Chelsea's wizardry with selling their scraps needs to be studied someday. If they manage to move Jackson and get a solid fee for him it is fair to wonder if they are in league with Satan.

Oh no...perhaps not Satan...but 'Devil Adjacent?'

well my fear is that, because Chelsea have interest in Garnacho, there might be some stupid swap deal there. Hopefully I'm wrong ... I mean, they can have Garnacho, but I'd rather get another strike somewhere else.

Well I suggested before they have Arteta leveraged and thats why Arsenal keeping giving away premium prices for discount brands. If Arsenal do in fact end up with Jackson I will be fully convinced Chelsea have Arteta on video killing hookers.

Maybe you can pry Robin van Persie from Feyenoord? I'm sure Zlatan thinks he can still hack it!

Personally, I'd go for Ollie Watkins. He can do a job for two or three years and be a stop gap while they get their #### in order. Other name that has been floated is Benjamin Sesko, but having watched him closely at Salzburg and Leipzig, I've honestly never understood the hype around him.
He's being valued at £80-£100M by Chelsea?

Oh come on United....do it!

well, I'll take a flyer on him for 80m if they sign Garnacho for 100m. Easy enough PSR hack for both teams.

In all seriousness though, just sign Watkins and be done with it, please and thank you.

I don't know, I thought that Gyokeres has always dreamed about "putting on the pressure" and finishing trophyless, so you could close that one out!

Fabrizio confirmed it today with a "here we go" so Gyokeres looks done; finally.
Arsenal with an actual striker will be interesting to see.

Arsenal plan to fly Viktor Gyokeres to Singapore on their pre-season tour for a medical ahead of his blockbuster move from Sporting.

Get that Singaporean medical done!
