My life is complete. What a time to be alive.

Lyon want 60m for Lacazette. Crazy money, but Arsene has no choice really.

I've given up on a striker, Mustafi will have to do

If Arsenal pull off their plan in bringing Mustfi,Lacazette and Mahrez then they could be deadly.

I think they end up with Mustafi and Mahrez though. Will still be a good team though.


Cech

Bellerin
Kosch
Mustafi
Whoever

Xaka
Ramsay
Ozil

Mahrez
Giroud
Sanchez

With Sanchez as the striker and Giroud dropped for a mid in the tough games.

:joker::joker::joker::joker::joker::joker:

We never play 4-3-3 so that formation is not gonna happen and from what I understand Mahrez has no release clause and Leicester dont want to sell - understandably - so that deal would be a big one. Probably 40 million plus.

Mustafi might happen but not before Liverpool

Like that formation though. We'd look good playing those three in midfield.

It can work as a 4231 too tbf. I think Mahrez will be an Arsenal player by the end of the summer. For 41m it would be a steal too.

If we play those players in a 4231 then Ramsey would probably go to holding mid. He's no where near as effective in that position.

I hope you're right about Mahrez but I think it will be too expensive and I doubt Wenger will pay 40 million plus unless he has to. Mahrez is not featured in the Leicester promo outside their ground for the new season. Seems strange that Morgan, Vardy etc are included but the current player of the year is missing. I dont doubt Mahrez will leave and I hope he comes to Arsenal but I always worry about the clubs ambition so I'm not optimistic about us signing him.

Lacazette scores a hat trick. Probably put another ten million on his price tag. :joker:

Amazing :joker:

Rip Joe Hart x

I don't know if Lescott is a bad signing or a good signing, in terms of the standard he should be alright in the spl, very happy about Joe Garner though

Benteke to Palace almost done :think:

poor Chadli going from Spurs to West Brom

An upgrade tbh

Bit surprised they managed to get it done,, thought he was a really good impact player for Spurs towards the end of last season

poor Wilshere on the way out on loan as well

Bit shocked to hear this and to see that it was Jack going on loan.

Dunno about this. He will do well if he stays fit no matter where he goes so I'm not sure why he wont figure more for us. Especially when you consider that Flamini played more than 20 games for us last season :shrug:

The squad needs freshening up but Im not sure Jack would have been the player I'd have picked out as needing experience on loan

Jack and Chambers going out on loan, Gnabry probably on his way out, i don't know whether to be happy Jack and Chambers could get regular playing time or if this is the end of their time at Arsenal. As for Gnabry he should never be allowed to leave permanently. This is freeing up so much wages, enough for a new signing some might say

Gnabry to Bayern. No nothing about him, but Arsenal fans were saying he is their Martial and really high on him. Strange.

Couldn't care less about the media's crazy obsession with transfers.

I like sport to be sport, not politics.

Football is played on a field, not a TV studio.

I don't buy none of their sensationalism, let's get on with the football.

And Sky sports news, live up to your name and report all sport, or if you're not willing to do that, then call the channel, Sky football news.

The media's obsession with the richest sport has destroyed the actual game.

Turns out Gnabry is going to Bremen, not Bayern. Even more bizarre.
