@ironeaglebird if you like usmnt you like arsenal; balo, Turner, trusty, musah
@WorldcupCSR @ironeaglebird KSE should be making more of this, capitalising on their US Sportsball successes. Sell more kit in The US market, have more to spend on players
@ronsboy67 @WorldcupCSR @ironeaglebird I think this is what they are kinda doing with the US tours. Not as direct, but kinda the same idea.
This could seriously make Balogun a star in the US, but all the rumors lean towards us selling Balogun and Trusty.
@ironeaglebird @poorlydrawnarsenal hope this raises the transfer fee
I actually wonder if Balogun choosing to represent USMNT might change our plans for him. Jesus is clearly still ahead, but if he continues to progress, he'll be a nailed on starter for the US (who are thin up top). I wonder if KSE will see that as too big an opportunity to not explore.
I don't think they'd push Edu or Arteta to make Balogun a bigger part of the team -- I sure as heck hope they continue to keep their distance on playing decisions -- but they might be willing to get more creative to ensure Balo stays in the loop. Like poorly says, we're clearly trying to grow the brand in the US, and he could certainly figure into those plans.
@gunnersaurus @ironeaglebird @ronsboy67 @poorlydrawnarsenal i do like the look of him over Eddie; looks stronger and more aggressive
@WorldcupCSR @gunnersaurus @ironeaglebird @poorlydrawnarsenal The trouble is that Arsenal's biggest need is in the midfield, and with PIF owning Newcastle and at the same time backdoor bankrolling Chelsea, and Qatar about to own both Mancs , someone, or several someones, are going to have to go just to keep the financial imbalance from being irreparable
