Midfield we're a bit buggered as Wenger will see Xhaka as a mainstay

Finally ffs. Another pretty meh signings by one of our rivals in my view.
Yeah I don't get the big deal with him either. Fabinho is so obviously a much better player. Bakayoko is a strange Matic replacement all things considered.
Physical player but looks clumsy on the ball
Yep, yep. I guess he works his ass off on the field though, which is a quality that Conte treasures.

Isn't Jorge Mendes Fabinho's agent? Makes sense as to why we aren't in for him if that's the case.
Don't get the Bakayoko hype either. He has a big engine but looks limited on the ball.
AW failed to trigger the release clauses for both Draxler & Mata despite making bids for both and still looked to negotiate below their clauses. IIRC about the only release clause he has 'met' as a conscious effort was Suarez.
Fuck release clauses. The Suarez shenanigans shows exactly how much they're worth.
I make it 2-0 to the doubters.
I don't rate Lukaku the slightest, but his debut for Man United happens on August 11, not in a pointless preseason game.
Whether or not it happened on his debut wasn't really the focus of my ridicule. Anyway, keep out of my point scoring affairs Klaus, this is between me and Daz.
Sorry, sorry.

Joe Hart to have medical at West Ham tomorrow. One year loan with an option to buy. City to pay some of his wages.
I reckon Wilshere is even more likely to go there now, him and Hart are very good mates and West Ham are the perfect club for Wilshere. They're made for each other.

Isn't Jack a childhood Hammers fan?

Get fucked goon....Lukaku is just lulling you into a false sense of security! Klaus is right of course. The real point scoring shall begin in August (and tgus should absolutely not be read as trying to shift the goalposts!).

His Dad is but Jack's been at Arsenal since he was 7 so he's a proper Arsenal fan.
Milan is reportedly making a move on Renato Sanches. The same kind of loan deal like James, 2 year loan with option to buy at the end.
Milan making a lot of strong moves. Be nice to see Serie A a little more competitive next season. Hopefully Napoli can push on too.
Talks of PSG considering Neymar's release clause.....that would lead to some craziness.
