✍️ OFFICIAL Leandro Trossard

[sdotzdot]

Liverpool wasnt it?

That was Liverpool, but he did have a great match against United as well.

My bad! But yes you’re right - he demolished United as well that game.

 

[Vinci]

We'll quickly see that we lost out on Mudryk IMO. I dont think we would have gone that high for nothing.

As for Trossard, hopefully we can have him registered for the United game. A bench of Smith Rowe, Trossard, Tierney, Tomiyasu, Vieira, Turner and hopefully Elneny, looks much better.

And Holding, fam.

 

[Blankety Blank]

Well, saying we should have Partey, Xhaka, Rice, Tielemans for 2 positions is very Football Manager.

No, i am saying we should have 3 good CMs and then an Elneny or a Patino. Rotation should be limited where possible, continuity is key. Liverpool were at their best when they played the same 11, 90% of the time.

You need to stop comparing with City. They are an anomaly.

I kind of agree but when you look at the squad City have & all the players Chelsea are buying you can certainly see why people think/expect this.
Depth wise City, Chelsea, Man U & probably Liverpool have more than we do currently tbh.
If Sambi & Mo leave I'm not sure Rice/Tielemans would be total overkill with champs league football next season.
If you have the choice of one though you defo take rice as he is the far better 6.

Tielemans is probably the better 8 though.

I really would love Rice but even if we agree a deal with the player and bid 70m you just know fkin Today Todd will throw down 100m & give him a 10 year bumper contract

People who wonder if he will be only a backup.

This season in EPL, Saka has a point per 118 minutes. Martinelli has a point per 170 minutes. Trossard has a point per 133 minutes. Saka has more assists than the other two.

Take into account that Trossard played for Brighton. I think this is a signing that will help Arsenal a lot this season.

Transfermarkt also says that half of his EPL games this season has been LM, and I assume that is as a wing-back?

Man, screw this guy. He made a grave mistake in judgment on the Tomiyasu deal and we keep reminding him of his stupidness.

Now he keeps throwing digs. This guy is about as reliable as a blind driving instructor. **** him.

Nobody cares what this c*nt thinks

 

[Blankety Blank]

Surprised she didn't say "that's my b i t c h".

Ffs man won't even wear socks on his wedding day! Looks like some valet parking guy or waiter snatching a snog with the bride at the reception.
It's a big NAO from me

It’s a myth. They’ve stockpiled players who lose form, fitness and sharpness because of a lack of playing time. Look at Phillips, Grealish, Ziyech, Pulisic for example. They used to be consistent performers with regular minutes, not anymore.

KDB plays pretty much every game, as does Rodri. There are certain players you rotate as little as possible. Having 4 CMs like Partey, Xhaka, Rice, Tielemans is a fairytale.

 

[BaZZe]

Did we make the 12pm deadline?

 

[pigge]

Did we make the 12pm deadline?

Allegedly, yes!

To be completely fair, watching the full video, he makes some fair points and mentions that it is a good deal for all parties concerned (including Arsenal). I think the sensationalist headline makes it seem like he is taking a dig where he actually isn't.

He has spoken some real nonsense previously, but this is probably not one of those moments.

 

[berric]

Not sure he'll be on the bench vs United even if we registered him? He won't have a single training with the team or?

 

[albakos]

If we make a double announcement of Kiwor and Trossard today !???.



The forum is fully ready

I'm not really disagreeing but 3 of the 4 players you mentioned with lack of playing time are not CMs.
The 2 Chelsea players had no experience of the league so no real guarantee they were gonna work.

Philips has also spent most of his time at Man City injured tbh.

I agree grealish has not looked his best in a more limited role but certainly not been as bad as some think.

Personally I am happy with Rice & 1 more backup squaddie if Mo & Sambi go.

You certainly have to consider future replacements/quality back up for TP &Xhaka though.

What you really don't want is to end up like Liverpool with ageing midfielders & nobody ready to take their place as it may result in a 'write off' season down the line.

Players will get sharpness back with playing time when needed as Mahrez has shown at Man City.

I’d like us to get one of Rice, De Jong, Enzo, Caicedo or Bellingham. And then use Patino more, maybe even that Myles Skelly kid who is impressing.

 

[db10_therza]

Mudryk will have a spectacular debut vs Liverpool as he is expected to start

Yeah Mudryk vs Trent is gonna be an embarrassment

 

[Blankety Blank]

TBH that may be the plan? I've watched Patino a lot this season & don't yet think he's quite ready so he may benefit from another loan. However tbf I can also see the logic in having him around. Dunno about Skelley it would be a big ask at the mo imho.

 

[Rex Stone]

Hopefully get to see

In:
Rice
Patino return

Out:
Elneny
Lokonga (loan)

 

[Iwobeast]

Think I'm going to get him in for FPL, maybe just do that for every left winger that faces Trent in the weekend

In any event, he has no more insight than a million other people on twitter and football forums. I've never heard him say anything that was worth the time spent listening to him.
