I feel that it will not be a healthy situation for the club if he stays around for another season without signing a new contract.

JimJams Posted 17 July 2022 Share Posted 17 July 2022 Would be a decent swap deal that. ESR is Maddison-Lite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desertfox2 Posted 17 July 2022 Share Posted 17 July 2022 1 hour ago, FoxinNotts said: Right, I don’t for one minute think we’ll get him, or that we’re even in for him. But…. If we off loaded, Choudhury, Soumare and Perez, and only bought in Pepe and kept everyone else, we would have a top seven competitive squad. Just goes to show, despite all the drama and negativity around us at the moment, we are actually only a decent right winger away from a superb squad, imo I'd say him, a CB and Lookman as cover and we would be very competitive especially without Europe. We need those players you mentioned gone and maybe a couple extra out. We aren't a million miles away but the concern at the moment is the lack of time and we are weaker without Lookman in the squad, plus we don't need any negativity.

But as he plays for an Entitled Six club, he has more England caps than the real thing. Edited 18 July 2022 by Steve Earle typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Stadt Posted 18 July 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 18 July 2022 He's a good player and we'd do well to land him. He's started 67 games for Arsenal where he's scored 27 and set 21 up 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moore_94 Posted 18 July 2022 Share Posted 18 July 2022 (edited) As a player I would be kinda happy with us having him, but it is the financial side that puts me off His stats for Arsenal aren’t actually that bad in his time there, overall his stats come out pretty similar to Barnes 19/20 42 appearances - 29 starts - 2,717 mins - 30.2 90s 8 goals and 10 assists Goal contribution every 151 mins 20/21 47 appearances - 30 starts - 2,929 minutes - 32.5 90s 16 goals and 5 assists Goal contribution every 139 mins 21/22 23 appearances - 8 starts - 951 mins - 10.6 90s 3 goals and 6 assists Goal contribution every 106 mins Total 112 appearances - 67 starts - 6,597 mins - 73.3 90s 27 goals and 21 assists Goal contribution every 137 mins Edited 18 July 2022 by moore_94 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Ric Flair Posted 18 July 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 18 July 2022 I'd love Pepe here on loan, I'm looking through what left footed right wingers are possibly available and he's about as good as there are out there if we want a short term fix. Still absolutely fuming Omari Hutchinson is going to Chelsea, a brainless move. I'd honestly have done a straight swap him for Tielemans. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RowlattsFox Posted 22 August 2022 Share Posted 22 August 2022 At this stage I'd take him but it would have to be on loan. Problem with that being if he is successful we get no real long term benefit because he will sign for someone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
