frabrizio says we’re going hard after eze. i’d love that. former hale end youth player, loves arsenal, doesn’t break the bank, and fills a role we really need (plus hopefully he and nwaneri can play some backup to odegaard as well). i’d really love to sign him, big fan.

And now Ornstein is mentioning Eze, with the nugget that it wouldn't close the door on signing a RW as well.    Eze, $$ RW, and a 9.   That is the kind of business they should've done last summer window, or the one before or the one before that...

Summer 21, 22, and 23 and January 23 (Trossard, Kiwior, and Jorginho) were big windows. Serious cash was splashed for a club outside the CL and massive upgrades arrived.

Last summer…. Not do much.  A dud: Calafiori showed promise when healthy, but he was rarely healthy. Merino, signed to play left eight, became more valuable as a striker because we had neglected the position. Then January was nothing. 

If club was really keeping the powder dry, they need to use it now. Striker, winger, and a defender who can get play LB (or cover those who can) are all needs, and I’d like another creative MF, too.

Looks like it’s Gyökeres; he’s the “win now” player at the peak of his powers vs Sesko who may have a higher ceiling in 4 years. £56m with £9-13m in performance add-ons. Leipzig reportedly want north of £80m and won’t budge. There’s also reports he wants a move to Liverpool and is willing to wait another year for them to get him.  

I also understand Arteta wanting the new striker to have a full preseason to get integrated into the side.

he’s a ready-made, goal scoring beast, and he looked awesome against us last year. can’t wait to have him in the team.

Yup. Not to mention a smaller fee on the 9 also allows us more room to maneuver on winger and defender deals. Also, should have thought a few years ago that £56m + 9-13m would be the bargain.
