AWB is honestly as good as any full back in the world as a defender but he’s possibly the most useless FB of any of the top clubs in Europe when he crosses the half way line.

AMN is not as good as any fullback in the world defensively ffs. Why does this have three likes in 17minutes.
OH THANK FUCK. AWB, as you were. I was about to have a full blown aneurysm

AMN is better than this offensively to be fair to him. He can beat a man, and he puts in some good crosses as shown at the weekend.
But yeah, his numbers defensively are also pretty good but he still needs to keep working.
I see potential for him there though. He should now give up any CM dreams, too many players for those spots. Better players for MF.

Fair play for not deleting
He’s been dog piss for Juventus. Looks like he hasn’t played football for about 6 years and is struggling to get up to speed with the game again.
Having actually watched him this season I’m not really actually sure what he does well

Rabiot has never been anything special. His performance against that disastrous Barcelona display in the 4-0 was possibly the most overrated performance I can recall
Footmercato like fichajes links really should not be posted lol

He’s a nothing player, much more trouble than he’s worth.
Binning him off and singing de Jong (reportedly against Valverde’s wishes smh) is one thing that Barca actually got right.

Yep yep.
His agent probably making noises again, but this bum has been well and truly found out at Juve. Keep him quarantined away thanks.
This Juve midfield isn’t that deep, and if he can’t break in, it says a lot.
I’d definitely take him on a loan if Xhaka leaves.
Isn’t his mom his agent but also kinda nuts? Not sure we need any more drama at the club.

Arteta is expert at dealing with mother’s. He can sense when a woman is going to be irrational just by observing their breathing for a few brief moments. An essential skill for a modern football manager/head coach.

What do people think of Timo Werner if we lose Auba? Would he be available in summer and for now much?

Liverpool get linked with him a lot. Looks good and very promising. Don’t think he’d come here tbh.

What are peoples thoughts on Jovic? Does his style of play fit into what we believe Arteta wants from his players?
From the Athletic this morning…
Although happy with their attacking options, The Athletic understands Arsenal are looking to strengthen in both defence and midfield. After their vast expenditure in the previous window, there is however an acceptance that they may have to be creative when it comes to finding solutions.
For some weeks now, Arsenal have deemed central midfield to be an area in need of urgent attention, and Arteta is expected to concur with that assessment. While hopes remain high for Matteo Guendouzi and Joe Willock, there are doubts over the future of the other three central midfielders in the squad.
Given the budgetary restrictions they are operating under, it may be a case of ‘one in, one out’ in the Arsenal midfield. Xhaka is the most likely to depart, with reports suggesting he may well return to the Bundesliga.
Near the top of Arsenal’s shopping list is a new centre-half, although again the club are unlikely to add another without at least one — most likely Shkodran Mustafi — moving on.
Arsenal are believed to be one of several English clubs monitoring the progress of 21-year-old Lille centre-back Gabriel Magalhaes. The 6ft 3ins left-footed Brazilian was recently called up to the country’s under-23 squad alongside Gabriel Martinelli, with a view to competing in next summer’s Olympics. Arsenal have a relationship with Lille, having brokered the Nicolas Pepe deal in the summer. Unfortunately, Gabriel’s potential involvement in the Olympic qualifying tournament in Colombia would mean him missing five Arsenal games. It may rule him out of contention.
Although rumours are already swirling about the futures of both Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette, it would take a very attractive offer for Arsenal to consider letting either of their two principal goalscorers leave. It is however a situation that will be revisited in the summer, when Aubameyang will have just 12 months to run on his contract.

Brazilian centre back called Gabriel? Fool me once, motherfucker…

Seems he can finish but not entirely sure how his physical attributes would fair in the PL, there’s an air of a Lacazette-esque striker about him in that it’s questionable whether he would be able to get optimal separation and requisite burst to maximise his goalscoring ability.
