Jan 2016 transfer window

Klaus

I would have killed to have Pato instead of Theo on the end of Özil's passes against Bournemouth.

Sicario

I haven't seen Pato play since he left Milan, has anyone been following his time in Brazil?

He was a quality young striker for Milan but was injured most of the time.

Bryant

The consensus on his time in Brazil is that he's been less injury prone. I think he's been on an upwards trend during his time in Brazil and he would be worth a gamble. He would most likely cost less than your favorite Welbeck.

"And Wenger reportedly wants a piece of that sweet Mahrez pie" 😆

Klaus

I wonder if Ben Arfa would be worthwhile in the summer. Still only 28 and has a magical season in France by most accounts. He's familiar with Premier League too. Maybe we could get a couple great years out of him. At this rate he's going to cost significantly less than Mahrez too.

I'd absolutely love a healthy Ben Arfa. Such an exciting player.

Reckon he could have a Reyes-like impact on our title challenge, if we signed him now and he stayed healthy. With our injury record though, he'd probably break down in a week.

I want Samper, he could develop into a top DLP/DM. Arteta replacement long term.

lorddulaarsenal

Yeah he looks special.

lorddulaarsenal

Will be interesting to see what Wenger does

I recon we'll get two centre mids and a nice surprise for the forward line

One of my favourite player to watch when he was at Newcastle. He has already wasted enough time in his careeer, don't look like fulfilling it anytime soon. Twice the talent Nasri ever had.

Sicario

Ben Afra is a maverick but I would take him on loan for the rest of the season. However, signing mavericks at this time of the season doesn't alway work. Look at Newcastle in Jan 96 when they signed Asprilla from Parma, they were 12 points clear at the time of his signing, only to end up blowing it by May.

Having thought again about Pato, perhaps his potential signing would not be as good one initially imagined.

Rarely has a player gone from South America to Europe to South America back to Europe and done well.

Sanogo to get a recall?

Think I'd rather Ben Arfa than Pato for short term gains.

Pato may come good but I think Ben Arfa could have a quicker and more noticeable impact. Honestly, him and Sanchez wide from Ozil would be a terror for any team.

Ray

Ben Arfa would be a decent buy, Sofiane Boufal too.

If it's true that Isco has submitted a transfer request, we need to go in for him no matter what we need the most. He's the kind of player we'll regret not signing send, and can play on both wings plus AM.

flobaba

Yup. Flog off W.A.C.O. : Welbeck, Alex Chamberlain Oxlade.

In I.S.C.O. : Isco

That is so lame
