Deadline Day thread (Arsenal + Non Arsenal)

Never thought I’d see the day United would lose out to Spurs.

Happy enough with Luiz and Tierney. At least we’ll be able to pass out the back.

So what would be the purpose at this stage of entertaining offers for Iwobi?

jones

Shame about Dybala hes class but very difficult to accommodate

Cant see him go there still, expect this to fall through

Don't like Luiz for his antics but willing to let bygones be bygones. Also he's an improvement on crocked Kos

Whether he turns out to be a good signing or bench player we're 100% weakening Chelsea, they lost two centre halves and got none. And for 8m too 😆

Musti and iwobi out, dayot me say daaaayot in

Or Iwobi for Zaha - do it for Doolsie. Ricky got his man why can’t Dools

Luiz is a great signing we needed someone good on the ball, older and with prem experience. It's a low fee for a solid buy.

Rugani I'm no sure about, I feel like he's failed potential probably on relatively high wages and from a big club. The total cost of the deal will probably be very high for what were pretty sure will be a player who's never going to be good enough. I'd rather we tried to get Upamecano in 6 months or a year.

Only a 2 year deal, that's good. Also 8 milion is nothing. Basically we got Kos out and Luiz in for almost the same money.

Oh well. Can't have everything you want in life I suppose.

Let's hope he doesn't cost us goals galore and go back to Chelsea as a technical director.

Or do a keita style deal. Overpay a little bit now and lock him down for next season, ala saliba. Defenders of this dimension don't grow on trees

I mean I get the need to feel like we got a good deal post Kos, but... newsflash: Kos was not the defender we needed to replace this summer. This was a desperate bit of business. Don’t see us being any better for it.

Straw clutching has turned into a national sport.

Signing Luiz would suck.

Selling Iwobi would also suck.

Spurs signing Dybala would perhaps suck the most.

Luiz better hope Kolasinac has forgiven this

Hmmm na it's to expensive, remember real signed Kaka early and hes knees were shot he was shit and on monster transfer and wages. Same with united and Hargreaves they were both just signed 6 months early and arrived broken. With £72m we really cant roll that dice.

Gazza M

Having a quick scan of the chelsea forums, and they seem to be largely pissed off over this deal which a positive. Low Price tag and the loss of his passing ability are the main sources of lamentation

Not sure why deardevil is clinging onto Iwobi.

What if it enables one final madness? Someone who actually has end product and can can play on the wing effectively?

Fuck Spurs btw, as if it needs saying again.

Disgusting they were allowed to go in that CL run. Fuck Dortmund. This has given them the false big club image. Was really hoping for a difficult summer for them. Makes our equivalent stadium move era look pitiful.

Tottenham are loaning Lo Celso with an obligation to buy. I wonder if they don't have the money or have changed the deal last minute in order to try and use their money on Dybala? Maybe Eriksen will be sold in January or go on a free after all? That seems the most likely reason.

This is not a Cech transfer. Luiz isn't past it and is an improvement of what we got for a start. He was a starter for them too so it weakens them. Not to mention he has been edging a move to us since 2 years ago

Anyway, that aside we've done mostly superb business. Very pleased with Raul and Edu.

Hope we can get one of Europe's elite young CBs for Jan or next summer.

Wouldn't mind a monster CM either. Then we're complete.

There may be ticking timebombs yet to go off for them. 3 things i want to see happen

Dybala and lo celso flop, or at least don't deliver the value outlaid
They lose their experienced assets like eriksen, alderweireld, and vertonghen for nothing
The desperation to stay relevant skews their wage bill the way ours has been and it becomes unmanageable

Fuck Inter you mean. Their inability to beat PSV at home meant Spurs go through to the KO stage.

They actually have too many midfielders now and little wingers. Lo Celso and Dybala is overkill. Alli and Eriksen wants to play there too
