Rumour - Alex Iwobi

[Hoop Blah]

Also if Bri Bri has said no loans, it doesn't make much difference what happens with the current loanees.

What football managers say and what football managers do are often quite different things Pepe.

Get Reading running an article on this now, but doesn't say anything about it being a loan. what are the odds of it being a permanent move? Is he very highly rated by the Arse?

Based on this I would suggest it will be a loan.

Charles Watts @charles_watts

Similar to Afobe by the sounds of it who they did eventually sell. Think he was a bit older than 19 when sold though so can't see them selling Iwobi yet.

Charlo Watts recks no more loans.

But we might make some loanees permanent, send one or two back?

Not sure it's that easy ... only if parent club agrees to 'recall' loanee ....

Would depend on the terms of the loan. Could easily be a break clause either way in January. The parent club would have agreed up front.

Depends what he means. Did he say "no more loans" meaning

This many is our maximum

or we aren;t getting in loanees even if all this lot would nought/got rid of

Based on that I would suggest he would require 3 established internationals getting injured before he had a sniff of a chance in the first team, and at his stage of development,. he needs to be playing regularly. Whilst it raises the possibility of a loan, the inference is that his future lies away from Arsenal.

I don't want some egotistic, Arse waste who isn't going to fulfil his potential at my club.

It's a no from me.

[Maneki Neko]

But what if he does fulfil his potential? eh?

[Tommio]

But what if he does fulfil his potential? eh?

He won't in 20 games...

[melonhead]

Not all of it. No.

Yeah this Sidwell chap sounds shit, no thanks.

[Royal_jimmy]

We don't need a new striker, or a new winger.

We are spoiled for choice as it is.

What we need is a manager who doesn't compensate for his lack of tactical nous by bringing in more and more strikers. If we're not careful we're going to end up like a bargain-basement QPR.

What we need is a right back to replace Mr Liability Chris Gunter.

Of the two I think yours has the edge.
Melonhead simly replaces Kenobi with Iwobi, whereas you've gone the whole hog.
