  • Wonder if Kai gets his first start against United?

    think he'll play Gyokeres tomorrow (who is better in away games where he has fractionally more space) and then drop him agianst United. Kai's technical ability is clearly being missed against low blocks.

    First start since Manchester United.

    Could happen. Though we seem to want to give him as much time as possible (to recover).
    "Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.

    "But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."

      Pretty sure that Arteta will want him starting as soon as he is ready. You can understand the caution.

        Dunno. He's been ready for weeks.

          There must be a reason why they are managing his minutes so carefully. He has been out for a long time.

            Perhaps it's because we signed a certain someone in the Summer who would be perfectly capable of holding up an end, awaiting Kai's patient, leisurely return and it seems to be working rather well so there's no hurry.

            Please don't tell Rich I said that.

              People seem to think that Saka and Gyokeres have fallen out.

              The obvious solution is to sell Saka

                Genuinely though - what's the argument against playing Harriman-Anous? He looks a much better fit for us in the minutes I've seen. Nice range of passing. Good runs. Lovely touch.

                  Right. At least he might be worth a few quid, unlike that other clown.

                    If Madrid came and slapped 100million on the table for Saka I think we'd have to consider it...

                        Arda Guler would be one option. Presumably the scouting department have others.

                        Or Nwaneri if we are looking at internal solutions.

                          Saka, is one of the best RW in World football. Hence he's about to get a 5 year extension.

                            I wouldn't take 100 million for him. 150, maybe
                            ...

                              I just wouldn't sell him.
