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.
Some guy reporting for sky outside the colney stated that it is too early to announce a fee for the ozil deal cos the clubs haven't quite agreed a deal

Likewise - I certainly wouldn't complain if we signed Ozil because he's the type of player that the top 3 clubs are dreaming of attracting there and is sheer class. I think it's safe to say he's the type of signing everyone would get wet thinking about him playing and frankly for all our 'stability' our lack of signings has understandably harboured little excitement amongst the fans.
But I'd still judge this window as a failure because we've not strengthened the areas we need to and we're absolutely not going to win the league if we play Szczesny in goal and Giroud as a lone striker.
According to justin AFC that means you lads are not real fans
Firstly last night was a drunk rant. I had a lot of beer celebrating our win and possibly signing Ozil. I didn't mean to say that anybody wasn't a real fan, it just some people and I am not saying on this forum, are never impressed. Ozil is the big name we have been crying out for and with Jack's fitness maybe he is a player we do need, amongst others. I am not getting too excited but I certinly have not seen Arsene show this much ambition in a long time and maybe he finally listened to the fans and instead of signing somebody who isn't even born yet, he realises that we have lost a lot of big name players and now it time to bring in a big name for a change. Ozil, a decent defender, back up for Giroud (Demba Ba perhaps), and who knows maybe even a winger and I would be over the moon tonight.

Still very much up in the air then, I was right to be cautious
