The team you posted is the stuff of nightmares. We'll be fighting for 6th place.

Tierney can come tho.


Cos he couldn't cut it at top level? you have never seen him play have you, just guess work, the guy is just greedy like Oscar and co.

2016 he was one of the best wingers around, then took the pay cheque.

Auba almost went there last season also, is that cos he can't cut it?

Hes a left sided inside forward though, not sure if he can play right.

Would love him and Fraser. I think that legitimizes us going forward. But with a limited bank roll I expect Anderson and maybe these cat. Praet rumor is only one that doesn't make sense to me but I also don't know much about that guy.

Fraser and Praet would be horrific purchases imo and a gigantic waste of money

Especially the dwarf

Fraser is fine, he had the 2nd most assists in the league last year, but if we were only to get 1 i'd much rather have Carrasco because he has that star quality like our other attackers, I don't undertsand how we would operate with Fraser and Bellerin on the same side though because Bellerin can't defend.

Praet is a weird one, i thought we wanted a box to box player, not another lightweight playmaker.

Fraser isn’t fine. He literally cannot beat a man. 5 of his assists came from set pieces.

He’s a transition player who thrives in a lot of space with nothing to do but cross the ball, this simply doesn’t happen when you’re an Arsenal player

It would be the first sign for me that Raul has no idea what he’s doing and we’re going to be shit for many years to come

Deadass would banish Iwobi to the touchline again than bring in Fraser.

Carrasco wouldn't be bad if we can get his best Monaco form.

I’ve always liked Carrasco. But would he fit Emery’s style (whatever that is)?

Maybe, but i think hes going for function for his style rather than big name players.

Zaha is the man we should get because him alongside our other 2 front men would be terrifying, but Carrasco has similar attributes, mainly pace and tricks that can stretch a game.

I think he wants a inside forward to pair with Auba-Laca and he wants a plan 'B' true crossing style winger to come off the bench because we don't have one at the club.

Also probably the reason hes looking at proper fullbacks so when he changes shape he can take Bellerin off to facilitate a winger.

I might be completely wrong and Emery dumps Carassco on the right as a winger, if thats the case i'd rather someone else because the conflict of Bellerin and a right winger would be stupid and we would get hammered on the break.

Not to mention that we do not have a target man at the club.

Someone DM’d his teammate and asked if he was joining Arsenal in January

He said he wanted to leave them

He asked him again a couple of days ago and he said he’s joining Arsenal looool
