Latest paper rumors this morning state that Wenger wants Tammy Abraham from Chelsea (on loan at Bristol City) . Is that really our ambition? Also, Jordan Pickford. Is he on the radar? Amazing keeper.

I'm sure Ed002 said he was last summer. Heard Everton are most likely to sigh him but we really should go in for him. Rate him highly and at 23 would be a great signing.

i think he's a coup if we can get him. he's a killer in the box and imo will be better than welbeck for sure. but i'd want another striker aswel as him. hopefully sanogo goes.

I was talking about Pickford btw. Not heard much about the other lad. I'm sure sanogo will be gone as his contract is up soon.

Agree0 Disagree1

Ah yes sanogo, i'm sure he will be ready to lead the line for us next season after his apprentiship. One for the future. Lol.

I absolutely hate it when we're linked with a promising young player and people start blathering about a lack of ambition. These same people would be talking shite if we signed Mbappe last summer and Kante the summer before.

"An 18 year old unknown French player? Is this really the height of our ambition? "

Ugh.

Ed, what is happening with reagrds to lukaku? He is surely leaving. Will arsenal go for him. Where he might end up in your view?

{Ed025's Note - it looks odds on he will leave everton rohit, arsenal are not in the running for him though as the price will be too high and he wants CL football, chelsea still look favourites to land him although united are apparently interested mate..

Lukaku supported Chelsea as a boy, it would be his prefered destination. I do not see him joining Man U because of Mourinho.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed025's Note - it will depend on chelsea,s interest in dembele of celtic 5HB, and of course how much mino raiola can screw each team out of, he made over £40m from the pogba deal and will probably want a massive cut from romelu,s transfer mate..

17 May 2017 07:27:59
Possibly. But Morata is Conte's No 1 choice, it depends whether he goes for both. Bear in mind Conte is building to win the CL next season, he may therefore prefer both.

In my view he is looking for players who are an upgrade to what he currently has. I do not see Dembele heading to Chelsea.

Agree0 Disagree0

im happy to miss out on lukaku.

Agree1 Disagree1

Im quite certain that whatever happens this season wenger is staying. i'm also quite certain that he can't do any better than he has done recently. i'm also certain that he will get even less leeway with the fans. The Emirates next season will be a bear pit. Not something I am looking forward too.

The problem facing Arsenal next season will be no CL. No TOP player will join. I expect Sanchez to leave.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed025's Note - arsenal is still a big draw for players 5HB, but they will have to pay top dollar for the best players and im not sure they will want to get into bidding wars mate..

17 May 2017 07:38:32
Ed025 - Man U have had a scatter gun approach to transfers for the past 4 years and in the end they have had to pay way over the odds for players and/ or salaries, eg. Pogba and Zlatan.

I do not see Wenger following that model and because of that he will not attract the TOP stars. Another key issue is the lack of success both domestically and in Europe, PLUS the magnitude of defeats Arsenal have suffered in Europe. This will all be factors on players minds.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed025's Note - im sure it will 5HB but lets not forget the history and stature that the club have, they are still one of the biggest draws in the game mate and many a good player would give their right arm to play for the arsenal, lets just hope its not a keeper.. :)
