    Apparently we are dropping our interest in Toney. That’s a relief. There seem to be plenty of other promising striker options out there for a much better price and at a younger age. Yes he’s proven PL calibre, but £80+ million for a 28 year-old is a bit much. Plus I’m not convinced on his attitude. Isak would be a better bet IMO (if we could pry him away from Newcastle). Or just take the plunge on a European player like this Sesko guy.

      I heard something a few weeks ago about Edu and Arteta being very unimpressed with his temperament, which I agree with entirely. I don’t think we’ll go for Isak mostly unless we can avoid a bidding war. Somehow I think Sesko is better value for money.
