Finding a new CF is most important, but I would put DM and RW as equally important since both are about finding new cover for our starters. Arteta seems to have no inclination of playing Pepe, and Saka can't afford to play every game. It'll tear on his body and make him prone to injury. And obviously we need a new DM to either start or cover for Xhaka/Partey/Lokonga

Allow White and Gab to spray the passes from the back and O8 working with ESR/Tierney/Martinelli making quick 1-2s through the midfield if that option is limited. Pepe playing through the middle as a no 10 gives him the opportunity to showcase how he can hold the ball at the final third. He also has a good record of headers, winning almost all of his headers playing on the wing. His understanding with Laca will be much better and he can always drift to the wing to support the right side, as what O8 usually does.

Either way both positions are needed, as well as backups for both right sided positions.

A rare video from tifo that lacks the insight we expect, due to afcon midfield is the priority then striker and then left wing if anything

“They really need help retaining possession in the midfield!” “that’s why we recommend a forward and a wide attacker”

In fairness to Tifo, most teams’ defence starts with the attack - so it was reasonable to suggest that a CF is the most important position. A dual-fold purchase, someone who is good at attacking whilst also able to press and rotate with the wingers. It also provides cover for the central area of the pitch, which Tifo determined was an area of concern for Arsenal.

Please do one of these for Everton. Especially with Rafa’s tactics it would be great to see what players and positions you select. Keep up the great work 💙

The problem with Alex isak is he has never scored or had combined goal contributions more than 20. Although he is good with link up play, dribbling and shots on goal, that doesn’t clarify he’s a good striker. The sole purpose of a striker is to receive and score. David was originally a cam/cf so has to link up play because that’s the job of a cam/cf. isak might be good in a cam/cf role but I don’t think that’s a risk they should take. Kulusevswi is good my bad. 😏😏

I would say Center Mid is probably more important than the wide forward since Arsenal have Pepe who isn't necessarily great but is good enough to give cover to Saka. Their midfield though is incredibly thin. Partey is in AFCON, Elneny is too and is not good enough, Lokonga is not ready to be a regular starter and Xhaka will be either sent off or give away a penalty because his brain only works in 15 minute increments with an hour break in between.

Scamacca is actually a pretty good choice imo. I follow Serie A a lot, and i say if Arsenal don’t buy Vlahovic they should go for Scamacca. Some of the goals he’s scored this season are unbelievable, he’s so good on the ball and he looks genuinely hungry for goals. Every time he hits the ball he hits it with a lot of power. Good choice Tifo

Isn’t Fiorentina getting Scamacca as a replacement for Vlahovic?

I was wrong. They’re signing Basel striker, Arthur Cabral.

Chiesa just got a big injury. So Kulusevsky seems impossible now. Anyway it's pretty obvious they need a CM. Will be hard to add true quality there without breaking the bank in January.

I think that the cm Tifo suggested was decent. Maxence is more of a destroyer but is a decent passer. For striker and winger I would pick Jonathan david and Antony resp. Because david is a versatile player who has shown in Belgium to be a good linkup player and a scorer in Lille. He could improve on his aerial duels, spg and key passes but overall he is a good player👍🏽 Antony is perfect for that right side. Good spg, dribbling per 90 and key passes all close or above 2 a game. He’s agile and can wiggle his way through players and he is decent finisher. He’s also a good presser and is comfortable with the ball (obviously he’s footballer) and occasionally knows when to dribble and when to pass. He’s also versatile and play on the left and as a striker. Him and david combined would cost close to £100 million but if arsenal want qualification to ucl I think these are better.

Central Midfield is actually very important for Arsenal and they need a carrier as much as they do a passer. They also need a wide attacker. All this was obvious in the summer. I wonder if they can do good deals in January, because depth can cost them and have them return to their pre-December creative rut.

Thank You Tifo I've been telling all my friends about Scamacca.

Would love to see a Brighton version of this!

So Tifo just assumed that Nicolas Pepe doesn't exist when they said that a Saka backup was needed?

surprised to not see bruno guimaraes on this list. he's put up some very remarkable numbers this season and played very well in the olympics.

I'm agree about your opinion sensible transfer isak & Dejan still young & versatile

CM to complement partey is key, a striker can wait until the summer.

As a Swedish Arsenal fan I would love to see Isak and Kulusevski at the club. They carried the Swedish national team with the help of Forsberg.

Andrea belotti and ivan toney are also good shouts for cf role

Kulu sees himself as a central attacker more than he sees himself as a wide attacker. You will notice he always starts as one half of the 2 in Janne Anderssons 4-4-2, almost always alongside Isak. I doubt he would accept a move that would see him play out wide.

We really need to strenghten in the midfiel. And i really like Caqueret and would love it if we actually get him but it seems like the arsenal board is looking elsewhere unfortunatly

central midfield is the most important position we need to strengthen in lol we only have xhaka and elneny there while afcon is on. after that its strikers. but kudos for suggesting chucky lozano, id die of happiness if he joined arsenal

Well CM is probably their biggest area of concern. Tolisso would be a perfect CM fit, he could start along side Partey, Lokanga / Xhaka In the rotation. Laca is their Cavani at the moment but assuming they'll sell Abu, then yes Isak is probably the best long term replacement. As for RW, Saka has that on lock down, so they would probably need to sell Pepe... I would go for Rebic from Milan, who can play across the line, rw/LW and st and on top of that Nelson comes back from loan

We need one for AC Milan, they are resurging but they also need areas to strengthen

1) Arsenal's CM woes are their #1 concern. 2) Lokonga is not the starter. They are Partey & Xhaka. Yes, even after years of trying to upgrade on Xhaka, they still are searching for that upgrade.

If we move Xhaka, bringing in two centre mids might be ideal. Also, we shouldn’t forget that we have Pepe. Even though he isn’t quite what we thought he would be, he’s still quite good in a lot of situations.

Tifo's standards have fallen big time. Sensible transfers used to be the best but now they just go for the popular choices and don't even discuss stats properly! It's like not much effort is being put into this and it's rather sad because I was waiting for this Arsenal special but very disappointed!

Bro the 2019 ones are so goated they used to go so in depth

Kulusevski and Isak have also played great as a perrnership in the national team

I think Tchouameni would be the perfect guy for Arsenal. Physical, hard working; but also has good technique and passing ability. For center forward, I'm really not sure about Vlahovic although he seems like the biggest candidate. He can be an excellent striker, but he isn't exactly a good fit for the Premier League. Serie A's low tempo helps pivot forwards like Lukaku and Vlahovic to shine while the Premier League requires more pace and/or technical skills. Isak looks like a better fit, even though his ceiling isn't as high as Vlahovic's.

Idk, I think the biggest issue is the lack of coverage in our deeper midfield positions. Without Xhaka and Partey we were woeful. Elneny's good defensively, but does little on the attack and Lokonga isn't ready yet. We have enough up front at the moment. Also, an understudy for Tomi would be great as Cedric is just OK

"Arsenal need goals against big sides" Also "We'll recommend all the players who need to up their goal scoring"

I can get behind the Isak and Kulusevski picks, but I think they are off base with the midfield picks and comments. Sangare feels like the obvious player to try to snap up, Gravenberch is class too, but I don't know if they are willing to pay the crazy money required to get Ajax to consider moving him along giving it's not the only move for a regularly starting class player they really need to make. Personally I would love to woo Pellegrini or Milinkovic-Savic over from Serie A but those are both highly unlikely and exorbitantly priced dream signing type picks. That's part of the problem, there aren't many midfielders ~25 or younger that fit the bill for us that are looking to move and/or that clubs are willing to sell for anything less than insane money. The Midfield is definitely coming together steadily but they absolutely need more talent and depth there to compete at the level the fans expect!

Isak, Kulu and Svanis! Swedish excellence!

Chucky Lozano to Arsenal screams Carlos Vela flashbacks where he would shine but never get a chance

So Isak to Newcastle, Scamacca to west ham and Kulusevski to Spurs. All in the Premier League.

Feel like edus been watching these....good for us

Although I would say midfield is more important that a winger, these were truly sensible transfers

FWIW They said arguably least. Most including I would argue against. Though seen from a lens of Lacazette and nketiah gone and Auba either gone, downed tools or old as I can see why they might have prioritized CF.

As a Liverpool supporter i'm hoping that Isak moves ro Lfc, he'd suite us great. However as a swede I'd just love to see him and Kulu play together in the prem, not to mention Svanberg

This is so crazy because last year i played arsenal on fm and literally did the same thing, dejan at the right and isak at centre forward, and they actually won the prem lol

Obviously the wing backs due to injury, and wide forwards aren't performing to standard. Playing Sarr as full back is only viable if the wingers are attacking well, but left wing is weak. So 3421 is still the main play style, means a gamble on Hall, obviously Tuchel doesn't want to spend much on temporary solution. Azpi to be replaced next, so Dest is good as he plays both left right. Kounde the future cb is still needed if one of the 3 cb left.

my thoughts: CF: Splash on Isak, then gamble on another to compete for Balogunnnner RW: Saka, rotate with Martinelli. Pepe can alleviate as well. Wait for Reiss to come back CM: Splash on Bissouma, Ndidi, and steal Gallagher without anyone knowing
