Summer Transfer Misery 2017/18

[Niall_Quinn]

Pray Lemar has sense to turn down the contract. Reluctant to offer Sanchez a contract worth around £60m over 3 to 4 years but willing to spend £90m on some kid with one good season under his belt plus wages that will probably most likely be around the £200k mark?

What fucking idiots. This can't be true.

It's as if some sort of money laundering deal is going on, using the transfer window as cover.

Lemar is currently with France. And Dechamps has said no players will be allowed to leave the camp for transfer negotiations. Doesn't Dechamps hate Wenger?

Just listen to yourself.

Think about it. Supposedly we were reluctant to offer Sanchez a massive pay rise when he was prepared to negotiate. Now we're willing to spend £90m on some kid from Monaco, plus wages? Has to be bullshit.

Plus, Wenger shouldn't be given another penny spend. He should be sacked and that money should be left for someone else to use. The guy has no idea what he's doing.

Stinks of desperation. 100m euros FFS, at least players like Pogba and Lukaku had an established pedigree.

Some stupid cunt is commenting on the Arsenal situation on Sky right now. Apparently or fans and Alexis are suffering from disenfranchisement. I think he means disenchantment and so do the hosts, because they are really struggling not to laugh.

I reckon it's BS, probably to make it look as if we tried (just like the Mbappe nonsense earlier in the summer) but if by some miracle it isn't then:

a) He's not a replacement for Alexis, he's relatively unproven, has 1 decent year behind him and doesn't seem to be a goalscorer, so we've gone back to where we were in that we're now short of a 2nd player who can get us goals when we need them
b) 92 million are we being serious? If we'd tried earlier in the window we'd have got him for a fraction of the cost, we must have a bunch of amateurs dealing with transfers

Either way it's been a disastrous window and this does nothing to resolve that, hopefully there will be a massive backlash after this.

I'll laugh if they spend the 92 mill and then the Alexis deal falls through. Would serve them right and the fans would accidentally get something out of this window.

Unfortunately it's inevitable we'll end up suffering from disenfranchisementism.

Simon Jordan..former Crystal Palace chairman......There is some chemical enhancement going on behind his reasoning methinks.

It is desperation in the same way Barca signing Ousmane Dembele was

Anyway it's not likely to happen so need to worry about it

Pretty much, panic buying at it's finest, sell your star player and replace him with some unproven kid for 1 1/2 times the price. You couldn't make it up, once again wasting our resources on players who aren't worth a fraction of that (Xhaka and Mustafi last summer of course).

The club probably think will stop the backlash, it shouldn't though losing a guy who scores 25+ goals a season and replacing him with a kid is no conselation at all. Won't be far off from breakeven even after all this ironically.
