Sven's Transfer Targets: Summer 2018

[wayne189]

Talking about wide men and a need for one I like the look of Ante Rebic of Croatia he has speed can take a man on but is also big and powerful and gets back to help defensively and a high work rate

I'm a bit wary if he's got the top level in him, but he'll yeah he's looked absolutely on fire the whole last season. Put two beyond Bayern, that alone would be reason enough to sign him. Looks technically sound, physical, devious, hungry, cannon ball of a shot and unbelievable speed and acceleration. Sort of Heung Min Son like and I'd have loved to have the Korean at Arsenal.

No club mentioned & the guy is ex Sp**s but I could see him being the missing piece to the Emery midfield group.

Akpom thread is locked.

When he initially signed there was a lot of talk about it being dodgy and a way to move money, him leaving only a year after would add more fuel to that fire.

Very strange signing, personally dont fancy him at Arsenal, he was beyond awful at Tottenham, got a few mates who say he is one of their worst signings ever.

Yeah it seems really fishy to me. I mean why go to China in the first place, and since when does Barcelona sign players from the Chinese league? And now he's bouncing so soon? I smell a rat, or a fish... Or something.

Signed for Guangzhou for €14mil, then Barca come sign him for €40mil..? He aged and I also imagine he didnt up his game by €26mil in China, if he does leave will be interesting to see how much for and where he ends up?

Yeah, Kia Joorabchian, staying well clear of that. Also, we've the better version of Paulinho with Ramsey.

 

[Wryer]

I like how the window has been going - fixing the central spine of the team.

And I hope we are also working on opportunistic signings that gets the fans buzzing, ala Arshavin/Özil. No, it's not about signing players for the sake of it. But I do believe in sports entertainment, you do what you can to generate fan base and create excitement. That positivity is going to carry the team a fair bit.

 

[Garrincha]

Cant see the sense in it.

Flopped at Barce, big fee & another one paced plodding midfielder.

Go Sp**s!

 

[Stannis]

I actually reckon Andre Gomes can come good but 40 mill is an insane price for him

Wouldn’t pay more than 15

 

[field442]

If true seems like we might be starting to look for potential Ramsey replacements.

 

[Phil Romeo]

Arsenal are interested in Barcelona midfielder Andre Gomes, contact has been made between the two clubs however Barça are asking for €40 million.

He's in the same mould as Banega though?

Yeah and he’d be played ahead of Torreira and Xhaka in a midfield 3 just like Banega would. “Ramsey replacement” doesn’t have to mean someone who makes late runs into the box and scores goals. You’re going to struggle to get someone with similar qualities.

 

[Mitch]

I've never been impressed with Gomes, I want us to stay clear. I certainly much rather have Banega.

We need another midfielder anyway, Ramsey isn't leaving.


He was class, we could reinvigorate his career easily.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

I don't want Gomes anywhere near to Arsenal average player.

 

[field442]

We need another midfielder anyway, Ramsey isn't leaving.

Yeah well why you cling on to that, the club are probably looking at replacements for the eventuality that he doesn’t sign in the next few weeks.

 

[Arsenio Venger]

Gomes is horrible
