Arsenal are struggling to score goals this season and one way to fix that problem is to sign a striker. Also, Bukayo Saka seems to be teetering on the brink of injury and with Gabriel Martinelli underperforming as well, a new versatile winger could be a sensible transfer.
JJ Bull and Jon Mackenzie discuss some options that could improve Arteta’s side this January and beyond.

RIP Tifo IRL, u will be missed 🙏🏼
I just saw the post from 2 days ago explaining the channel rename from Tifo IRL to The Athletic FC. As long as the tone doesn’t change too much… keep it fun and fast… it seems ok.
They can never make another video about clubs or players selling out 😅
Deeply.
@@chrisgarty i agree as long as the tone doesn't change it should be fine but if we look at the track record of rebranded channels i gotta say, it's not looking good man...
@@AdamOBrien29what?
Sending TIFO to The Athletic was not a sensible transfer. RIP
The athletic is what made tifo financially viable, overall the atheletic has been great let's not overreact over a name change.
@@Benito264appreciate that but the athletic's content is dry and boring. I try to like it but it just takes all the fun out of football.
The tifo podcasts and content generally was great and got me through lockdown. Now they feel a lot less personable.
It's a shame that the athletic invested in them just to convert it to the athletic.
I'm surprised to see the name change, it doesn't change much but confirms what I had been thinking that tifo seems a lot more like the athletic than usual.
Still enjoy the content but not as much as 2020/2021 era, hope the lads have done well though they put a lot of work in.
Even the thumbnails are so dry. And no more hand drawn graphics? Clearly not bothered about the existing audience and why they're there
@@DeanRTaylor”got me through lockdown” can we stop with this it’s pathetic
@@F1Sam64this is wasn’t the channel with the Hand drawn stuff that’s was their other channell
Still Tifo IRL in all our hearts, never, The Athletic FC
why change the name?
@@mattimattis Because they have been part of the athletic for a while now.
Missed the old Sangare era when tifo actually suggested mostly unknown sensible gems for these kind of videos
Glad someone said it, loved the previous iteration of sensible transfers as it was easier to digest and more informative at the same time. Suggestions feel a lot more lazy these days
Facts, I miss this types of videos, that’s what I fell in love with
"sensible transfers" when they're putting players like osihmen and frankie de jong when arsenal probably at best only have a budget of 50m going into this transfer window is hilarious 😂
Honestly, I was thinking about this, and it might just be that Football has actually changed since then.
The top clubs have so much money that they basically don't need to search the depths for signings, they'll all play for well known clubs. additionally, because their players are so expensive they can only sell to each other. Arsenal don't need to sign Sangare, Forest have the money to do so instead.
It might be more interesting if they made videos for smaller clubs, but we all know the incentives aren't there to do that.
God yes, those where the times. I startet a new FM save every time one of those videos came out! :D
Look how they massacred my boy Tifo…
Tifo turned into Fredo
They took everyone's favourite content on the channel, stripped it of any soul by removing the scripts, colour, and graphics, leaving behind this bland, dull, monotonously unformatted carcass of a podcast. *Why?*
One would say "They made him an offer he could not refuse"
Always felt that when the Tifo lads stopped the podcast it was the start of the end; completely understand why they wanted to move in a different direction after doing the podcast for so long, but even then I knew it was going to change everything
Alex leaving was the start of the end tbh
@@otto_jkboy do I miss Alex. Joe, jj, and Alex on the tifo football show was world class content, personalities perfectly balanced eachother out.
@@SC-bc6tz the prime period definitely was the time after JJ came but before Alex left
Tifo is no longer IRL, but it will be forever IOH, in our hearts 😢
lol
Hahaha clever girl
I miss Tifo already
it was UmaXit before Tifo
Jon: Arsenal have no money to spend due to FFP
Also Jon: Arsenal should buy Solanke and Pedro Neto two of the likely most over-valued players in the Premier League right now
Such lazy suggestions
Also Victor oshimen - one of the most sought after strikers last season, and frankie de jong who barcelona arent going to let go of for small money.
It’s like when you’re managing a league two side in football manager and the scouts keep recommending you sign Haaland or Musiala
Still cheaper than De Jong 😂
Why rebrand such a perfectly good show? R.I.P Tifo IRL😢 You will be missed💔 These corporate companies man smh🤦🏾♂️
pin this comment fellas
Who cares what the name of the show is. People are so afraid of any change lol.
@@joostverra9130 it makes it very clear that Tifo is now nothing but an ad platform for The Athletic. The new name is generic and boring. I think I will unsubscribe at this point.
@@maciejbala477 i mean we like the name tifo because of what we associate it with, not because the name is great
@@joostverra9130 that's the point. What Tifo used to mean has been almost entirely stripped except from the little bits of JJ's personality and this is the second to last nail in the coffin with the last being if JJ leaves or gets sacked. Changing the name is emblematic of all the changes that have had a negative effect on the channel like the removal of the podcast , Alex leaving, sensible transfers becoming about the mainstream instead of niche key picks. They used to find guys like Sangare and do videos for more than the 2 clubs they've managed so far.
Sometimes I listen to the old tifo podcast episodes again despite having no recollection of the games they’re discussing, mostly for the valuable and illuminating talk of frogs and goblins
Those were the golden times! Man, why all the good things must come to an end...? 😢 Looks like commercial success ruins everything. Loved the podcast so much.
I didn't listen to these guys in the past.. why is everyone saying it's dead? They seem okay now.
@@KiePatty91 check out any one of the tifo football podcast episodes from the 22/23 season that has Joe’s face in the thumbnail and you’ll understand very quickly. Their shenanigans were unmatched
The show stopped featuring the three core members Joe, Seb and Alex. The show maintained most its essence even after Alex left and became replaced by JJ Bull. Yet, eventually it became the Jon Mackenzie show
I just wanted to thank John for his out of possession obsession. I am a coach and I have been working on it with my players over the last season. At the beginning of last season I could play passes through the team easily because their pressing and marking was so poor but over the last couple scrimmages I have played with them almost a year later I am getting pressed and my passing options are being covered so well, this was a credit to John for all the out of possession principles he explained that I was then able to explain/implement with my team. Thank you goblin king!
Maybe you should use JJ and Jon as the video thumbnail. I don’t think a lot of people will click on the video if they think it’s a generic video from the athletic.
we did
@@jbri1 perhaps it’s just me but it currently shows as an image of arteta with the words “Sensible Transfers” next to him
My first thought when i see The Athletic FC on my youtube subscription is "why tf would i subscribe to athletic?" and i even thought someone hacking my account lmao. Then i clicked the accound and saw its actually tifo irl, just sad times
Arsenals biggest miss this season is Timber . The powerful runs into midfield he makes from defence . Would also also allow Zinchenko to play cdm and left back at home against weaker sides
He’s supposed to be back in February. So hopefully we will see
JJ and Jon. Just the best. “Look at this pass.” “That’s a good pass.”
'ate the athletic, luv me tifo, simple as
RIP Tifo, just another corporate channel now
Genuinely scrolled right past the thumbnail because it looked like any athletic video… rip tifo irl
I think you guys overlooked Pedro Neto's terrible injury history. He has been out for 2-6 months in the last 3 seasons and hasn't managed more than 1000' a season since 20/21.
Suggestion of Solanke for Arsenal is absolutely nuts. He's done nothing of note for years, he has one hot streak and they are saying he's a complete package???
Last two seasons, played 33/33, scored 3 and 6.
Crazy
The Athletic: "leave your comments below because engagement"
All Comments: "You killed Tifo"
Not sure I've liked the choices of teams for sensible transfers as both Arsenal and Manchester United haven't got money to spend for this window. Personally I'd prefer focus on teams in an interesting position to build on or improve upon IN January, or with money to spend. Surely if the focus for these teams is the summer transfer window maybe save it for then.
"What else is there"
"Reiss Nelson"
"And there in lies our problem."
Reiss Nelson catching strays like he's the animal warden 😂
Honestly, playing Jesus on the right and giving Saka some rest would be a great experiment. Then play Trossard through the middle and give Nketiah and Havertz time to gain confidence while Trossard can really give us the forward momentum we need
Right!!
I was sitting here listening to this going...
Their most sensible transfer up top = Trossard! 😂😂
Or Vieira with ESR in the middle
@@tdtm82 Vieira is dogwater
Watch clips of G Jesus playing RW, no need to buy a backup for Saka
@@PioVisaya Vieira as backup
Omg, they actually killed it
The only thing I'm getting out of these Sensible transfers is that Barcelona has some really good players.
I wonder if people in The Athletic have any idea of what they are doing.
Like, you have a passionate fanbase, why the hell would you upset them by changing what was once loved?
Another point to be made on the end of Tifo IRL - where is Joe? No mention of him in the community post. In fact, we havent seen him for a few months since he did that video with Jon and kept interrupting him which led to some losers in the comments complaining about him because they wanted to focus on the analysis. The silliness broke up the serious analysis and kept most peoples attention span! Now i struggle to watch a whole video the whole way through, its only JJ who tries to keep it fun now.
First the Irish guy and now tifo irl. My boys
Irish guy has his own channel now
@@emilb6439 yea I know but he was on hitc before then switched
@@emilb6439What's his name?
Watching Tifo IRL for laughs and HITC Sport ft Irish Guy for the deep, educational football knowledge. Those were the days ❤
@@benpeter8635 it’s just called the Irish guy
Surprised that there was no mention of full backs considering how thin arsenal are there. Getting a good fullback could even fix arsenals buildup issues as it could allow them to push zinchenko to midfield without being a defensive liability.
Just the main area of injuries. Tomi and Ben at Rb, Zini timber kiwior and tomi at Lb
@@ACE360x At this point one starts to accept that Tomiyasu will never be more than a bit-part player, Ben White is simply not good enough for a team with aspirations of winning trophies, same with Zinchenko, same with Kiwior. That leaves one suitable, functional option - Timber - who even themself is not PL proven.
Wasn't the White - Saka partnership lethal for the first half of last season?
I think Brooke Norton-Cuffy should get a fair chance. Really starting to feel like Arsenal hate their own academy...
@@RanjanManohar Yeah Finn Garrin-Dias should get a run too, he has all the tools to solve the penetration problems.
It does feel like the tifo podcast was stopped as it was covering the same ground as other athletic podcasts. It was the heart of the channel and the content hadn't been the same since
suggesting someone who is a fixed starter at Barcelona would move to Arsenal is crazy
Ok im sorry but can you guys also scout somebody that hasnt played for epl or isnt just a trendy player?
No , since Alex left that’s not a thing they do anymore
Spending 65m on Havertz enabling Chelsea to have more spending power, while Havertz also hampers Arsenals attacking midfield, only for Arsenal to need to spend more to fix said midfield is the stuff of nightmares
Arteta masterclass
My biggest gripe, 4 years in PL but he's still underperforming & halfway through the season, Arteta doesn't want to let go of his pet project.
@@archaicraptureHavertz isnt the issue
he joins a team and immediately that team has to tinker their tactics to somehow fit him in,obvious talent but a crazy signing by arteta who just fell short last year so shud have just reinforced what he had and played the same way not sign players who make u try and fix what isnt broken,also top teams need two players for every position so letting keiran tierrney go was just crazy as he wud be there best left back when fit and an option at CB
Tifo IRL, I'll always remember your Euro 2020 daily podcast during lockdown with Joe, Alex, JJ and Seb 😭💔
Kubo could be a nice option tho and could be a good Saka alternative if his injured or tired. Also both of them would push each other to perform at their max. I also think Kubo could play 2-3 position in our system.
I think the Athletic will treat Tifo better then Sky did FD & EFD. Glad to see JJ and Jon on here being themselves and making long informative videos.
Dont cry because it's over, smile bc we're all subscribed to the athletic. Joe must be so proud
🤣🤣
What about Palacios from Bayer Leverkusen?
As an elder millennial I also love the idea of Benzema finally coming to Arsenal :D
Ageing ex-star on big money with a long contract as he declines? Arsenal would never...
Football is taken very seriously by people resulting in lots of arguing, shouting, toxic masculinity. What is needed is outright silliness without compromising on thorough analysis. This is what Tifo did brilliantly. In its attempt to be more upmarket, please don’t lose its soul.
This 🎉🎉
The way back was so shocked that even the thumbnail was different and wondering why the athletic are just stealing TIFO IRLs video idea
RIP TIFO
Hale end is producing some great midfielders now. Lewis-Skelly as 6 and Nwaneri as 8/10. Great ball progressers! And press resistant!
If only Arteta would play an academy product. We only have prem and ucl games now so seems unlikely
@@ACE360x nwaneri is like 15 or 16yo bruh
Dude they are like 16, not every young midfielder in the academy is a Fabregas. If they were good enough to play for the first team at that age they would be
Thanks for inviting us to add suggestions. I’d like to suggest that Arsenal use Martin Odegaard - their best passer but not the most clinical - in a deeper progressive role to unpick defences. Fabio Vieira, Emile Smtih-Rowe and Kai Havertz are all capable of playing the more dynamic advanced midfield role.
I also suggest that, having upset people with the name change, The Athletic FC keeps everything else the same!
The real problem here is that Arsenal spent big on Raya, Havertz and Timber, none of whom were for real positions of need. Raya is an improvement over Ramsdale but not a £40m improvement, Havertz was an overspend and doesn't seem to have solved any problems. Timber will be excellent I expect but their existed central defence partnership was already a point of strength. Given FFP rules it becomes much more important to spend efficiently and Arsenal just didn't in the summer.
Timber was a good signing. Having to play holding cos then the title. Havertz on the other hand, has been a big downgrade compared to xhaka in midfield and for a huge amount of money
Timber is absolutely a position of need. He'd have been playing instead of Zinchenko in that stretch where he was costing us games (I love Zinny btw think he's just out of form). I think Timber would have instantly become a fixture in the team had it not been for the injury
This is like watching your favourite indie artist become a massive pop star 😭. Congrats on the growth but goddam just want the UMAXITfootball days back
🌚 Arteta doesn't clearly trust the back up for Saka
There's surely back up for the wingers in Trossard and Nelson
But Arteta can't seem to bench Martinelli and Saka or take them off early
He always take martinelli off lmao
Wait isnt this the second time they have killed a Tifo channel
Yeah the “The Athletic” channel was the tifo podcast channel (there are still podcasts from pre 2020 on there I think)
I disagree on De Jong being sensible simply because if he was for sale he won't go to Arsenal because literally every top club in the world would be in for him.
Arsenal would be behind City, Bayern, PSG, Liverpool, Juve, Inter maybe even United/Chelsea if they (A) have a bad season this year.
I would question both the Neto and Osimhen suggestions. Osimhen has been pretty bad this season, stats may be decent but if you've watched him, you'll know he's missed some quite clear chances. Which wouldn't help our goal scoring issues that we currently have. I also think for a 25 year old, he's still very raw, good at hold up play and decent ball control but still a bit raw.
Neto's injury history concerns me, as someone who is supposed to be a backup for Saka, ideally that person would be reliable. Arsenal have enough injury prone players I don't think we should add Neto into the mix.
My favorite picks are;
Solanke or Toney
Torres
De Jong
12:55 Havertz literally won us like 4 games: City, Brentford, Brighton, played a big part Luton. He’s not a final passer, but he obviously has runs in the box to receive and score in him
I miss when sensible transfers actually brings up relatively unknown names from other leagues. Most recent videos feel lazier than before
Yeah they just look up prem players on sofifa it feels like.
Saka replacement will not only depend on the quality of the player but also on his sync with Odegaard and Ben White. Quite simply, a Saka replacement will come along with some huge change in Arteta's tactics and might not really happen that easily.
They slaughtered my Tifo
Frimpong would be the best option. Saka could come inside all the time so Frimpong can make the overlap. Furthermore with a typical no.9 like Evan Ferguson, or even Solanke they would score from those situations very frequently,
I don't think Frimpong is necessary. Brooke Norton-Cuffy can do the same thing. He should be given a chance
Zhegrova is a good shout for the right winger position. He has been doing wonders in Lille and has the highest amount of dribbles in the top 5 leagues
How much do you think they'll want for him?
@@fgtrhwu2 with the trajectory the market for players that have been almost unknown a year ago, I would say 60mil+
Even though of course I think that would be too much. Since Arsenal paid so much for Pepe a couple of years ago, they could demand even 80mil£ or more
@@MrGrgiZg08 Then I doubt any move for him will happen now. Was thinking someone like Guirassy with that 15m release clause is possible
@@fgtrhwu2 that would be amazing
TIFO IRL died months ago when they killed the podcast and all the funny wacky non football stuff was gradually removed from the videos. I still love JJ Bull but it seems he has to be more reserved now, I like Jon but I feel he lacks a sense of humour, and football is a game not anything to be super serious about. I see less and less of Joe Bovine, Seb is gone (though, he reappeared on the Athlletic's podcast so maybe he'll return), Alex is gone ... Tom Worville escape the scattergram and Mark Carey rarely shows up. I feel The Athletic FC is just going to be Tifo IRL gone corporate.
I loved you guys. RIP.
Athletics - First they robbed the Tifo Podcast Channel to the The Athletic UK channel and now The Athletic Football Podcast Channel. And now they have stolen the Tifo IRL also.
I sincerely believe that Athletic people have always been jealous of Tifo's success and just grab and rebrand whatever they can, not knowing what makes Tifo great. It is the "Humour and Magical Chemistry" between its presenters used to have. Yes, I am saying used here because Joe "Bovine" Devine is a legend and an exceptional presenter of Football content besides his epic voice. I miss him.
Vehemently disagree. Great voice. Distinctly mediocre commentary with pretty unfunny jokes that were often low hanging fruit
Where is Joe Devine?
As is your right buddy, Agree to disagree.@@Chrisosch
@@ChrisoschNo his commentary was _divine_
What does Joe devine do now
I can't help but feel that these are all "sensible" in terms of the profile of player - but can't see any of these being affordable unless we did a David Raya type loan deal.
I feel like I'm the only one who is quite happy with Reiss Nelson as a backup for Saka. Definitely want a world class 9 though, even if that's the last signing we make this year. A new LB wouldn't hurt too (although I'd be stoked if they just brought Tierney back).
The problem is that arteta never plays Reiss. So saka is never rotated unless it’s a carabao cup match.
Saka has played 8974 minutes in the past three seasons
No wonder he missed the pen for us 😭
Eze is 100% percent a player Arsenal should go for. He spent many years at Arsenal's academy too. I watched him play for England U21 for many years and he was always a quality player.
Nah. A midfield 3 with Eze and Ødegaard will be defensively a shamles.
Think he'd be a much better shout as being both Ødegaard and Saka's rotation player.
And getting a solid 8 instead.
Missed the animated ones of these big time
I’ve lost so much respect for the athletic with the way they’ve handled Tifo the past while. I know the lads wanted to step back themselves but the transition could have been handled better.
Jon nailing his every shouts yet again what a man
These two guys look familiar...
Arteta's unwillingness to take Saka off hurts their ability to recruit a back up. No young winger wants to sit on the bench when the need game time.
Nelson is doing so at the moment
Thumbnail should give a tifo irl vibe to attract views. almost scrolled past
Love this series, top work chaps!
Move Ø to lcm, play ESR at rcm. Get KT back at lb. Buy Kubo or Oyarzabal at lw. Boniface up top (just too perfect fit).
Problem solved and FFP happy solution 👌
JJ with career mode signings, while Jon keeps it realistic
Guys the sensible transfer segment used to be options where attributes, feasibility and price were included. Suggesting FdJ and Osimhen, i mean, come on
Mikel played Jesus on the right against City on the right when Saka was injured and he was brilliant
Agreed, but Jesus doesn't want to play on the wing, he wants to play primarity as a striker. It's part of the reason he left City
@@Ssweis23 yea, but either way his playing time will be reduced next season if we bring in a striker which is the primary reason he left city. Although, if he could stay fit it would be better for him
Why is it not tifo irl anymore
Don't really care about the name change as long as the videos are still fun!
I, for one, welcome our new Athletic overlords
Aston Villa have been struggling to score goals over the last couple of months. How can they fix it?
Can we make The Athletic see this? As an Arsenal fan, these are my SENSIBLE transfers:
ST: Taiwo Awoniyi: Tall, strong, pretty young, reliable, proven, stays central, dominant in the box, and can create chances by linking up with wingers.
LB: Ferland Mendy: RM looking to move him on, very rapid, tall, in his prime, SO SKILFUL, world-class defender, and can go forward. Could become the next Ashely Cole or like Arsenal's Kyle Walker
RW: (This would have been the Ghanaian Messi, Mohammed Kudus) Alejandro Garnacho: I think this could be viable, especially in Man U's FFP situation. Right or Left. You could also go for Tella, Pelestri, or Bakayoko. On the more permanent side, Rodrygo could compete and maybe overtake Martinelli.
CM: A lot of options here, Paulinia, Onana, and Curtis Jones, all good options. Jobe Bellingham is also there but not a starter yet.
RB: Jeremy Frimpong: How do you solve your RB depth and your RW problem? Someone who can play both. Fast, very good going forward and coukd provide a great, quick overlap for Saka and can invert. The overlapping pace of Frimpong and Mendy would give us the league EASILY.
Sensible transfers I remember was tifo football, not IRL. THE Joe Devine narrated and sketched version. With real insight into players we had not heard of. Alex Stewart I expect made a major contribution then. I like JJBull and Jon McKenzie but this sensible transfers was really lazy. They just mentioned the top names rumoured. We wait a year for a new sensible transfers and then get regurgitated tittle-tattle. You can do better.
I think the solution would be contingent on wether Arsenal could sign Osimhen or not. It'd be impossible (probably) to sign all of Osimhen, FDJ, and either Eze or Neto, let alone anyone beyond that
I highly doubt they could sign both Osimhen and De Jong, not even talking about the others.
Tifo, RIP my sweet Prince.
My suggestion for Arsenal: 3-4-1-2
GK: Raya
RCB: Saliba | White/Timber
CB: Gabriel | Saliba
LCB: Kiwior | Gabriel
RW: White | Tomiyasu/Timber
RCM: Odegaard | Vieira
LCM: Rice | Zinchenko
LW: Timber | Kiwior/Tomiyasu
CAM: Havertz | Smith Rowe
RF: Saka | Jesus
LF: Martinelli | Trossard
Timber and White to invert on either flank. with a back three to help maintain defensive structure during these forward forays.
For this, I would like to see Arsenal make a move for Joao Cancelo, who doesn't seem to be wanted over at Man City. Him and Timber are both capable of playing on both flanks, which cause problems for the opposition should they switch mid-match. White would then return to being the designated RCB in my back three, though this does relegate either Kiwior or Gabriel to the bench.
Odegaard would play in a deeper position to help unpick defences with his passing and vision, while Havertz operates as the raumdeuter with his height and skills. He may not have the best finishing, but having two forwards around him to play off to should help alleviate the goalscoring burden.
Damn i remember the rebranding to tifo etc. But it's an organic evolution
Barcelona sensible transfers could be interesting due to financial restrictions
FDJ is the player I want the most. Eze high up my radar. FDJ-Eze/Neto and Schlotterbeck could mean we don’t even need a ST since Havertz can backup ST.
Worse two suggestions for a striker transfer I’ve heard for the Arsenal…. Benzema !!! They start by talking FSP restrictions and then suggest buying a player that’s one of the highest paid players in world football !
Less we forget the other suggested nugget to end Arsenal goal scoring issues … Dominic solanke. The guy couldn’t score in a brothel for the last five yrs then has a decent few months and he’s meant to be the chosen one to win the EPL and a CL title for. The Arsenal ! Eddie is better then DS and Benzema had his chance to join and he didn’t so sorry not for me even if we could afford him which we can’t .
No CB backup? Even if a case for an addition can be made, White, Tomi, Timber, Kiwior at least deserve a mention!
I feel like some of these aren’t sensible transfers. No way is Arsenal affording Oshimen, De Jong, Frimpong or de Ligt
Can Trossard and Jesus not play on the right? Especially if you get a striker that is good cover (2 players for 3 spots). Able to rotate enough to keep everyone happy
Great video guys
They have an Eze. He’s called Smith Rowe. He’s cheap cos he’s on the wage bill and he literally tore the league up when he had game time and confidence.
He was in the same chat as Saka pre injury. He’s incredible running at people, has a decent goal scoring touch and loves to grab a game and go.
He’s maybe slightly better on the transition than against a low blow at the moment but just like Havertz has been given time, I think he should be.
Deja vu...I remember Edu talking about rebalancing the team in the All or Nothing documentary. Yet we've ended up with 4 players at right back again? All that money spent and there is still no balance?
Rip Tifo
The Athletic FC is to Tifo IRL as MK Dons are to Wimbledon.
Surely left back would be a concern for Arsenal. Zinchenko offers a lot with possession and build up down that side but in some of their tougher games that left side hes exposed. Kiwior does not look at the level and Tomiyasu does okay but again is not the most reliable. Would think they would be after a different profile at left back
rip tifo, i'll never forget you
Could Serge Gnabry be a decent option for the second rw position?
6:05 very true they need a huge presence in the field
Jj is so flashy 💸💸💸 so cool !
Ferran and Osimhen 🎉
benzema on a 6 month loan would be perfect. isak would be also be a good option in the summer, and we were linked with him for a while before he joined newcastle. de jong, eze and paqueta would all be good signings for that left 8 role too
Benzema on loan isn’t really realistic. He’s on INSANE wages out in Saudi
@@squanchysquanch1840 if he’s not happy there he’d most likely be willing to lower his wage demands. i think arsenal and edu should try their hardest to get him as he’s the best striker you can possibly get in this window, and he might be tempted by a london club and playing in the PL/UCL
I think Pedro Neto would be an amazing fit for Liverpool, too. I think he’s much more suited to Liverpool’s current style of play in comparison to Cody Gakpo, even though I do really like Cody. I still think the better balance and agility that Neto has, with his left footedness would suit us really well
