The Wish List

[BobP]

Fornals.

Has a release clause and Villarreal are likely to get relegated.

 

[L3T5 PL4Y]

Fornals.

Has a release clause and Villarreal are likely to get relegated.

Damn. They have been that bad? I thought there squad looked good. They have some interesting players.

 

[OnlyOne]

Kaylor Navas, expensive CB, Fornals, cheap young LB and semi expensive winger.

5 players in, maybe 6 with a young RB.

 

[Ricardinho]

Out:

Cech - 100k p/w
Ospina £3m agreed fee? + 70k p/w
Lichsteiner - released, 90k p/w
Mustafi - £15-20m + 90k p/w
Ramsey - 100k p/w
Özil - big question mark over whether we could get a fee, 350k p/w
Welbeck - 70k p/w

Total - around £20m to add to the budget and 870k p/w freed up in wages.

Squad left after departures:

Leno
Martinez
Macey or one of the other youth goalkeepers

Bellerin
Jenkinson
Sokratis
Mavropanos
Koscielny
Holding
Chambers
Monreal
Kolasinac

Torreira
Xhaka
Guendozi
Elnenny
AMN
Willock
Smith-Rowe
Nelson
Iwobi
Mkhitaryan

Aubameyang
Lacazette
Nketiah

Bring in:

Starting quality CB
Rabiot on a free
Thorgan Hazard - £20m

Additional comments:

Look at RB if question marks over Bellerin fitness for start of season.

Keep Elnenny around to allow ESR and Willock to go out on loan for the season.

Chambers and AMN versatility a big plus to have in the squad.

Players out permanently/on loan plus the three signings I've put down would leave us with a squad of 26 (although one or two would still be young enough not to be registered on the PL list)

Koscielny and Monreal to see out their deals and provide a bit of needed continuity in a massive transition period for our squad, plus the fact both are still more than capable of producing on the field when called upon.

 

[Fewtch]

Out: ~£105m
El neny - 10m
Mustafi - 20m
Auba/Laca - 50m
Jenkinson - 5m
Koscielny - 5m
Mkhi - 15m
Özil - Loan or free

In: ~£170
RW- Pepe, Thauvin or Malcom 40-60m
LW - Zaha 50m
CM/CAM - Havertz 40m
CM - Rabiot free
RB - Aaron Wan-Bissaka 30m

 

[BenTal]

Fornales is my dream! I don't care about any other palyer

 

[ArsenalFever]

Belotti
Barella
Lozano
Mammana

 

[ArsenalFever]

This guy is top quality
Alexey Miranchuk
Would like to see him at Arsenal.

 

[truth_hurts]

Butland (15m), Laschelles, (40m) Cresswell (30m), Rabiot, Zaha/Pavon/Lozano (50-60m).

Mkhitarian​

-----------------Lacazette-------------Aubameyang----------------

Reluctantly Özil is sold as it's clear Emery doesn't fancy him. Mkhi takes the 10 with one of Iwobi, ESR or Nelson learning. Sell El Nenny, Kolasinac and lose Ramsey, Welbeck and Cech.

Nketiah, Mavrapanon and Nelson get a higher squad profile.

 

[Mrs Bergkamp]

Skriniar definitely worth it he is top CB

He's renegotiating a new contract with a higher buyout clause. We've no chance.

 

[The_Playmaker]

I'm worried about the winger acquisition. I watched Lille and Nice yesterday and whenever Pepe and Saint Maximin come up against any form of capable defender it's like they disappear.

There isn't a stand out candidate. Probably explains the link to Trossard.

Julian Brandt would be a good option, if we were really considering offing Mustafi, then a possible swap plus cash would make sense.

I would also like to add Marco Asensio to my list of potential transfers, would be expensive but the type of player I believe we need.

 

[Krevsnih]

Lovely to watch this season of Ajax. Sooo many players I want. Beek, Ligt ofcourse, but could also get Schone and Tagliafico.

 

[Dennis_Bergkamp_10]

We need a LB, Tagliafico would be excellent. I'd also give Ziyech a chance if we bin Özil, he breathes football. Van de Beek would be a good addition, but we have plenty in midfield and it's not a priority. De Ligt is out of our league.

 

[TheEconomist]

Bring back Fabregas. The excitement and the lift would be unbelievable. He made a mistake leaving and Wenger should have never turned him down when he wanted to come back. let's bring him home

 

[ArsenalFever]

Rumours of Joao Félix having a £100m price tag, Thiago Almada of Velez in Argentina would be bargain of the century in today's current market. Post brexit, permit restrictions are likely to change, could be seeing more South America youth in England.
Thiago Almada is the most talented youth player iv'e watched play in many years.

Think you're on your own on that 1.

 

[Jae]

Mahrez doesn't look happy at City at the minute, would be tempted to go for him for the right price.

 

[The_Playmaker]

CF: Chalov
WF: Tsygankov
CM: Nkunku
CB: Konate
LB: Tierney
Rb: Aarons
GK: Madjek

We need to revamp the squad and get players before they break out or make the ligue 1 move.

 

[Dennis_Bergkamp_10]

Mahrez doesn't look happy at City at the minute, would be tempted to go for him for the right price.

Agree. Would be one of the first names on the team sheet here.
