The £170m that selling Sakho and Coutinho generated was integral to the rebuild. Arteta doesn't have that good fortune, but maybe the young players can offer a different route to progress?

They also sold random squad players, young players and some really terrible players that flopped masssively for a lot of money. Just take a look at this list, is either they are false accountings to cheat FFP or their transfer team is just world class.

Ings - 18m
Camacho - 5m
Mignolet - 7m
Kent - 6.5m
Ward - 13m
Solanke - 19m
Stewart - 4m
Sakho - 24m
Ibe - 15m
Allen - 11m
Benteke - 27m

This is seriously fucking nuts. It's hard not to believe there is some kind of conspiracy.

Why do you say that?
You've seen how much value Arsenal has thrown away in both directions in the last 5 years. Football is such an inefficient environment. There is waste everywhere. Pool seem to be one of the few organisations that are run professionally, and they take advantage of the more mom-and-pop ways other organisations are run to punish them. I don't find it that surprising.

I like Dwight McNeil. Clever and skillful player.

Claudius

Greenwood with a really smart goal for United. Direct running into the box at BHA defenders and a low shot past the keeper at the near post.

Klaus

He's a classy player, that one. I'm not sure he'll be elite, but there's no doubt he's going to be a really good footballer.

Claudius

Probably a Rashford quality guy. He's looked good each time I've seen him but, like you, I'm looking for a little something extra. That thing you see when you watch Saka, Foden and others

Claudius

Fucking Fernandes can't stop scoring. Who could've predicted that?

Shady

Fucking linesman. Awful 😆

Claudius

They're making up laws on the fly for United.

Shady

No way Leicester get top 4. Their fans must be experiencing that sinking feeling that we are all too familiar with.

Claudius

Bruno has 5 goals and 3 assists in exactly 700 minutes of Premier League football since he arrived.
Laca has 7 goals in 1500 and Pepe has 6 goals and 3 assists in 1700

People talking about Liverpool selling that shower of shite and then don't want us to sell our own.

IF the forum was consulted then 1 goal Iwobi would be in our front 3.

Hopefully arteta can see the light and get ride of lacazette, guendouzi and other expendables.

Claudius

Bruno is the buy of the season. United would be jostling for position with us if not for him. I'm still shocked that he was allowed to hang out in Portugal as long as he did.

QuincyAbeyie

@G89 Let's do the whole story then. Those who were for selling Iwobi in the summer certainly didn't want Saka or Martinelli to be part of our front 3 at the time seeing as they are surprise options who've proven valuable later. If they hadn't, Iwobi would've been a great loss this season, and I still think he would've started as a CAM while Ceballos was injured.

🙁 Arsenal should've listened to my wish list post for Bruno lol.

Utd have a real chance for top 4. Leicester have a hard run in whereas in comparison Utd have an easy one, Leicester also not playing well and only 3 points ahead but with a game in hand.

Mirth

In some ways it's heartening to know that signing even 1-2 players that are the right fit can transform a team.

Shady

Bruno is their Arshavin.

MistaT

His second goal was class, loved Matic's pass to start it

speedy

This made my day
