Eberechi Eze

[Gazza Dazzla]

I thought about this the other day....how we could have got Eze when he was at QPR etc. But...The reality is these players would very unlikely develop to the level they have done with the more limited game time they would get with us. Look at Odobert for example. We DID actually dip into the younger player/30m area (and I know he's had injuries) but he's jut not got any sort of regular game time, even when he's fit.

Similar to the calls we should have signed Watkins from Brentford, but no way he gets anything like the game time or development with us playing second fiddle to Kane back then.

Havert is their striker / back up striker, they won’t need an Eze, they need a short term replacement.

Eze surely has more about him than to seriously consider being short-term cover for Kai Havertz.

Reports out he starts for Palace tomorrow. So doubt he is going anywhere for the next 30 hours

Palace are at home

Norway also isn't very frozen in August. But its us.

While I think it’s a little odd that Eze is still playing for Palace, I also totally understand it. A good performance from him tomorrow night could all but guarantee their place in the main draw of a European competition so of course they want him to play. Hopefully it’ll be his parting gift to CPFC before he comes to us.

I get the feeling Palace will announce his replacement tomorrow and then Friday morning the transfer will go through for Eze to us

Followed by Another 48hrs and by which time Eze will be parading an Arsenal shirt standing outside of the new library

If he does play tomorrow, and then IF we sign him, can he play in the Champions League Group Stages for us having already played in Conference League, or with it being a different competition it becomes irrelevant?

Doesn't stop him from playing CL
