All this Gunner news would've been way better served had they not just lost to a bottom table side

Surprised that Ozil resigned but after seeing how much he's making now I get it

It's a new era in North London it seems...

wow, Obama's really at Arsenal.

LMAO is a nice collective but will they still be Arshambles though?

Safest bet in Vegas

If their MF and backline stays the same then it sure is

Kind of like a lesser 'Pool,glorious attack and not much resistance behind them

 

[josh4523]

we are still arshambles until we sort out our defense starting from DM. Yesterday once again shows how desperately we need reinforcements in our backline, in particular, our CB positions. Even if its evans, I hope sven makes something happen today because we'll just be Liverpool -2.0. Obama is a great and surprising signing, he dosnt help our most glaring needs but at the very least its a world class forward that will drag defenders with him while creating space for his team mates. I really hope wenger plays both laca and obama together and I think this will only help laca. Also shows top talent is still willing to come here even in the state we are in, I think it would be helpful when trying to convince good defenders to come here with that attack. /COYG

Edit: and mesut resigning

oh man, today is the day we see if griez dips, i hope not as an atleti fan. I’m hoping we get ander as a gabi replacement this summer. maybe we can get some money for gaitan and carrasco too.

Lucas needed a change of scenery, not sure Tottenham is the answer though. Personally, I thought Liverpool should have gambled on him.

 

[sonoftony]

Lucas to Spurs was a shock. Wasn't expecting that one

 

[sneaksoy]

Slimani to Newcastle is a very intriguing move for the rest of the year. Has the talent to change games for them, definite upgrade over Joselu

 

[PRIME]

United was interested, Liverpool interested, an I think I read somewhere that other french clubs were interested..

Dude went to Tottenham for $$$ and the London lifestyle.

Not mad at it, but he had better options

 

[Verde Shuttles]

Pierre Bourne global now

 

[tomdiginson]

He is an idiot if true. You chose guaranteed playing time to develop your career for more money and lack of playing time due to competition at your position at a club stacked with young talent.

 

[rolaholic]

A little skeptical over Spurs moving for Lucas given their poor track record of signing forwards as of late but I guess dude needs playing time somewhere desperately if he wants to go to Russia in the summer and he should be getting a lot at Spurs

 

[Verde Shuttles]

Never looked at Lucas to be special anything

 

[rolaholic]

Hopefully the trend keeps up,it can only help with 3 Lions youth development

 

[d nice]

Auba is a great signing, but it's dampened my mood with the way we lost yesterday and the glaring need to bring in defensive reinforcements. I know you can't fix a squad in one window, but what would be the point of having a great attack like this, but not have a solid defense and a competent MF? It's hustling backwards.

 

[Black Lotus]

Arsenal needs better mids, defense, keeper, and a better manager

 

[tomdiginson]

Never looked at Lucas to be special anything

I felt he was a bit overhyped, but he does show glimmers of having that little special thing here and there. At the very least I think he could be a good complimentary piece to add to a squad that is good everywhere else.

Ozil

LMAO

COYG!

Ozil

COYG!

Yet y'all still will be washed by the bottom table teams. All this energy just to try to emulate Liverpool. Sit down.

That'd be a club record fee for a stopgap days after Pep claimed the club had financial constraints...
