We paid a premium to stop him signing for Real Madrid on a free next summer.

If signing the best young talent in world football is being a basket case then let's hope we keep being a basket case.
Hope does well as he’s a young man, but Madrid backing off is not a good sign. With tchou when psg tried to up the price Madrid went up as well and took him away.

How does Timber, Tomiyasu, Zinny fit now that we’ve got our new shiny toy in Calafiori. Is he trying to give Gabriel more rest? Doubt that…I’m assuming Timber/Tomi goes to right more to spell Benny?

That’s a lot of left footed defenders.

Edit: Tierney and Kiwior still here too :dead:

By all accounts they can't really afford to go up at the moment, especially if they want to do other business. And the difference is Tchouaméni was 22 when they signed him, ready to come in and make a big contribution, Yoro is 18 and may have rode the bench while he developed.

We're in a position to give him A LOT of playing time right now.

Now that the negotiations with Bologna are wrapped up

Arsenal need to be aggressive and find an LCM and a striker. Preferably both

None of those boys are gonna get any minutes from Arteta
Genuine question - when exactly is Arteta supposed to give these teenagers game time? The league cup? And if Arsenal lose in the early rounds because they were playing youth players then what would the general response be?

Arsenal has one of the youngest teams in the league. All Arteta does is play youth lol. He built the core of his entire team around them.

Real spent 60m for 15 year old Endrick :sas1:
Your club is a basket case

Arsenal have been losing in the early rounds, for a while now:pachaha:
Losing playing youngsters shouldn't be a big deal.
Arteta has done very well with the team, but integrating the younger academy players has been one of weaknesses.
