Alfie’s Arsenal transfer podcast – Keepers, a new winger and other rumours

Alfie’s podcasts are back after a little break caused by the chaos of the World Cup, so here is a new transfer video, in which I discuss the Goalkeeper situation, as well as assessing the potential winger options, in Coman, Zaha, Malcolm etc….

Enjoy!

  1. I’m liking this Welbeck to Newcastle links. I think it will be best to sign him up on a 4 year contract then send him on a two year loan to Newcastle with an option to recall after one year. Aubameyang is 29, Welbeck is 27, both are quite athletic players, the one or two years at Newcastle where he has a genuine shot at being the main striker will most likely give him good playing time to assess how he’ll perform with consistent playing time on the pitch, it frees up the third striker role for an ageing but effective Lucas Perez and a developing Nketiah.

    1. datguy is not good enough, want offer him a trial @ 27? he have seen a lot of him to judge what he can and what he cannot. his best was under Ferguson, if anyone can bring the best of him Alex can. goodbye danny boy, it is new era. bring Coman in for him period.

      1. Not that i want Welbeck to stay but have seen enough of Coman to pay over 50m for him. There are better 22 years players that will cost less.

        1. finally somebody with my thinking!!
          coman I s very average!!!
          there are better wingers in d market than him.

      2. These’s a reason why I said offer a four year deal but send him on a two year loan with an option to recall after the first year. Newcastle will be forced to keep him for at least two of the four years if he flops, we’ll be left with what the final two years, as it stands we are left with one year anyways so that will just be like adding an extra year to his current contract plus about 50% of what he is currently earning. A striker usually needs consistent game time to get to their best, Welbeck has always had a bigger profile player in front of him, Rooney at Man. U, Giroud at Arsenal, at Newscastle, he has a good shot as the main striker and most strikers hit their peak at about 28/29, I want in on that peak if there’s any.

    2. Whut?

      People still think Welbeck’s got “potential”? PFFFFT.

      Sell him ASAP.

      Injuries are excuses for him. Even if he had played 400 games until now, he wouldn’t have scored over 15 goals a season. Why? BECAUSE HE’S NOT THAT GOOD.

      He misses absolute sitters time after time, trips over his own feet.. Many of his goals are very scrappy.

  2. The gen on the streets is that
    Arsenal is so desperate to keep
    super star wing/striker Danny Welbeck
    that he will be offered an improved contract
    rumoured to be around 340k per week.
    I think he is worth at least 500k per week.
    We must keep the wiz kid Welbeck at all costs.

  3. Coman says he is not leaving Bayern any time soon as he just signed a long term with the club..Maybe we should now focus on other targets such as Lozano or zaha…However, if we don’t manage to get the wingers that we want maybe we should continue playing Auba as the left winger and Lacazette as 9…Auba can play as an inverted forward just like Manzukic does for Juventus..This way we would have our two goal machines playing together which guarantees more goals…

  4. ladies and gentlemen , let’s take a moment to laugh at KEV
    [1/3] “We have already accepted a loan + option to buy bid for Welbeck from Newcastle as well as Everton’s bid which is around £18m.
    It’s now up to Welbeck to choose which team he prefers.”

    LOL WE ACCEPTED A LOAN+OPTION TO BUY BID FOR WELBECK ? SOMEONE THAT HAS A ONE YEAR CONTRACT ? HOW DOES THAT WORK HUH ?

    [2/3] “We have rejected a £7.5m bid from AS Roma for Petr Cech.Whether that is right thing to do is another thing.”
    ANYONE WITH COMMON SENSE WOULD KNOW THIS IS BULLSHIT. WHO BIDS £7.5M FOR A 36 YEAR OLD GOALKEEPER WITH A YEAR CONTRACT LEFT?

    [3/3] MY CONCLUSION : KEV, you are a fraud . you know absolutely nothing about football .

    1. Don’t forget that he told everyone that Leno was 100% going to Nice or Marseille (can’t remember which one he said now) and also that our first match of the season would be against someone other than Man City.

      I think he gets off on people believing that he is a valuable source of insider information.

  5. AS Roma and Barcelona are fighting over Malcom, the young inverted RW. Arsenal should also try to hijack this deal

    Zaha is very good, but he would not be cheap and Aubameyang can play in his position very well. For a right-footed winger like him, they had better chase Adama Traore (waiting for complaints on this name…)
