith Rowe. Eddie has a chance to grow into such a player as well.

For now though, this is a natural transfer. You get him in, it’s business as usual.

 

[OnlyOne]

1 good game and people are starting to rate him?

 

[Macho]

All these small nippy forwards already here I would like to see something different at the club, but recruitment know best.

Decent discussion at the start of this thread though.

 

[Sapient Hawk]

The boy oozes class, anyone can see it when he debuted for Benfica. My only concern is his goal return is somewhat on the low side. With Jesus out, we need to be adding someone who will shoulder the burden until his eventual return.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Too much money on guy who doesn't score much we already have G.Jesus even tho i like Félix and wouldn't mind him but I'd prefer someone different

 

[blrgooner]

How on earth is he worth 130-140 million? I can`t even see him going for half of that! The only logic which people use to justify that is that Athletico spend over 100m on him. Based on that logic, we should be getting 100m for Pepe too.
He would be a dream signing though. Would fit our Jesus hole at the moment and would continue to fit our system perfectly even after Jesus comes back.

More to the point, can Atletico really demand more than they paid for him? He's already on the 4th year of his contract.

That is unless he did a Kane & signed a 6-year contract, of course

 

[ArsenalInMyHeart]

Loan + option ?

 

[OnlyOne]

140M for a player who isn't better than Saka or Martinelli makes no sense to me.
