@arsenescoatmaker : An initial £28mil that could rise to that yeah
That’s a different ketle of fish to £40-50mil mate
Yea okay, but I think those were likely add ons. Much like Buendia’s add ons being likely making him a £40m player. If we get £40m including add ons, I’d probably take that. It’s still a question mark as he is a really good player for us.
I’m talking specifically about Villa here, I don’t think they will offer to pay the figures you mentioned for him.
Whether or not we should accept if they did is a different matter.

Well it depends. If they’re in the market for ESR, they’re probably selling GRealisch for big money so maybe they thing Grealisch = Buendia + ESR. And they’ll have the cash if that’s the case

Onana and Sambi Lokonga make so much more sense than Ben White and James Maddison. I’m still confused why/how they think those two players are the best options available on the market. At least from a viewpoint when you probably need 100 million pounds to get them both.

We just love buying midfielders who don’t score goals don’t we.

Indeed we do haha, still think we need someone of that profile especially with Xhaka hopefully out the door soon.
But yeah we need the attacking midfielder too, Maddison can’t be the only option out there.

Pretty clear to me we need to sign Mæhle and Damsgaard

Good thing you don’t sign someone based on their hairline
I wouldn’t rule it out. Our transfer strategy is a bit random - it could be the missing link that ties it all together.

If I was in charge, I’d definitely do that. Rob Holding would be shown the door and Aaron Ramsey and Giroud would be welcomed back with open arms.

Maybe you should though. I bet we didn’t even check Gerbeanhos hairline during his medical. That was a dead giveaway be was shit.

We should only sign players who score bangers so I think Damsgaard and Mæhle are a good start, and Mæhle shares my first name so that’s an added bonus

I’m still convinced that if we just play better football goals will follow from everywhere on the pitch. Not just the forward line. We are so, so bad at creating chances. In most of his seasons here Vieira only scored 2 or 3 League goals.

The last player we bought from Denmark, who scored a banger in the Euros, was Jensen and it took him about ninety games to get a goal for us.

He would cost so much though he seems the profile we are looking at right now, (young, English PL talent).

Would take DCL, think he has a high ceiling and would be an instant upgrade on Lacazette.
But again like with White and Maddison if you have to pay 50 million pounds for him, surely you can and will find a cheaper player with the same potential?
