“I understand it’s very likely they’ll make the loan deal for Pablo Mari into a permanent deal for around £10m.” : Gunners

Why? I know we haven’t seen much of him, but that’s why we shouldn’t get him. We don’t need more CBs, we need better ones, ones we know are great, and we don’t know that about Mari.

We currently have Mustafi, Chambers, Holding, Luiz, Saliba, Mav, Sokratis, and him. That’s 8 centre backs, and not one of them is a current, proven top 4 quality centre back.

Imo we should not buy Mari, sell Sokratis and Mustafi, loan Mavrapanos and buy someone who improves our starting XI

edit: also do you guys think Saliba will be starting for us next year?
