City also have another very easy run in from March to May. They won't lose a game in that timespan

Tough start, but I like getting those away trips out of the way early.

And being done with the North London derby and Man City by early February is nice too

I wonder if we'll have everyone back for those early games or if some of the players involved in summer tournaments will get an extended break

Brutal first 6 and the last 6 are not easy either. Citys first 6 are not weak but the end is a cake walk.

Given all the BS that City has put the league through with the "115" you would think there would be a vested interest in giving them the hardest start and finish to the season as possible.

Tierney just tore his hamstring while playing for Scotland. He's not being sold this summer

At this rate just give him another shot when he's healthy. We've been evolving away from the Zinchenko experiment at LB anyways.

Not gonna happen. Arteta doesn't trust his play or fitness.

We definitely shouldn't trust his fitness. Time to move on.

You can't sell him right now either though. That looked like a serious hamstring injury. He's probably done through the start of the season. He's gonna be in that Cedric role this year. He'll only have 1 year on his contract next summer

Martinelli apparently got hurt in Brazil training yesterday as well and Saliba also apparently has a minor ankle issue

Yeah, we probably can't sell Tierney for anything. I'm not saying give him the weekly starting job and depend on him. But let him rotate in some when he's healthy and see if something works.

Zinny had a great game today

Gallagher may be an upgrade as a situational squadie for us but I dont see him fitting in as a L8 starter.

I wonder if Southgate is wondering if he should have put Benny Blanco on the team.

Not sure Benny gives him the option anymore but will be interesting to see if the next coach pulls him back into the fold

Sounds like we've officially activated Raya's clause for him to join us.

I always thought it was an obligation after like 20 starts or something like that.

Heard that Smith-Rowe wants to stay, which is surprising. I have to imagine that means Arteta has convinced him he's going to start playing again.

Spanish media claiming that there will be an obligation to buy. Supposedly Sevilla want to pay 8m and Arsenal are pushing for 12m+

Good for Sambi to have pulled things together well enough to have a good club like Sevilla after him. I know they had a tough La Liga year but good club still

Sounds like we backed off the obligation a bit. Current deal looks to be a loan with an option to buy and the option becomes an obligation if certain conditions are triggered. Not heard anything about specifics but considering it is a loan to start it won't do much to help FFP/PSR this summer.

I don't know the credibility of this guy but I have been seeing links to Calafiori for a couple weeks now. He had looked destined for a move to Juve but Bologna don't want to sell to them and we have a solid relationship with them from previous deals. Supposedly Jorge has been pushing us to make a move for him. Would likely mean that Kiwior or OZ are moved.

Arteta must be cooking down in Marbella. I know he's apparently got 6-10 of out players in basically a mini-camp/vacation there. (ESR, Nketiah, Nelson, Vieira, Timber, White) and apparently Partey, Odegaard and Jesus are joining them.

Romano saying Bologna want 50m.

Very interesting that guys rumored to be heading out are putting in extra work while on vacation.

ESR - supposedly Fulham have made him their #1 priority
Eddie - rumored interest from Palace, Fulham, West Ham & Brighton
Nelson - rumored interest from Palace & Brighton. seems the least likely to leave of our potential HG outgoings.
Vieira - Porto want him back but it would have to be on loan or a swap deal
Partey - PIF teams sniffing around again. claims that they are offering a high enough salary to convince him to leave now.

That's because they owe Basel a 40% sell-on for anything over 6m. I'm wondering how a player swap would impact the sell-on? could we send them Kiwior + 5-10m? They would get a replacement defender and potentially avoid sending a bunch of cash to Basel.

Also, we spent more on White (euro vs GBP) and from what I've seen Calafiori looks like he could be a left-footed White. If we sell Kiwior we would also be asking 40m.
