I feel confident that Jesus will happen. The best wages are either at a big European vanity club or in the EPL. Liverpool won’t want him, Chelsea and Spurs are in slow decline , Arsenal are on the up.
I think attacking signings will excite but we’ll get two and won’t replace Pepe. Reiss Nelson may be kept for cup ties.
I’m expecting disappointment elsewhere. If Saliba comes back then we’ll only go for a LB maximum or even keep Lopez at the club as back-up. In the middle, we’ll replace Xhaka if he goes. Which, I think he will. Europa Cup gives us a chance to keep some of the younguns at the club.
Bellerin, Holding, Leno, Xhaka, ANM, Torreria, Nketiah, Laca all played their last games for us.
Btw, I think it’s common knowledge that if we sign Jesus and another striker for top money, they’ll both be starters in the team right?
ESR and Martinelli pushed out of the first team here.
Quite brave to say Spuds are in decline when we’ve finished out of the Top 4 while they are going to get a boost from it. They beat us to Kulusevski, albeit with Conte as a pull, but they potentially can beat us out for anyone they come in for at the same time as us, but the plus in their case is they already have Kane and Son, and neither look to be going anywhere this summer now.
They didn’t beat us to Kulusevski. Kulu was discussed for this summer, Spurs went in for him hard in January while Juve was desperate for money to sign Vlahovic and got him.
Yeah it’s just a pro wishful thinking bias Arsenal comment trying to talk themselves into thinking a 7th consecutive spurs season above us won’t happen.
