Malcom

[SA Gunner]

It's against PSG though. It's way easier to expose teams that play attacking football than to knock down a ten man defenses surrounding the box, which is 75% of PL teams.

Yup, good point made mate.

Our football also isnt effective anymore, especially against deep lying defensive setups. Malcolm will suffer the same fate as our current players in the team.

We do need this player, and others of his quality, but we also need a system adjustment.

Theo the predator with the ITK knowledge.

Knew I should have got into his van ffs.

Agreed. We need players like him with pace and close ball control that can beat a man. They will draw multiple defenders to them and stretch the pitch creating space for our players to exploit. Likewise if they find themselves into space they should be able to exploit that with deadly finishing, unlike Welbeck and Walcott. We need at least two of his ilk. That's why Mahrez would be a good addition.

What system adjustment do you think we need?

What you are speaking about above is necessary to a more effective setup.

We need to increase our ability to work in tight space and stretch compact defensive organisation. For this we need dribblers and those who are able to keep the ball very well.

More of the likes of Mahrez, Özil, Fekir, Wilshere, Malcolm needed, combined by players off the ball like Lacazette and Ramsey.

Also, we need to start playing direct football again, getting the ball to our front line as soon as possible.

Tika taka is dead and we are going absolutely nowhere still trying to play it.

I cant see the tweets but as far as ownership goes, I thought it had been cleared that he was now 100% owned by Bordeaux. @carlito'sway posted about it recently.

Apparently Malcom’s Mother has put on Facebook “from Brazil to the U.K.”. Not sure of its authenticity, but there’s an accompanying photo which I can upload right now.

Struggling to get excited by Malcom if I’m honest. Clearly Mislintat highly rates him, and he will no doubt be an upgrade at RW. Just wanted Mahrez or a player with similar skill set. Need to get the right person for LW now. Worrying that Iwobi will just move back there.

Saw the pics, she's sending prayers etc etc to the land of the queen.

Seems this is done, reckon City get Alexis now.

Dont worry, we have Welbeck too! Seriously I think we will still go for Lemar, or Draxler as a back up option.

 

[say yes]

This is better than Benzema’s Instagram post on a plane. #WelcomeMalcom

First Brazilian attacker since Baptista?

Lovely stuff.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Hopefully this one done now. We need to add another winger to replace theo

 

[Tosker]

Malcom's mum must have been sweet-talked by the old man, I guess

Time to get more south American. Argentina Colombia and Brazil should be our target.

Don't forget Uruguay. They've got some great talent coming through right now.

Just stay away from Chile.

Apparently he’s slow.

Lovely stuff.

I loved Baptista, don't @ me.

Might be time to watch some youtube videos to get hyped.
