So it looks like Arsenal are getting a CM, a defender, and a keeper. That’s probably about as good as could be expected. Now I just hope these players are actually good.

Also need a winger. Why not lodge a cheeky bid for Brandt while you're negotiating with Leverkusen anyway? Also, two of those signings are very underwhelming - none of my regular Bundesliga-watching friends rate Leno, and Sokratis just sucks.

Who was the CM linked with Arsenal? Also iirc they also picked up Lichtsteiner already.

Mickolution posted:Seems like there will be a lot of teams scrambling for players after the World Cup, considering the window closes on August 9th this year. That's the worry. With Jose pottering about Russia being a pundit and Woodward being Woodward, I'm not exactly overflowing with confidence. If United go into the season with Ashley Young and Antonio Valencia as their number one fullback choices, someone needs to be shot.

Maddison having a medical at Leicester, 22m + add ons. Feel like we could have held out for more.

Arsenal have announced a bunch of staff changes. Bould is staying as co-assistant, which seems a bit weird. https://www.arsenal.com/news/first-team-coaching-staff-confirmed

Leno to Arsenal is a done deal hes a good but not quite great keeper who plateaued a bit. Arsenal should be a good fit and we already got a replacement who I rate about as good as him https://twitter.com/bayer04fussball/status/1009142182501068801?s=09

hopefully poaching all those goalkeeping coaches pays off

I am glad that there is someone coming in at GK, couldn't have expected they'd try for anyone bigger since they are such hot commodities.

It remains to be seen if these players are actually any good, but it's incredible that we're less than two months post-Wenger and have already made all the signings he refused to make.

Wilshere has posted an essay on social media confirming he is leaving Arsenal. States the reason is no guarantee of regular playing time.

If his legs weren't essentially glass covered by paper-mache then he'd likely be guaranteed more playing time. No one doubts his ability, but he's simply injured too often. Guess Ozil will finally get #10 after supposedly coveting it for awhile now?

Guess Ozil will finally get #10 after supposedly coveting it for awhile now? He never achieved his potential, perhaps from injuries, whatever... but not good enough to tell him "you're one of the 11". He was a squad player who would get a lot of subs and a few starts at best.

He was a squad player who would get a lot of subs and a few starts at best. Yeah, he actually stays somewhat healthy these days. He's just not that good. At best he's a starter for a bottom of the table team. I hope he can make up for the lost years, but he shouldn't really be doing it at Arsenal.

Anyone who is asking for guarantees play time is a bitch. He wanted out and is trying real hard to not be a villain. No ill will, but I’m not broken up about it. I’d like to think this means we will look for another midfielder, but that is probably being too hopeful.

Torreira and Maitland-Niles, I doubt anyone else comes in.

maybe he should guarantee his own playing time by being good at football and not having broken pieces of old dog turds for legs

Wilshere doesnt have a body type compatible with the modern game where you run 10k per match

Fabianski to West Ham tomorrow. All of Swansea's goalkeeping coaches have left in the last couple of days (dogshit Arsenal old boy fraud Tony Roberts to China with Coleman, the development coach to Orlando Pirates) except Gerhard Tremmel maybe but I don't think he has his badges.
