Richarlison

They do need to balance the books tbf RE: financial fair play, and Richarlison's the only one that would go for decent money ( can't see them letting DCL go)

I will take Richarlison then, actually will send them Lacca for free. Will be interesting to see if they can sell in January though.

So Xhaka doesn't do his job to cover in the space between Gabriel and Tierney, allowing Richarlson acres of space to head in a rebound and that makes him Arsenal bound? A lot of players suddenly want to leave Everton. Has Moshiri had enough?

I think they have had enough and Richarlison is what we don’t have in our attack a presser and finisher.

He is perfect for us and can see Saka and Smith-rowe become more of a threat. Even Odegaard will look lethal if we can get proper CF. We should also get another midfielder to help Smith-rowe from burning out, Renato-Sanchez could be ideal.

I agree a top class CF would make a difference though we are constantly linked with Calvert Lewis and now Richarlson. That tells me more of the player situation at Everton. I don't think either really top class or they would be banging in the goals for Rafa who is another defensive coach much like Arteta. Any players looks good under a top class manager. The really unique players are the ones who look good under an average one.

If richarlison becomes available then I can see bigger clubs than arsenal being interested too

He is a very good player ….seems to get better every season he plays up front now

Didn’t psg want him at one point?

NO WAY IN HELL should Mikel Areta be given another penny to spend on transfers until he's actually produced something of note for the 200 mil he's spent already. Especially not the amount Everton would be stinging us to get him. Arteta needs telling 4th place with what he's got now or GTF OUT at the end of the season. Then as soon as he's done failing miserably...AGAIN, we can get a decent manager in and give him any further transfer investment.

Enough with the endless chances and money to fail with for Arteta now. And certainly no spending for him this Jan, we've wasted enough AFC cash on this loser already. But by all means let his replacement buy Richarlison, fine with that. But Arteta gettin him won't change the fact we lose numerous games we should because Areta is a self-sabotaging disaster of a manager. And not because we don't have a Richarlison type player (as useful as he'd be in this side if managed by someone who actually knows how to manage a football team).

Richarlison would be ideal replacement for Lacca all day long. Then in summer we can address Auba replacement he’s finished.

I really wanted him to succeed and still think we should give him until end of season and then decide. However, some of his decisions the last two away games has made me think he is either stubborn or just clueless.

Not subbing Xhaka after long lay off was a disastrous decision and subbing Tierney was just pointless. Nketia coming on was frustrating instead of awful Auba who could still have scored that chance we missed.

Playing El neny not Lokonga was just criminal.

Not playing Pepe is just frustrating the guy is a goal threat and AMN never seems to get fair chance I don’t know wtf is going on with Arteta, crazy fack.

Didn't Everton pay like 50m for Richarlison? I rate him but assuming you'd have to pay over that it doesn't seem like there's value there. Talented but inconsistent and he has a weird temperament. Though granted, he's PL proven so maybe the 60m+ is well spent.

posted on 9/12/21

Pepe has kinda brought it on himself because he did get a fair few starts and looked still on holiday. But he should have been brought back by now. Everton game should have been Pepe and Gabi starting and Saka not even on the bench.

He's just taking the ps with AMN. He has a mission to keep that kid at Arsenal and try to squash his career. He called BS when Arteta shovelled it and now he's paying the price. Unless there's major injury to two of our MFs, he'll barely see any gametime again this season. Arteta can kill any MF career for him now, simply by not letting him play enough to keep gain positional experience, improve and press on there.

Oh and he's BOTH clueless and stubborn. A seriously bad combination in most cases but particularly team management (any kind of team).

posted on 9/12/21

Wb2 I don't buy the AMN thing. He gave him a chance and Maitland-Niles has excelled. He was Motm vs Leeds (although didn't get it) and followed it up with another Motm performance against Watford. But he is new to the position and under pressure and I don't think Arteta trusts him.

What I don't understand is bringing back Xhaka at breakneck speed. What type of performance did he expect? Its Arteta's blind spots that do not make a good manager. Arteta gave him a new contract and he was terrible at the start of the season where we couldn't buy a game. And then after he got injured we went on a unbeaten run, putting us back into contention for top 4. Why can't Arteta see how bad he is. Its one thing to lose to Liverpool at Anfield which almost all clubs do and quite another to lose to a relegation threatened Everton with Xhaka and Man Utd with Eleneny in a confidence crisis.

My main worry with him is whether he'll ever master staying onside. He seems no better at it now than he was the day he arrived in PL, he'd infuriate me as a manager. If he learns to get that right and does a little more growing up he's got the chance to become something quite special. He reminds me of Ronaldo 1 albeit nowhere near as clinical. He's every bit as "bully boy with pace" though.

You're probably right Jenius but I like demonising Arteta. Makes it easier to accept him destroying our team

I have no idea what playing Xhaka was about, I felt sorry for him. He would struggle to keep up playing that way, fully fit and in form. To start him and play him as long as he did was just insane. It's that sort of move that has me wondering about Arteta's true motives where AMN is concerned. I mean to choose a 70-80% fit, just returning Xhaka over a 100% fit and playing well AMN. I find it difficult to accept trusting the player as the issue, because there was no way Xhaka could be trusted there more than Ains with the circumstances going against Xhaka. Hard to see justification in the managers decision without an element of ulterior motive being behind the decision. Though it needn't be to the severe degree I suggested.

On playing form I actually think it's AMN/Sambi we should be seeing for a couple games. Xhaka's miles off ready and Partey's just struggling to keep up generally. That's not likely without an injury to Partey though and I don't wish that.

Currently, probably but only in terms of how good he is right now. In terms of how good he can become if the right manager can temper him, not at all. He's got everything needed to become devastating to defences, it's just whether he manages to pull it all together.

Which players want to leave? I've heard of teams wanting their players but I haven't heard anything about them wanting to leave.

Richarlison comes across as a bit of c*nt so I guess he will fit right in at Arsenal.

The reason why you hear about players is because their agents start to approach other clubs for possible moves.

Not always, in fact, most football gossip is nonsense.

I agree most football gossip is nonsense. However multiple players from the same club is different. Its not a stretch especially after a new manager takes over and performs poorly. Agents don't allow their clients to remain under a stink for a long time in case it sticks and devalues them.
