He allows for the progression of an academy player, Nwaneri. This is something we know the club have in mind when they are planning, is also why I fully expect either no ST or an experienced one to ensure the pathway for Chido is clear. Merino/Trossard like signings give us a clue into positions we will see more youthful players having spaces for.

Not as silky as Partey but physically and defence awareness seem to be an improvement. Partey can be rather slow when trying to pick a pass and gets pushed off the ball rather easily. Merino seems far more solid and should allow Rice to play the 8 position as he has been. £30m isn’t that big a risk either.

He could be a good fit especially if Partey gets injured again and Jorginho isn’t as quick or physical. I would like to see Arteta use Patino, Skelly and Henry Francis in the 1st team if this transfer happens. However if De Jong becomes available and for a good price I would say go for that. We don’t have a profile like odegaard and not sure if Vieira can fill that void.

Rice did a great job for us at 6 during the beginning of last season. At left no.8 there’s an imbalance and Martinelli gets isolated. Merino looks like an affordable backup in the left 8 position. I’d love to see us sign Xavi Simons or Eze for a high energy dribbling half space marauder for a tactically different first team player. Why is Fofana unattainable?
