there is no context for this. Ramsey is absolutely not a problem.
He has even been good hte last few matches.
On the low, Sanchez is our biggest problem.
Icardi being touted again - latest fictional theory is that he might be looking for a move if Inter miss out on the CL?
I have no faith in us signing any kind of striker any more, but at least this one sounds a little more plausible than talk of Lewandowski or Aubameyang or an aging Ibrahimovich on a million pounds a minute contract, etc...
I think a lot of us are desperate for anyone but Giroud, yeah Giroud is OK but he's not starting quality material, well not if we want to improve.
I agree with you about Lacazette, he's not bad...kind of reminds me of a French Defoe.
yeah, he hasnt been as potent this year without Fekir.
Fekir is someone I think we should look at if/when Sanchez leaves. If he can recover from the ACL, he may be a better fit.
They could entertain, perhaps even encourage interest in players before it has run down...... I'm won't comment on the ethics but I suspect they could have attracted a buyer for Robert Lewandowski a year or two before he went.
They could also put a team together capable of winning the title too as they have done before.....though I appreciate that is easier said than done.....but they do have only one serious contender to focus on.

Arsène Wenger has given Arsenal's supporters the statement signing they have craved with the €50m (£42.5m) purchase of the attacking midfielder Mesut Ozil from Real Madrid, a move that has nearly trebled the club's previous highest outlay on a player. The manager had expressed the confidence that Arsenal's increased financial firepower would permit him to complete a deal for one of the biggest names on the market. At 10.30pm on Monday he could celebrate a coup.
Ozil becomes the third most expensive signing in British football history, behind Fernando Torres, who joined Chelsea from Liverpool for £50m in 2011, and Carlos Tevez, who cost Manchester City £45m. The 24-year-old has agreed a five-year contract, which is worth a basic £150,000 a week, with bonuses on top, having completed a medical earlier in the day in Germany, where he was preparing with his national team for the World Cup qualifier against Austria on Friday.
There was jubilation from Wenger and the Arsenal chief executive Ivan Gazidis, with the latter describing Ozil as a "world-class player, who is one of Europe's brightest young talents". Gazidis also paid tribute to the support of the club's majority shareholder Stan Kroenke who, he said, "wants to see Arsenal winning titles and trophies and has absolute faith and belief in our manager to achieve that".
Mesut Ozil is declared unfit 45 minutes before kick off. And yet he hasn't travelled with the team. Work that one out. Since 2013 absolutely fuck all has changed at Arsenal and Kroenke's real agenda has become known. Meanwhile Wenger stands on a touchline, jubilantly celebrating his latest also-ran triumph.
So which world class players are we signing in the summer lads? I bet they all want to come here.
Goodbye Mesut.

He's gone, Mesut has been making noises in the press for a while now, planting the seeds to his exit, we're going to have a job on our hands convincing him to stay, same with Alexis, I read he went straight for the tunnel whilst the rest of the team clapped the away support. It was obvious it would come to this.
I heard he hadn't travelled at all.
Für eure Sicherheit
He'd love to play for Zidane according to him and has said you don't know what the future holds (not in those exact words but as good as), add in yesterday's weird events and it doesn't look great. Wouldn't be entirely surprised though, what top player would really want to stick around at such an unambitious club?
