Is anyone else feeling frustrated right now with their team selection? With all the different transfers in and out, I feel like it isn't worth building a team yet. Some players I pick end up leaving the league altogether, while potential additions haven't been confirmed yet.
I know I'll never be contented with my team selection until the deadline as passed, so I'm not completely worried even though I've not checked since the last time to even try any new selection, by the end of this week or early next week I'll start looking at my choices all over again, I believe there are still a couple of transfers that could easily influence my team, and Vinicius is easily one of them.
The only big question I'm still unsure about is if I'll be starting with Haaland or not, I'd rather have a chunk of my budget tied down with him simply because it's usually to move from Haaland to spread the budget across multiple other positions than otherwise, If Saka and Palmer aren't going to be on my team to start with then having Haaland is a no brainer.
They need a LW, that's for sure. I just don't think they need Vinicius.
Saka is world class, no doubt about that. Arsenal is a team with perfect balance at the moment - they won the title without Saka and with Trossard/Martinelli rotating on the left wing.
I'd rather bring a player like Barcola than Vinicius - Vini is a huge financial gamble. Nobody is doubting his talent, title winning teams are built around a little bit more than talent though.
Personally, I would prefer Vini over Barcola for Arsenal, they already have too many Barcola-esque caliber of players, I won't consider Barcola a major upgrade to the Trossard/Martinelli or their new signing Tzolis who seemed like a decent player, but Vini is on a completely different level and does raises the bar higher imo.
