    Took guts for that boy to ski off the end of a cliff. More guts than some would ever muster. Never understood why that guy was ridiculed by so many fat people on their couches.

    You are accusing me of being indignant? When that’s your default settting

    But No not defensive or indignant just lacking in patience

    Apparently our CL run earned the club over £99m - should come in handy in the transfer window

    Fantastic! That will hopefully boost the transfer budget.

    And wrong. Couldn't back up your silly claim but you can't just back off and leave it.

    Sounds like Gyökeres could be our top target this summer.

    Far from convinced that his form in the Portuguese league means an instant impact over here, however he’s reported to be valued at 60m which for a striker who could potentially score a lot of goals is worth a punt.

    But you’re wrong to worry about that because of Jamie Vardy apparently

    That's why I'd like two strikers to come in, it gives competition from the start and more options

    Pretty much every player is a punt of some kind (no pun intended), it's no different from Arteta buying Merino and Cala (neither of whom are particularly good in their intended positions IMO) except while he gambles on numerous people for DM and LB, Arteta seems to have a Goldilocks approach to strikers (which btw led to us not getting Isak two years ago for relative peanuts)

    It's particularly weird when you consider he thinks Jesus is good enough as a striker, despite the obvious drawback of his hardly ever being in the right place, plus not being able to hit a barn door from three feet
