Is this Lemar really any good and a player Arsenal need? Seems like it might happen according to today's media articles.

Next season is going to be super competitive.

Liverpool, Arsenal, Spurs, Man U, Man C, Chelsea all capable of winning the league.

Then you've got Everton investing heavily and West Ham doing some rebuilding.

FIFA are going to have to give England 5 champions league spots soon.

Seen a few YouTube highlight vids on Lemar, seems to be pretty good. Was excellent for Monaco last season when they won the French title and got to the CL semi's. And also helped dump Spurs out of the CL places, always a good thing:p

Is he a player we need?? He's pretty versatile, can play through the middle or on the wings. Doesn't have lots of pace but pretty smart with passes and link up play with teammates.

Not sure where he will fit into our squad as we have enough mids. Guess it depends on who we sell this yr.

If he's not pacy then he doesn't sound like a good fit. Wenger likes he's winger to have pace.
 
The guy is classy as ****, would be a massive signing, another left footer as well. Would love to see him, Ozil, Sanchez and Lacazette together..

True but Wenger may play him through the middle but we are stacked with mids at the moment. As i said it all depends on who we sell and how much we get, Lemar will at least go for £50mill.
 
Must be a slow news day...

"Mourinho confirms two targets"

Well that's what it equals when two of the four players required have been signed. It's been well known since the end of the season that he wanted 4. How is this news?! Argghhh.

Getting exasperated by the lack of signings and if I hear any more about Perisic I might cry. Only upside is that Dier news seems to have died.
 
Iheanacho looked like a really good young player but Gabriel Jesus looks a class above. I think City would have done a lot better last season had he not got injured.
 
The price being quoted for Mbappe has to be wrong. What metric of evaluation is making RM think that he is worth increasing the largest transfer fee by 60%!?

He's scored 16 goals at senior level in his career!!!
 
If Mbappe goes for £161m then that's mental. Assuming he realises his potential, as Mourinho said in the past, it'll make Pogba look cheap.

They'd sell him for a fair whack, and presumably there's a strong chance they'd do it with a variety of sell on clauses/buy back clauses/etc. Their 'problem' is they have Jesus and Aguero (with the latter seeming to have adapted to have Guardiola wants him to play etc), so how much game time would Ihenacho get? Is it more sensible to sell and use the money getting depth at full back/midfield? As it stands they still have Bony as their fourth option... four pretty good ones, tbh.

You could compare it with you and Lukaku + Martial and Rashford. Does the fact Lukaku is the main man mean the oppportunites for the others are so restricted as to make it sensible to let one of them move on? Perhaps not with Manyoo as those players can play from out wide, or I've seen stuff about Rashford behind Lukaku in the centre, but with citeh they have say Sterling/Sane as the wide ones so Ihenacho wouldn't be playing from those positions. So maybe consider how it'd change for you if you had an amazing left winger.

The issue for Iheanacho isn't the players in front of him but the type of player he is. Ihenacho's a penalty box/fox in the box striker - he doesn't have the complete game or offer enough outside the 6 yard box to box to have a future under Guardilola. You only have to look at his treatment of Aguero last season to see the demands he has on his strikers.

Completely agree on the Jesus point. In the games he played he really looked like something special and he's the one player I'm actually excited to see next season.
 
RM won't sell Bale. Ronaldo only has a few more years left in him and Bale is his logical successor at the moment. They don't need to sell, they don't want to sell and Bale doesn't want to leave.
