I'm not an expert on loans, but bearing in mind there appears to be some questionable decisions taken with long term contracts to avoid FFP issues , why would it be questionable to loan from Saudi clubs to NCL apart from the obvious and what could the premier league or FIFA actually do about it?.

What even is their first XI with him and presumably Rice? Is he replacing (or a backup to) Jesus? Is he a backup to Martinelli and Saka? Or do they have a way of starting all of Jesus, Saka, Martinelli, Havertz, and Odegaard? Havertz will rotate with Odegaard I reckon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 As Arteta is a Pep clone, maybe it's a 3-2-4-1: White - Saliba - Gabriel Rice - Zinchenko Saka - Odegaard - Havertz - Martinelli Jesus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toon25 Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Genuinely reckon Bernardo is one of the best players at the mo. Absolutely pissing his car££r away going to Saudi. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Interesting to see Bernardo, Gundogan and Walker looking at new challenges after achieving all they can at City. You'd imagine it makes City far more active in the transfer market than previously expected. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Wonder if training under Pep is intense as fuck , which might make players more open to leave, especially after they've just won the treble? Not worth it sticking around, working thwt hard when youve just completed club football, basically Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWill>Death Row Yeah probably fair. Get the impression he's mainly a 10 which we dont play as well. With less ability than Odegaard to play deeper. And lacking the turnover and carrying ability of Willock. He's classy af, though. If he can stay fit and someone can get a tune out of him he'll be decent.

He could do with getting out of Arsenal though albeit I couldn’t say where’d suit. Feels like he’s not appropriate for Europa League clubs but too good for Fulham and similar.

Or Brighton, could do well there. Theyve probably got options sorted for the next 3-5 years though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
