What is all the doomsday shit going on here? Could we use another half decent attacker? Yep. Are we in dire straits because we did not sign one? Nope. We strengthened 2 other weak(er) spots on the team at LB and at CM plus we have Timber back this season plus a more settled and confident Raya. Lets not forget that we went 16-1-1 in the last 18 games last season with virtually the same team, minus the CM & LB upgrade.
USArsenal if we get close again this year and don't win, it won't be despite doing all we could this summer to make ourselves as competitive as possible. It will be because we didn't. Out net spend is virtually zero - we cheaped out. Money is the one thing we use against City when we can't beat them, but if we don't use what we have then that money doesn't really matter.
USArsenal we also have Nwaneri who will make an impact
Clrnc forget it, Nelson now rumoured to be pushing to leave and we are going to approve of it.
4 clubs have came in with loan bids
we should pull the pin on the eddie deal. the new CL layout has added more fixtures to the schedule . we need warm bodies
Gazza M sorry, you will get 2 more goalkeepers and you will like it
I'll take a sterling loan at this point. he can deliver more than Nelson in cup games where we have to rotate heavily
Didn't realize Neto was cup-tied because he played in the league cup two days ago. 😆
They really must have thought Espanyol were just bluffing when they kept saying 30m or no deal.
QuincyAbeyie unbelievably pointless signing. Waste of ink on paper, let alone the time Edu wasted sorting it.
Seems like Sterling will happen. Be interesting to see him under Arteta. I recon we’ll improve his fitness and he’ll be a weapon for us.
Remember wishlisting him as he left Liverpool.
It's happening lads. Looks like Arteta disagrees with all those saying we don't need anyone else.
QuincyAbeyie Looks like Arteta disagrees with all those saying we don't need anyone else.
Seems like a one-for-one replacement for Nelson, to be fair.
QuincyAbeyie has anybody said we don't need anyone else?
Sterling replacing Nelson is a win.
DiabyKungFu yeah, Nelson isn't good enough to be depth. Arteta never wants to play him. That probably won't happen with Sterling.
Sterling is ok. He can do a decent job against most teams. Against the good teams, though, he isn't what we need. He doesn't score enough goals, and, more importantly, his defending is shit.
Kel Varnsen he can be reserve corner winner
I don't mind Sterling or Coman but where's our striker?? This is madness
GooneriC in leipzig
saka backed up by sterling is a mild improvement on what we have, which is as good as we'll get right now. bizarre that we're scrambling like this so late though.
I don't think we're scrambling for Sterling as much as we're coming in late for him to get more favourable terms and capitalise on Chelsea's desperation.
