Summer Transfer Misery 2017/18

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

114 mill? Bite their arm off. Coutinho's good, but nowhere near that good. They can get two great players in for that price. What about Alexis? He'd be lethal there.

How come they are attracting 114 mill bids though? Haven't they let Coutinho run his contract down? Seems to me they aren't in the same ideal position Wenger has achieved with our star players. Fools.

Supposedly "only" £80m up front with the rest in add ons, including him winning the Ballon D'Or which makes it considerably less appealing, especially with this summer of madness.

Plus we're seemingly only interested in two players in Keita and Van Dijk (though we have been linked with Draxler this week).

Wenger is a total, utter cock!

Arsenal defender Gabriel has joined La Liga outfit Valencia for £11million after just two seasons at the Emirates Stadium

The Brazilian, who has put pen to paper on a five-year contract in Spain, joined Arsenal from Villarreal for £15m in 2015 but has failed to hold down a regular place for the Premier League outfit.

He turned out 64 times over the course of the two seasons, but was often used as back-up by Arsene Wenger.

Good guy, always tried, not top tier and prone to regular catastrophic mistakes (so he fit in perfectly) and will be best remembered for standing up to that twat Costa.

Gabriel was too erratic to ever be classed as reliable. He had some impressive games though, his aggression was always great to see. Couldn't speak English at all by the sounds of it and was never settled in this country.

Ironic that we sell a player we weren't even looking to offload, most likely because those we were trying to offload noone is willing to pay for.

Gabriel was one of those Wenger buys, the cheap unknown who has a 2% chance of coming good, didn't work out, stats let us down, better luck next time.

Also Elneny can play there.

Yep, was given English regular lessons but still couldn't say good morning. I wouldn't be surprised if the guy could barely read in Portuguese.
He's just one that didn't work out. Didn't cost much, no big drama.

Here's a particularly vile and nasty rumour.

ARSENAL are reportedly stepping up their interest in Chelsea flop Juan Cuadrado after missing out on Thomas Lemar.

Calcio Mercato claims Arsene Wenger is keen on bringing Juventus winger Cuadrado back to the Premier League despite the Colombian enduring a dismal six months while playing at Stamford Bridge.

His speciality is running fast in a straight line until he bumps into something and falls over. Maybe we are interested after all.

Isn't he a stat DNA player......a modern tool which Wenger is reported to be sceptical about.

I hear murmurings that we are open to selling Mustafi.. WTF is up with that? We have just the right number of CB's. Why would the deluded donkey even think about selling him this late in the window?!! What a fucking tool.. just fuck off from the club!

You're throwing tantrums over "murmurings"?
