Hi Ed, with the devastating news of Welbeck (gotta feel for him) , do you see Wenger finally getting a striker this summer?

{Ed001's Note - yes.}

Ed do we have any interest in Lucas Perez? I know one of you said a while back we had interest but he had only just moved to Depertivo. Thanks 101.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - the interest remains yes.}

Any word on who they might be looking at, Ed? I'd love Zlatan for a couple of seasons, but don't see it happening with his wages.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - apart from Lucas Perez, there is Paco Alcacer of Valencia though their poor season might have seen his star fallen a bit. Muniain and Inaki Williams of Athletic Bilbao, Cedric Bakambu of Villareal. Guidetti, previously of Man City, Wenger has wanted him checked to see how he gets on, as he thought he had a lot of potential when younger. Perez of Newcastle. Icardi as well. Off the top of my head those are ones I know you have had scouted a fair but this season. It is well known Wenger loves both Benzema and Higuain as players too, but would not need to scout either.}

Any names ed?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - sorry bit slow, I was spending some time with family yesterday so didn't get a chance to type one out as it is difficult to do on a phone!}

Much appreciated ed 👍.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - glad to help.}

Morata?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - yes but I don't believe that he is within reach right now.}

Ed, i heard that Frank de Boer leaving Ajax.

Is he will be the new manager for Arsenal?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed001's Note - I have not heard anything of that, I was told he believes he will be pitching for the Everton job and thinks he will be appointed. Whether that is bluster on his part or not, I could not tell you, as he did leave Ajax under a cloud after failing.}

The Dutch are very self confident if nothing else, I'm sure de Boer is above himself.

Agree0 Disagree2

{Ed002's Note - Still sharing the pig ignorance then.}

What a stupid comment.

Andy Andy, like Ed001, I've read that De Boer is in the running for the vacant Everton position. His agent is quoted as saying he would definitely be interested in the job.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - there is also Inter available.}

In not sure if you mean me being ignorant Ed but not my intention, think I remember de boer touting himself for a job in England quite publicly in the past, could be wrong.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - How well do you know de Boer? Presumably very well to be making such statements about him. May experience of him is totally different.}

Hi Ed sorry just seen this, no I don't know him, hands up it was a wayward comment. I'm not one for normally sharing pig ignorance, I'm hurt, I thought we was tight Ed 😢😉.
