    IMO the club always knew they were going to sign players, they just wanted to do everything last minute, as has been the habit especially in January.

    The thing is, they should have realised early on, when Liverpool, Man U and Chelsea wasted no time, that this would be a different kind of January.(you need to also consider that the pause due to the World Cup would have allowed rivals to do their homework better)

    Our dithering cost us our first choice, but yeah we have to move on and learn from it.

    Reading between the lines, Trossard basically wanted out from Brighton and worked to force the move, it happens sometimes and doesn't mean he's fundamentally difficult to deal with.

    Hope he gets some time against Man Ure on Sunday.

    Linked with a loan move for Eduardo Camavinga.

    Decent if true.

    Camavinga would be amazing backup for Xhaka
    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.

    Good piece of business Trossard.

    Technical, good finisher, quick feet
    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.

    We can agree on this.

    Offered more money and stole him from Spurs in 24 hrs, seems we might be learning after all...

    I also like what Arteta says about needing to consider players for what they can bring immediately too.
