NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.
Ospina seems like a very good deal.

Obviously happy to see us signing quality backs who will push the first choice fells all the way. Slight reservation regarding his height though, 1.83 compared to Chesney at 1.96.

I might have been worried about his height if I'd never seen him play, and was just going off stats, but having watched him at the WC I have to say it really didn't jump out at me as an issue - in fact I didn't give it any thought at all until it got mentioned on here? The only thing that really stood out was his level of performance, which looked pretty high (and I was particularly happy to see him claiming crosses confidently, instead of just punching everything out)...
I think agility is the most important thing for a keeper so as long as he can cover his ground well I don't think height is the biggest issue.
Neither Ospina or Navas are that tall and they were both outstanding in the World Cup I thought. Another top signing, what the hell is going on here!
Looks like he has never conceded a goal.
Been linked with Shakhtar Donetsk's 23-year-old playmaker Douglas Costa recently.
Pure bullcrap again from the paps. last thing we need is a playmaker.
