Yeah, think it was good planning to loan Ceballos again. Saves some of our transfer fee so we can now simultaneously strengthen other areas of the pitch, and if Ceballos has a decent season, we could look to sign him permanently next summer.

Again, I think the sticking point is Real Madrid, not us. I think we probably would sign him permanently if it was an available option.
He’s their player and they are playing it in a way that suits them best, can’t blame them really.
But generally speaking, Madrid and Barcelona can go fuck themselves.

So no Gabriel or Ceballos against Fulham 
Will probably be a hard fought 0-0 against a new promoted team, the Arsenal way.
Yeah, it’s very much likely that is the case. Could be a blessing in disguise for us though, as we get his services for one more season while still getting another season to judge if he’s worth the money RM will eventually demand for him(which could yet rise next summer if he has a blinder of a season, but that’s the chance we gotta take I guess).

good start, at least we’re now back to square one with our midfield lol
now to actually improve on it (last year’s midfield).

Gonna be awkward when Bellerin leaves. They seemed pretty close.

Yeah, but sure he will overall be happier when he sees AMN beasting it on that right hand side.

Wasn’t Dani renting a house from Bellerin last season, and are pretty much best friends?
Dani would feel the loss but he’s also more settled now with the manager and other teammates which should help

I think if he can leave his home country, he should be okay if one of 25 players leaves. Think he’s proved he’s grown up now.
He’s gonna play his balls off for a spot at Euro 2020 so he should be fine for next season.
My worry is that he has shown to be a bit homesick. Especially towards Betis. Wouldn’t be surprised if that’s where he goes next. Probably being a captain of that project.
Sick of Unai Emery ≠ homesick
It is Senor Emery please.
Somehow this means Ceballos is coming back officially

Nice to get this one out of the way.
Now we wait to see who’s coming in next. 
Bit of a strange announcement?
