Arsenal have a great squad, absolutely no doubt about it. Most are at peak age though, so the clock is ticking on them
The fit and firing is almost certainly wishful thinking!
Probably some time in the 70s to answer your question. I'm not claiming we can win it with 11 players, am pointing out the quality is there (assuming we get Barcola) its the complete lack of depth is what needs addressing
With everyone fit and firing (massive caveat clearly) I think we potentially have the best first xi in the division. The biggest issue is the utter lack of depth
No. Its a max 17 non-homegrown. You only need to fill out all the homegrown slots if you want a squad of 25 players. And a number of our first team players are too young to be included in those numbers
The 17 is the key number, we are close to that unless we sell some foreign players or don't register them
And conveniently means the Council doesn't need to invest in the area if they force the club to. Should be all parties coming together - combined authority, local council, fsg, club etc - working and funding collectively
Stylistically Alonso's football is more Slot like than Klopp like, hence going for Iraola. Given Alonso and Iraola share an agent we obviously made a conscious choice at some point
