Aubameyang, Wan-Bissaka and a top manager would probably turn them into title challengers!

About that top manager part...

Godin I wouldn’t have minded, wage demands would have been an issue though.

Hummels is finished, we would have been stuck with another veteran player on huge wages who isn’t performing.

Im shocked Dortmund have bought him, Bayern must be laughing their heads off at them in the boardroom!

As MO said, if we were selling to sign the same level of player fine, but to sell a guy who scores a hatful and then sign a player who is nowhere near that level and doesn't score a lot is madness.

This club has done stranger things though, so don't put it past them, we've sold to our rivals numerous times, something other big clubs never seem to do.

Pretty much, but the 72 million was just pulled out of the air and then picked up by a few, he never said he wanted that, he said he didn't know how much he was worth.

And it's 'goner' btw ;)

Selling to a rival would be crazy, if we did sell we'd need a lot of money and somebody top notch to lined up to replace him, not Zaha.

I'm sure Arsenal would never do anything so stupid...

Meanwhile shady Gazidis has negotiated for Milan to sit out the Europa as ‘punishment’ freeing them up to push for a top four spot without distraction.

Sky are reporting that we are expected to make an offer for Zaha.

10m and a pack of Monster Munch?

Ornstein said this yesterday.

Palace will want £80m, we can't afford it.
