Arsenal transfers 25/26

They wont be selling him no way

Reckon it’s more likely next year, he’s still played a lot and won’t be fed up yet.

Doue and him shared the minutes since kvara came in. Both young and in a top team so I think we’d have to tempt them with a high bid for Barcola.

I wouldn’t have signed him last summer but I would now.

I always felt Madrid tax overhyped him.
However, I disagree that we’ve seen his level. If anything, I think he’s still had ways to go as he was raw in certain areas and inconsistent week to week but it was never really acknowledged because Madrid was doing great and the few good performances in the CL outweighed the other underwhelming ones.

I think this season has humbled him quite a bit. I think he knows where he’s at now and he’ll probably have a chip on his shoulder at his next club.

Apparently Pep is a big fan and Liverpool are in the market for a top forward so I think they’ll be in the mix for him this summer.

Pep was also a big fan of nunes then call him too dumb to play midfield lol

I don’t think for the price he will cost it’s worth it, although he is only 1 year older than nico really so not much difference in their development stage tbf. It just feels like Rodrygo’s already been around for yonks and plateaued.

Still very young. Look at Dembele.
The environment is key.

It is worth pointing out that there’s a WC next year. It’s gonna factor into the decision of these players.

True, put big Brad back on the table then.

Is he better than martinelli on the left?

I ask not to make any point, I’m genuinely clueless as to how he is nowadays.

He was great in the 2022 cl run

You tell me, can Martinelli do that?

yes, yes he can :henry2:

Tbf, Martinelli used to go on these runs in the past but it usually involves donkey touches catching players off guard.

You won’t find a bigger Martinelli fan on here than me: he isn’t in the same stratosphere as Rodrygo though.

Ok, so if you could sign Rodrygo, Barcola, or Nico Williams, who are you opting for in the summer? Forget availability and transfer fees for a second…purely on talent, who would you want at Arsenal?

His goal against Chelsea was never a good goal. I’ve always hated how much people seemed to rave about it. Guys been a donkey since then

If we were talking purely on talent I would probably go Leao over all of them but he’s a wasteman.

From those 3 I think Williams has the highest ceiling.

Of course you go for a player outside those three :rofl: As I think you have said before, I think Leao would be a nightmare for Arteta so can’t see that!

I do like the look of Nico Williams though. Arteta still seems keen.

Completely hypothetical, but what if Raphinha was available in the summer? Would that change your view?

Rodrygo or Raphinha would be dream signings.

The other two would be decent.

Madrid will be getting a new manager, who I’m sure will fight to keep a talent like Rodrygo.

Ancelotti had no power over signings or keeping players, doubt the next guy would either.

This is Perez we’re talking about, Di Maria had his best season at Madrid, helping the team bring La Decima, and then sent him packing in the summer because he got a hard-on for James Rodriguez during the World Cup.

Fun fact, Ancelotti was also the manager back then. :rofl:
Imagine when he broke him the news.

Either of Rodrygo or Nico for LW and I’d be fucking over the moon.
