Rumour is Guehi, Kenan Yildiz and some young kid Bouaddi at Lille. Those are listed as having substance.View attachment 178712
Which position do they look for?
There are Internet soundbites about Karim Adeyemi, Michael Olise and even Semenyo but we've just invested heavily in those areas and it seems unrealistic given the fees that would be demanded.

I very highly doubt we'll sign anyone unless we get a major injury or 2 in January. Squad is quite stacked and guys like Havertz, White and Mosquera should be back by the next 2 or 3 weeks.

And, as I said, xG is meaningless. But you seemed keen to compare Arsenal's stats with their xG. Ah well; each to their own.I don't quite get you Jim, why would I deny it? It's a stat I used to back up what I was seeing over the last few games. I agree with you that the scoreboard and the points are what matters, my point is that our finishing was poor, and it's probably indicative of the fact we probably still lack elite finishers given Gyokeres has been a flop.

I mean, I could have just came on and said I think you're all wrong and Arsenal did create chances the previous few games, they just missed them, but as an oppo fan id be shot down like usual, so thought I'd at least just tried to show some attacking stats to back up what I'm saying, and then get shot down anyway. :-)

He is, but only when he turns up.He may look 45, but Trossard is a hell of a player.
Rest of the time he sends that 45 year old ref to cover…

You're right, there are internet soundbites on Semenyo, just not for your club.Rumour is Guehi, Kenan Yildiz and some young kid Bouaddi at Lille. Those are listed as having substance.

Fuckinghell, you make us sound so sinister…like an ever looming death just hanging in the air waiting for an open window…You almost make sense until I politely point out that the Dippers of last season who probably were slightly better than your current lot but not by much would have been almost out of sight by now.
They did what you are failing to do and that was have the league sewn up by Christmas and in doing so killing off any moral and hope from other potential title challengers.
You talk about having hard games out of the way but in a tight title run in there are no easy matches and the quality of teams usually takes a backseat to who can hold their nerve and have a better mentality. This is usually where City come into their own. We only lose if you blow us away early. Invite us into the race (which your doing) and recent history says it’s not going to end well for you.
You just can't let it go, can you?
Seems to be a common thing when people are replying from you today Jim.

Och Jim, I mean no harm, I'll do what you suggest and just let it go.

I would, if I were you. If I went onto an Arsenal forum, and pulled the same stunt, I'm guessing I wouldn't be on there long.Och Jim, I mean no harm, I'll do what you suggest and just let it go.

Not sure it's much of a stunt, I suppose I must get held to a different standard mind you.

Ok Jim, I've had discussions both direct and indirect on this and Scottish football threads with you for over a decade now on here but still getting hit with this.
No probs.
