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.

Just because you'll have to change your Forum name!!!!
That's just it though the fee was only so high to appease us and get us off Wengers' back. The actual fee makes no sense. How on earth did it get to 42m?
I'm just curious how it is that 32m for Higuain is considered too much and yet on transfer deadline day it's a case of shut up and take my money.
It's a panic buy. We could have got 2 world class players 20m players but it seems like AW has cracked under the pressure.
I thought the whole point of waiting was to get better deals? As good as Ozil is he isn't a 42m player. 30m tops but certainly not 42m.
It's a panic buy and will distract us from the other shite signings AW will make today. Demba Ba on loan? Yippee I guess. I am so glad we waited to final day to get Ba on loan just awesome!

Özil is better than any player in the PL so fuck the price. Just wait and watch him raping all those overrated teams and you will stop moaning.. belive me

We might spend 40 mill on one of the worlds best midfielders and you whinging like a girl , ffs .
He destroyed the England midfield in the World Cup and his value will only increase in this crazy market . No it doesnt make up for the numerous errors made by Wenger by a long way but atleast it is a world class player
What a fucking world class bit of business! I am genuinely buzzing about this. This is exactly what we've been calling on the club to do and still there are people fucking moaning. 200k a week? We've easily saved that and then some on wages through the utter dross we've got rid of this window. Fat boy arshavin and the forehead between must of been about 170k a week, I'd take ozil over those two jokers any day of the week. Ozil will bring in far more revenue to the club through merchandising and renewed interest in club level tickets then having 4 Bendtner's stinking out the place will ever manage.
Now I'm hearing the usual mob of Arsenal haters are trotting out guff about him not being the 'type' of player we need. Anyone who watched us in the big games last season knows we were lacking a top quality attacking spark. Cazorla is class but seemed to fade at times last season, wilshere is injury plagued and lacking end product at this stage of his career.
I'd still like to see a striker come in and if we can get both of those deals done then I'm a happy camper
