The fourth Nigerian player to play for Everton. Let’s see if anyone can name the remaining three

I think it's
Amokachi
Aiyegbeni
Anichebe
Yobo
Lookman
Then Iwobi

Looking good

A back three of Luiz, Sokratis and Monreal/Mustafi/Holding; Tierney and Bellerin as speedy attacking wingbacks, attacking trio of Lacazette, Aubameyang and Pepe, a hopefully rejuvenated Ozil providing them with through balls behind the defence, and Torreira fighting in the middle, ok I think it can be a formidable starting 11.

Meanwhile, £8 million for David Luiz might seem cheap for Arsenal in today's market, but imagine how much more they'll have to spend on unblocking the shower drains with him and Guendouzi now in the same team...

peeps4u:
You forgot Holding and he is ahead of Chambers and even Mustafi on pecking orders.
Saliba being sent back on loan was part of the deal.
Arsenal have equally gotten a midfielder from Real Madrid on loan who isn't bad and will play a meaningful part in the campaigns. This isn't mentioning Iwobi who can also be fielded in that position in case of emergency.

I quite believe we need a CB but your analysis are somehow misinformed. Arsenal has been impressive in the transfer this season and it isn't as bad as you put it.

Is holding currently FIT?? Is he not injured?? Didn't you see me write FIT up there??

For Saliba, comprehend what I'm saying PLS. Arsenal need a defender to bolster their team NOW first not the future. And they said they had limited cash. So spending the limited cash on a defender that can't help them NOW pls how wise does that sound to you??

And then for the midfield you honestly believe a midfield that has Xhaka Elneny Torreira and even Ceballos will stand up to the likes of Liverpool and Man city

I rest my case

RolexOfGeneva:
So Holding is not a senior CB?

Is holding currently FIT?? Is he not injured?? Didn't you see me write FIT up there?? Gosh!!!

I believe Koscielny served arsenal faithfully for 9 years so the manner in which he left was baffling. He deserved to leave on a legend status so I don't know why this . Wrighty should just let it go. Koscielny has gotten the move he wanted, whatever he choses to do there shouldn't be anyone's concern now, everyone should just move on.

Meanwhile that Whitehall guy has reached savage level 90

generalwo:
...... For your mind now.... U get sense abi..... Why did we sign Dani ceballos from real Madrid if not to replace Ramsey?? And who told u it was arsenal's choice to loan Saliba back to his club.... Did u bother to ask if that was the only condition the st Etienne agreed to sell him to arsenal Who hear u talk about government go think day u better pass the government

If you'll pause to think right, just pause:

Arsenal are in desperate need of a defender for THIS season
Arsenal have limited cash available
Arsenal spends a good chunk of that cash on a defender they can't use now

You see the clueless part now?

Good one. Though he's injured. Good one still. Atall atall

Arsenal have only 3 fit senior CBs going into the season:

Sokratis
Mustafi
Chambers

Arsenal spent money to buy Saliba, who plays in defence, an area that Arsenal are desperately in need of strengthening, but instead sent him back out on loan for the entire season [heavy sigh]

Arsenal let Ramsey leave then signed no suitable replacement in midfield, another area where they really need addition, instead depending on:

Torreira
Guendouzi [forgot him before]
Xhaka [volatile]
Elneny [ineffective]
Ceballos [unproven]
for the season where they're playing 4 competitions.

If we swapped the arsenal board of directors with the Nigerian govt, sincerely no one will notice any difference cos they're both:

Clueless [bereft of ideas]
Have zero planning
Are zero proactive

This was Solskjaer's number 1 target this window, now he has gotten his man. Man U fans, who else do you need to solidify your squad for this season?

Ok let me get this...few days ago Man U ended their pursuit of Dybala because of his wage demands, now same Dybala is added in a swap deal with two 33 year olds? Transfer market is a puzzle sha

If this is true, then I'll say Man U continue o. If you continue like this you'll still sell him for £200,000 plus Mohammed Elneny

Arsenal should go for a loan deal for one or both of these players. Atleast to add depth to their midfield. Remove Lucas Torreira and you can see major problems in arsenal's midfield area this season. They've even gone and sold Ramsey and no replacement.

Lukaku should lose some weight. It's good to be big but he can be a bit leaner and still strong, like Drogba. With the added advantage of being able to move more freely. When you've started panting after 10 minutes as a professional, then it's time to cut back

To compound the defensive woes for Man U, Eric Bailly is out for 4 months

andrew444:
Which psg?

No be liverpool buy defender 75 million ni?

It was what PSG started that caused a snowball effect that resulted in Southampton placing 75m price tag on their defender

Cherrybae:
Maguire is a flop. I wonder what Jose Mourinho is smoking to spend such huge amount on a bech warmer.

Jose Mourinho is out to bury United cos this move.

Nonsense

Mourinho? Wow

It's weird that I've never watched any of Osimhen's matches.
Pls for those who have seen him play, how good is he?

These Asians have some of the most fanatic football fans. When they hosted the world cup in 2002, I read of some scary lengths some of their fans went just to watch world cup matches.
Then again, if there was an agreement in place that Juventus and Ronaldo failed to honor, then the fans are entitled to a compensation.
