[Football] Eddie Nketiah on loan? Anybody heard anything?
- Thread starter Mr H
- Start date
I can see why some people aren't keen on this after Akpom but Akpom was never going to make the grade at Arsenal and was a serial loanee. Nketiah on the other hand is a class player and would be very happy to get him in, alongside another permanent striker I hope, we need more options up front!

As long as he isn’t like Graham Barrett. Who was also supposed to be a goal machine at youth level at Arsenal.

Are we looking to survive on the cheap and not spend any more money before the parachute payments start.

We’ve had some **** loan signings and some legends (Zamora and McShane). Same as we have had some shite permanent signings alongside quality.
As far as this kid goes a few genuine Arsenal fans I know rate him very highly. I do wonder though if at his age Wenger might rather blooding him abroad or in the Championship. I base that theory on sweet fa though I will add.

I believe Stefan Iovan was also a loanee.
The only English he heard was:-
"you - sweeper"
No a permanent signing from Steau Bucharest for £60,000 (from memory)

No, he played against Norwich in the League Cup and scored so he was being talked about for a while.

We need a striker to hit the ground running not a promising youngster

We need both.

Why do we need a promising youngster who may or may not hit it off., Probably safer to stick with a tried and tested scorer. We had the promising youngster in James Wilson from United and that didnt go down too well.

Because every great player was a promising youngster once.Still would get the tried and tested goalscorer as well, that's why i said both.

With what we have now? I’d take a promising youngster rather than nobody.

A mahoosive difference between scoring regularly in youth team football, and scoring regularly in the Premier League.

Anybody remember Brian Dear from West Ham ? I think he must have been our first ever loan signing (back in the 60s) He scored 5 in 4 games and I saw most of them.

Apparently Newcastle are interested in taking him on loan. If Arsenal do want to loan him out, Should we make a move for him ?
I'd be surprised if Arsenal let him go, he seems to be featuring more and more under Arteta and especially as they might sell Lacazette this window.
Ha, Colin Pates. He's a good lad. Had a few good evenings in The Joker with him.
Sit him down with a beer and he'll talk all night about the Chelsea and Arsenal teams of the 90's.
The Tony Adams tales are fantastic.
He was great mates with Ray Wilkins so good stories there too.
