@Astrealix why get him? Serious question. If free he’d be on huge wages and for a player that Chelsea, athletico and apparently no one else really wants? I don’t see it.
Wages would be a concern, yeah. But if we could get him as backup for Saka I think we’d be in a better position as a squad — and given the links to him previously I think there’s something Arteta definitely sees in him.

I don’t think he was that impactful during his stint at Chelski to warrant us splurging on his salary
