ALL Transfer talk - merged thread

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

That's it, I'm done with football, pool have just signed a goalkeeper for 67 million :?
the prices are only going up in the next three weeks.

it makes our purchases look pretty conservative - which is how it should be. lets let City, United, Liverpool and the chavs overpay while we manage our talent and our books.

He is isn't he? Is he? I dunno. :lol:

But I know the Mousers have nothing to worry about. The Klipp Kloppity Klown is a tactical genius after all and losing 6 out of 7 finals is just bad luck or Maggie Thatcher's fault or something. :roll: :lol:

They are electric when they get it right but people forget how often that doesn’t happen. They were six points off United, finished behind Spurs and amassed 75 points which in this day and age isn’t getting you within sight of a title even without city racking up 100.

Plus Salah is highly unlikely to match last seasons levels. Especially now that everybody knows that he is so vulnerable to judo throws.

Given the money Klippity has spent ,is it time that pulling funny faces and being "passionate " on the touchline isn't enough?

I wonder whether Dick has managed to work in a bit of judo training for our defence :lol:

I'm loving the rumour about helmet head going back to the Chavs - that would be funny especially if we managed to get our money back or even make a profit :lol:

After spending 170million (so far) I'd say if he doesn't win the league he'll be gone tbh. :D

When did Brazil start producing more world class goalkeepers than forwards?

Never understood why keepers were so cheap? they can influence a team more than any outfield player. A forward could score 4 goals, but if your keeper lets in 5, game is lost. It sounds simple but that is football.

I havent seen much of this allison guy playing so I dont know how good he is, but if he is classed as better than ederson he must be a great keeper cos ederson is a top keeper
