Protest at the next match when we are 2nd in the league, 2 points ahead of moneybags chavski, with Mesut Ozil our £40mill signing on the pitch? That's going to be a tough sell. Besides, Draxler is 20 years old and is inly starting to break into the national team. £37mill, it's a bit crazy. The fact we're prepared to go to £30mill is crazy enough. I'd rather we just paid the extra £7mill and grab him, but it won't be my head on the block if the potential isn't realised and the money is wasted.

£12.5m .
Never heard of him
He's meant to be good, that Zouma - still one for the future, but they're talking about him like they did Varane...
Down with this sort of thing!Originally Posted by Sterling Archer

If you don’t send this signature to ten people, you will become a Spurs fan.
Don't get me wrong i don't care about Draxler one way or the over, it's just i am sick of seeing deals fall through because we find out that Wenger (not the club but the manager) doesn't want to pay the money to bring the player in. Is a kid of 20 worth 37 million of course not, but to be fair if Wenger thinks the guy is good enough to improve the squad (the criteria for bringing in players) than surely the money shouldn't be an issue.
I think the lack of signings ties into ticket prices?....actually what are we paying for?.....the price we pay for matches might be acceptable if we saw some return of the expenditure in the transfer market which would help us to compete for silverware. Of course Wenger doesn't set the ticket prices, but the point is he shouldn't be deciding a player's value either....it should be up to him to pick the player he wants and let the club do the rest....he concerns himself with things well outside of his remit.
Ozil was bought simply because the fans were pretty much on the verge of mutiny after being pushed too far, i don't think any of us wants to get to that breaking point again before another top quality signing is made.
But to be honest if we sign a striker on loan tomorrow than i will be satisfied in the short term, but i just think what's going on in this guy's head if you see so much in this kid and think you can turn him into a world class striker like Thierry Henry than why hesistate about the cost when we can clearly afford it?.
careful now!
Won't be Wenger's either, I reckon they'll blame the fans.

£38m ?
This I agree with. Wenger shouldn't have so much power in this area. But do we have anyone else at the club who is competent to make these decisions? Placing a value on a player is not the same as negotiating for sponsorship deals or agreeing loan rates. I'm not saying leave it all with Wenger, I'm saying let's get somebody in to assist him. We've all seen the difference Bould made to the defence. Maybe the best signing we could make is a football guy who could deal with the transfers and contracts. Now we have the potential to be spending cash every year it's worth getting the right team in place to make the right decisions....the point is he shouldn't be deciding a player's value either....it should be up to him to pick the player he wants and let the club do the rest....he concerns himself with things well outside of his remit.
