Forget Oezil. We need to just focus on hijacking unestablished kids right now. Focus on guys who are slightly below on the radar - Kagawa, Eriksen, Giroud.
They're not going to turn us into world beaters, but when these players replace the likes of Arshavin, Rosicky, Chamakh, etc, they put us much closer to being a much more secure top 4 club.
Would you rather wait til the end of the transfer window to see what the leftovers are after the feast at high table featuring Chelsea, United, Real, Barca, Bayern and even Milan? Or would you rather just humbly go after the players who are realistic targets, finish your business early in the window and leisurely get ready for the season?
