Exciting and Wenger are two words that don't go in the same sentence.
Looks a very tidy finisher.Quote:

Doesn't look too concrete based on this though:

One of our biggest problems last year was a horrible lack of fluidity in our midfield, in too many games we looked a mess with no cohesion to our play. Hopefully someone like Xhaka can resolve that, someone to distribute the ball and keep the ball moving around the team, and put his foot in when needs be. When you look at Deeney and even Mahrez being quoted at £40m + after one great season, Xhaka's price makes sense in this market. Everyone knows the clubs over here are cash rich and will not sell cheaply.Quote:

Utd have been fairly active but the Pogba thing is dragging on and on and is indicative of the pace so far in this window. And Spuds have got in a couple of players but relatively quiet too.
Once Santi went out injured it was a problem. Playing Ramsey or Flamini in middle just made it worse. But once we bought in Elneny to play alongside Coquelin we looked a lot better and fluidity came back. I think we could have solved that particular problem internally without Xhaka. Elneny is smart and intelligent with his distribution. Was really impressed with how he slotted in. It all depends on how Wenger intends to use Ramsey and Wilshere. I fear we could be looking at the same problem with distribution if Xhaka is given the DM role with Ramsey allowed to play as CM. If play breaks down at the feet of one player then we’re back at square one.Quote:

I guess Xhaka is a good for the numbers in case have injuries but overall I can’t see him being a game changer just yet. Will be interesting seeing him play.
He actually looks like quite good, seems to be very agile and has great foot work, some really composed finishing too. Difficult to completely judge of course from a YouTube compilation but...sign him up.Quote:

So we're buying Yedder, Icardi, Mahrez, Lacazette and Higuain? Brilliant.
Wenger :bow:Quote:
