MaVilla Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Bissouma or Gallagher a central defender (so many choices, so not sure!!) Darwin Nunez maybe an AM..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mentioned it yesterday but if there were a player we were to annoy Arsenal again over it'd be Saliba for me. Hugely unlikely they'd want to sell him to another PL side - if at all - but I saw talk that he could be available for around €30-ish million which could be a steal if he carries on his form from Marseille where he's been an absolute joke this season. Won YPOTY, named in team of the year and in the same team as Kamara at that which could be a help. Obligatory YouTube scenes: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I’ve mentioned earlier in this thread, he's an older, slower, less efficient version of what we already have. Had one outstanding season five years ago and over 30% of his goals since have come on penalties. Edited May 24, 2022 by VillaHatesMe 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obligatory YouTube scenes: Apparently he'd like to go back to Marsielle but they are unlikely to be able to afford him. He has only two years left on his Arsenal contract, so I reckon they'd sell if they got a good offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Italy have a massive shortage of top quality strikers which is the only reason why the likes of Belotti and Immobile have got anywhere near the national team. I've watched Belotti a few times and I have yet to find a single thing about his game that I think is decent. He's like a really poor version of Keinan Davis but without any of his redeeming qualities / potential. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s hit double figures in all but this season for Torino, and he’s played for Torino teams that are at best mid table and at worst relegation candidates.

At the same time there is a reason that none of the better teams in Serie A have signed him. From what I have seen - he has no real pace, he's not that good in the air, his touch (for an Italian) is nothing to write home about and he doesn't seem very good at making space for himself. I guess that the one plus point he does have is that he is pretty good from the penalty spot - which is why his scoring record looks artificially good. He'd look dreadful playing anywhere near Coutinho and Emi2 and would detract from their skills and strengths. So far removed from what we need - which is a striker with quick feet, good acceleration to burst through onto slide passes from Emi and Coutinho and a good temperament in front of goal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My number 1 target for the rest of the window. No disrespect to the likes of Countinho and Bailey but neither give you much defensively, and I don’t really want to see Ramsey 50 yard from goal either. A solid base of Kamara and Bissouma allows all of our attacking talent to do what they do best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
