Looks like we're trying to build a squad rather than assuming Pepe, Auba and Laca will play 38 league games and 10+ Europa games.

It's a loan too, so no long-term problems if it doesn't work out.

Sensible signing for me.

This is it exactly. He was a bit overrated before he went to Barca but he's still well good enough to be very useful for us. Far better than Ozil and Mhki so thats good enough for me. Plugging gaps with loans like this sure beats plugging them with Lichtsteiners.

I'm starting to get anxiety about the Aubameyang to United rumours.

No fucking chance.

Have you seen Aubameyang in pre-season? He looks like a high-performance athlete from another planet. I'd be miserable if this came to pass.

So somebody please give me our front 6 - first 11 and 2nd 11. Any idea how it shapes up and who loses out other than ESR?

Emery didnt want let Nketiah go on loan but now everything has changed. It's weird as well.

How reliable is the Lequipe journalist anyone knows?

He was spot on with the Lacazette story when we got him. Spot on with Kos I think. It's all I know.

Lol then its fucking done, he is not reporting this as rumour he is reporting as done I believe.

Arsenal are not signing Coutinho. They are not in for him and never were. They are looking actively for a centre back before Thursday’s transfer deadline.

Pfiu?

If this is true we're blacklisting L'equipe and Clrnc.

Craziest transfer window since the 2011 trolley dash.

Or we're committing to a 1 striker system and rotating auba and laca

Team would be

————-Leno
Bellerin- Sokratis-Upamecano-Tierney
—————-Xhaka
———-Ceballos—coutinho
—-Pepe —-Lacazette—-Aubameyang

I mean the suggestion when we were first linked was they'd wan't something approaching a years worth of the fee they're paying Liverpool, which I think was £25m...

I assume that would be bullshit, but even a 10m loan fee plus what I assume would be substantial wages would cost us in excess of 20m.

Hopefully it is nonsense. This is more of a 'Woodward' rather than 'outsmarting the market'.

All hail Laurens!

Barcelona reportedly offered Premier League clubs the option to bring him in for the season for a fee of between £20 and £25 million which would include a further option to buy.

Coutinho is refusing to leave the Nou Camp in a loan deal and would instead prefer to leave permanently, should he have to.

£27m?! We can buy a whole Saliba for that. No thanks, sir

Sicario

What the fuck is going on.

We’re going have an interesting next 50 hours lads.
