He's left footed too, very injury prone though, but if it was a loan then it could work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He really isnt, maybe 5 years ago yes but now would be a big fat no. Mings is way ahead of him now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His contract expired in 2023 so they tried to buy him out and he refused, Best solution was to give him a new contract until 2026 with a paycut but gets money over time Tony Xia economics 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well they are at least 2 years ahead of us anyway. Arteta had a tough couple of seasons building his squad and playing style and its started to pay off. We don't need Zinchenko anyway, we've got Carney . Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol Without going off topic I thought Arsenal were probably one of the dullest teams to watch last season along with ourselves and Bruceball Newcastle. Them bottling Champions League and Arteta gets praised for it Maybe Jesus will get them into the Champions League but I think they will fight United for 5th 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No we don’t Kamara will turn out to be our most astute signing this window the question will be can we keep hold of him as he develops. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players come and go. As long as we can make a good profit on them and bring in adequate replacements it's not a problem. If Kamara lives up to the hype then we would be selling him for £50+m. Considering he was free that would be incredible business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustibrooks Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 I can’t believe Aouar is going for 11/12 mill! I’d like him here but I’ve always questioned why he hasn’t moved from Lyon after all of these years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anybody is questioning Kamara's undoubted talent or ability, just that he might not hit the ground running as people are expecting, or if he gets injured or suspended we are back to the same midfield 3 of last season, which was quite frankly, crap.

I hope you are right, be amazing if he starts well and can maintain it for a full season. If I was in Gerrard's position I would want cover and decent cover at that. Relying on Nakamba, Chambers and Douglas, even McGinn had a go at it last season, is a big risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
