Probably was willing to move - a) climate b) wages c) it's a Muslim country d) great expat set up from what I've read
Some players have no allegiances or goals in football. They're just looking for the next paycheck, so I'm not surprised at all.
Damn, I really think he could be great for us but probably decently stocked in that sort of role already. Underused by Southgate.
Yeah he's come on leaps and bounds the last few seasons after transitioning over from championship football but at that price......City can have him.
I have faith in Carvalho if we stick by him can become a similar player.
Cut out your anti-Darwin rhetoric, bud
I knew it when I wrote it...
Good signing for Arsenal. Mikel Pulis to play 4 x CBs. Joking aside this will be a good move for them I reckon. Looked good in the Euros and excellent for Bologna. Injuries could be a concern but Arsenal are recruiting well at the moment.

We should have bought him… Closest thing to Mane I’ve seen in a while.
Do. Not. Sign. AFCON. Players.
You want us to avoid the whole Continent because of AFCON?
We will miss out on some exciting players, we could do with some exciting players. Bored of Diaz just running left to right without anything else.
Pretty much yea. Fuck losing our players for 6 weeks every other season for a shite competition.
I’m sure that’s been scrapped because of the additional European games.
True. It has fucked a few seasons for us. Especially when Mane was around
Not really, we did ok when Salah and Mane were away.
If you listen to some of posters on here, we did better apparently this year with Salah in AFCON then when he came back, can't have it both ways.
I think we are really over-egging it here, its' not ideal and would prefer if was in the summer but we would still have a player for 6 months regardless of AFCON, it would be a short sighted way to miss out some fantastic players.

Apparently?
Had to check.
17-18 season:
Premier League - 4th
FA Cup - Fourth round
EFL Cup - Third round
UEFA Champions League - Runners-up
21-22 season:
Premier League - 2nd
FA Cup - Winners
EFL Cup - Winners
UEFA Champions League - Runners-up
My main gripe is with that 21-22 season. Maybe we would have won it all with Mane and Salah avoiding playing a bunch of 120 min games for their countries mid season?
Didn’t Salah get injured for his longest period at the AFCON? Mane and Salah were even more frosty after AFCON?
Well yeah after Mane won it.
If it was upto me, Salah should retire from Int duty now.
We did ok 21-22 while he was away but Mane came looked good as he then started playing through the middle, Salah less so and looked tired.
It is OK to sign AFCON players, as long as they are shit. They are less likely to get called up, and, if they do, we won't miss them so much.
It's the good AFCON players we shouldn't sign.
I’m not against signing African players. Or for signing shit ones. More Matips less Keitas. That works in a couple of ways.
IE He is okay with players that miss half the season or more through injuries routinely but not 6 weeks for AFCON
6 months out for Matip or 12 months out for Keita?
