    That’d be awkward.

    So he's going to be our Marquis signing?

    Coat. Taxi. Good slapping.

    He’d cost a few and wouldn’t have much of a residual value if he signed for more than 2 years so I very very much doubt it.

    I don't see it but even though we gave him grief he would be a welcome addition, although I would still have Tom Eaves over him.

    Would absolutely love Nketiah here. Him and Bielik please, c'mon Unai you know it makes sense.

    Interesting, Grant McCann has just emerged as the favourite for the Hull City job. Maybe that's where the Marquis leaving talk has come from, might not be happy with his manager off and teammates rapidly departing around him

    Nketiah born in Lewisham
    aswel so is a local boy! Really hope we get Bielik back too, he got on well with LB so don’t see why he wouldn’t. 

    Would be be a real kick in the balls if he doesn’t come back ;)

     “Newly-promoted Charlton Athletic appear to be the most likely destination for Nketiah at the moment.

     The Addicks beat Sunderland 2-1 in the League One playoff final to seal their place in the Championship next season, and Charlton and Arsenal have done business together in the past, with Krystian Bielik's loan spell during the last campaign considered a huge success.

     Charlton may have to act quickly, however, as it is likely a whole host of other Championship clubs will be interested in the player, or alternatively he could end up going abroad.“

    Eddie would be a real quality addition for us and you would hope with our relationship with Arsenal down the years they would factor that in.

    Marquis is likely to leave anyway. 67 goals for Doncaster in 3 seasons will attract attention from higher clubs

    Would be an upgrade on Tom Eaves, imo.
    Marquis, Taylor, Bonne and Nketiah would be a decent front four to choose from.

    I was really hoping we’d get Nketiah after the Grant situation.

    He’s highly rated by both Arsenal and England youth setups, sadly I think we are about 6 months too late to make it happen, he will play top tier football.

    Arsenal are happy loaning to us - Bielik and Coquelin benefitted massively from it

    I can see him going top tier in Germany for example, but I’m not sure whether Arsenal will loan him to another Prem side.

    Looks like maybe Hoffenheim (among others) might want him? Arsenal loaned them Reiss Nelson last season and he did well, scoring seven in nineteen appearances.

    Nketiah first linked with Charlton last September at Bromley Addicks.

    Cawley being very defeatist there. Lots of factors come into a loan deal. Player may prefer to stay closer to home. Parent club may have a favourable view of the amount of game time a certain team will give the player, or the way they play, or the reputation they have for good coaching. Not that that necessarily makes us the front runner for this deal, but when a promising young player is being loaned out by a club the size of Arsenal - the loaning club's standing and the financials of the deal play a lesser role than in other types of transfer. I don't see why we wouldn't be a serious option.

    Cawley has ruled out the Marquis link to Millwall, but not us. 2+2, John Marquis confirmed. Didn't mean to call you s**t when you missed your penno John, honest.

    Would be happy with Marquis. Like Taylor a player you hate when playing against you but love in your own side.

    Should be easy to get to Bromley Addicks too.

    We're probably going to need a few nasty buggers in the team next season. The open flowing football of last season was fantastic, but if we're going to survive on our shoe string budget next season I suspect we might have to lower ourselves to fighting dirty on more than a few occasions.
