>>121459623Good player but we need to prioritise a top CM/CDM. We already have enough depth in the attacking midfield/wings to rotate sufficiently that Saka doesn't burn out.
>>121459680agreed dunno why we are so keen on him, he's decent but not worth all this hassle
Gabriel Jesus prefers a move to Arsenal over Spurs.[@PBSportsWriter]
tbf I doubted him but Arteta's Onlyfans content is decent
.@charles_watts: “I think it’s interesting that Tottenham have started briefing today that they’re no longer in the running for him (G.Jesus). Just my hunch as a journalist makes you tend to think they’ve obviously been told he’s not signing for them.”

Leeds' best players are Kalvin Phillips (by far) and that orange cunt Stuart Dallas. Raphinha doesn't even rate.
Do you reckon Balogun will get another loan?
>>121461501>Kalvin Phillips Not even in England's top 3 DMs
>>121459680>need to prioritise a top CM/CDMExcept they're not bothering to target the correct profile of player in that position and bringing in any of their current targets is going to be a complete waste of money>We already have enough depth in the attacking midfield/wings to rotate sufficiently that Saka doesn't burn out.So untrue, Saka held together because he's young and lucky. Ended so many games injured. Pepe was mostly crap in his cameos last season and Martinelli only performs in streaks. The squad is crying out for more wide players.
>>121459680>we need to prioritise a top CM/CDMHonestly by the sounds of it, it's not happening. Currently haggling over 5 million for Tielemans while targeting no one else. Meaning we are OK with Xhaka, or we will play Fabio or Saka there.
>>121457633
>>121461514Probably needs to
>>121461572Vieira and Odegaard can play RW. I don't really understand why Arteta didn't rotate Odegaard there, rest Saka and then play ESR at 10 with Martinelli at LW.With Vieira in the team now there's no excuse for Saka not to be rested when needed.
>>121462427Probably because Saka was so important to the team. When Saka had an off-day the attack was non-existent. When he played decently or well the attack worked the same. Martinelli is not consistent enough to be a starter for a top team, just like Nketiah but he also lacks quality overall. These two positions are still the biggest weakness in the club. Midfield is fine. Xhaka and Partey started only 14 games together last season (in the league). If they could be less injured (which they should) we will be fine
Beginning to suspect Gabriel Jesus by tomorrow desu
>>121458235I actually rate him and think he's far better than Mongdouzi

Gabriel Jesus to Arsenal is in the very final stages.

anyone else not super happy about gabby jesus? double digit league goals only twice, avg 9 goals w/ city a season
>>121465406in fairness to him he was played as a winger for a lot of his apps
>>121465519but does that translate to success as a striker?
>>121465569If you trust the process it does
>>121465739I do not
>>121465406In the games he played as a centre-forward for City last season, he averaged a goal every 147 minutes (all competitions). That's 0.61 goals every 90 mins. Here's the goals per 90 for the top scorers in the league last season for comparison:>Salah 0.75 (not a centre-forward)>Son 0.68 (not a centre-forward)>Ronaldo 0.66>Kane 0.47>Mane 0.51 >De Bruyne 0.61 >Vardy 0.75>Jota 0.56 >Zaha 0.46 >Sterling 0.55Here's the goals per 90 of the strikers Arsenal fielded in the league last season for comparison too:>Nketiah 0.56>Aubameyang 0.34>Lacazette 0.2I guess the analytics guys are gambling on him being able to bring that kind of goalscoring form to us if we start him week-in, week-out as a centre-forward. They'll have crunched the numbers and come to the conclusion he could get around 20 league goals for us if we give him 3000 minutes. That would be a big upgrade on the 13 goals we got off Auba, Laca and Nketiah combined. I don't know if it'll work out or not - my knowledge of non-Arsenal players is always very superficial - but that seems to be the thinking.
>>121466477>>Lacazette 0.2
>>121464950>>121465012>>121465373>>121464913Wait guys, it's still fucking Gabriel Jesus.
>>121466477there's also the element that he has scored a lot less than his xG would suggest. the default assumption for stats guys is actually he will score more in line with his xG in the future (rather than him being a poor finisher). the last 5 seasons he had 58xg compared to 51 goals. he has averaged 0.6npxg per 90 over that time (not filtering for position).
Stats fags are the nonces of sport
>>121466673Take out his penalties and it's 0.1 goals per 90. He had an unbelievably bad season.
Always fun to see where your academy products end up
>>121466797Statnonces
>>121467145Love it
Any arsenal fan excited about Jesus is the most deluded fool one can imagine. Arsenal's glaring problem (besides the manager) last season was goals. Lacazette was never the goal scorer he was in France, putting up abysmal numbers here. Now compare that to Gabriel Jesus, who had service from KDB, Bernardo Silva, Sterling, Mahrez etc. A striker who didn't score a goal at the World Cup for Brazil, when shitters like Fred did. Its clear he doesn't want to be a striker , he's more content on the wings. He doesn't have the hunger or the greediness necessary to score 20-30 goals, let alone lead an Arsenal team from the front. Think about this, this Arsenal team will be the worse team Gabriel Jesus has played in since leaving Brazil. He is constantly surrounded by world class players. Will moving to a smaller pond allow him to shine? We'll see... But he had the chance to supplant himself as Man City's number 9 after Aguero left and he never took it. As soon as Haaland rumours started to spread he fucked off. Weak Mentality. Same as Odegaard at Real Madrid. These players will never bring the club back to even being a consistent top 4 club, let its past glories. Ask yourself, what attributes does Gabriel Jesus have over Nketiah? They are the exact same build, average short, quick, high pressing forward. Gabriel Jesus can dribble better, whoopty-doo. That's not the 25 goals extra you need to get top 4 . If I'm being honest, I back Eddie to score more than Jesus (atleast per game) just because he is more greedy for goals.This also demonstrates Arteta's tactical ineptitude and Edu's resourcelessness . How can bringing on Nketiah for Jesus change the game or even both of them at once. And another shitty Brazilian from a premier league club...wowArsenal are a mess

I unironically close my eyes and keep scrolling when I see Gabriel Jesus linked with Arsenal.

>>121468834thanks that's kind of you.I believe I will become less bitter and resentful as a person if we win.I think going to the stadium since the year of '99 to watch a shit team struggle for two hours is bad for you.

>>121469229Oh sorry I “support” Pirates. I’ve had two or three of their jerseys and would never get a chiefs one. But the support goes so far as checking the occasional table and the highlights of the Soweto derby. You do get great service at the petrol station if you’re wearing a pirates top desu. Since moving to Cape Town I watched one preseason game when Porto and CP (Pardew as the manager) played against Ajax. But since Ajax changed to spurs I guess I’ll have to be a city supporter Kek. Shame there was a rugby tour with like two teams who support CP and they were singing and chanting and then later in the tour the one kid broke his neck or something. I sommer feel bad now. If I’m not doing anything I’ll look for your game on YouTube otherwise I’ll check the scores on my phone.

>>121470051grim
This is honestly more interesting than the same rehashed piece of transfer news I keep seeing.
Used to feel pretty good about the prospect of signing Gabriel Jesus but now I'm starting to have doubts.Who could we even realistically sign as an alternative?I genuinely would take a punt on Tammy Abraham. I just don't trust any other player from a different league to come in and score at least 15 goals.
Sharteta made the mistake of moving star boy in an attacking position. He should have been kept at lb/lwb and played as tierney's backup since the scott faggot is so injury prone.>inb4 but his goal contributionAll of our projects youth players are headless chicken who can't score for shit and they really should be back up to seasoned players but dicteta won't have that.
For long-term free agent Yaya Sanogo, his career wasn't meant to end up the way it has. Next year marks a decade since a period that promised so much.In 2013, the French striker was nominated for the European Golden Boy award, the same year that saw him win the Under-20 World Cup with France and secure a dream move to Arsenal.Now 29 and the peak of his football years moving swiftly behind him, Sanogo has been without a club for the past 12 months, ever since his six-month stint at Championship club Huddersfield Town came to an end.Three teams in Scotland have registered interest in him this summer, according to the Frenchman, along with various clubs in Switzerland and France."I hope to find a club quickly, that would make me happy," he says. "I need to find the joy of the pitch again, the taste of it."
Verona apparently want Mari, how much you guys think they should let him go for?

why would anyone want Gabriel? How is he an improvement on Lacasette?
fuck gabrieljust bring over this raphinha lad, barca won't sign him anyways
>>121478639>>121478673Gabriel is the only one on the table as far as I'm aware. Are >we linked with literally any other striker in any meaningful way other than random bullshit journalists making shit up?
>>121477518>>121466477The reason he gets that many goals is cause he has DE BRUYNE feeding him easy balls. And if you follow his game closely, he's not that clinical, perfect Arsenal DNA, don't want him, he's a manlet and weak, honestly he's just a slightly better Nketiah
I'd honestly take back a 35 year old broken Giroud in a heartbeat over any Man City rejects
>>121478706Oh yeah, he's inarguably shit. He's the sort of player that will drive you up the wall because of his terrible fucking decision making and shooting. I'm not even a City fan and even then I was getting pissed off whenever I watched him play. I just hope Vieira turns out to be as good as he's advertised.
Arteta OUUUUUUUUT
why come they ain't making no transfers?
people here seriously arguing gabriel jesus is no better than nketiah or lacazette lol
>>121479808Lacazette before Arteta was better than any version of Gabriel Jesus.
>arsenal sign some African>all the nogs gather outside the emirates to dancehow any self respecting white lad can support this club is beyond me
>lacazette 54 goals in 158 games>jesus 58 goals in 159 gamesand Jesus played with world class players.
priority should be>1. Jesus2. Martinez3. Tielemans4. Raphinha
I thought Raphinha's agent was just some random guy named Deco, didn't realise he was the real Deco.
>>121471914The most ideal scenario was offloading Nketiah in January with a buy back clause and starting fresh this season. Richarlison as the main number 9 would be incredible. Data Nonces will tell that he doesn't score enough or his attitude is poor but if you actually watch him play you can see he has the latent potential to score 30+ goals in a season, similar to how Van Persie was. Any top level manager could unlock him easily and will channel his aggression to make him into a deadly striker. He has great aerial ability, fantastic link up and can operate anywhere across the front line. I think that him and saka would form a brillant partnership as well. I would also bring in Dzeko as a back up target man striker and to add much needed experience and character to this bland team.Both of team together easily adds 30 goals to Arsenal, but Arsenal Fans turn their noses at Richarlison because of his "attitude problems", again showing how Arteta has poisoned your minds thinking every footballer needs to be quiet and just obey him and anyone with a voice is poison
>>121472800Saka LWB would have been perfect, especially in the modern game where the full backs are the main creative source
>>121480739I agree with the Richarlison part, he's a dirty cunt just like Vardy. Even if he doesn't score he'll at least get you some free kicks or some cards for the opposition.The Dzeko part though, I'd rather bring back Giroud.
>>121480739You are describing the Richarlison when he plays well. He can be kind of unstoppable when he has his day. Unfortunately he plays well 2 out of 10 games. He is more often totally invisible then he is unstoppable.
>>121457633Pre-season kicks off in like 2 weeks... it's too fucking long away I need footie NOW.
Exclusive: Thomas Tuchel promised up to six summer signings by new Chelsea owners with £200m to spend
Deco is in Barcelona and will be meeting with Barca. Barca will give him the definite answer as to whether they will move for him or not. His priority is still to sign for Barca irrespective of English interest which is known.
>>121481358lads are back training on monday
>>121461501Retard. Raphinha carried them this season.
>>121482067he did? seemed to go missing in a lot of important games.He is also a bonafide RW who cuts inside on his left foot. In other words, he plays Saka's best position.
>>121481292I would rather Giroud as well, but Dzeko is available for free and out scored Giroud last season
>>121481323Lad he plays for Everton. Only when the spotlight or the pressure is on that he performs. He craves a move for a big club just like Zaha. Difference is Richarlison is about to hit his prime. Carlo Ancelotti described him as one of the best strikers in europe and said he should be aiming for 30 goals a season minimum, saying if Drogba can get 29 he could get 30. And that's the difference the manager makes to these players. Which is why our recruitment is so bad and why Arteta seems to fall out with everyone. Its because he can't handle these sort of players with personalities and rather bring in weak minded shitters who will mindlessly obey and make him look great
>Richarlison >> Lacazette >> Nketiah >> Jesusthank fuck you guys aren't running the club
>>121482819Wait, who's saying that?

Literally anyone but that faggot Dominic Calvert-Lewin
SIGN SOMEONE
>>121482192> seemed to go missing in a lot of important games.Did you see the Leeds attack this year? They had pretty much nothing. Not hard for teams to nullify Raph when they had no one else to worry about. He scored a lot of important goals in big games also, you're talking nonsense. Out of the games where Leeds scored points, only 1 of his goals (to go 1-0 up v Watford) wasn't a direct game winner or game equalizing goal. His goals this season won them between 12-15 points. Ie. they would have been relegated without him.

>>121487074well, devine is definitely better than every arsenal kid, that's for sure.tottenham in general are a superior club to arsenal in every facet right now. better squad, better manager, better stadium, better league position, better summer transfers, just better everything.
>>121487059>>121486987ah its on his instagram:>Gabriel Jesus to Arsenal getting closer.>Final fee expected to be in region of £45m plus add-ons>Technical director Edu has held extensive talks with the player’s agent and 25-year-old has been assured a regular starting role at #AFC>Arsenal planning further additions with Ajax defender Lisandro Martinez and Leeds star Raphinha both targets.
>>121487074he's obsessed with little kids. i wonder why
>>121487059what did he do?
>>121486967And yet they'll still somehow end up ahead of us at the end of the season...
@David_Ornstein·7m Arsenal have reached an agreement with Manchester City to sign striker Gabriel Jesus for £45m. Still some bits to sort but #AFC on course to secure 25yo, who also had interest from Chelsea & Tottenham. Arteta’s top target @TheAthleticUK #MCFC #CFC #THFC
WHAT DO WE WANT? SIGNINGS! WHEN DO WE WANT THEM? NOWhttps://youtu.be/tTYs42UQNVQ
Vieira - 30mJesus - 45mMartinez - 30mTielemans - 25mRaphina - 65mAppreciate Kroenke's putting money in but is there an FFP thing to think about? Who's going out?Being very optimistic could get maybe 30m between Bellerin, Torreira and Xhaka (if Tielemans is coming in). 20m for Pepe, 5m maybe for AMN.That's still maybe 150m net spend two seasons in a row. And if Raphinha comes and Saka signs da ting then I'd guess the wage bill isn't getting trimmed so much.
>>121489380>is there an FFP thing to think about?FFP is dead mate City and PSG killed it

>>121489436>>121489550>>121489645I'm really just looking for some angle to see how this doesn't work. Right now it looks like Arsenal are out there spending a ton of money buying good players and it hasn't been like this since...the late 90's?Meanwhile the other top 6 teams seem to be doing worse to varying degrees. Guess it's early days in the window.
Did the Emirates Stadium refurbishment work start yet?
>>121489978of course
>>121489380FFP has nothing to do with stopping rich clubs from spending money. It's to stop smaller clubs from going bankrupt because a dodgy owner uses it to launder money.
Topspur fans are insanely buttblasted over the jesus deal holy shit
>>121490351source
>>121490376Replies under the orny tweet
Arsenal are expected to go back in with an improved bid for Raphinha after agreeing a deal in principle to sign Gabriel Jesus from Manchester City, as per @skysports_sheth.
>>121490434>Jesus and Raphina >not a CMEdu……..
>>121490452Tielemans is all bug confirmed as a target at this point
>>121490467>confirmed as a target And I won’t believe anyone is signed till the press release
>>121490467a target you've cooled on since signing vieira
well well well
>>121490854no its just nobody else is in for tielemans and the club is trying to take it to the wire to see if leicester get desperate and drop the price. ornstein etc have covered this.
>all this hype around jesus All he had to do was displace an injury prone old man Aguero and he couldn't do it. Even when Aguero was gone he still wasn't the first choice striker, there was a period where Pep played Foden as the striker over him.
>>121490932He is a really shitty player and I have on why the fuck Arsenal is going for him.
>>121490905nah, there is literally no news because your club literally cooled their interest. if you keep splashing big cash and big wages it's going to become impractical to sign a quality CM.
>>121490949Arteta the mong wants a like for like Lacazette replacement.
>>121490960whatever you want to believe
>>121490962this again...he's clearly miles better than lacazette was last season
£45m + addons for Gabriel Jesus at £235k p/wDamn... I mean, DAMN.
>>121491045>lacazette 4 goals 7 assists in 30 matches>jesus 8 goals 9 assists in 28 matchesMiles better you said?
>>121491045But he is worse than Lacazette was in his better days at Arsenal. He's also significantly worse than Aubameyang was. And guess what? Even those two guys weren't good enough to get you into the Champions League, let alone compete for the title.Let's face it, Arsenal are a joke, and that's not going to be changing any time soon.
>>121491045lol
>>121491076I'm tempted to argue the toss with you about non-penalty goals but I'm going to have to take the same approach as with the australian guy and say, if you want to believe that Jesus is a similar level to what Lacazette delivered last season then I can't stop you I guess.
>>121490408don't see much of anything desu
>Arsenal sign Jesus>he automatically turns shiteverytimeIf Jesus was so bad he wouldn't have started both legs of City's CL SF v RealLacazette was in the bottom 2 percentile for NonPenalty goals last season, Jesus at £45m is the best value CF on the market, meanwhile Newcaslte wanted to pay £35m for some literally who with 10 goals in france
>mum is coming back from the US to visit me>"Do you want anything Anon?" feels bad man, she already got me a new graphic card i don't need
I like Fabio's youtube videos more than Jesus desu
>>121479808How is he an improvement? Go ahead and tell me.>Getting fleeced for a slightly better Nketiah
>>121491669>Jesus at £45m is the best value CF on the market
>>121491744Cause Nketiah is the only attacking forward >we have. I'm not remotely convinced by Gabriel Jesus, but fuck this team needs more striking/center forward options. One player is painfully not enough.People have been saying that Isak is shit, and Martinez is unproven etc., but I'd gladly take them over Gabriel Jesus. However, they would all cost too much and then the board won't go in for other players the team needs.
>>121491873It's a mad statement, but other players will be too expensive.
>>121457633>obsessed Aussie still around
>>121494448Of course. He's clearly mentally unwell, and probably off his meds
>>121461501Strange post from Eire bro. Phillips is undeniably okay but Raphinha is undoubtedly based.
>gabriel jesusare you guys trying to achieve what everton could not?
I've got a feeling that mentally ill spurs fan isn't actually Australian
>>121494300I'm hoping no english club buys Raul De Tomas for cheap. If so, I hope he flops. He's 1 in 2 in spain but got exposed in Portugal.
>>121497111cope biblical names are dope
>>121491744compared to nketiah he's better at everything other than poaching. compared to lacazette he's better at everything, same with late period auba. It feels like people are suffering from short term memory loss of some kind - last season auba and laca contributed nothing (some games auba actually managed to cost us goals somehow). comparisons to peak auba are just stupid because >we are not replacing peak auba, we are replacing basically a training cone.
>>121498793Laca was connecting very well with the rest of the attack for a few months. When Auba left no one missed him because Lacazette played well (except he didn't score goals). Then he just stopped playing well (a few games before Nketiah became permanent starter). To say Laca contributed nothing is just straight up lies and cope.
>>121486507>clip is pace babby shitok
>>121499164Okay, Laca had decent link up play for a few months. I suppose that's not absolutely nothing. Hey, Auba played a decent flick on against Spurs too so I suppose he is as good as Jesus after all.
>>121499169its just weak trolling, best to ignore it.
OK, Jesus is shit.So who's the better [spoiler]realistic[/spoiler] option?
I see the nonce has taken up an aussie ip.
been doing some scouting and i've found just the man to be Arsenals new striker: Kylian Mbappe
>>121497626I've got a feeling he's not even a Spurs fan
>£45m for thisEdu OUT
>>121499859A consistent ability to score at the top level and he's only 25? Blimey, another Edu and Arteta masterclass!
>>121499254Nketiah is the only realistic one.
>leave Fabio Vieira's chopstick legs to us
>>121499254For 45 million genuinely no one. And yes, I know he's isn't gonna score shit for goals.
how deprived of attention is this OP
>>121499978They got relegated years ago. With Burnley out the picture too there aren't really any chud teams left in the PL.

>>121500130The black Weghorst
>>121499194I agree that Auba did mostly nothing this season but I don't agree that the same can be said about Lacazette. He did nothing in his last three or four games for us but not the whole season.Is the Auba flick on the one when he totally misshits the ball and it ends up perfectly for another Arsenal player?
>>121499859Mad how they got Haaland for £50m.
Jesus couldn't help himself to score goals when he had the likes of KDB, Bernardo Silva, Gundogan etc supplying him. How is he meant to help Arsenal?
>>121499859Only because shitty assisting hindered him all this time. With Øde feeding him, he'll easily double the numbers.And there still is Vieira with even greater potential. The rest of the EPL should be afraid, very afraid (if the deal comes thru).
Jesus has the ability of Lacazette and the purple patch of Nketiah.
>>121500371Stop it, the "Australian" is going to have an aneurysm.
>>121500371>silva>de bruyne >shitty assisting
grim
Yeah I'm sure the rest of the league is shaking in fear of the potential of a skinny manlet who has never played a game for his NT. Lmao.
>LmaoHoly cope!
>>121461501JWP is better
>>121477518all 34 games in a world cup season with fa cup and eu games but he will just bang in 20 when his not done it before
I hope they sign all these guys, Raphinha Jesus Lisandro Martinez, fuck it even that absolute shitter Tielemans. Then there are no excuses any more. Deliver top 4 or fucking go.
David Ornstein@David_Ornstein·3m Arsenal to intensify efforts next week to sign Raphinha from Leeds. More talks planned with 25yo’s camp & increased offer expected. Feeling among other suitors is #AFC now leading & he’s said to be open to joining them. W/ @PhilHay_ @TheAthleticUK #LUFC
>tfw your club is being swindled by brazilian mafia in real time and you're celebrating it
literally and unironically where are we getting all this cash from after missing top 4
>>121500264Come on Sven Laca wasn’t even starting the last 10 games. He was dreadful.
>>121501315Like I said it's still Jesus.
Why are we buying so many brazilians?
>>121501853Edu playing some 4D chess knowing that when Brazil win the HEXA this winter, even our shitzilians prices will skyrocket.
We should've secured Saka's new contract before giving big wages to all these monkeys.
>positives signings, apparently - everything is bette than the dross, especially up front than >we have now also if Arteta doesn’t get top 4 now after so many new faces arrive he has to go, no way around it>negatives all of the signings have flops written all over them
>>121501906Another 4D move, playing him every game to burn him out and break him before fucks off to a team like Liverpool.
>>121501937PositivesBrazilians will down tools and force Arteta outNegativesTeam is full of Brazilians.
>>121461501This, Rapinha is Bielsa baby
>>121500287He will play at Winger and supply it to Nketiah
>>121501937I don't think Raphinha would flop, just watch some of Leeds games, he basically carried their asses. Dribbled through everyone just for their teammates to fuck it up.>>121501980This to be honest. We're heading past the critical monkey % limit.
Jesus looks pretty good when you filter for position. If he can give us a goal every two games he'll be a massive upgrade on what we've had up front for the last two years.
I just remembered that Jesus got 4 of his goals and 1 assist in a single game that last season. He's like Pepe.
>>121502119At least EPL farmers are better than most Europa League ones.
>scores more goals as CF when pep plays him there against Norwich and Fulham>LOOK AT THE HECKIN STATERINOS
>>121502152I was more referencing the farming he did in the last 2 games where he got 4 goals. Had a total of 10 in 29 appearances that season. 4 in the last 2 games. 5 in the last 4 games.
>>121502273>>121502119And this can mean that Arsenal gets him exactly when he entered his prime. Also Pep used him as a starting striker in the last games of the season. Good enough for Pep, good enough for Arsenal.
>>121502329It was Pepe that got 4 goals in the last two matches, not Jesus. Jesus scored those 4 in one, scored another in his next match, and then did got nothing for the next 3 games where he played 240 odd minutes. He had 7 shots in those minutes and had one on target. Mind you, this is all statfaggotry. I haven't watched those matches so I have no clue whether or not he was useful in other ways in those matches.
Pat on the back from Arteta to Raphinha. Interesting.

Gabriel Jesus was back-up striker for a team that had no strikers
>>121503164Now he's first choice for a team with no strikers. Good for him.
Americans should be barred from posting in these threads
>>121494300>but other players will be too expensive.You mean except the ones who aren't?How much did Aubameyang cost you? A small amount more than Jesus obviously, except Aubameyang was more than twice the player Jesus is.How much did Liverpool pay for Salah and Mane?Literally all you have to do is be smart. 50m for Gabriel Jesus simply isn't smart.
How much goals does hesus need to score to be considered a good signing? I'd say 20 in the EPL
>>121503641Was just thinking about posting more often and now I have a reason.
>>121503670Minimum 17 for me considering he's going to cost a little less than 50m.
>>121501799I know. He had decent form and connected well with the rest of the attack around December-February and then he stopped doing that and got benched by Nketiah for the rest of the season. I was simply arguing with the previous anon who said Laca didn't contribute at all the whole season.
>>121503684to be clear Australians should also be banned
>>121503641you're just a discount american, shut the fuck up.
when will statsfags realize footy isn't excel simulator?
>>121503775When they get over puberty.
>>121502377He wasn't very useful. He never got any good passing going on with other City players and when he did play as a target man his passing was off (too loose or behind the running player so he had to stop and lose momentum). He also tried to shoot for goal in stupid angles instead of making the obvious pass to another player with a better chance. This is a problem at Arsenal as well (Nketiah do it all the time).He did keep possession pretty well. He didn't lose the ball except when he tried to shoot or pass it to a teammate. If his decision making becomes better he would be a decent striker.
>>121502067Noooooo you're not allowed to give proper analysis in /arse/. You have to shit on everything we do and be permanently pessimistic.
>"Before I went to Napoli there was [a chance to sign for Arsenal]. We had already spoken but they didn't buy me, they buy Ozil for 80 million or something like that," Gonzalo Higuaín told TyC Sports.couldve won the league with an actual striker
>>121503905Piguain wouldn't have moved the needle, the one that pisses me off is missing out on Benzema when he was sort of unsettled at Madrid
>>121503905Back then it was a proper midfielder we needed. Someone strong, athletic and quick.
>>121503998>Back then
>>121503775to be honest a lot of the stats people share here like this dude>>121502067is literally just goals and assists divided by minutes on the pitch, hardly controversial stuff, and just articulated so people take into account other non-controversial things like "half this players goals come from the penalty spot" and "this player is used as a sub a lot". its not excel spreadsheet stuff its just getting people to use their brains.
>>121503998that team lacked pace up front more than anything. problem was ozil came in and had nobody to pass to, gnabry was too raw, walcott did his ACL. remember sanogo lol?
>>12150367087 throughout the season MINIMUM.And if we're considering only PL then 85. Again, at minimum. Anything less than that, with Ø and Vieira around, it's a fucking FLOP.

why don't you go ask in the sp*ds thread?
>>121501782This. Brazilians used to be good.
Glad the Jesus deal is all but done, but I can't help but wish we had made progress on Zinchenko in the same timeframe.
>>121506979Holy based, now I like them even more.
>>121506979incredibly based
Tomi ------ White ---- Gabriel/Saliba ---- Tierney-------------------Partey---------------------------------------Xhaka-------------Ode-----Saka-------------G. Jesus--------Martinelli Not really much of an improved team even with Fabio adding depth. Clearly we need a more elite-level number 8 to replace Xhaka and make that midfield look frightening. Also lmao Jesus' interview where he's admitting he rather play wide is circling out.But one thing I will say that /arse/ hasn't talked about is Jesus' workrate and pressing which is ridiculously good. He will probably gangrape press a lot of players and create a ton of chances from presses
Okay so the G. Jesus interview where Jesus says that he prefers to play out wide that has been circling for a while was 4 years ago when Jesus was 21 years old. As a striker he’s played 78 games for city and scored 46 goals, almost one goal every two games.
>>121507078Raph > ShartiOde replaces XhakshitFabio replace odourfraud
>>121507078Why are defenders strikers and strikers defenders?
>>121507127>Raph > ShartiRaphinha doesn't even play LW what the fuck lolWhy the fuck would you play Odegaard as an 8 who covers for leftback like Xhaka does in Farteta's systemFabio would rotate with OdeWhat is wrong with you. Sad thing is I know people would genuinely think Ode playing Xhaka's role is a good idea with some tortured argument involving Ode's great work rate.
>>121507164Then Saka will play there. I'd play odour as an 8 because we need him and another creative player in midfield.
>>121507195Bit retarded bro.
>>121500371kek
>>121507202How>an 8 who covers for leftbackthis tactic is dead
>>121507327>>121507327Literally its what Farteta does with Xhaka whenever Tierney/the LB makes runs deep into opposing thir
>>121507339Having to rely on fullbacks for creativity is a thing of the past. Tierney is not needed in attack any more and desu should be sold because he's shit.
>>121459680>but we need to prioritise a top CM/CDMCould I interest you in a raise and contract extension for Xhaka?
>>121507127>Raph > Shartididn't realize you arsenal fans were this stupid
>>121507339The club looking at Martinez makes sense if they're looking for a defensive fullback on the left, this would make space to create more centrally.The 8 on the left feels more like a bandaid than an intended tactic but maybe not.
LlorisSpence - Romero - Dier - Davies - PerisicBentancur - BissoumaKulusevski - Kane - SonTottenham's current team is just better than Arsenal's, sorry. Still have an LCB and Wing/Striker to come in too.
Why is Bruce Wogopolouszhangovic still here?
Chris Wheatley@ChrisWheatley_·3mWilliam Saliba contract talks going positively with Frenchman set to return for pre-season training shortly.The French defender will be at Arsenal for the 2022-23 season, as confirmed by manager Mikel Arteta and people close to the player. #AFC
>>121508331Good to hear. Hopefully he impresses in pre-season and starts over ben shite.
>>121507409>>121507671>The 8 on the left feels more like a bandaid than an intended tactic but maybe not.Wtf. It's obviously something Arteta uses for Tierney create space for Martinelli. Tierney overlaps and drags a defender out, giving Martinelli more space to run
>>121508619You're right but it's simply not that effective, most of the time this strategy leads into a cross to no one. It was good when Auba was still firing but Martinelli can't carry games the same wayConsidering how efective Tomiyasu was Arteta might look to do the same for the left
with Vieira in, who starts in midfield? Ødegaard, Vieira and Partey?
>>121509764Maybe
>>121509764If you have watched Arsenal (or Switzerland) over the past few years you know Xhaka is one of the first players the manager puts in his starting eleven. I don't expect that to change this coming season.

In addition, he was named in the Ligue 1 Team of the Season and won the Prix Marc-Vivien Foe, which is awarded to the best African player in France.>Although he is considered to be a box-to-box player, it is his attacking qualities that are often to the fore. He dribbles well, possesses an excellent long-range shot and is also a significant threat from set pieces. Fofana did not rate well in terms of his passing last season, but given the direct nature of Lens’ attacking play, this was not such a big issue for them.>Indeed, it was the cut-and-thrust nature of his play from the midfield that made him such an exciting player to watch. He would often be found around the opponents’ penalty area, supporting his forward players, and it was in these situations that he excelled.>Moreover, he played virtually every minute of the season for Lens, speaking volumes about his durability.>The difference between Fofana and a player like Aurelien Tchouameni, who recently left Monaco to move to Real Madrid for €100m, is that he is not as strong defensively. Fofana does not rate well in terms of his ball recovery or pressing.>Indeed, Arsenal could not sign him as an alternative to Youri Tielemans, for example. He does not control the play but tends to barrel through it, bringing a tempo of his own to a match.>He has to be given a very specific job in the midfield, but given the freedom to attack, he could be a very potent player for a club like Arsenal or Newcastle.
>>121526679genuinely forgot he's still in the club
>>121527116Sounds like the text describes Paul Pogba, Naby Keita or Tanguy Ndombele. None of which has had a good career in the premier league.
friendly reminder that Kola was in the Blundesliga’s team of the season before Arsenal signed him.
>>121527391Ligue 1 is currently a closer match to the Premier League in terms of what is required from a player physically than any other league in the world
>>121527391Yeah and Mustafi won the WC.
Jesus is gonna straight up flop bros it’s so obvious
>>121524936Hasn’t happened since bellerin left. Him and tierney WERE a couple when they were both here but they split and that’s part of the reason bellerin refuses to come back
>>121527741I think he's going to get like 8-10 goals, maybe like 13 in all competitions.
>>121527741Dont expect goals. Fabio will the man for that.
>>121524981>beat PSG and Newcastle Based Kroenke Jr going for them AY-RABS
He'll get 20 goals at least next season...I'll bet money on it
>>121527805I'm getting on board with Nketia early in the work football chat 'listen I think he's got a season in him'
>>121527833he'll be our best signing behind Fabio, that's my prediction
5 goals in the league cup, 5 goals in the fa cup, 8 goals in the league and 2 in europa is my optimistic prediction for Jesus
>>121527953those splits don't add up, unless you think he'll be playing second fiddle to Nketiah?
>>121527953>5 goals in the league cup, 5 goals in the fa cupEddie is gonna play thoseJesus will get 17 in the league and a few in the Europa knock out stages
>>121527953>not playing nketiah in the league cup
>>12152798217 in the fucking league lmao. You think his finishing is on par with son and salah? Get a grip
>>121528017Wanna bet?
I managed to filter the tripfaggot on my phone. I’m so happy now we just need signings!
>>121528543Took you long enough.
>>121528543Well done.
Honestly, I can imagine Jesus as the new Gervinho. Works hard, gets in great positions, and then totally blows the easiest of finishes.
>>121528549>>121528563Cheers the setting never worked on iOS and when I switched to desktop mode and saved it there it worked.
>>121528635I fear he's either gonna be the next William and fuck off next season or he's gonna make City regret selling him, no inbetweens.Btw have you seen the news?
any drunk chinese guys ITT?
>>121524024It's starting to get beyond funny now. He is constantly making different bait posts and getting no replies; but keeps on posting.
gabriel jesus more like gabriel penis
>>121528635Laca worked hard and got into great positions too.It seriously feels like >we've just signed Lacazette again. Iirc he cost about 50m pounds and was 26 years old.
>>121528765>Btw have you seen the news?Meme magic.>>121528820No, I just live here.
>>121529247Laca with 6 years of EPL experience
>>121523945Just trust the process
>>121529247Yeah, but Gervinho could actually dribble and run and not get gassed after 20 minutes. He'd look great with the ball at his feet running down the outside. But then would come the time he'd need to shoot or cross. That's when he'd spill his spaghetti and hit the ball out for a throw-in.Shit like this:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5C9OjIVIDhs
>>121529351Here's hoping that experience is worth something.
>>121526679He just needs time.
>lacais dogshit, don't bring him up
https://twitter.com/ManCity/status/1541075717462626307?s=20&t=IyQeTRoYvgDAiBlfuR_c4g
If Lelsea don't strengthen I see both Arsenal and Tottenham finishing above them.
>RaphinhaIs he worth it? He seems like a fag that gives up as soon as anything goes bad.
>>121530585Quite the opposite actually, if she goes bad he'd get a booking by try harding it.Or do you mean the season itself going bad? I don't think he'd do that either, he gave 100% for Leeds to keep them from getting relegated.
>>121530585From what I've seen Leeds play he seems like the opposite. Maybe a bit too hot headed though.
>>121530623if shit* goes bad
>>121530585>He seems like a fag that gives up as soon as anything goes badHe'll fit in well at Arsenal then.
>>121530645Yeah, thats what i was thinking, hot headed.
>>121524291Do you know where I can pirate ebooks?
>>121530758Libgen#bookz on irc
>>121530811da fuk, people still use IRC?
>>121530854Yeah, look up nzbget. Think 4chan mods and jannies use it for communication too.I only use it for books though.
>>121530898I'll look into that, Brazil bro. I'd recommend zLibrary for ebooks, though.
>>121530758>>121530973>zLibrary
>>121530811Got what I wanted from Lingen. Not sure what the 2nd thing is though. Thanks huebro
>>121531001Libgen*
A "reliable source" back in /trans/ says:>Bryan Gil, William Saliba and Nuno Tavares to OMWhat do _we_ make of it?
Christ
>>121530623>if she goes bad he'd get a booking by try harding itinb4 a red and 5 games ban on the opening evening
Leno; Tierney, Gabriel, White, Saliba, Tomi; Partey, Tielemans, Vieira; Saka, Jesus, Raphinha.That's the team.
>>121523905This, but unironically.Top 4 means more than the League Cup and FA Cup.
>>121531558Absolutely cursed
Fabrizio Romano@FabrizioRomano·51sGabriel Jesus to Arsenal, here we go! Personal terms fully agreed with his agent Marcelo Pettinati and his two partners. Gabriel signs until 2027, it’s 100% done. #AFCArsenal already agreed £45m fee with Man City as revealed on Friday.Edu & Arteta, key for the deal.
Can't tell if this is a legit pic or just another convincing edit
As a rival fan I’m not worried about arsenal signing Jesus and that should worry you
>>121531671>No XhakaTry again good sir
>>121532541Thanks for sharing, dear
>>121531524Think Romano said something about Gil and Nuno being linked to OM. Haven’t heard anything about Saliba
>>121531671Also try to stay with 11 players. I mean the referees should let us play with 12 because of all the shit they have been given us the past seasons but I don't think it is going to happen.
bros... how could this happen?https://archive.vn/88fHehow could vlahovic not even want to consider us?
CRABS OUT BOYS WE MADE A SIGNING
>>121457633Shit team
Is this arsenals big striker signing? How will you react when you realise Jesus couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn door?
>>121532425shop of course and a bad one at that, look at the shirt on the right side.
>>121533027Ten times better than NShitiah, Lacashit, and last-two-years-Aubamashit
>>121533139Also about 10 times worse and less exciting than Vlahovic.
>>121533262He didn't want to come, though, so upwards and onwards, innit.Also Vlahovic had 9 goals in 21 appearances for Juve. That's not very impressive
>>121533034If anything, the Jesus is fake (pun intended).Pasted over a real photo of an unnamed Arsenal jersey.
>>121533319>Also Vlahovic had 9 goals in 21 appearances for JuveEmbarrassing cope. He joined in January and went from attacking Fiorentina to defensive Allegri Juventus.Anyone can see from watching him that he's an outstanding talent and one of the most exciting strikers in the world right now. He would easily be Arsenal's best player right now and it wouldn't even be close.
>>121533348>implying Juventus doesn't create more chances than Fiorentinakek
>>121533371>implying Italian teams, big or small, don't put out 150% effort against the Juve
>>121533371Yeah you're definitely a brainlet who doesn't understand football very well.
>>121533399>tf>tp
>>121533397>he doesn't score a lot because the opposition is trying REALLY hardholy cope>>121533399not an argument. See how many chances he had per game for Juve vs. the service he had at Fiorentina. All I'm saying is that 9 goals in 21 isn't that impressive.
>yfw Jesus scores more next season that Haaland, vlahovic etc.
>>121533454I already filled the "Edu apologies" flysheet for this case.
>>121533446and i'm correctly labeling you a brainlet. he's a young player and transferred to a club with a very different playing style in the middle of a season. again, anyone with a football IQ can very clearly see he has all the attributes expected of a world class player, and would take him in a heartbeat over someone like gabriel jesus.
>>121533518He didn't want to come, so why do you keep persisting in saying that? What's the point? Kevin de Bruyne doesn't want to play for Arsenal either, but he'd be a nice addition. who gives a shit
>>121533574>so why do you keep persisting in saying that?Only because you persisted with the brainlet cope of "w-well he's only kicked 9 goals in 21 appearances for juventus!"
>>121533624Yeah, that's not very impressive
>>121533669thank you for further proving you're a football-illiterate brainlet :)
>>121533695Okay, you're right. 9 goals in 21 games for what is on paper the best team in the league is actually very impressive.
>>121533728>for what is on paper the best team in the leagueDoubling down on your stupidity i see.
I don’t want to jinx it, but it feels like >we could actually win the Europa League this time.
>>121533853its on
>>121533853Not with Gabriel Jesus.
>>121533832>*farts into your mouth*
>>121533454It will be good karma for Willian.
