Those weeks before the world Cup 2022, levels were shown perhaps higher than any Arsenal player in modern history. Such a shame injuries completely ruined him.

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Tottenham Hotspur reach agreement with Newcastle United to sign Sandro Tonali. Deal for 26yo Italy international to join #THFC from #NUFC £92.5m + £7.5m in potential add-ons based around multiple Champions League qualifications @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/dWEZtjFzFK
Between now and then, we need proof Rodgers has the angles and efficiency to attack from the RHS. If he can, he can a 100m£ for us.
Imagine a player who is top 1% as a carrier, Xg overperfomer, is good at Lw, L10, R10.
Raya, RB, Mosquera, Calafiori, Hincapie, MLS, Zubimendi, Merino, Madueke, Havertz, Gyokeres, Eze should take all those minutes, even at e expense of points. It is harder to recover in March with crocked players than it is in October. Take the hit if you have to!
I would plan for a set of 15 players to see us through to end of September International break. Saliba, Gabriel, Timber, Rice and Saka should not see any minutes till then.
Has to be higher than this. Liverpool's academy graduate to win every single piece of club football silverware with a record number of assists. Don't sacrifice him for some dudes from the 60s and for how he left!

Julian Alvarez Update
If you remember, I stated there was another attacker I chose to keep anonymous. That player was indeed Julian Alvarez. The reason I said it was sensitive was because one of our players (Gyökeres) was potentially involved but let me just provide the facts for Arsenal fans. To my understanding the following statements are 100% factual.
• The players dream is Barca (personal terms agreed already)
• Barca have always wanted Julian to go public with his desire to force Atleti's position
• Atleti are adamant they will not to sell to Barca and would rather sell abroad but it wont stop Barca from trying
• PSG to my understanding left the race due to Campos / Enrique not wanting a player who doesn’t absolutely prioritise them but I wont be shocked if they return due to the players quality
• Julian has been a target for Arsenal since last summer
• After our group stage game Arteta made it clear we must atleast be in the race for the Argentine
• I can 100% confirm Atleti have interest in Viktor Gyökeres
• Andrea Berta has maintained contacts with the camp since last summer and has explored 'different structures & mechanisms' to bring Julian Alvarez to North London in the recent months…
• Reports about 'the English weather' being a reason Julian and his family would not return to England are absolutely false.
• The player would be very open to joining Arsenal and has directly told us should his dream to Barca become impossible
• Arsenal are yet to officially formalise their interest but Atleti are well aware of our interest.
The situation is chaotic but my role is to provide the absolute facts to the best of my knowledge in real time not predict the future. Its difficult enough tracking Berta and his 1000 spinning plates technique, its even harder when he silently speaks to ex-colleagues at Atleti with whom he has a lot of trust with but I have presented the facts. Genuinely feel a lot of relief talking about this all as its been exhausting to track for 14 months. I need to sleep now as I have been awake all night contacting sources 😂
The gap in skill and talent is not large enough to sanction the sale of an academy graduate. At worst, MLS will be a very good squad player for a title winning team.
