Sounds like a normal summer at Arsenal really.
So what do we all think about Zaha then?
Presuming by some miracle, that this transfer actually comes off
I wouldn't mind him here personally as he actually has in spades certain attributes that most of our players lack - agility, speed, hunger, desire, etc.
The metro are reporting that we have offered Palace £40m plus Jenkinson, Chambers & Elneny

As a player he ticks a lot of boxes - quick, strong, home-grown, PL-ready winger, etc.
And if we can get him with that deal then f--king A!
I wouldn't break the bank for him with a cash-only deal though, if that's what Palace are pushing for. He's not an £80-100m player, he'd be coming in on high wages, and that combined with his age profile would mean that we could end up saddled with another player that we can't shift if he doesn't work out.
Even if we could comfortably afford to buy him outright, we should avoid that kind of deal as a matter of policy from now on.
I agree, but the fact is Chambers is currently unused and he doesn't seem to be part of Emery's plans, so we can't really see him as anything other than an expense.
(Plus without Chambers in there, that package becomes a lot less appealing!)
Honestly have no idea how we're going to shift Mustafi - I think we're getting to the point where might have to just drive him out into the woods and leave him there?
Or maybe we could leave him outside the Emirates with a bike-lock on him? He'll probably be stolen inside 2 minutes...
