@RedCarpetViews Tzolis was mentioned by every journalist as being a market opportunity and back up to a Marquee signing. 8/10 as a score suggests a great window when the club has “currently” failed to meet the main objective of improving the attack on paper. 2 out 1 in.
@JamesB_afc Eze issue is his work rate. He hasn’t got the ability to do repeated sprints on the wing like Tzolis, Olise, etc. This stops him from being involved throughout a game. Seems like he’s conserving energy. Talent isn’t in question.
@GunnerMoustafa@Arsyuccie@supremefeysal Regardless of your thoughts on Gyokeres, he scored 21 goals without wingers and full backs constantly looking for him to finish actions. That is how you use a traditional 9. Early crosses, cut backs, fast build up etc. He could have scored a lot more.
@RohanJivanAFC His game does rely on mobility though. Has an insane engine, constantly running off the ball. So that side of his game might take hit when he’s older. Not something to worry about at 24 though.
@DanLFC1_ Arteta bought players that would suit a more transitional system but didn’t make any changes to his system. All those players now look like square pegs in round holes. Are now squad depth. His signing this summer are in line with his system.
@themagic_tophat@livescore Even at grassroots level it’s common practice for agents of players to pitch to clubs first before being formally scouted. Micheli went to watch him personally then pushed the signing. Standard scouting practice.
Arsenal are perfectly entitled to try and sell Gabriel Martinelli.
But after seven years of good service, Martinelli is entitled to expect some transparency from #AFC too.

@curtisshaw9 Gunnerblog put out a post not too long ago saying Martinelli hasn’t been told that he’s being offered to clubs. Communication hasn’t been great, he’s basically being forced out against his wishes.
Arsenal offered Club Brugge forward Christos Tzolis. Sporting director Andrea Berta actively pursuing £35m deal after assistant Maurizio Micheli watched the Greece international play v Sweden last week. Mikel Arteta on board with possible signing. https://t.co/WVvyaF3I84
@FaudJama@Rory_Talks_Ball Did it against man city and has preformed throughout pre season. There’s enough sample size to say he’s a good player. Can only get better.
