Good Morning Ed,

Do you know if Arsenal have any loan targets that we may be looking at in January?

Appreciate the club have their preffered options and would expect them in the summer but we have to address the goalscoring issue now, not when the season is over.

Thank you as always.

{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of Arsenal looking to take a striker on loan.}

Thank you Ed.

Do you know if there is any significant interest from clubs to buy players and if so, who we could potentially see leave in January?

Thank you.

{Ed002's Note - Cedric Soares and Eddie Nketiah perhaps.}

Interesting with Eddie. We can't sell without replacement so whilst I wouldn't be against him leaving, we need to ensure we have a replacement all but sealed.

Thanks Ed, appreciate it.

{Ed002's Note - Perhaps Khayon Edwards could be given a chance? January is a difficult time to buy and moving for Toney would draw a huge premium.}

Completely understand that Ed, i'm not saying it has to be Toney as much as I would like us to sign him. It's just that nothing suggests Arteta would give Edwards a chance, especially when we are in the siutation we are in now. It's a lot to ask of a kid who's never played in the PL.

{Ed002's Note - Of course, Arsenal have other targets as well.}

Is Victor Boniface one of those targets sir? I have seen his name mooted around reports.

I know you prefer not to delve into FFP conversations but are we likely to be pulled up FFP do you know? I see that clubs will know by Jan 14th supposedly. Bearing in mind we never make good revenue from player sales it wouldn't surprise me if we were, having spent a fortune.

{Ed002's Note - Victor Boniface (S) Juventus have Bonface as a first choice Vlahovic replacement if needed. Barcelona want him to replace Lewandowski. Probably first choice for Napoli to replace Osimhen. Arsenal have sent scouts. Bayer Leverkusen would seek a huge profit and would not be open to selling mid-season. Player wants a move t Spain.

I don't expect Arsenal to have any serious issue but players do need to move on.}

Nice one, thanks Ed002.

I like what little I've seen of Edwards but have found it a little strange that after giving Nwaneri his debut, Arteta promptly shut the door on youth making appearances!
