      Some times starts lie, actually when you look at the this guy play, he is good but not party's level, we need someone who is even better than party

    12. @DeeDeeDanone on

      Bruno Guimaraes is unequivocally the player that improves Arsenals midfield onto the next level. A big brute is not what Arsenals style is about.

    13. @mjjulius2158 on

      To be honest I will be so disappointed if we sigh onana he is not even close to paulinio of fulham, yet he is more cheaper than onana, I hate arsenal buying average players costly then after few years straggle to sell,

    18. @abhaywarrier3827 on

      I agree with the Rice 8 being an issue but if Onana signs, he's only going to be an option, not a sure starter. Imo Rice and Odegaard will be the only sure starters in the midfield while the 3rd spot will be dependent on different games. Onana, Vieira, Jorginho, Havertz will all be options to play midfield depending on games and gamestate. Also if Rice gets injured, we don't have anyone else with the same physical profile and we'll lose our physical edge in midfield. Onana is perfect to cover that

    19. @jeromekeith9775 on

      Onana. 22yrold. Can play as a 6 or 8. Fits the profile of a Replacement for Partey and a long standing physical partner for Rice w/ Prem XP
      Idm Onana or Fofana.
      But one of them is needed.

    26. @jsncuckler on

      Rice is not a 8 he’s a CB that has been made a 6 that’s why his passing is safe and he’s good at switching the attack but doesn’t see the final ball. He’s also great at taking space on the dribble but he lacks attacking creativity. Let him be the 6 bring in a more creative 8 or 10 and move Odegaard to the left 8 just don’t try to make Rice a 8 we need more attacking threat.

    27. @jsncuckler on

      Other options would be Timber at RB and White sit with Rice
      Could use Zinchenko in the 8 progresses the ball well and works hard on defense (not the greatest defender) but will put in that shift. Especially with Rice behind

    29. @darionjoubert5014 on

      James pls do a video on Jaoa Neves, all the qualities u say we need and lack he has, he breaks down play, is good carrying the ball forward, is creative and can score goals, he fits arsenal's style, is young and if we can pay 100mil for Declan then why can't we pay over 100 for him…..thanks love your content!

    31. @joe256 on

      James, if you can see and respond to this, it would be great.

      1. What gave you the impression that Arteta 's ultimate vision is to have 2 10s with Odegaard +1?
      2. Rice is currently our best ball carrier in the team and not our best passer. Why would you put someone like that at the base of midfield where he has the entire pitch opening up to him?
      1(b). Don't you think it's a loose – loose for the team to have Rice at 6? He's our best ball carrier. You'd be taking that away from the team while also using up a position that would be better filled by a passer.

      3. Many times, I've made comments that have unfortunately not been seen by you ( I guess) about this apparent "striker priority". How could you look at our midfield and want us to spend 100m on a striker? We need Onana (as Rice backup at 8) plus a 6 who can actually pass the ball. FDJ, Bruno or someone in the mould.
