Ed002, thank you for your time and patience. If this Question has already been asked I do apologize. Are Arsenal still interested in Martin Zubimendi?

Quoth the raver nevermore

{Ed002's Note - Interest will have moved on.}

Is Ivan Toney a target for The Arsenal?

Quoth the raver nevermore

{Ed002's Note - He was scouted but won't be moving to Arsenal.}

Hi Eds was wondering if the club now have Ceballos in their long term plans. His quality is there when healthy and Arteta seems to value what he brings to the side.

Quoth the raver nevermore

{Ed002's Note - Dani Ceballos (CM) agent is investigating other options as the player is edging away from signing for Arsenal who would like to keep him. It is about direction, opportunity and the future. The idea is he gets another loan, gets to the Euros, gets to talk options with Real Madrid and the decides on a practical way forward - perhaps with a progressive side like Real Betis. Else he needs to look to stay at Arsenal on loan perhaps as money is a major issue.}

Cheers Ed, great info as always.

Ed's do you see Malcom leaving Bordeaux in this transfer window? And if so has Arsenal remained interested or have they moved on to others?

Quoth the raver nevermore

{Ed002's Note - There is a clear intention for him to move this summer but I am doubtful he would move to Arsenal unless other clubs step away. Arsenal's interest is away from Malcom right now.}


1.) 14 Jun 2018 11:50:56
Cheers Ed thanks for the info.


2.) 14 Jun 2018 13:11:45
ED any idea if we’re planning on a marquee signing? For example Dembele.

{Ed002's Note - Clubs don't plan on marquee signings to appease the fans.}


3.) 14 Jun 2018 15:37:50
Apart from Barcelona, Madrid and United off course. Let me re phrase then. Do Arsenal have there eye on any player closely regarded as world class?

{Ed002's Note - I have no idea which players you consider "world class".}


4.) 14 Jun 2018 21:39:07
Is it Pavon we want?

One has to wonder how the looming Griezmann decision could affect Arsenal. This is pure speculation but if Griezmann opts to make the switch to the Nou Camp it will surely be for an astronomical fee (perhaps Atleti is preparing for his exit which is why they already snatched up Lemar) . Now Lemar doesn't fill the void left at striker if/ when Griezmann departs and there was heavy interest in Lacazette by Atleti before he signed with Arsenal (correct me if I'm wrong but Lyon and Atleti had a fee agreed upon but could not navigate around a transfer ban? ) . if Arsenal could recoup the fee, or sell him for more than what they paid, for Lacazette by selling to Atleti maybe they go after Malcom or even Dembele, either of which would probably fit better into this side than Lacazette does with PEA now here.

Quoth the raver nevermore

1.) 13 Jun 2018 05:29:49
Without Lacazette Arsenal only have one good striker. Laca and PEA are both clearly excellent players and selling one would be a huge mistake if we're serious about breaking back into top 4 and winning the Europa.

PEA is also comfortable on the left wing which fills a big void as we still don't have any solid wingers except up and coming Nelson. Front 4 of Laca/ PEA/ Mkhi/ Ozil backed up by 2 deep mids including Torreira and Ramsey (? ) is mouthwatering.


2.) 13 Jun 2018 07:22:01
Selling Lacazette would be very very stupid.
Chelsea - Morata, Giroud,
Man Utd - Lukaku, Rashford (& Sanchez can play striker) .
Man City - Aguero, Jesus

Arsenal - Pierre Emerick Aubameyang and Lacazette!

You can't rely on one good striker.


3.) 13 Jun 2018 10:02:58
Spurs - Kane and?
Liverpool - don’t even have a traditional “striker”
‘16 Leicester City - Vardy +?

Arsenal would be just fine with PEA and Welbeck.


4.) 13 Jun 2018 11:10:57
Totally agree Q, 2 into one won't go and trying make it do so will cause more problems than it solves.
I doubt very much Emery will play 4 forwards next season no matter how many posters try and find a way of getting all our attackers on the pitch at once in the real world this isn't going to happen.


5.) 13 Jun 2018 12:38:35
Liverpool and Spur are very vulnerable with there lack of options on top.

Son makes a good alternativ for Spurs, but not great.

Liverpool have been lucky that Firmino has been fit most of the season. If not they would have to play Solanke. (Firmino, by the way is a typical striker supported by two inward forwards, wich means he sometime fall back into a false nine. )

Leicester played 4-4-2 and had Okazaki/ Ulloa, who complemented Vardy perfect and had different skills according to the game they played.

Anyway it makes no sense to sell Laca if not replaced by a different type if that is prefered. Rather sell Welbeck and get a Giroud/ Llorente/ Austin type of player (tall, strong, leathal in the box when pressing for a goal)


6.) 13 Jun 2018 12:55:45
The point was you don’t need two strikers of such quality to compete in the premier league. And the whole thought process of selling Lacazette would be to replace him with a winger who could bag double digit goals.


7.) 13 Jun 2018 16:52:52
Pea and Lacasette are the wrong age and far too good to play back up.
Pea is a Rolls Royce striker why turn him into a porche wide player to accommodate a poche striker? That makes no sense at all.
Pea will not rotate and will make his feelings clear when he ain't happy just ask Dortmound.
The reason we were able to get him above more successful teams is because of his temperament which scared many potential buyers off.

Don't make Pea angry, you wouldn't like him when he's angry :-)


8.) 13 Jun 2018 18:01:34
PEA seems quite accommodating of lacazette, I would rather try and find a way to fit them both in and if one gets injured we still have the other, imagine if you sold laca and PEA suffered a bad injury early on, welbeck sole striker for the whole season, I barely trust him to put his shoes on the right feet.


9.) 13 Jun 2018 21:48:13
You could play Ozil behind Pea and Lacasette as a front 3 but I think we will have to wait and see how Emery wants to set us up before we really have idea what and who we need.
I personally think he's going to Want to make us much more difficult to beat first and foremost.

Gabriel must be one unhappy bunny seeing as he just signed a new contract ?.

Quoth the raver nevermore

{Ed014's Note - was thinking the same mate, never seen him with anything but a big smile on his face.

Let’s get Saka, Martinelli and Saliba signed up before the break for the World Cup!


1.) 21 Oct 2022 18:24:48
I thought he wanted out so was said in here.

{Ed014's Note - it was mate but not by any of us gooners!

14, gunners 247 are reporting Saka has agreed a new 5 year 200k a week contract in principle.

Ed002 could you give us a quick run down on what your idea of a perfect date would be?

Quoth the raver nevermore

{Ed002's Note - Of course March 19, 2003 - all prime numbers.}


1.) 06 Feb 2022 00:53:14
Impressive!


2.) 06 Feb 2022 10:31:38
9 is an impressive number.

2 9s are 18 add the 1 and 8 together and you get?

3 9s are 27 add the 2 and 7 together and you get?

And so on

I'm easily fascinated and impressed as you can tell ???.


3.) 08 Feb 2022 22:05:22
I do like a prime number, trying to think which is my favourite, but my loyalties are divided….

Sell:
Bellerin
Kolasinac
Willian
Mavropanos
Runnarson
Xhaka
Saliba
Nketiah
Maitland-Niles
Guendouzi
Torreira
Lacazette (if he can't be extended a year)

Loan:
Nelson
Willock ( be crazy to sell him after the loan spell at Newcastle he's just had )

Buy:
Bissouma
Buendia
Woodman
Mazraoui
Tapsoba
Locatelli.

Quoth the raver nevermore

1.) 01 Jun 2021 05:50:32
Hard to disagree with any of that, but I do think we could get a tune out of Saliba. Kid hasn't even had a shot yet and he deserves one. Ditto Mavropanos.

Never watched any of Mazraoui or Locatelli but happy to be convinced. Looks like we may end up going for Aouar instead of the latter.


2.) 01 Jun 2021 07:28:38
I think aouar would be awsome for us.


3.) 01 Jun 2021 10:50:21
Aouar-some! 😂👌🏼

We definitely need a Cazorla/ Fabregas sorta player. Someone who can see a pass n thread it from distance.


4.) 01 Jun 2021 11:19:41
His market value is about 40 million, be interesting to see 1) if that is what Lyon would ask
2) if we would consider that amount for someone so young and with so little International experience

Clearly a talented young lad.

Just don't see it with Pepe. Never have since he's been with the team.

Quoth the raver nevermore

1.) 17 Oct 2020 19:24:40
He is a waste mate I’m afraid.


 

 

05 Oct 2020 21:56:24
With Partey now coming in, and assuming Arteta sticks with a 3-4-3, what does everyone think our best starting XI? I'm not sure Partey and Xhaka fit into the same side together so I'll say:

Leno
Luiz-Gabriel-Tierney
AMN-Partey-Ceballos-Saka
Pepe-PEA-Willian.

Quoth the raver nevermore

1.) 05 Oct 2020 22:09:41
Leno
AMN, Luiz, Gabriel, Tierney
Xhaka, ceballos, partey
Pepe, auba, saka.


2.) 05 Oct 2020 22:15:56
Arteta will rotate depending on oppents, fixture pile ups and how players train, it's his management style.

Yes how utterly ruthless of Arsenal to expect Saliba to honor the contract he willingly signed. The nerve of this club!

You can’t possibly blame me for his shortcomings as an “insider”.

Quoth the raver nevermore

{Ed014's Note - you speak from pure ignorance fella and just make yourself look an utter arse!

Ed02 has a massive amount of knowledge, information and contacts in the world of football.

I don’t need you to believe that, I simply know it as fact from our Ed’s chat group and the circles in which he works.

If he doesn’t want to or can’t give specific information about something that’s a choice he has every right to make.

If you just want to make smug pointless comments because of your ignorance then continue to follow the clueless ITK’s on Twitter which clearly floats your boat.

Love willock’s energy and ability to to find the open spaces on the pitch. Once he refines some of the technical aspects to his game I think his confidence will grow and at that point will only be a matter of time until he’s a regular in the starting XI. There’s a reason Bayern were in on him last year.
