His dad is saying he'll join his new club in the summer. It must be us. He wasn't going to make a difference right now and he gets a proper preseason to step in slowly. He's a long term bet anyway.
Let's get a proper fucking forward now.

Qwiss -- right there with you.
It was obvious this summer we needed to move on from Jesus, let Trossard wind his contract down, and still sign at least one winger/forward. That need has only further manifested after over playing Saka, seeing Martinelli continue to struggle with form, and Jesus not be available. All of those outcomes were incredibly obvious, and it is asinine to not have planned for them. Further, I don't believe Nwaneri was "the plan" to address that as he's so far been shoehorned into one specific position for the most part only after Saka got injured.
We can sign someone now and address these issues for the rest of our season, or we can face all of them again in the summer. No sense waiting, and I would argue there are even incentives now for certain clubs (Brentford) to cash in on players (Mbuemo) when their seasons are pre-destined for mediocrity and safety.
Worth it if only for the bantz?
I'd be amazed if he doesn't go to Man U. He'd walk into their starting 11 while he'd only be on the bench here.
DiabyKungFu they still got Rasmus and that Dutch donkey. Here he can share serious mins with Kai and also rotate on the wing. Plus would be playing in CL as opposed to EL.
Coombs I don't know how you can say that when a 60m signing would literally be our 5th most expensive signing of all time. While I agree that looking at our financial positioning and the trajectory of our team (with associated performance based windfalls incoming), we should be able to spend that type of money pretty easily, we don't usually. I have a hard time believing we would sanction a 60m signing this January and then be just as free on spending in the summer as if we didn't. I wish that weren't the case, and hopefully it won't be moving forward, but I can only base it on what we have done to date.
For everyone that is saying we need to sign someone NOW, who is it that you want us to sign? Tel for 60m? I love his potential but you're paying for his development into that player up front and that's a very risky gamble. He also likely wouldn't have a huge impact this season anyways other than being another body.
Who are these other strikers or attackers that we realistically could get right now?
Also as an aside, I do still think that Watkins may move this window with the amount of links that Villa has to Felix, Rashford, Asencio. Everything that has been written about them states they are going to be up against it with PSR even with the Duran sale so someone else will likely need to go if they intend to move forward with any of those deals. I could see Watkins moving towards the end of the weekend if they get progress on those deals. Watkins for 60m would be something I could get behind, although I do think that would mean no Isak/Sesko in the summer.
lorddulaarsenal What a guy. Sign him up haha.
Keep the Powder Dry FC
Tel getting Levy to fly out to Munich to tell him no to his face

Ok. Fun times.
We only have a couple of days to go. Who could we realistically sign that would make you content with this window?
I've started to make peace with the idea we ain't getting anyone. Obviously, not telling anyone else what to do, but maybe we should start sharing coping strategies.
Nathan Butler-Oyedeji. Remember the name

Another one bites the dust
Looks like it’s Watkins or bust.
Or Rashy
lorddulaarsenal please stop with this. No one else wants Rashford!
Not saying I want him
