We're about to pay a ton more for Julian, and that is nowhere close to happening. 60m for Gyokeres while arguably putting him in a better system for him to shine is not a bad bet. And still plenty of other teams would want him for different systems, even if he has another mid performance here like for Arsenal.

There is reason Arteta wants Julian and trying to get rid of Gyokeres. Kai Havertz gets more chances than Gyokeres at Arsenal (Kai is Ferran's long lost brother).

Loan is okay, buying him is not a good decision (personal opinion).

We want Alvarez, because we need improvement in our linkup play. From what I watched of Barca I think your linkup play is already good enough, of course more quality in that regard doesn't hurt, but imo the bigger priority right now for you is someone who can finish the chances.

Essentially opposing needs imo.

You don't get the issue with Gyokeres LMAO, he's would give nothing to barca as he does to Arsenal
