The eye test for me shows he’s the perfect forward for us. His stats are really up there, annoyingly Salzburg have three who are very similar in Okafor, Junior Adamu (my shout) and the 18 year old Karim Konate. All would be good additions, maybe not for right now though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring him back. Anyway back on topic, i would like us to sign a winger this window at least. Striker can wait till the summer i think.

useless Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Kike Marin is very reliable and particularly so with regards to Arsenal transfers, which is why he has the inside dope on Emery's dealings. But even so hard to believe we would bid that much. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

messi11 Posted January 14, 2023 Author Share Posted January 14, 2023 The market is going bonkers right now. We have to be careful not to overpay. £30 million players at best are going for crazy money. Mykhaylo Mudryk on the last deadline day was close to Brentford for £30 Million. Now going to Chelsea for 100Millon Euros. Gakpo was going to Southampton also for £21 Mil and now has gone to Liverpool for 50+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t understand how he can be commanding that kind of fee off 6 performances in CL. I’ve watched the highlights and not seeing him doing anything dramatically special in those games. He looks quick and a handful but 100m is top level money. Yes he’s got good stats playing in Ukrainian league but surely that can’t have any bearing on fee like this. I am massively confused. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
