    Merino just turned 28. Euro winner, knows PL and is experienced. Add Gyokeres next and potently Pedro Neto or Leroy Sane. Then Arsenal is completed as a team to win major trophies!

    Sesko was likely the target and we might be happy to wait till next season
    Judging by the Nico profile, I'd say we need a progressive and direct winger like Doku so someone like Sane would be perfect IMO
    Sane is:
    1. Prem proven and puts up good numbers
    2. Left footed so can cover Saka but is also able to play on either wing
    3. One year remaining on his contract
    4. Knows Mikel well
    5. Direct style of play

Sure havertz misses chances but every striker has these issues, even haaland. We really needed a xhaka replacement last season which merino could be. We needed a more defensively solid left back option which we could have in Calafiori. Now we just need a rw backup for saka or else we're gonna see him drop off around the last 10 games of the season as usual and it's not even his fault.

    I like Merino a lot, fans just lack the vision. This is exactly who we need. I don't like that we lost a 16 year old academy phenom though, I can tell you that much. He thinks he'll get more upward mobility to the first team in a mid table team like UTD, I get that but still he should've been convinced to stay.

    We're good defensively...
    I think Fabian Ruiz would be better for us attacking wise
    Merino is slightly better than Ruiz defensively but Ruiz is better in attacking
    Driving, dribbling and flair which i think we really need since we are already so solid defensively
    Except Zinny starts in the LCM on some games or CAM and Nwaneri too in the midfield in some games
    Fabian Ruiz as loan deal with obligations to buy later makes spending room for a marque forward signing too
    I trust Arteta and Edu though 😊

    Jesus and Nwaneri can play on each wing as options with Toney and Havertz our striking options… Trossard central to deputize for Odegaard is something nice

    Arsenal need a proper backup for Martinelli who can compete in that position also a proper no.9 is needed. Last season it was that Christmas period where we couldn't score and lost games cost us the league. You can't rely on Havertz every game he isn't a consistent scorer especially against low block defence.

    The best striker option for Arsenal is someone to replace Nketiah not someone to replace Havertz. I'd like to see Taiwo Awoniyi from Forest in an Arsenal shirt. He's a clinical finisher, physical striker and has blistering pace... Could easily overtake Jesus as 2nd choice. But we need a striker that won't demand to play (no ego) and that's willing to fight for their place.

      @@stephensonwhite7963 Firstly, you should note that Havertz isnt our best striker, he plays because he fits our system better than any of our other choices. Secondly, simply taking Haaland, for example, and making him our striker will interrupt our style of play hence i don't think we need a Superstar striker, all we need is a clinical option off the bench when the tactics aren't working.

      When you see Havertz being the highest earner, you know it’s only because Arteta wants him to play a huge role and there’s nothing we can do about it other then support and trust.

    There won’t be any CF’s signed this summer. Havertz is our CF and Arteta is happy with him. We need wide attacking options, Nelson and Trossard aren’t good enough to rotate with Saka/Martinelli plus Martinelli might have another poor season. Yes Merino is a reasonable signing but is he the player we were missing last season…..I don’t think so.
