Thanks for watching/listening and… COYG! 🤝 - Zábava
Thing with midfielders from France is that you could end up with a Tchouaméni / Camavinga but you could also end up with a Ndombele or Bakayoko. Very risky.
Low risk in terms of cost though.
He would cost as much as Sambi basically...absolutely no loss situation
You can use that analogy for any league
French players are a lot better than English players for sure
Excellent work George. I love this player and have enjoyed watching him. He’s absolutely courageous and has the gift on the ball to exert his influence of courageous authority.
Paul Pogba was that elite authority on the ball able to do everything a dream no6 must do. So, the biggest question will be things we didn’t see about Fofana, such as mentality, and ability to learn and respond to a continued learning environmental culture. Some players have all those qualities but fail to take in the continued education at a very high and demanding level.
Great managers have repeatedly overlooked Fofana and I wonder why? Few can match the lofty talent he displays every game.
What I know is that Mikel Arteta prioritizes the players with a certain “teachable spirit” like Saka, Odegaard, Saliba, Partey, Trossard, Rice…players who also posses great talent and are very ambitious and hungry, yet their feet are deeply planted in the ground.
When did Paul Pogba ever play great as a 6? Even when he won the world cup l, Kante played the 6 role
Sure
The rashford x fofana podcast
Soon come 👀
No to rashford
3-2-3-2 with Rice & Fofana next to each other in midfield. With Harvertz partnering someone in the Sesko role. ODEGAARD in the 10 with Saka and Martinelli flanking him. I think this is Arteta's solution to improve us next season.
😂 Bruh, nobody knows what arteta's gonna do next season
Who makes the 3rd at the back? Timber or Rice?
@michaelmatthews8180 Sounds really interesting, but very offensive tho. And IT would mean that Ben White's out of the team ?
🤦🏻♂️
Fofana has made great progress since he joined France Team. Deschamps coaching helped him progressing and being less raw. Arrêta could push this further. He would be a cunning signing for us.
COYG!
2:08 Ten Hag catching strays 🤣🤣
Last year we lost out kuddus I don't wanna us loose on fofana and we regret later because Partey is injury prone, and Rice cannot handle all the many fixtures he will get tired.we need to rotate the squad to keep players fresh
I don't see why every player needs to be an heir to another player. A player can join a team, and define his role and build his legacy. Fofana is good enough as Fofana. Doesn't need to be another player
Arsenal play so well with partey.. if you can find a player with a similar skillset then you're in dreamland
Just helps people visualize for a starting point.
That visualization is unfortunately the same yardstick that measures success or failure of a player. How many times have we see careers going down because someone was dubbed "The Next...". Eagles was dubbed the next Beckham and he crumbled within one season because of all the expectations placed on him. Players need to be allowed to forge their own path
Imagine if Bruno selects Man City but on the way to sign he realises he will be playing in League 2 if he goes thru with it 😳😩
What annoyed the heck out of me is that we won't buy him, then after next season we want to buy him from Villa for 100mil.there are some players you can just see they are made for us. Isak, Kudus, Fofana. And All were cheap and gettable
We wanted Kudus last season, but FFP prevented us from making the offer, so West Ham snatched him. It wasn't like we were not trying to buy him.
@@duongkhoanguyen4695 answer this, would you have bought Kai over Kudus? 🤔
@@SFP0181can kudus play as a LCM or a striker? No, he mostly plays as a RW, RCM and his profile wasn't what we needed
@@SFP0181 maybe, but I'm not Mikel Arteta am I? However Havertz has been good too so I don't feel regret about that. If anything is possible I'd rather have both of them than only having one over the other.
@@jacobalexander4167 actually, he plays across the whole front line and in the 8s/10, so yeah
I know very little of Fofana but the analysis from you guys does portray the kind of player we need.
The only caveat is that in order to wrestle the title from City and save the PL.... I feel we need to sign PL proven.
I would love Luiz but can't see it being a realistic deal to get done.
Although they are different profiles, I can see the likes of Eze or Gallagher thriving at Arsenal.
Though, signing or more attack minded midfielder does commit Rice to the 6 role.
I really like what James Benge said on the Inside Arsenal pieodcast, and I am paraphrasing a bit: If we cannot sign the long term midfield star we can sign a depth player or a clear temporary solution.
Finding players that improves the Arsenal team, suits Artetas ideas and is available on the market is not easy at all.
Finding suitable depth players to cover and rotate is easier and might be the better current option.
Great show guys. Can you take a look at Zubimendi and/or Zerkzee. Both have real quality imo
George was the one that convinced me on D.Rice before he even was linked to Arsenal,so I trust his opinion on Fofana
I would love to see your take on Mikel Merino (duel winning machine) vs Martin Zubmendi. I believe that we should go for Merino as he is more athletic and offers dynamism in the midfield like a mix of jorginho and partey but a bit younger and with a lot of experience
If we get Fofana and loose Partey I'd like us to go for a De Jong/Eze/Gibbs-White or just any more attacking and creative profile. Obviously Musiala would be unreal but I think thats a bit of a pipe dream.
I maintain we should get 2 midfielders if Partey leaves, in addition to a ST and RW/LW.
Hopefully not an heir, dont want anymore half season injuries😅
😅😅😅I get the joke
Arteta has to compete on all fronts next season because it's time Arsenal win something. Squad depth is a necessity, not an option. We need to have 2 strong teams with as minimal as 3 players not replaced.
Fofana or Onana or Fofana and Onana?
I would love a fofana and Eze midfield summer. Progression in carries & passing.
Wharton & Olise for £100m would be a great summer in my book. I have not seen much of Eze but will watch the England highlights tonight
You man tell Edu to get fofana done
In general, we don't need to improve the first team in terms of signings if we have everyone fit for the entire season.
In terms of availability and/or the squad position they have held it's basically Partey and Eddie that really needs replacing. Fofana and Sesko seems to be good options for that.
As for moving ESR and Vieira on I think keeping them as possible cover options for Odegaard and Saka is more important than the possible gain on the business side of things as we are lacking people that may slot in.
A lot will depend on what version of Gabi Jesus comes back to us after the summer break, how will that impact Arsenal moving forward. If we have a fit Jesus then there is little need for a winger, of not then there may be room to improve on the left side depending on Martinelli.
As for Trossard he is great but there has to be another long term plan on the left side since he is our oldest forward even though he is on the right level.
As for Nelson, Elneny and Cederic I don't think they warrant replacement. If anything the CZcams players can fill those.
this would completely neglect Martinelli/ our left side even more, doesnt work for me.. but good squad rotation option for 20m - get me Douglas Luiz given Villa's financial position or Neves/De Jong, as we need a passer who can unlock Martinelli more than anything else in the forward areas
I’d love a scouting video on Joao Neves.
Is Joao Neves worth £100m? His low centre of gravity combined with his passing makes me fall in love with his potential next to Rice and Odegaard.
He's not worth £100m LMFAO
@@justicedemocrat9357 He shouldn't be, but this market is very inflated. His upside is unlike any other available midfielder in the market.
We need a 6!to move rice forward for me bruno is signing for us
We have to replace Elneny too remember! Justified.
Just finished watching and then saw he's going to AC Milan 😂
Surely we should be going all out for Luiz if Villa have to sell ?
Apparently he wants to go to AC Millan. But if we can change his mind then I'd definitely go for him.
Sounds like he could be also be a useful substitute to change things up when we're chasing a game.
Too many Damn Fofanas!!!
Arsenal needs to move fast to avoid other clubs fighting for what we spot. Get fofana, sesko, niko Williams and hato
If we bring in Fofana, we must rotate him and Partey. Not sure he would be Partey replacement.
mid table club deffo picking him up next season
I believe he (Youssouf Fofana) is a perfect hybrid (6/8) midfielder we need to pair with Declan Rice (8/6). This would allow both of them to possibly swap roles during games, which could bring more variability and unpredictability to our play and tentatively make us more productive in the final third. Come On, you Gunners (COYG). It is our time to be very successful and fully dominate.
I keep seeing that Purple something account on X saying we are getting closer to agreeing a deal for Onana with Everton so how about a deep scouting report on him and how he compares to the issues we have in midfield 🤔
DM is for me the most critical area. Excellent link with Fofana!
When we lost and dropped points, it happened in ALL the games that Declan Rice played at DM (no6). Very frustrating and questionable right? But look at at again. Rice is absolutely amazing but defensively excellent is not enough to be a no6 in this team and at the highest level. You need to be able to be a metronome with the ball; watch Partey and Jorginho, they absolutely matched the MOST critical player profile in Pep Guardiola’s team RODRI. Remove Rodri from that City team and the pants fall off and shame jumps in! Rice will learn this aspect of the game but in Spain, they start way much earlier and go in very very deep. Pep NEVER jokes with this role. Forget KDB forget Halaand. Without the perfect No6 the rest fails to click and collapses under pressure. That’s why people know we miss Partey a lot but this is why; he’s an elite metronome. Jorginho is another. Rice is not yet close.
We matched City in all the other KPIs from other departments and even outperformed them defensively. Goals are not a problem contrary to what people think and say!
Zzzzzzzzzzzz
So do you think Guimareas can play that deeper metronome deep lying playmaker role. Because I also think as amazing as Declan rice is he doesn’t have that in his locker yet. And it affected our fluidity and the change was noticeable when Partey came back. Jorginho plays that role in attack extremely well but the lack of athleticism gets caught out on a counter attack because that position is often isolated. So who would you recommend that is both good on the ball to play that dictator role and also athletic enough to cover ground? Partey is amazing but I just can’t trust him to play every game which is something you don’t want in a title contending team.
@@oluwaseunadesina2623 XBox or Playstation?
Fofana for me is perfect and for 25million, Sesko 56million and niko Williams and Jarrod hato next year we win the league and champions league 👏 believe me
Just need to sign 6..2 good striker,get XAVI SIMONS ON LOAN and Fofana.
Next is invisibles.
😂 Like Gilberto Silva
Sell: Fabio Vieira, Thomas Partey, Emile Smith Rowe, and Zinchenko.
Buy: Fofana and Sesko period.
The only sell I would question is ESR but we already have him coming through the academy he’s (Ethan Nwaneri)
#Arteta😅
I would ❤ to see Fofana sign for Arsenal this summer.
Fofana- 20m, Sesko - 55m, Hato- 30m, Joao Neves- 110m = 225m
Jao neves exahgerated
I love George but the fuck are you on about with He's a big boy? He weighs 165lb.... Saliba for reference is 205... That's not heavy at all that's skinny... Declan rice is 176 and has a fuckin bird chest lol
In that the way he tackles is heavy footed- both players you mentioned are much more refined in their tackling technique which is broken down in detail in the video clips portion.
-George
He could be a red card machine with the speed & trickery of opponents in the Premier League?
@@TheCannonPod Forgot about this post but happy to see you replied! Looks like you've convinced me to subscribe to the patreon since if im not mistaken the video clips part is on there?
Fofana is the perfect match for arsenal Arteta should go for him.
Not a signing that screams progression! Fofana is not very sophisticated solution & will mean the squad has to adapt to his qualities & not the other way around. Technically, signing Fofana will be a compromise
Disagree with the squad adapting to his qualities, he will slot right in and any adaptation would be more from him than the squad.
I agree that it will definitely be a compromise but one with huge upside and very low downside for his price. If Partey goes we will need at least 2 midfielders because of the exit of ESR and potentially even Viera. Even if Partey doesn’t go we still need another midfielder because he’s injury prone. 20-25m for Fofana sounds like shrewd business
France has him and Kante in their midfield(they both never slide tackle and barely foul). Good luck to everyone in the euros😂. The French team should be disqualified ffs 🤦🏿♂️
With his great qualities I still don't believe he is a good fit for Arsenal, especially with the way Arteta sets up he will be a liability despite his talents.
Fofana>>> onana
I despise your use of the word cheat. It makes no sense.
Fofana no brainer
