Very impressed with that. Would be a fantastic signing. The only real negative if he were to replace Eriksen is that he seems very one footed.

Lo Celso and Grealish both look like great candidates for general squad (and/or Lamela) upgrades however. Both seem comfortable in deeper midfield as well as attacking areas. We need more creative depth even if Eriksen stays.

Would be prefect. Lo Ceslo can only use his left. Grealish can only use his right. Wish you could meld them together.

Really hope Derby wins this wknd.

I'm not even going to let myself get excited by this. Those on here that know me know how much I wax lyrical about this kid. I wanted us to sign him last summer and have followed him since he moved to PSG. He is an exceptional talent and a very clever footballer. He would be absolutely perfect for Poch. Regardless of who we sell he should be very near the top of our list.

I seriously like the look of this guy and seems can play deep, centre and more advanced, with a small squad that kind of flexibility is a massive plus.

On a separate note, his fellow countryman Exequiel Palacios is being linked to the Gooners with an £18m release clause being touted. Was it Ossie who said he was one of the best prospects in South America at present...?

I'll fucking cry if Arsenal get Palacios

Yeah I like the look of him, I wonder if it would only happen if Eriksen leaves though.

I would really hope not, he is versatile as well. He started as a second striker against RM, although obviously he's better deeper.

Surprised we're not looking at the circa £20 million mooted. Although limited time seeing him play, he looks a tidy player, and one I believe could handle the rigours of the premier league and excel.

Haven't seen City mentioned at all but there have been recent stories about Atletico wanting him.

Reckon if Eriksen stayed, he'd be a solution to our lack of creativity from the midfield 2 and eriksen wouldn't have to constantly drop deep - though he is effective there.

If Eriksen does leave, as mentioned by numerous people before, I reckon we'll change systems with hopefully players like Lo Celso and Ndombele coming into to add more creativity overall than what the current system offers.

Ndombele is going to cost more.

I think Ndombele probably goes for similar to De Jong - circa £65m. I'd still have him as #1 target.

I'd love to see us move Lamela on and bring in one of Grealish or Lo Celso though. If he's settled in Spain and Atleti come in I think Lo Celso goes there though.

No place for Lamela. 6 years here, most of the time he's injured. He had great start of the season and the dissappeard for like 5-6 months. He is on pretty high wage as well. We have to replace him.
JJ ITK preferred to Moura, which I think is nuts but says it all as to where he will be next season.
