Good signing, doesn’t get me off my seat like Jesus because I feel we need someone who can step in for Partey.

Neves or Bissouma would be very very good choices for us imo.

Why the **** are we extending Elneny?
The only reason is Bissouma won't be coming here to be 4th choice. We'll be likely looking to replace Xhaka and maybe Partey depending on his fitness next season so that's why we give Elneny extension to be the emergency 5th choice

Both should be technically gifted enough to operate from both sides, but yeah both are predominantly right sided (or at least play there for their teams). Can see ESR being introduced to this role too. Not sure he has the legs for wing play. We'll see..

Esr is more a forward than midfielder at this point for me. Doesn't really get involved in build up, he gets it and is really direct. Think there's potentially for him to play a F9 type role down the road.

Would instantly be our best cm (not saying much as best CM all season was Eleneny who started the last half dozen matches of the season says it all).

Sign both him and Neves. Sell Xhaka off.

Thats bad! Ødegaard conceded couple of unnecessary pens this season as well. Imagine those 2 playing together as 8s...

I don’t think he’d be fourth choice, he’d easily get enough games with Partey’s injury history, along with starting along side him and Europa I could see him joining.

Maybe they just not need to tackle inside box unnecessary the Ødegaard penalties he conceded was silly not under any pressure at all to do that.

Doesn't he play mostly on the right half space (which Ødegaard mostly occupies now) though?
He's two footed apparently. It's surprising how many of the players we're linked with are, considering it's a fairly rare trait. Seems like it's something that Arteta is deliberately targeting.

We should sign Tielemans as an alternative to Ødegaard. We still need another physical midfielder alongside Partey. Sangare/Bissouma/Sanches/Kamara/Camara/Doucoure

Nah, I like Neves but we need a physical specimen.
