Hi all, been a voyeur for years but decided to jump in. Thinking on the Gorginho news, take some time with it. TP doesn't have the best injury record so do we want him playing Thu/ Sun every week, absolutely not and at 31 ish not going to work for Gorginho either. Our preferred target is not for sale, so at most he plays once a week and is at least proper player to cover midfield roles. So he's a serial winner with bags of experience. He's actually perfect and doesn't stop younger players progressing.

Absolutely Ash, welcome, and looking forward to some more well-thought-out posts from you, I took my time to comment on it as at first I was like "what are we doing" but actually its a decent short terms option and it would perhaps show that they are committed to their preferred long terms options (hopefully Rice) and not going to just rip up the plan they have in place, I was thinking along the loan route but its a deal that means we won't lose out in the summer and can move him on a recoupe the £10 million we have outlayed, and then in the summer get our preferred targets.

he won't heed an adjustment time to the prem, won't need to move house or his family, and has a chance at a prem league winners medal so will be absolutely motivated to return to some of his old best form.

Very good take on it Ash mate.
Not on board with the signing but you have put forward a very good argument for buying him.

Seems like a no brainer with Lakonga out on loan and Elneny just having had knee surgery. Players seem to be on board as well :)

Ash, right now the only thing you got going for you is you're an Arsenal fan. Jorginho? I've cried a little today.
