Title: Fredericks to Arsenal???
Post by: Marcel_Gecov on April 18, 2018, 12:57:41 PM
Two papers reporting that Arsenal are in for Ryan Fredericks on a free. Must be something in it I guess but surely they can do better.

I'm not even sure Arsene Wenger will be there next season

Good as he is for us he's not good enough for a top premiership club.

This is Arsenal we are talking about.  Ryan Fredericks is Maldini compared to some of their defensive signings under Wenger.

Some journo jumping the gun, come the sum a number of clubs will be chasing Fredericks, but I doubt it will be a Preier top six club.

Bellerin is just a Spanish, better Fredericks. Can't see why you'd want two of the same player.

I don't think it outrageous

He's the best right back in the championship and at 25, probably still hasn't quite peaked yet, so definitely has the potential to be an average or slightly above average premier league right back next season

Arsenal aren't the force they once were. They won't be in Europe next year and are in the same bracket as Burnley and Leicester in the table

Also just because they sign him, doesn't mean he'll be an automatic starter. He could just be a decent squad player they pick up on a free transfer

he's english which adds appeal as well

Exactly

How many stories keep popping up saying this or that team is in for our players and it's a locked deal?
I've lost count
Everyone wants to stay if we get promoted as they will get to play.

Why not ? Free signing worth a punt. Stupid not to IMO
