Apparently he's pretty decent, good solid but he does lack pace.

Apparently he's pretty decent, good solid but he does lack pace.
Isn't it great to just see shit getting done and not having to read comments about waiting periods, an inflated market, no one being available and not wanting to kill a current players development.
Finally a no nonsense defender. Good signing.
If our business was done for the season I'd be disappointed.
Also as an aside.... I think I have finally hopped off the fence and come round to thinking that Kasper Schmeichel is actually a top keeper.
3 signings and it's only 2nd July :faint:
I agree, it’s like we are suddenly having all our gripes, grievance and annoyance cleared up all at once.
At last the club is trying to sort out the things that piss us off every season.
I genuinely believe that something special is happening and we are about to see our rise to the top again.
I cannot wait for the season to start again :scarf:
New contract extension for Chambers.

Legacy of the homegrown ruling I'd think.
Chambers deserves a chance under proper guidance and with seasoned defenders to show him the ropes as does Holding. Wenger would drive even Maldini crazy.
I expect Emery to mix and match our 6 defenders. Hopefully dump the German and convince our perennially injured captain to seek pastures new by January.
Mahrez to City is finally happening. :faint:
Why?
Ozil given no10 shirt.
NQ :bow:

I am happy with that. I actually quite like him, he started to look pretty good towards the end of last season and that says something about him considering the state of our defence.
I think under proper guidance he will develop well.
I think he has a genuine chance of cementing himself as first choice, I'd have in the team over Mustafi who is a abomination of a Centre Back.
We're dangerously low on our homegrown quota having lost Jack, Theo, Ox already and with Welbeck & Ramsey's futures not certain either.
Chambers seems to have enough intelligence & quality to be a decent squad player for us so I'm happy with this.
You have to remember that we bought him on the back of his performances at right back. He was converted to a centre back by Arsene.
Yeah, I've got a lot of time for Chambers - never heard him complain about where he's played, lack of game time, or getting sent out on loan. Just quietly gets on with it.
Easy enough to sort out the homegrown quota with a couple of academy promotions - guys like Nketiah, Nelson and Willock are already hovering around the first team, and we've added Iwobi and AMN to the senior squad in recent years. I don't think we have any real worries there.
Pretty confident Ramsey will sign too - I think a lot of the delays surrounding his new contract are down to him switching agents. Plus at 27, going on 28, this is likely to be his last big contract in his peak years, so he'll probably be negotiating a bit harder than he would have done 4 or 5 years ago...
Ramsey can do one as far as I'm concerned. He is not a 200kpw player. We should not be holding out the entire boat and harbour to keep him. No other team in world football would pay him more than 150.
Always felt like Ramsey would be one of those who would potentially benefit most from a better coach.
Juve have apparently bid 88m for Ronaldo. :lol:
On the one hand pretty happy we're doing our business efficiently this year, but I'd be lying if I didn't say I'm not bothered that top players are completely out of our budget these days, would be good to get one marquee signing if we could.
