Interesting to know the politics behind this purchase, i read earlier he was targetted by the new head of recruitment that was just brought into the club. If so i wonder what Wenger really feels about it :rubchin:

To use a well used phrase, changed slightly!
Who in the name of Greek buggery is Konstantinos Mavrapanos?.
I fucking give up.

Understand #afc interest in 20-year-old centre-back Konstantinos Mavropanos originally reported in Greece is genuine. Negotiations ongoing but fee likely to be in region of £2.2m. Not an immediate first-team addition. Loan to Werder Bremen more likely.

I can hear the North Bank singing the song for this guy already!

Ohhhh! Konstantinos Mavropanos
He comes from PAS Giannina
But he was born in Argentina!!!! :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf:
You heard it here first! :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf:

THIS (and obviously the Europa League) is why we left Highbury. Shoulder to shoulder with Europe's elite. How in fuck did we snatch this dude out from under the noses of Madrid, Bayern, PSG and the BarcaWhores? :shock:

Has to go down as one of Wenger's greatest signings. 8)

This time last year, we signed that child who played for a school team or something and worked in a car plant. This year, we've signed a bloke who is only known by his family and neighbours. We bought better players than this when we played in the park in bloody Plumstead.
