    This talk of Mbappe to Arsenal doesn’t make sense to me.

    I know he’s a “once in a generation” talent but I just don’t see how he’d fit in with what the Gunners are building. He’s the right age profile, but I don’t see him in this team.

    What am I missing?

      We’ve never been the club to throw enormous salaries at players. It’s like Wenger said, “We don’t buy superstars, we make them.”

      If you go after a player like Mbappe, you make the team work with him in it by hook or by crook. Wouldn’t worry as it isn’t happening!
