Eddie Nketiah - Go & Get Him

Mon Aug 05, 2019 8:16 am

Seeing us linked with Eddie Nketiah is encouraging - he's the perfect loan signing for us with youth, quality and hunger.

Bristol City and other clubs in for him though

Go & get him asap

Highly rated so should be good but not tested in championship so will be a gamble can we afford to take a gamble considering we need tried and tested players not unknown talent.

It would surprise me if we went for a 20yr old for our CM position that I believe is vital to this season.
Like most, I’ve never seen him play but would have thought a more experienced player who’s done it before would have been more up Warnock’s street.

If he’s a ‘wonder kid’ (always makes me laugh) perhaps he worth a punt! :laughing6:

the Wurzels have just sold about 30 millions pounds worth of players - so will want to replace and have the money to spend.

All I will say is remember the last wonder kid, we had from Arsenal ?
J.E.T !!!

I'd be happy for anyone who can control and pass a football, preferably to someone on the same side !

Reminds me of a barbed comment, possibly from Ron Atkinson, who said that Carlton Palmer could control a football further than he could kick it. Priceless.

He's a striker with a lot of pace and very highly rated by Arsenal and their fans apparently. But he's 20 now and with players like Lacazette, Aubameyang, Pepe, Iwobi, and Reiss Nelson in front of him he needs first team football. As happy as id be if he signed here I reckon he'll join Bristol City and he'd probably get more chances there than here but hope we win the race anyway.

Most reports saying he will be available on a season's loan. I wonder what the going rate is for a wonderkid loan fee these days?

Didn’t work out very well the last time we signed a future star from Arsenal on loan did it.

Leeds United are reported as being highly likely to win the race for Arsenal talent Eddie Nketiah.


The 20-year-old is expected to join the Sky Bet Championship club on loan for the season, according to the Press Association.

He will be a replacement for Kemar Roofe who joined Anderlecht for an undisclosed fee on Tuesday.
