While mudryk would have improved under Arteta, he still isn’t better than Martinelli neither is he worth the fee Chelsea paid for him. With all honesty I do love what Edu and Arteta did.
1. He cannot start ahead of any of our standard front three. So what’s the fuss?
2. A record transfer fee would put him under pressure. Pepe’s case is still there for all to see.
3. Maintaining the balance in transfer fee and weekly wage is pivotal to keeping a United and peaceful dressing room.
4. Coming from the Ukrainian league with far less experience is another gamble. There are chances he might flop. Arsenal must have learnt from the Chamakh and Pepe experience.
In summary, spending a record fee for an unproven player from a lower league to be starting from the bench is both illogical and financially reckless. Arsenal may have lured Chelsea into a trap.
Meanwhile Chelsea’s sour experience from the acquisition of Werner and Lukaku just to mention a few haven’t taught them any lesson.
NEXT THEY’LL FIRE POTTER and the circle continues.
Tottenham 1 – 3 Arsenal
