He’s a very good footballer, but a bad defender.

In a back three, like under Conte, he can be really good. In a pairing he’s a disaster waiting to happen.

He does some daft shit in every game so it must be a real slog to play with him

I think you're viewing this too much through LFC-tinted specs.  Both clubs here made good signings that will improve them.  You lambast Arsenal for not signing defenders, seemingly ignoring their capture of David Luiz.  They should have sold Aubameyang?  I mean, why?  Strange comment.  No mention of Saliba or Tierney, either. 

Is right.

 

Arse have had a good Summer and certainly improved.

Played his best stuff under Rafa when played in midfield.

 

Knows his stuff does Rafa.

[sir roger]

Luiz has his limitations defensively but Arsenal are a progressive side and he will certainly help their playing out from the back.

 

I think they will be entertaining to watch this year and their centre half stocks are pretty average, but not quite as bad as I thought ( Luiz , Sokratis , Mustafi , Holding , Chambers , Mavropanos )

Yeah, defensive midfield or sweeper where he can be a spare man and you don’t have to worry about him switching off and losing someone.

Luiz is absolutely brilliant technically, as good as any centre back there's been in that department. His passing to Aubameyang, Pepe and Lacazette will be deadly, his quality on the ball is a huge advantage. But yeah, his decision making is crazy at times. It's a risk to have him in a partnership against a lot of sides. I still love him as a player, though.

I love watching David Luiz play. He's really entertaining. Wouldn't feel that way if he played for us though.

Imagine him and Moreno in defence together ?

A Lovren, Luiz & Moron back line would be a sight to behold indeed.

Back line in the loosest sense as they'd rarely be within 40 yards of each other.

This thread was awful until the Ev spunked 35 million quid on a forward who has scored 11 in 100 at club level for Arsenal and 6 in 36 for Nigeria.  

[Anubis]

Iwobi has always struck me as a slightly more polished version of Adama Treore. Little bit of a flash run followed by fucking it up.

[Anubis]

Evertonian, Gary Hyland, 32 years of age. Sentenced in a few weeks.

For the net spend lovers.

Villa are surely going to be in the shit if they get relegated again.

[Grinch]

How the fuck has Iwobi cost 30m if he plays for Nigeria?   I was under the impression he was English with that fee. 

[Josef Svejk]

Who did Villa buy? I'd no idea they were spending big...

These clubs coming up are spending their parachute payments I reckon.

You've got to speculate to accumulate it's a calculated risk I suppose 

[Anubis]

Let’s hope it fails and they drop back into the Championship.

Leipzig were desperate to sell Werner this window. By not selling, it means he's already decided on Bayern. United will offer about £80m for Eriksen in January - so the idea of us getting a good deal with those fools around is fanciful. 

Still a couple of weeks left for Bayern to get him cheap isn't there. I don't for one second think he's had a interest in leaving Germany. Its always been Bayern

[Boss]

I don't understand why teams like Villa do that when they come up. It's mostly the teams that stay together like Leicester under Pearson, Swansea under Rodgers etc that stay up. The ones that go on a spending spree and replace their first team with mercenaries almost always go back down.
