Can add Bailey to that as well to a lesser extent. Yes but for everyone of them there’s a, De Bruyne ,Thiago, Son, Konate, Gundogan, Firminio , Aubameyang ect. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oooo, that's weird cause I was just reading that Brentford are front runners for him and Arsenal denied that they were in talks for him? This was in the times.

I think they are at most risk of dropping out of the 'big 6' so to speak. Losing out on CL is a massive blow, and I can see Newcastle overtaking them in a couple seasons.

They could conceivably attract and sign either Champions League or Championship talent. So they suddenly can be a name thrown in for almost anybody - particularly as they have needs at CB, Fullback, midfield and up front Throw in a London location and the media attention that comes with, they'll be tacked on to every link. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulberto21 Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 Arsenal have a lot of friends within the media. Hence the links. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can add Bailey to that as well to a lesser extent. There are disappointments from every league, even the Premier League. As for Sancho, let's not blame the Bundesliga. That's on Man United for buying players because people know the names and then not having any plan what to do with them. He's hardly the only young player they've bought who gets stuck in the mud once there. The entire team is full of them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 (edited) In his pre match presser SG seemed to suggest we were " doing well " on the potential transfer front ( When asked about progress ) so let's see! Also asked " Will fans be excited? " He replied " I hope so " ( " John Arne Riise is an outstanding fullback! " ) Edited May 18, 2022 by JAMAICAN-VILLAN 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CVByrne Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 I really hope we can convince Milner to join us instead of him extending his stay at Liverpool.

However now, I'm not sure I would, not because of him, or his age, just because it's low hanging fruit from all angles for the usual suspects to have a field day on. Age Club Wage Connection All wrong under the circumstances. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's the guy you bring off the bench on 70 mins to make sure you win the game. To see it over the line. 5 subs remember 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVByrne Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 People will complain about oh look at these players, too old etc.. Look at the young players we've signed from abroad for big fee's have Sanson, Bert, Bailey etc.. do we need more of them is it? If we have senior pro's like Suarez, Milner, Young who are vocal and have a drive and a level of standards that drag the squad up to. While also contributing on the pitch. We need that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
