SUMMER TRANSFERS - Your thoughts on who did and did not sign

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.

Can't believe some people still think we'll sign Rooney. Laughed when I heard him and suarez links for first time. Have to admit I did think we might get higuain at one ooint though

You have to look at these rumours in context starting with who is posting them :roll:

Arsène Wenger is looking for versatility when he searches the transfer market for "the right additions" to his Arsenal squad. :lol:

http://www.arsenal.com/news/news-archiv ... n-signings
That is the key word - the right additions," he said. "That is what I work at - the right additions. It is not just about additions.
If you look at the players, you see Rosicky, Cazorla, Ramsey, Wilshere… so to find better players you have to travel
Attitude and focus [are also important], the mental aspect in the modern game is vital.

:lol:
Are you sure - I have it on good authority that it is actually the famous Plovdiv Nedelev from Botev Todor and he's actually the Bulgarian Andre Santos and quite the pants man.

What do Suarez, Rooney, Di Maria, Benzema, Fellaini, Begovic and Casillas have all in common? They are not coming to the damn Arsenal!!!

To be fair - if memory serves - only Suarez has been officially mentioned whereas all of the others were press conjecture. Or am i mistaken (because I know this forum is the place to go t find out.... 8) ).

One last time. We will sign another African teenager, a moderately useful player from the French second division and someone from Crystal Palace. Should I just lock this fucker down now? :roll:

This window reminds me of an Eddy Murphy stand up routine in the 80s when he was funny. He was talking about girlfriends who won't have sex for ages and the desperate bloke thinking the sex is amazing when she eventually relents. He said it was like giving a starving man crackers. They are going to taste amazing at first but sooner or later you are going to realise its just crackers.

4 days to go before we are fed "special" crackers.

We're now linked with Ajax central defender Toby Alderweireld, Belgian 24 years old national team player according to ad.nl. Marc Overmars would settle 7,5m fee for the player. Come on Marc, for the old times sake give him to us for free!!!!!!!

I remember seeing him playing for Ajax couple of times and he seems to be quite decent defender. So this will do for me if this happens, but obviously it won't. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

Never heard of him and based on the fact I haven't seen his name linked with a top club ever I can only presume he is absolutely 'super quality'

Excactly! And that is why he's been linked to us :D

He's been linked to Norwich, Atletico Madrid and Spartak Moscow during the summer, so absolutely "super quality".
