No idea where Havertz plays tbf.. what a bizzare buy.

Arsene Wenger, the only football manager that got paid 8 million quid to do nothing but sit on his arse..
It feels like Arteta's taking a big punt on this oneOriginally Posted by fakeyank
It wouldn't be the first time he's bought someone and it's not worked out - Taveres, Lokonga, Vieira - and as far as I'm concerned Zinchenko, although Arteta would no doubt disagree with me on that - but this one is more money and a high-profile player from a rival club which is desperate to sell
I doubt a single Arsenal fan is dancing in the streets over this signing - the pressure will be on for this to work
Fabio Vieira was the equivalent of me asking my brother to get me a darts board for Christmas when we were in lockdown, it was one of those impulse things (couldn’t think of anything and I do like to play darts in the pub every now and again even though I can’t play for shit so presumably was looking to get some practice in). He got me it, but it’s never been used and really this feels the same with Vieira. Like something that seemed a good idea at the time, but will invariably gather dust somewhere.
You can tell there’s some technical ability there but you need to have some degree of physicality in the premier league…and he looks anaemic and malnourished.
The best thing we can do is tempt Porto to buy him back
Taveres and Lokonga do look to be busts...I think Lokonga has something but he won't fulfil anything here.
Zinchenko is a success by Arteta's measure. He wasn't the gamble, it was the system change and our best season justifies it. Completely understand and agree on Zinchenko, personally, though.
Viera has another season. Been very disappointing but hopefully he's more Grealish first season than...someone who didn't improve after their first season, I guess.
65m is an obscene number for a gamble though. Havertz has to be playing that MF role, beside Odegaard with Partey/A.N.Other behind.
Can't make any sense of it otherwise.
Arteta has said in the past 2 DMs isn't a system he wants to play and he moved away from it this season past. Maybe this is the final phase of the system transition??
Ornstein says we've bid £100million+£5 million add ons for Rice.
If he's going to fill the void left by Paddy then it's almost a free transfer. Otherwise it's the biggest waste of money since the last guy who bought an electric car. Nothing in between.
Für eure Sicherheit
As much as I want Rice, If West Ham don’t accept that then it’s time to walk away.
If West Ham need the cash that much, that motivates me more to say we shouldn’t give it to them. And unlike Chelsea I don’t even dislike the Ammers
Rejected due to payment terms. Can you fucking believe it. I would move on, he isn't worth it.Ornstein says we've bid £100million+£5 million add ons for Rice.
Sullivan is worse than that cunt Levi
we def need to walk away now - time for Plan B, as per January, where we switch from buying one overpriced player to three very useful VFM signings
