      I know that it is probably impossible we even consider Lacazette but for the sake of the discussion I would say that apart from Tierney, Partey, Martinelli and Saka (maybe I'm forgetting another name or two) there's nothing that could interest us in this team. The rest of their squad is either overrated or they have some notable attitude issues that wouldn't fly with Klopp and our squad.

      I for example couldn't see a guy like Guendouzi surviving in our environment despite his undeniable potential.

      Probably why they binned Guendouzi first chance they got.
      Smith Rowe seems to be one with some potential as well, but otherwise I agree with you. That Arsenal team is really nothing special.

      The front 3 should be started to turn over this year and pretty sure would of done if it wasn't for restrictions with Finances

      Disagree it should have started this summer. They're all 29 and still in their prime for a couple years, so there is no need to split them up at this moment but that day is certainly approaching. I expect next summer we'll see the first shoe drop and one of them go as we simply cannot have all 3 get old together and end up with 3 33/34 year olds on big wages as Klopp looks to move in 2024.

      I don't think Lacazette is a good fit for the 5th spot. His wages would be too high and he's still young enough where he would want more consistent playing time anyway.

      Any old timers out there who could be had on a 1-year deal? Think Cavani/Ibra type players.

      Tierney = poor man's Robbo
      Partey = poor man's Fab
      Martinelli = poor man's Jota

      Saka is the only one I'd have here.

      Average team who will stay average.

      Tierney is a a great player. Robbo is better but both top 5 left backs in world.

      Saka is a talent, no more at this stage.

      Tierney is brilliant. Just because Robertson is better doesn’t make him tierney any less of a player

      I think we have lots of midfield options without replacing Gini it's just fitness is the issue. Keeping virg and Gomez fit will be a big boost. Getting Traore could be a game changer that gives us better options up top. Mane and Traore on the flanks with Salah through the middle could work wonders for us

      Talk of Traore's price being like 60m last summer...this summer no real talk of him moving at all. There's likely a reason for that.

      He's a speed merchant, not much else.

      Agreed. Be very surprised if he's under consideration. If he wasn't sh*t quick and built like a tank he would be at Wigan Athletic.

      2 seasons ago he had 9 assist. He was a mother f**ker down the wing and created a ton of chances. Klopp has said numerous times that our game plan primarily revolved around stopping him. 

      He had a bad year, but they had a lot going on. Jota was gone, Neto was in and out, and he had injuries himself. Under Klopp he could be a monster 😉

      Exactly. Speed merchent with no end product. Would need an amazing season this year and then talk about him next summer.

      If we're signing guys off their form a year ago then might as well get Pukki and Willian.

      Clearly? Really, mate?

      Neto looks a proper player and I forsee us actually in for him next season. I think he's hurt atm. I don't see us actually in for Adama, and for his price its probably best we steer clear. All I'm saying is there is a stud player in that tank of a man, and he's shown flashes of brilliance before. He had a terrible year last year, but the year before he was terrifying. Klopp has always seemed to be an admirer of him, so that means something too.

      With that said he's kind of boom or bust. I'd go a safer route and try and lock down Malen. Maybe even move for Neto a year early.

      Off topic, what's the number beside Harvey Barnes name? Tell me it isn't something silly like 40 mil?

      We should sell the following players to raise funds: Ben Davies, one of Nat Phillips/Matip, Karius, Ojo, Origi, Neco Williams, Woodburn, Shaqiri, Minamino, Adrian, Chamberlain (not so sure here).

      Signing at least 2 players of the following will help us alot:

      Midfield: Odegaard (good versatile young player who would massively improve under Klopp, available for around 45 mil), Barella (to take Gini's place, difficult to sign and would command a big fee), Camavinga (great talent in last year of contract, should be available for around 20-25 mil i guess), Gravenbech (incredible talent, but not sure about how much he would cost), Bellingham (probably would cost a fortune), Renato Sanches (a huge gamble), Taun Koopmeiners (one of the best midfielders in Eredivisie, can play in defence also), Tielemans (see Bellingham), Carlos Soler or Musah (best midfielders at Valencia who are in financial trouble)

      Winger/Attackers: Doku (looked great at Euro), Isak (young striker which proved himself at Sociedad), Neto (much better alternative to limited Adama), Boadu (as we know, strikers from Eredivisie are hit or miss).

      Disagree with you on Tierney and Martinelli. Tierney is a very good left-back. As for Martinelli look out what the boss thinks about him. Both those players are already good as is and have a ton of potential. Its sad to see them lose crucial years in this Arsenal team.

      Yep - you could see that when we played Salzburg , during periods for Southampton and  a couple times with us - it appears to be a physicality issue with him as opposed to ability

      Contracts running down run the risk of losing for small or no fee. Question would you not have sold one to get Sancho in ? Because I would

      So still nothing going on then. Seems like the theme for this window. Not many clubs have spent yet.

      I'd have Lacazette in a heartbeat over Origi.
