If we lost every pre-season game, the rhetoric would be completely different. Utd fans would know a lot about that
Arteta would’ve used pre-season to determine which players he can trust in his first 11. So he’s already made judgements about the new boys too.

you don’t think Havertz can do the job there?

This is why I think having another winger that excels in 1v1s is essential.

Can’t wait for him to be starting again, missed Zinky a lot.

Gvardiol’s international teammate…he’s really good when it comes to building from the back

Dean’s an idiot. He genuinely thinks we’ll sign another 5 players.

Mikel loves a CB, doesn’t he?

only 24, really not in a rush to sell him.
give him one more season to prove his fitness
I doubt we break even on him.
Timber is literally 3x the footballer

Serie A clubs are skint. If we sell him next summer it has to be a prem club. We should be able to get at least 30m. Tomi is a very very good player.

We shouldn’t even entertain selling him. Would much rather him in the mix than guys like Holding or Tierney.

They can try but I doubt we’ll be open to sell without a good offer and a replacement in mind.
Tomi is the perfect defender to have on the bench. He’s incredibly versatile and is well versed with our tactics being here the past two seasons.

He also doesn’t represent a huge talent dropoff or require a change in how we play.
I know I rag on Holding a lot but he and Tierney just can’t play the way we want to play.
Ansu another transfer saga begins.

Well, we ended up signing one more player after all, and without significant sales yet either. And it’s not even the position most of us expected.
So let’s try this one final time, do you think we’ll sign anyone else beyond Rice, Havertz, Timber and Raya?
Yes, two or more signings
Yes, one more signing
No
I can see one more signing, either a RW or Striker
