The Summer 2014 TRANSFER THREAD

[kiwomya]

Who didn't see this coming - despite Wenger trying to kid us he was still after a couple more players? He thinks he can get away with Chmabers and Monreal as cover at CB (ala Sagna) and Flamini/Diaby as the alternative DM. In Wenger's mind we don't need any further strengthening - although if a real bargain (see what I unintentionally did there? ) comes up he may be tempted to go for it.

He hasn't said we won't sign anyone else.

Man United start the season having lost Evra, Ferdinand and Vidic and have replaced them with an injured boy from Southampton. There is still weeks left of the transfer window.

I'm not in the least interested in what state manure or any other club find themselves...What I am interested in is the players/squad we have - that will allow us to seriously and realistically challenge for the Prem Title this season...and it seems that whilst wenger has signed atop player in Alexis Sanchez - and a potential 'future' defender in Chambers - he still has not attended to the flaws which saw us crash and burn last season - regardless of excuses for injuries we suffered last season - he should know that injuries do and will occur...AND that we still need a World Class Striker , a CB and a DMF...

...and repeat every year

[Arsenal Till I Die]

Just when the dreams of Argentina's unsung hero Cavani would sign for £51m on a wage of 300k were gaining momentum they are snatched away horribly.

Maybe if Messi didn't get all the service and the likes of Di Maria passed more to the Uruguayan attack then the dream may have happened? Ain't that right OBG?

Seems we're close to signing the Bloke from Grease.

What!? John Travolta!???

Hope he is quick



(Greased Lightening perhaps)

Tell me more, tell me more, is he like Stephen Carr?

Sorry

to not have signed a centre half this week is plain stupid. BFG won't feature, Kos may be fit to play but if he breaks down into saturday's match which knowing our luck he will, then we are screwed.

Great signing Sanchez, Chamber and Ospina but Wenger has missed the obvious yet again and failed to address our shortcomings which cost us time and again. He had to sign an established centre half this week imo, those saying the transfer window is still open yeah it is but why go into a the leage opener on Saturday we the weakest possible defenc we could. TV5 should have stayed at least till our BFG was ready.

Defensive midfielder won't be signed now Arteta is captain.

Not impressed that Wenger has failed to see the obvious yet again.

Vermaelen was already injured. Him staying or going made no difference to tomorrow's selection.

Having Debuchy, Kos & Gibbs as three of the back four isn't really the weakest defence we could put out though.

[Theoperator]

Assume that the back 4 +GK will be as per Citeh last weekend.

BFG may well be fit and start or possibly be on the bench, and I guess Monreal will be there too.

I would be very surprised if we dont get a DM/CB in to replace TV5 in the next 2 weeks, we are too lightweight still there.

It's absolutely cringeworthy watching you weasel in your excuses and going out of your way to defend Wenger.

excuses. Is what I said wrong?

Bit unfair mate- best post that IF no one comes but the end of August, dont see him going "Out of the way" on this one, just seems to be stating the obvious.

He trolls my posts and does the same to a couple of others. Nice guy by all accounts.

I have better things to do than 'troll' your posts. You talk utter bile mixed in with your usual Wenger rimming, it's hard not to point it out.

Theoperator, pay a bit closer attention to his posts. Never a single criticism of Wenger, goes to all lengths to deflect negative attention away from him. Even the legend himself Babatunde used to make a fool out of this guy. Good ol days.
