Thanks for watching/listening and… COYG! 🤝
To listen to an informative and cogent assessment of a potential recruit, devoid of “I feel”, is so refreshing
Glad you enjoyed it!
I was just gonna say the same thing, I subscribed after listening for 5 mins
Merino will be a reincarnation of Gilberto Silva. The midfielder who simply keeps things ticking and only pops up with impact plays and perhaps goals when it is absolutely necessary.
We not getting this guy
Really? Gilbert Silva was one of my favourite midfielder. He was tough and clever and still miss him. If Merino is anything like Gilberto we are gonna enjoy watching him.
Already signed him a couple years ago for arsenal on football manager. I won the treble, your move Mikel.
Tf 😂😂😂
😂
Which Mikel?
@@arsensie0824 arteta
🤣🤣🤣
Idk why people are saying they don’t want him? He will 100% improve the squad.it’s a no brainer
What? Who are those saying they do not want him if he has qualities of Gilberto Silver? They are probably drunk.
@@user-yw3ky4ju2n agreed
A similar player to granit xhaka intelligent who has his limits physically and maybe technically but just has the mind to make up for it can operate anywhere on the midfield in terms of being comfortable in different zones defensively solid and also has that awareness to get into good positions on the attack good passer phenomenal at winning his duels I just find him so similar to xhaka
>similar player to granit xhaka
>intelligent
LOL
Literally one of the dumbest MFs to ever don the shirt. Let's hope they're nothing alike.
get him in asap we don't have to make hollywood signings all the time
You just want any signings don't you lol
@@abdullahibnmiah2986he’s not just any signing he’s a smart signing
I really thought Nacho Monreal was really underrated with us. I felt dare i say it world class? He was at his prime at Arsenal and was a force on the left side for a while.
Nick Jover + Merino - I'm listening
Who is nick jover?
@@Karg537 Set-piece coach
Always really excited to watch these videos
Glad you like them!
Really enjoy your insight. Always looking forward to know your views. Keep it up!
Much appreciated! We will keep trying to learn :)
All of this market opportunity talk. I think Arteta’s #1 attacker on his list is Isak..
Isak - Havertz - Saka
Merino - Rice - Ode
Timber - Gabriel - Saliba - White
Raya
I look at players like Mikel Merino and Youssouf Fofana as replacements for Jorginho and Partey. We need a replacement of an 8 like Ramsey / Cazorla type player, players like Enzo Millot, Mahdi Camara, Amankwah Forson, Quentin Timber, Michael Folorunsho and Gabriel Sara to name a few.
To George. I understand that Calafiori doesn't immediately solve the LHS by being an Overlapper but if we are talking of him becoming the Ben White of the LHS can he not develop into that. Ben White didn't arrive as the player who he is now, be grew into that Role and I feel certain that Calafiori can do the same as well. He has the best attributes and qualities to become that. Davies might seem like the immediate fix but he lacks of defensively. CB to Fullback is what Arteta seems to be after eg. Gvardiol
Calafiori was a left back, until two years ago when he moved to center back
Given the midfield transformation that needs to happen over the summer and January transfer windows, Merino isn't a player I'd like to see come in this summer. I think we need a more impactful/elite player to partner Rice. So we'd have Rice, (new elite player), Jorginho as the 3rd choice. With Party being sold. Then I'd like to see a new 3rd choice join in Jan giving him half a season to adapt as we phase out Jorginho.
You guys should do more of these so detailed 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
great video guys !
Would you guys say he has any similarity to Ivan Rakitic?
i love how he was considered a panic buy but now everyone wants him
Think it's maybe interesting to say if we did go through with Merino, Tierney could be involved in a swap deal potentially, but looking at it from Real Sociedad's perspective Le Normand is likely leaving, wouldn't be surprised to see Kubo leave (although he massively fell off after his great start), Zubimendi is constantly linked away so they will be reluctant to let him leave
I'm pretty sure Real Sociedad are already close to signing Sergio Gómez from Manchester City.
Arsenal fans always do this they get linked to a player and then we convince ourselves that he is what we need.
Are you ppl for real? So in all the 2years he spent at Newcastle no-one even noticed once and yall supposedly follow? He was one of Rafa Benitez best finds for Newcastle in a while. Very technical and defensively sound can play 8 or 6
good market opportunity but I dont like this transfer, I prefer Fofana more tbh
Seems to me like we’re upgrading on the Elneny role with this signing.
Lmao Merino would be starting games for us, crazy upgrade on Elneny (whom I also love)
There is no El neny role. He basically never played in his entire time here and was only here last year in a sympathy contract because he got injured so couldn't get a move.
Elneny replacement for me. In the mould of captain sideways himself, mikel Arteta. a fit partey would keep him out the side so for me, we need an upgrade on partey and then sell partey to whomever is willing to risk money on an injury prone player.
Jover's dream signing.
It would be interesting to ask a Sociedad fan who they think is the better midfielder for them, Zubimendi or Merino?
Zubimendi is much better
Zubimendi is much better and much more expensive; if attainable at all.
Is there a review of agents
I think alex should watch his time at Newcastle. The guy has a very good shot on him. Very good left foot.
Bring Merino in with Onana and I believe that ticks a lot of boxes. Both rotate for the LCM this season. Long term, Onana deputies Rice at 6, but plays with him when we face transition monsters like Madrid, Bayern, etc. Merino eventually replaces Jorginho/Elneny in the dependable backup/3rd choice role. Perfect space for a top LCM in the future.
Uhuh 😂😂😂
@@Rk-xx1sg ?
@@funisanartform both are not lcms and are most likely both better cdms then rice but rice in he 8 is most likely the way forward. I get your point it was just a lot of wishful thinking we most likely only sign one midfielder
Why doesn't George work for Arsenal?
23:30 alphonso davies?
Sounds like a upgrade on Elneny.
I love this channel mahn.
After the first couple of minutes and comparisons, I'm thinking Jorginho 2.0?
I think Rice stays on the left side of the pitch
Merino will be a good midfielder for us
We might not even spend big on anyone at all. It'll be amazed we spend more than £55m on one player this window unless it's release clause
Alex has no business calling out George's pronunciation when he himself says morino
Also the absolute plethora of things Alex pronounces wrong
Merino is a value market opportunity
Good tackler but slow, good tempo setter but crap passer… sounds like a CB woke up and decided to play as an 8
You need experience in the CM position and he knows Partey and Jorginho won't be there next year. Merino will be experienced in that position allowing us to bring in his mate Zubimendi....use your brains.
Holy crap why can no one say Meh ree noh. 🤣🤣🤣. Clive, George, Elliot, Scott...merino not Moreno 🤣
While I'm at it...Cah lah FYOH ree. Ok. Back into my studio....
Hahaha corrected it like 2 mins later... Perdono mio signori
I suspect that Merino would end up as another Fabio Viera. Ticks many boxes but gets little playing time.
Vieria doesn't tick the most important box
Viera is to lightweight for premier league
England can genuinely be the champions of Europe 2024 come the end of Sunday. Teams who start international competitions poorly have a way ending up as champions.
Just sign Bruno Guimares.... stats wise, he beats Merino in 95% of the categories.
Would prefer Dani Olmo
Emile Smith Rowe and Havertz swapping is the simplest answer to the left 8. Just bring in an out and out 6 to fulfil all boxes. I really hope we don’t sell ESR; that’s some talent you’re not going to easily get out of the market.
ESR is gone and rightly so. Can't carry passengers anymore. Barely stays fit. Doesn't show enough when he gets game time. Doesn't have the personality for an Arteta team. Best to cash in now before it's too late.
Zubimendi it Merino? I feeling merino only has aerial duels over zuba
And he's more athletic so that trumps everything
I need to know the name on the back of that Bulls jersey.
That's definitely not a jersey - it hasn't even got sleeves!
A jersey is a very specific style of shirt.
Jordan (I watched the documentary and caved)
@@TheCannonPod That was my first guess. Second would have been former Bull and former British national player Luol Deng. 3rd = Rodman?!?
Please do one on Donyell Malen
I really hope we don't get him. Would much rather have fabian ruiz. Can't last a premier league match and has no creativity. Avoid him
Merino wasn't great at Newcastle I believe fofana has been touted with Milan
I think you guys are being so hard on him. He's a duel monster. And can pass. Tell me another player who has this type of quality and experience going for a title
KOC
He's a downgrade to partey. I would stay with partey
Arsnela arent getting Him
All Hail the Almighty Algorithm ☯️🔥
For me when I look at City, closing that gap is the most FUNDAMENTAL ASPECT of the coming season. We simply can’t fail this coming season.
So my dream is to absolutely destroy City with terror and get Five Players;
1. Musiala or Olmo
2. Nico Williams
3. Merino or Ugarte
4. Calafiori
5. Lunin
Forget about a striker! Goals ARE NOT the reason we didn’t win the league. No6 is where we lost it. All the points we dropped was when we played Rice. People don’t talk about this, but you’ve seen how he plays no6 for England. You can’t come close to City with that performance over 38 games! He’ll be polished slowly. But upgrade and get a better no6.
Musiala can play no8 when we use Rice to just sit without too much responsibility to be a deep lying playmaker. Odegaard and Musiala can rotate to pick the ball from deep.
Musiala
Nico
Merino
Calafiori
Lunin.
10/10.
😂
Perhaps you can lend KSI £200M
"Inverted centre back"?! Jeeeesus fucking christ - you know that makes ZERO sense, right?
'Inverted fullback' is a misnomer (it should be inside fullback or inside back) but 'inverted centre back' is actually just dumb.
We want joe neves or bruno G other wise we r not going anywhere these 2 r world class signing who can rise arsenal massively in my opinion I would go all out joe neves he going to be world class 100m€ we can persuade benfica that’s like 80m£ it’s double his release clous is 120m€ so 100m€/80m£ is good business for his quality
Subjective as hell tbh how many games has anyone seen of neves he’s world class all of a sudden … you mean he’s up and coming or ready for a break out.
@@Rk-xx1sg I mean he he going to be one of the best dms in the world in 2 or 3 years time can defend and dictate the tempo like rodri does for a city and he is the closest rodri esque kind player we need someone like him so rice can play high up win us the ball in the final 3rd so him or Bruno G is the only 2 who can complete our 3 man midfielder that’s on the market and tick all the boxes to inherit partay position if only partey was we wouldn’t need a starting dm
@@zakiabdi8467neves is not nearly worth 80m atm lmao
Buying purely off potential when we need to buy players that are close to fully cooked now
bro we are not that rich ahahah
@@zakiabdi8467 i agree with the Bruno statement
Stop painting every player linked a fit for us just for the sake of content creation pls, Merino ia slow, he wont be good for our midfield period.
I don’t see why he wouldn’t but okay.. I don’t think any player is slower than j20.
Forgot how rapid Jorginho is!
They both said in the video that he isn't a perfect signing that'd solve everything. Both of them, moreso George, talked about the fact that it's a good signing assuming we pair it with us also signing a "maverick" or simply put a star caliber player up top to create chaos and whatnot. Seems like your forcing certain views onto them
Mid level player ... And we're aiming to win titles
Mid level player…. Some of you guys think you’re smarter than you actually are…
You view him as a 7/10 because he's coming from. Sociedad let's be honest.
Dude your better off on your own. Honestly
Who?
@@hisvisuals curly head guy. The American talks so much smack. He watches one CZcams video and proclaims to be an expert lol
@@Jmastives seems like a lot of assumption on your part. How do you know the extent of the research he's done lol. I would say that he clearly does know a thing or two about football but also I'm not sure either of them are trying to convince you they're experts
@@SS-tz3qd because of the comments on the player. I watch sociedad. He's fucking clueless. He spouted the same guff about Calafiori
@@Jmastives so what is he wrong about specifically? About him and Calafiori. How much do you watch Sociadad and Bologna
