Spy360:

Yeah!

I also wasn't too comfortable having too many Brazilians in the team after we sealed Jesus even though I rated Raphinha highly. At least we don't have to worry about that anymore. We can invest that money on Gnabry or Osimhen. Also we need to finalise Martinez and Tielemans fast if we are sure we need them.

We have too many disgruntled players like Bellerin, Torriera and AMN who would not give us their bests. Take these away and our squad becomes too thin to achieve meaningful things next season.

We need to make those signings and quickly do away with those dissatisfied players.

I have given up on Osihmen long time now... I don't think we are getting another CF.

While I don't mind Gnabry at all, I believe he will be a great addition to us... But I still don't think getting him will be easy, the guy wants to play the in the CL, and his preference has always been Madrid. I have not read anything suggesting the guy wants Arsenal comeback. On top of that, his wages will not be small o.

Le's get the willing Martinez and Tielemans , sell the unwanted ones / excess to requirements players, then focus on training/preparation for next season.

Not getting a reliable RW will mean overlabouring Saka again next season. Games will be thick and close due to the World Cup and so relying only on Saka will be detrimental. We need a RW or another CF so that Jesus can be Saka's backup when he is not playing CF.

70m for Raphina?

Na Pepe I blame sha

I get your point, I am not totally against getting another Winger, but Gnabry will not be easy...reason I suggested we give Marquinhos a chance or some other matured quality wingers from our Academy. Or Edu can still surprise us with another not well known but good talent.

Other wingers linked to us include Asensio (I dont know why I dont fancy him) and Moussa Diaby (he will be too expensive for my liking )

I like Bowen though, but I don't think we are looking at his direction or think West ham will sell.

Don't also forget we are yet to offload Pepe o

Ok. Apologies

It's all good chief.

Make dem just sell Pepe jarey. I no know why dem dey waste time, even if na loan make him just go

Raphina coming to the Emirates was a tall order afterall. I mean we already have Saka and Martinelli on both wings as regular starter ; having somoene like Raphina coming on to displace either of them despite the time and resources we've put in to develop those two is is a big L.

I think Edu and the rest of the management should just give us a midfielder( If Tielsman comes, good for us), sort out the LB position by deciding whether Tavarez is ready or someone else needs to take his position, let us know if players like Saliba are ready to play CB, then get us another CF if Balogun won't be playing for us this season and we close shop.

Once again, ogún kill pepe and those who orchestrated his deal. Make we dump the guy on any club that comes asking and make we move on.

Spy360:

Good piece. That it's coming from one of us here makes it even more delicious.

I think the kind of club set up they go on loan for matters a lot. I prefer teams like Brighton, Leeds or top Championship teams etc rather than EFL teams that are struggling like in the case of Azeez.

Sometimes, the French Ligue Un should be the preferred loan destination. Those clubs are excellent in grooming young talents with all round techniques.

A lot things go into consideration before a player is loaned out. 2 of the more important considerations are playing time and preferred position. While the EPL will be great, it is sometimes too difficult to secure loan opportunities with those 2 considerations for young players who are barely 20. EPL coaches manage their respective teams under a lot of pressure to deliver and you have to remember that these EPL teams also have their own academy players who are itching to come through their systems. So while Brighton and Leeds are great, it would be difficult, except we are planning to sell them to those teams.

The French league is a difficult transition for young English players because of the language barrier. Loan spells are usually half season or season long (9 months), young players need a league where they will settle quickly and adapt to the changes within their environment. Players on loan do not have the luxury of time to start learning French or culture while trying to learn/ develop or get playing time. Players need a system that enables them to transition immediately they arrive and that is why you don't see a lot of young English players go the French league because the turn around time is so short. The Eredivisie/ Bundesliga are better options because most people speak English there.

We should bid for kulusveki his release clause is 40 or this Belgian guy lang

iamoyindamola:

You see these our youngsters situation is very critical which require thinking
Arteta doesn't have the balls to integrate them into the first team like other managers like klopp, guardiola, wengay etc
I will start with balo i am afraid he will be like nketiah that was in and out, a full season loan will help him decide

Azeez; how can you have this boy and still be parading xhaka ffs atleast integrate him to the team instead of that awilo lonkonga
Honestly i am scared for arteta man management wise, full season loan too with a clause he must feature atleast 20 matches

Patino: This one need loan he ain't ready yet or he should continue u23

Omari: i haven't watch him much, he is giving me willock vibe jare

Marcel flores and Brook should continue with u23 because if we loan all who will remain
Azeez should stay in the first team he's the most mature among the youngsters he can be playing 5 minutes since they have approved 5 subs in EPL

Every season is critical to the development of talented prospects. Last season, our failure to properly integrate some of our better academy players into the first team by giving them useful minutes means there is a log jam in the talent curve. Many players have arrived the curve at the same time or have caught up with their seniors because their seniors did not develop last season, which means we have many players (especially midfielders) who are itching for first team competition, not necessarily with Arsenal.

I'd be shocked if Brook especially does not go on loan because that kid is ready to go but I don't think he will get some first team action with Arsenal this coming season. Historically, Arteta struggles with managing a large squad and he is not exactly enthused about using our academy players. Flores is already playing for the Mexican National Team, he would want to make the WC squad later this year, so I can see him itch for a loan spell.

I don't think we are signing another CF and that is why I will like to see Balogun stay back and get good minutes during domestic cup competitions and substitute appearances during early group stages of the Europa League or league games. Remember, as it stands, we only have Jesus and Nketiah as our recognized CFs, Arteta will not use Martinelli in that position.

mostob:
Nice analysis bro. I find it strange that Arteta is sidelining these youngsters. The same academy that gave us ESR and Saka. How old is Awilo and how old is Azeez. I'm particularly sad about Azeez's limited game time. He has the skill as well as the build. As for Norton-cuffy, he might be the next regular among the youngsters next season.

Signing Awilo/ Marquinhos for the "future" is going to stagnate some of our academy players who have similar skillsets and are at the same age as both. If we fail to integrate some of our promising academy players this coming season, or send them on loan then we would have a serious problem next season because at this point, many of them have arrived the curve at the same time. Depending on what Arteta decides, I hope it is a quick resolution on the future of Azeez this coming season. If he not going to be with the first team, then we must send him out early enough for a season long loan with a team where he would get minutes.

I still feel xhaka is a key factor why our youngsters who are midfielder hardly see game time

You are an expert on this area. I totally agree with you on those two points.

Would you suggest moving to lower EFL like L2? Though I feel that, with the way we rate these players, they should be able to hold their own in lower PL, Championship clubs or at least top L1 clubs.

Spurs will have Kulu on loan with an obligation to but him upper season.

I think 9ne of yhe reasons why there is no outgoing transfer yet is because Arteta wants to get all his targets first and he will look among the potential departees for alternative in case some deals fall through.
