This next season could be loving insane. Matipe didn't have the best season but I still think he's quality. Klavan less so. If we can wrap Fekir up before the world cup I'll be loving delighted. We really need to hit the ground running next season and having all the signings available for pre season would be a huge boost

Fabinho and Keita not going to the world cup certainly helps

They’re going to re-sign Fabianski aren’t they. Wouldn't be the worst open. He's a good keeper. Not as good as Szczesny admittedly. Always thought we were loving imbeciles to let him go, not matter what sort of falling out happened behind the scenes with him and Arsene.

I’m sure Fabianski is better than Leno who seems to be the other target. Insanely jealous of Liverpool's splurging, truly shows that the Arse are a now a mid-tier club at best.

Well we're about to spaff 80m on a keeper probably.

Suppose the question is whether Matip is truly the player we saw this year, or the much better player we saw last year. I'm fine with Gomez and Klavan sharing the 4th CB job.

Why was Fabinho so cheap? Must be a red flag somewhere. Or has he got one year left on his deal

Arsenal are apparently in for Turkey and Freiburg centre back Caglar Soyuncu, at least according to the player himself in an interview, supposedly around a £35m fee

That was rumoured a couple of weeks back so could be true.

I think he has improved so much exactly because he has been out of the spotlight. His issues at Arsenal were largely psychological. Which can be said about a lot of Arsenal keepers, come to think of it. Except Almunia, he just wasn’t very good.

The 2018 list (which I checked before posting) only has a £60m difference so I would imagine another year of CL money would make a difference. Having said that, there's a lot of doom and gloom around Arsenal these days, but they're not in all that different a situation to where Liverpool were a few seasons back. They have money, a few very good players and a few players that can definitely improve if coached right. They'll need a couple of good/lucky signings, but it wouldn't be a shock to see them back in the top 4 sooner rather than later.

That's definitely part of it (the lack of injuries is another, he's barely missed a game since coming here). At Arsenal every game he got was make or break and when he started to get into form the lack of red meat would do him in. Not a good situation for any goalkeeper. He had one iffy season after we brought in his old Arsenal goalkeeping coach Tony Roberts (Fabs was back to flapping at crosses instead of catching everything like he did the year before) but he got that out of his system pretty quick. We would have gone down in the Guidolin/Bradley/Clement season without a world class Pole in our goal, but he won't get the respect he deserves for that.
