Wenget on the imminent arrival of Gabriel Paulista from Valencia:
Chambers left-back, Gabriel right-back, Flamini centre-back and Monreal up front next week."He is a defender, can play on the flanks as well, tall, pacy and strong in the challenges. He has a good chance to adapt to English football. I see in him good potential and he can be a good addition to the squad. It could be done before the draw tomorrow."
Work permit granted, medical passed
'WHEN HE HAS A PLAN, WE BACK HIM, WHEN HE DOESN'T......WE KEEP QUIET'
Yep Guardian confirming that the work permit has been granted.
Good news to all round. Welcome to the club Archangel.
His name is Gabriel, not Paulista. Apparently.
He's passed the medical. Still waiting to hear if that means the deal is off.
Für eure Sicherheit
I've heard some misgivings about his passing. It's probably in comparison to the players we have or Wenfer's supposed 'style of play', but it shouldn't be too much of a worry when all our other defenders (the occasional rashness of Bellerin aside) usually average 90%+ in the pass completion stats.
I assume it's little bit nit-picking unless he turns out to be worse than Smalling and Sakho.
To paraphrase Arnold Schwarzenegger he is one ugly motha fucker. Jesus strikers won't come anywhere near our penalty area when he's playing, purely out of fear.

Campbell has already gone to Villarreal so the deal is as good as done really.
We need to make sure we save every penny we can and another day will save us €20 so shut up and be patient.
