How do you think the transfer window will go for Arsenal?
Honestly I won’t be surprised if they don’t sign anyone particular major. Plus we should keep in mind that we weren’t able to activate Raya’s buy clause in September or January due to FFP/PSR. My question is knowing that Raya’s loan deal ends by June 30 and the financial year starts on July 1 will the buy clause still be active? Also Newcastle Utd are unlikely to get Ramsdale as they’d rather get Mamardashvilli who’s better according to reports
I thing I can say about artea and edu they have been almost spot on everytime with thier signing, let's not question them now
@@michealmckoy8653 it’s more 55-65% of players they’ve bought or extended that have been successful
What do you know?
If we get Joao Neves & Benjamin Sesko I would be very happy.
Whatever type of players Arteta wants, I want.
What I’ll say is, a good cover for Saka is needed. I’d say Olise is the best option who’ll give Saka a run for his money, and they could even play together. And maybe we’ll get to see some more of Saka’s versatility at play.
Would be a really fun next season, that’s for sure.
I doubt that olise will accept being a backup. I’d love it if he did I just don’t see it
You must be so excited that Tavares and Lokonga have returned to the club right?
@@PaulClarke-dv5sr I honestly only see a future for Lokonga in that squad. Tavares has the physical qualities but is too underdeveloped mentally for Arteta’s gameplay. And that means he’ll probably be sold.
@@vincentfadoju8531 Right. Have you told Mikel this?
@@PaulClarke-dv5sr you are evil bro😂😂😂
Who I think we should sign: Osimhen, Zubimendi, Inacio/Hato
Who I think we will actually end up signing: Sesko, Onana, plus some random 6ft+ European centre back with international experience who can also play fullback and is good with both feet between the age of 21-24
The 2 main questions Arteta needs to ask himself are:
Does he see Jesus as a back up to Saka?
Will he actually give Smith Rowe more game time?
If the answer is no to both questions, we should sell both and go in for Olise 100%
I think Jesus will be used as a back to Saka, but unfortunately think it is also time to let Smith Rowe and Partey move on.
100% agree with you. i personally think we should keep jesus. we should let go Partey, ESR, Zinchenko, and even kiwior. bring in Bruno G, sesko/gykores, hato/diomande
Osimhen would cost the earth. If we're spending big I'd rather go for Isak or Rafa Leao.
He said pursuit not pxssy gents
We’ve come a long way from “Kroenke out” huh lol 😂
LOL yeah we did 😂😂
They’ve become really good owners can’t even lie, especially Josh
They're literally the best owners in sports if you look at success across multiple sports. I really encourage people to look into their other teams if they aren't aware of them. All of them are winning with this same model of recruiting and stacking young talent. The Nuggets were flawlessly built and Josh actually had a lot of say in recruitment because he understands basketball as he was a decent college player. Josh is very hands on but he's aware that he isn't very educated in football so he delegates those responsibilities. They really do mean well, I believe that. They want to win.
I think before it was just an asset for Stan but ever since Josh took over things have been a lot better
@@saranr2176 1 FA Cup in 5 seasons - Amazing!
Arsenal was vocal about mudryk and Chelsea came in and grab him...im good with not knowing b4 hand who we targeting...move in silence
Great point!!
not a fan of Rice in the 8, Rice is at his very best breaking up play, protecting the back 4 and covering gaps and space in midfield when the other team is in an attacking transition, this notion of him playing the Xhaka role leaves so much of his best quality and attributes on the table , just get a proper number 8 and let him sit in the 6 and watch us do major damage next season
It’ll be too boring if he just sits back there…38 clean sheets would be nice though 🤣
He wants to play there
He’s not as good as Partey in the 6 when it comes to activating Ødegaard though…
100% disagree, the player who sits and receives the ball from the CBs and FBs HAS to have elite first touch and superb passing. He might develop those skills but as it stands Rice is better charging around the field. He is not a 6 like a Partey.
Far from wasting his talents, making him play box to box maximises them.
Rice's next development is to play that 8 position he's shown he can, I think it's a waste of his attributes to keep him in the 6 I'd sign a specialist 6 to replace Partey
Sounds more like James doesn't know what Arsenal would do in the window rather than Arsenal not knowing. Makes sense
they always want to hype themselves on youtube. if games was that good at football analytics he would be getting a well paid job in even a championship club let alone a pl club. youtube makes everyone a professional.
You think Arsenal know more about what they want than James? Wow, that's a conclusion both stunning and brilliant.
Surely you get the point I’m making 😂 that this year Arsenal are going to be more flexible with the market and don’t have ONE SET WAY they want to approach transfers… ?
@JamesGoonerverse to be honest, though, Arsenal under Arteta have never been the 'cards on the table' club when it comes to transfers. I like that. Not only is it suspenseful and entertaining, but it also keeps other clubs in the dark - well, at least as much as possible (I believe they know more than we do). Anyway, Arteta has shown over and over again that we should trust him, and that's what I do.
James what’s you thoughts on Joao Neves, Desire Doure , Viktor Gyokeres and Bruno from new castle ?
Me personally, I think a left #8 is the most important transfer for me. Would help Martinelli and give us more balance. Bruno Guimarães imo
I think Bruno is great because we could either go with him or rice at the 6 depending on which one’s better at getting forward as the 8. My issue is that I also think Isak is the perfect striking option for us because he could play out left next to Havertz as well, and we definitely can’t get both. Either way, I think if we can get one of those two along with a new solid winger option (Nico Williams would cover right and left), I think our left side problems would be solved
We need a left back for that balance.
Eze would be our perfect 8/10
@@jakejulian7452 100% agree
@@domagojhrgovic7419 yeah, I hope we get one too
Gabriel martinelli is good player but if a good chance comes we can sell him and sign player with better potential maybe desire doue
Lol😂😂
No keep the Favela Roadrunner * beep beep *
As a striker - Benjamin Šeško from RB Leipzig.
As a winger - Nico Williams from Athletic Bilbao.
As defensive midfield - Amadou Onana from Everton.
Get those three plus any others that Arteta want's and I'd be more than happy for the 2024/25 season.
*#COYGsince66*
We need a center back have you seen Diomande from sporting lisbon hes brillaint exactly like our Saliba, and hes 19
Onana… Nah!
Diomande/ Hato CB
Frimpong very versatile
Bruno Guimares/Kimmich/Douglas Luiz any one 6/8
Xavi Simons 10/RW
Sesko 9/11
Since 66 tho? damn bruh.. Respect
@@zakdavid8526 I agree with all but Wendell will turn 31 in July, too old. He played great against us though
I think we need to buy Diomande-Hato duo and let Zinchenko go. Saliba needs cover. He played every minutes in PL this season and we can't risk his health like this again. Also Zinchenko is no longer reliable. So we need both, center-back and left-back
+ Sesko, Bruno G and Rambo replacement
would be surprised if you can afford 100mil for Bruno G
Diomande is going to cost too much well over 50 million . That's not happening . Majority money will go on a forward as that's what we were missing this season
Verry correct get szceny
Hato And Diamonde
Bruno G
Isak
@@hilarymungure8590 lol that'd cost WELL in excess of £300m for those 5 players.
@@Sss-on2bv We missed midfielder this season xD If Partey stayed fit whole season, we would finish in the first place. We need forward but Partey replacement and new left-back must be priority
When you score 91 goals that means your attack is not that bad, right?
I think we’re gonna prioritise midfield this summer. Gumarieas is who I think we get get with a hato and sesko for the bench
Some saying newc@stle want 200m for Isak smh
overpaying for players no one else really wants
Sesko should be top priority at CF. He’s young, so we don’t have to start him right away, he’s cost controlled, and he has all the tools to be an elite striker- size, two footed finishing ability, pace, and he’s surprisingly good with the ball at his feet. If he didn’t have a release clause, Leipzig would be asking for 90-100M for him.
Completely agree, love the way he moves and his ball striking with both feet is necessary when you realise trossard (and maybe saka) is our only two footed good finisher
Sesko is the guy. I watched plenty of him when he played for RB Salzburg (my hometown club). He's a natural goal scorer, tall, strong, and willing to work hard. With the guys around him, he would be stunning at the Arsenal. He's also financially feasible.
From what I'm seeing online he's our no1 target
Whoever we bring into midfield we won't be finding such a bargain like we did with Partey. I'm personally sad he's going but I totally understand why.
And he’s fast. Faster than our current options. And not that good in the air, surprisingly.
Martinelli isn't reliable as we have seen this season, we need a guaranteed starter in that position
Fantastic video as always. I disagree with your point about how arsenal can go for 3 different types of midfield profiles. I believe we will sign a 6 and rice will permanently move to the 8. In 2024, when we had our outstanding run, rice played in the 8 with a Jorginio of Partey behind him. This could be because rice lacks the incisive passing required for that role.
If you will tell my message to edu show him my opinion…. If I was Mr Arteta this is what I would do. Bring 1.tierney back. Sell players first like nketiah and more. Get issak main priority, get Frankie dejong and xavi simmons
Arsenal should be getting players from Leverkusen, Atalanta n Real Madrid
Those are winning players with the right attitude n mentality. Everything else will lead to another trophy less season.
I told my friends last year no Box to Box after the sale of Xhaka will lead to 0 trophies n I was right
Get Hato and diomande
Get Bruno G
Get isak
Get szecncy on free
Edu and Arsenal know exactly who and what they want.
It's great this channel as its now my one-stop shop for Arsenal Insight.
I've unsubscribed loads of other Arsenal channels and have saved loads of my time.
Get rid of zinchenko
Gyokeres is a must
It's a really good point you make about Arsenal maybe not being 100% sure who there targets are and how much they may have to pay for them; but what will make it easier for them is the draw to the club we have now compared to the last few years.
We are now one of the best clubs in Europe and got very close to the PL title; many quality players will want to play for us
At the end, never say its boring or whatever to support your channel bro!
You share your insights with us - freely & we respect that + want to listen & reciprocate. So its not embarassing or boring. Its just necessary to play the game & support your team.
Never EXPECT anything from Arsenal in the transfer window, you'll only be disappointed.
Considering ESR (fitness and quLITY), Partey (fitness) and Vieria (fitness and quality) seeimgly cannot be trusted or aren't trusted by Arteta, I think we should sign 2 CMs. I don't see the need to sign a defender considering we had the best defence in the league last season without Timber available.
I think we need an 8 to come in and be a starter as Havertz has not adequately replaced Xhaka, and too much of a creative onus falls on Odergaaed. Bruno G or Xavi Simons
A 6 to be a back up or pivot option with Rice. Essentially a Partey replacement. Lavia would have been perfect for this but maybe Neves or Zubamendi could work.
A winger to replace Neslon and provide proper competition with Saka/Martinelli/Trossard.
A clinical striker to replace Nketiah and potentially to be ahead of Jesus and possibly Havertz in the pecking order.
2 forwards (winger and a striker) 2 midfielders (8 and a 6). That's how I would improve the squad.
Weird Planet S#$%
Mbappe signs with Arsenal.
The Football World's Head's Explode.
Just get rid of Nketiah! Some crazy club will have him! Zinchenko?? Another liability!
Rice is NOT a TOP no6! YET.
All the games we dropped points, is because Rice was playing as No6!! As soon as we stopped playing Rice at no6, we won ALL THE GAMES that Rice didn’t play no6.
Yes Rice will eventually learn from Arteta what’s expected of a no6. That’s why Arteta did everything to get Partey and Jorginho who he wanted for a long time while still at City.
If Partey is going, it means Arteta has ALREADY identified the no6 capable to match and surpass the lofty Thomas Partey levels. That’s for sure!
So personally I’m not going to be flustered about new signings, they were identified a long long time ago and lined up. Even those who come up short notice, they’re already thoroughly profiled extensively, and it won’t be a last minute knee jerk. Trossard was not a knee jerk. He was ALREADY well known and loved.
Watch Four Four Two to improve your understanding of why we only dropped points when Rice played as no6 for Arsenal this season…if you didn’t already know that about Arsenal. No need to reinvent a wheel there.
We need class players like Frenkie De Jong to strength our midfield if Odegaard unperform, Zubimendi, Osimhen/Vlahovic, Hakimi/Frimpong to replace White cause he not excellent to bring the league and backup for Saka to win the League, if we don't win the League next season, our players will out if Madrid/Bayern interest to our players like Saliba/Odegaard/Saka
DE = Dave Raum (11 assists)
MC = Joao Neves or Wirtz (depends on the tactic)
Forward = Santiago Gimenez and Jonathan David both +20 goals last two seasons (sell jesus, too many injuries)
I think Arsenal will get 2nd goalkeeper to compete with David Raya (Ramsdale is definitely leaving). Perhaps Bijlow from Fayenoord or Jorgensen from Villareal. Both great 2nd choich goalkeeper I believe.
.
I just have a feeling for the Striker position we are looking at younger profile, say 20-22 years old potential. Brian Brobbey from Ajax is my bet.
.
As for midfield, I think it depends if Partey leaves or not. If Partey leaves, this could be where we spend most in and Im all in for Locatelli or Guimaraes. If Partey stays, a younger option might be more like it.
.
Don’t think we need another LB, unless Zinny leaves. We have Timber and Tomiyasu to compete with Zinny for that LB position. Kiwior can do a good job there as well.
New goalkeeper, striker , LB , CM and a CB .
Out : Raya , Ramsdale , Kiwior , Partey , Rowe and many more.
Wish they could get PL best player "Paqueta" but he goes to City.
Arsenal know..... they're in stealth mode waiting to pounce... Trust the process
I think you're right, James. That being said, I have a good feeling about Sesko. Both in terms of us signing him and how good he'll be.
None of the following is to say that you have to be essentialist to succeed or that adaptability isn’t very useful... but when I look at our squad, I think we're at a point now where we really need to start seeing specialists signed with greater frequency. The club should arrest the rate at which they attempt to compensate for relative lack of financial heft and limited squad depth by prioritising hyper-positional versatility/fluidity... the market for footballers of elite calibre and potentially straddling world class is quite narrow when controlling for these characteristics. While the Havertz signing has worked out, I think the underlying rationale was somewhat ill-conceived... despite almost certainly being signed for putative ability to play in multiple positions from CM to CF (and only ever visibly excelling as a forward or roaming #10), Arteta repeatedly touted him as an 8. As it transpired, he never looked remotely comfortable in that role and probably still would left the team short in midfield build-up with a fully fit, inverting Timber. I'm not unhappy that Havertz is here but a club of Arsenal's stature should not consider it churlish or unrealistic to improve on him at CF. Going forward, we need a higher level of certainty in who we sign... and there is a not-so-tacit admission from club and fans alike that we need to start craning our necks towards the upper echelon. Pending outgoings, I'd say there's space for a maximum of three (solid) back-up level signings. We need to try to push for at least one more unequivocal marquee talent - preferably a forward - and a very, very good CM. Defensive security and an effective but rigid offensive system will only get you so far if you lack players with refined, reliable attributes who can change high profile games against the very best sides. Given all this, I think Arteta and Edu SHOULD know what they want to do quite soon... or at least have a good idea as to what it resembles.
My predictions for Summer Signings is we sign Kadioglu sign Zubimendi Sign Sesko and possibly Olise if Xavier Simons don't work as there was talk about Neto but Apparently he is Injury Prone so we might have to look at other Right wingers
James.., my thought on this, is literally nothing 😂😂 but i love watching your videos. Much love from Uganda
I would really like Arsenal to get Sesko and build on him with Havertz
+Jesus and Nketiah should probably leave (I don’t see them succeeding again)
Arsenal should find Partey replacement,Saliba's super sub,left back,keep smithrowe,jesus and nelson.then sell nketiah,partey and zincheko. No need to buy a striker since kai is good
hey James, whats your thoughts on Boubacar Kamara from Villa? IMO perfect replacement for Partey
Kadoglu, De jong, Sesko, bijlow will be the transfer window.. sorry for the spoilers
James you agent... your name.... do you get money from arsenal? you should. you represent the fans and the club with grace. you could also hang with roadmen because you are authentic. anyways thanks for all your content and common sense.
who is DIDE???? Nketiah?
Must buy young players- Sesko, Xavi Simmons, Zubemendi & Olise
I think we'll be looking at a first choice LB. That's been our 'weakness' at times this season. Zinny isn't good enough defensively and has a little bit of the bozo gene, Tomi isn't available, Kiwior just not quite ready for permanent first team football....
Arsenal know what they want to do… guaranteed. This board is different, they actually plan. That being said, they’ll always be open for good deals if they come up (a la havertz)
The Euros will also dictate the transfer window this year. Suddenly players currently worth 30-40 mil can all of a sudden rise to 80-90 mil.
Dude. Any and every professional club has a priority list for transfers. I find it hard to believe when you say things on the lines of “they don’t know what they want to do.” Arteta and Edu have a reputation of planning from the previous winter. Of course the market brings up sudden opportunities, like Raya last summer. But lack of clarity? I don’t know where you’re getting that from.
Oh. Your feelings. Right. Haha. Cheers.
Bring in Zubimendi (45m)& give Lokonga ago as backup. Then bring in Koopmeiners(45m) .
Then we have Zinc as Sqaud cover Option for LB ,DM,CM & Then get Squad Option ! A left back ( "20m"Gutierrez) , right wing ("40m"J.Bakayoko) & Striker ("70m"Isak) & Goalkeeper ("8m"vanja milinković-savić ) & ("Free"Chris Wood )

Sell or left Club !!
Eddie,Nelson,Marquinhos, Vieira, Elneny, Partey, Tavares ,Tierney, Cedric , Ramsdale, Runarsson,Biereth & So on ..
Yes, I talk Sh*te .... but also, if you could get Xavi Simons on Loan, as PSG wants to seek another spell for him . Try to get it with the option to buy(70m). Then sell Smith-Rowe if this deal is possible
So you want to tell us that Edu, Mikel they do not know what they are going to do this summer transfer window? They don´t know what player they want to add to the squad to go even harder next season really?! Really on RUclips and in social media nowadays anybody can be an expert, knows more than the actual professionals. For me I do know they have already plans on what they´re going to do and their target 1 and B are already in place same when they didn´t get Modryk they went for Trosard and it worked brilliantly. Now I believe them any player they finna bring in I won´t be tripping like I was tripping on Kai.
Rice as 6, find someone as 2nd 10, (wirtz or musiala type) we need dribbler who can strike from long distance
Striker is a priority . Isaak will take us to the title I think . A 20 premier goal a season striker will take us to that level .
Isaak 110 million
Onana 40/50 million
Hato 20/30 million
Reya 27 million
We have a lot of players to get rid of. Ramsdale, Nketiah, Sambi, Vieira, Smith Rowe all need to be sold.
Cover for Saka should be a priority we can't keep expecting Saka to start 45-50 games a season.
Grow your own channel James, I don’t think your future is in AFTV
I dont think its accurate to say Arsenal don't really know what they want to do in this transfer market. Sounds a bit direspectful IMO. The honest truth is, they know, we don't. Everyone else with their theories and predictions, that's just hopes, dreams and wishful thinking. Lets just respect the lads in charge, they have earned that really.
Its simple get rid of the deadwood like Viera, Elneny, zinchenko and Nketiah. Buy a proper striker who has a physical presence, Olise to rotate with Saka and a midfielder that is good on the ball.
We need pace and speed, stop with the zubimendi and Rice as an 8. How about we go get an actual 8 who can score from distance, dribble in tight places, can keep the ball, etc.
We keep trying to shoehorn players into roles that don't fit, then cry when drop points due to experimentation. It's not time to experiment with City on 4 EPL in a row.
What to expect from the Arsenal transfer window!!!! - “I don’t know and I don’t think they know either”
Moving with market to determine the profile we want is not ideal, means we dont know what tactics we want to play. I think they moving with market in terms of who on the list is available at what price eg. bruno g for 70m maybe they do it. Lets his the target and NUFC overprice him we go for backup for 40m and sign striker for big money. They have clarity or atleast an idea man im sorry.
"be excited" was literally about the Pepe deal and nothing else. He came through. I don't know why anyone still mentions it.
Verve, Panache and a killer instinct.
That’s what we need. Edu I hope you are reading.
Like Mr Arteta said we need teeth !
Anyone pushing for guinimares need to give their head a wobble.
Can you imagine a world where an Arsenal player gets away with the fouls this man commits week in and week out? You are having a laugh.
He would be the new if that was xhaka. My guy would play less minutes than partey
Getting Dani Olmo won’t be bad..let Rice just play the number 6
I would sign mitoma,Frankie dejong,Theo Hernandez
We should go for xavi simons as a back up for odegaard and sell or maybe even swap Smith row for him sign osimhen to replace Jesus and make haverts as a backup at left back we should get a player like kadioglu and at the CB we should get diomande
🚨🚨🚨it's official 🚨🚨🚨
Man u have had a better season than Arsenal for two years running!
Arteta out!
I love Declan but he’s not as versatile as us Arsenal fans give credit for. He’s not really a complete 6 in the way we need him to be. He does a lot well but his progressive passing and ability to split lines isn’t in his locker. We need a 6 with those abilities and profile.
To me we need a out an dout number 6 as close to Partey stylistically as possible. I really do not like Rice as the 6 because I feel like we lose a lot of what he gives us when he is freed up. The way he presses high and is able to still get back and defend is a real asset. I think having Rice in advanced areas is a game changer and gives us a real presence and power in that area. None of this is to say Rice is not good as a 6 but we will be wasting some of what he has in that role. I also do think the one area Rice lacks is in ball progression from deep and not so much the passes he makes but the speed he makes them. Partey in particular gets the ball through the midfield a lot faster. Rice is an amazing ball carrier and has so much going for him but what he does lack is a big miss when he is in the 6 role.
I dont know what Arteta intends to do with Timber but I think we need a left back, a number 6 and a striker. The striker would allow Jesus to be the cover for Saka on the right.
We Wanted Stan Out We Got Josh In That's Got Us Excited Like He Said
Left back, Cental Mid and Right Wing are the priority for me.
I think Arteta wants Zinchenko to play in midfield like how he plays for Ukraine
I love Rice as much as anyone but Rice as our nr 6 haven’t worked. For all his great abilities the line splitting passes isn’t the greatest. There is a reason that our losses all had him as a 6 instead of a left 8
I feel the reason why we are not rushing is cos there's a euros and copa America coming which would show us even more options to buy. So we are keeping our cards close to our chest
Arsenal need to sell to buy a top striker. Get rid of the deadwood and buy in strong reinforcements
Just don't sell Zinchenko. He's the only thing we have that other teams will never get elsewhere.
Just don't sell Zinchenko. He's the only thing we have that other teams will never get elsewhere.
Arsenal have clarity on what the want. Let's stop saying the don't.
What he wants is flexible players who can play in different positions.
Fair assessment. But I think the club know & are keeping it close to their chest!
Dream summer combined with realism: Xavi Simons (imperative signing for this squad with his ability to play centrally and on the left wing), Sesko/Ferguson up front ( will probably be sesko but I’d be so tempted to test the waters on the forgotten man Ferguson), Zubimendi because I see him needing little adjustment to our play style and Hato. We need to be creative with the back up keeper as there’s no one we’re desperate for- should look to do a loan deal from a European league with an option to buy
Xavi Simons has been on my mind since March. I’d really like to see him at the emirates
Sesko doesn't really fit with Arsenal's way of playing.
@@lithemban2849 Pause my bro😭. But yeah I would’ve signed him last summer on the cheap. Either him or Kudus. But this summer we need to get another creator and Simons could be as flexible as it gets
@@Alexandre1453of all the strikers available in Europe, seśko is the only one that suits as we exactly play, most others are either "wait in the box for service" strikers or strikers who's strength is on transition (counter attacking pattern) something we don't really do often
Xavi Simmons is perfect for us!! His age profile fits ours, he’s a creative 1v1 player that can make things happen in tight games. He give us cover on the wings and can be another creative midfielder that can ease the playmaking burden for Odegaard in a long season
A slower summer? that's all the transfer window ever is at Arsenal 🥴
Let Mike arteta do what here no is good because if it loss the league next season must go
We don’t have a traditional left back or right back
Any way u can see timber playing in midfield one day ?
We need a striker, RW, a No8, a No6 and maybe one defender
Newcastle want 200 million for isak
Get a Croatian, they're quality players
Thank you for doing these videos!
100% loccatelli is a great choice for a new 6
It may not be as shiny as a new signing but we may be looking within. Nwaneri, ESR, Viera could push for the 8 spot, Patino coming back (if he stays) could be the backup 6 option.
One of Guimares, Kimmich, De Jong would be exciting though
None of those should play 8. They don't have the defensive avareness like Partey or Rice. To play 8 means you need to have a foot inside both trades of the game, and those things about letting them learn the deffensive trade is just like the Wenger days. We have seen through the seasons our best and most stable games are with (Partey-Xhaka), (Rice-Jorginho), (Partey-Rice), not with the likes of Smith-Rowe, Havertz, Viera down there. We always seem to lose the midfield battle when we do that.
@@wabalah1434I am worried we are becoming too focused on physicality. Kdb and Foden have started multiple games together in midfield for city but we can't start Odegaard+ESR/Viera?
@@arvin9425 It's not only about physicality. In case of KDB and Foden they are players of top quality and have high understanding of the defensive side of the game. They are rarely appriciated for it because their offensive game is World Class, so people do not realise their other side. I did though forget to mention those names in the top comment are brilliant options that I would not mind playing an 8 role, Guimares/FDJ/Kimmich. They have quality to do that but Viera and Smith-Rowe nahh. Ødegaard certainly has aswell.
@@wabalah1434 bro come on, compare the defensive stats of kdb+foden to Odegaard+saka, our boys have to work much harder in defense. And thats why I'm concerned, our game model relies so much on physicality and work rate that our attacking players can't shine the way someone like foden does. We need to take some risk and use players like ESR/Viera in midfield to be more innovative in our attack like man city.
@@arvin9425 To have good deffensive awareness is also about positioning. The understanding were to be on the pitch at the right time. Both KVD and Foden have brilliant minds and unfortunately I don't see Viera and Smith-Rowe have that kind of level. If we had someone like De Jong in midfield we would be able to control games better and free up our strikers more frequently. Its about quality players like Rice and Ødegaard who surely have the required level we need. But I am sorry, both Viera and Smith-Rowe do not posses that in my opinion. Free flowing football and getting the results aswell, require worldclass players which Viera and Smith-Rowe are not and will not become. They are good players but not top top.
Rice is best as a b2b, we lost every game rice was the 6
We need a younger Partey in the field...
All good problems to have!
It would be cool to get Cole Palmer
i think Jorrel Hato, Joa Neves or Amadou Onana, Benjamin Sesko, Desire Doue, Biljow. Selling Zinchenko, Jesus, Nketiah, Tierney, Nelson, Partey, maybe ESR. Would have spend for around £230/250 and earned around £160. plus money from CHAMPIONS LEAGUE AND PREMIER LEAGUE, £160 mill, so we earn a lot
Eze anyone, LW slash no. 8
