Buffon is leaving PSG. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/48534479 Idi Amin.gif and that’s coming from an arsenal fan. Whoever else said up thread it’s a large number of goals to replace is right. Our strikers covered up for a bunch of middling team performances in the 2nd half of the season to get results from games. Auba was the majority of that. Oddly, Arsenal mostly played well as a team early in the year and had shitty results. So who the f knows.

An interesting though I saw on WAGNH: CL qualification is worth about 50 million. Unless Real wants to really break the bank for him, it may be better long term to keep Hazard and let him go on a free next year (or cheap in January) since he's probably the difference between qualifying for CL and not. It may be the better move to keep him through the transfer ban and go for CL qualification than to let him leave and pretty much give up on CL. It would be a net loss of 30-50 million, but if we sell him now we can't replace him and if we make CL after he leaves we'll be a more attractive club for a replacement when the ban is over. Or, keep him through December and sell him for less in the January transfer window since that will allow CHO and RLC to get healthy. A fall without Hazard, CHO, and RLC and no replacements because of the ban would be doom for the team and may set us back more long term than taking a monetary hit by selling him for less in January or giving him up on a free next year.

But Zidane really wants Pogba.

It would be similar to Herman and recruiting news. Some info, but relatively quiet until the school wants us to know about it.
