I have it here in my notes that Pissflaps is a transfer thread enthusiast. It’s in ink, so it can’t be changed. I’m sorry.

I don’t know about you all, but I’m an loving psyched to have signed a 20 year old who made 2 starts last year for a team that finished in the bottom half of the Greek Superleague.

tarbrush posted:Still can't quite get my head round the idea that Coutinho is the second most expensive footballer ever. He's really loving good, but I don't think even in our boomiest moments we'd have compared him to Suarez, Ronaldo, Messi or whoever. That’s because he’s not worth £142m

CyberPingu posted:http://gianlucadimarzio.com/en/manchester-city-agreement-reached-for-arsenals-alexis-sanchez-the-figures For Italian stuff, yeah. But he’s not particularly good outside of Italy. Seems like Sanchez to City for a fee in this area is definitely happening, though. I just hope Wengy wraps it up soon so that Arsenal can get some players in.

Bacon Terrorist posted:Arsenal won’t buy anyone of note this window I think, the plan now is limp through the league, try and win the europa league, massive rebuilding job in summer (please god Wenger retire and let the new guys plus new manager do the rebuild - he’s going to sign Fellaini on a loving free isn’t he). I don’t think they really have a choice about signing new players. The squad is bad, and there are so many players with contracts expiring in the next year that they couldn’t really do a rebuild in one summer. I’m starting to hope that the club is actually preparing for life after Wengy. They hired a “director of football relations” and “head of recruitment,” titles that sound like they’re actually trying to have some frame work in place outside of Wengy. Wengy didn’t seem too happy about the hiring of either of them, too.

Libertine posted:Arsenal need about 4-5 new first team and 4-5 new second team players all across the pitch. Their team has just stagnated for so long with lack of transfer moves. Meanwhile, what should be their competition has been in for transfer activity in the hundreds of millions. Arsenal were 15th out of 20 EPL teams in transfer spending this summer, that's straight up indefensible for a big club with as many depth problems as they have. They continue to be one of the highest revenue teams in the league and they just sit on it non-stop while their ownership and management refuse to make competitive bids for star players. It's honestly disgusting. I think your projection for the number of players is right. And not just because of the quality of the players. Alexis, Ozil, Wilshere, Ramsey, Giroud, Cech, Cazorla, Monreal, and Ospina are all heading into the last year of their contract, and we’re getting to the point that it’s conspicuous that they have not signed extensions. Debuchy is on his way out, Cazorla died, Koscielny seems to be on the decline. Not to mention that Mustafi and supposedly Bellerin wanted out this summer. There are just a ton of moves to be made if Arsenal want to field a team that isn’t Lacazette, Elneny, and a bunch of youth team players in the next few years. I don’t understand what’s going on with Coquelin. He’s a limited player, but he’s competent and reliable for what he does. He’s certainly better than Elneny who is an absolute shithouse. I don’t understand why Coquelin has fallen so far out of favor of why Arsenal seem to be happy to move him on.

Vegetable posted:He hasn't played a game in ages and the fee is wayyyy more than he's worth, nbd to be honest £12m seems like a fair price for him? IMO he should have been getting more playing time, and Arsenal are already looking short of quality in midfield. At the moment Xhaka, Elneny, and Maitland Niles (who has never played a premier league match in the center of midfield) are the only healthy midfielders. And Now I guess we’re short at fullback? greazeball posted:Everybody should, what squad wouldn't he improve and what better player could anyone get for that price? And you destabilise Arsenal while driving up the price for City. I get the impression that his wage demands are really astronomical, and he is 29 so clubs may be put off to the extent he’s looking for a long term contract. It is still surprising more teams aren’t in for him, though. blue footed boobie fucked around with this message at 17:35 on Jan 11, 2018 |

Bacon Terrorist posted:The kid was scouted by the new guy rather than Wenger? That’s very promising. Supposedly the Greek kid and Malcolm are the new guy’s picks. Ornstein said Sanchez will go if Arsenal can find a replacement, and their primary target is Malcolm, so I guess that’s real.

Sanchez is A Good Player. He seems to be better as a striker than winger at this point in his career, but he would make any team in the PL better.

Jose posted:Why would he go to arsenal lol Why can't we just sell Alexis outright to Man Utd, even though it's loving stupid, it's still the only club willing to pay our asking price. Buy Auba, Malcom and tempt Leicester into selling Mahrez. Tie down Ozil who will be sporting a chubby when he knows how many assists he'll get next season. We're selling Walcott. Coq is gone. So the money is definitely there to buy + wages and we'll be a lot stronger than we are currently. Then we go for a EL trophy, get guaranteed CL, and look at a GK & DM in the summer. OK, it sounds very Football Manager-y, but we have to do something or we'll be lucky to get top 10, let alone top 6 or 4.

Manchester United have been busy this transfer window, and they have a tasty done deal. http://www.manutd.com/en/News-And-F...-of-Yanmar.aspx This new signing offers advanced design, unmatched power and simple yet sturdy functionality come together in Yanmar’s new addition to its flagship model YT Series, making this premium tractor a vital addition to the expert grounds team at the club, who recently won Premier League Grounds Team of the Season for 2016/17.

T Bowl posted:So is wenger going to push lacazette out wide or have two up front then. I have to imagine Aubameyang will be the one to go out wide. I wonder if this means Ozil is gone. There are only a few formations that could accommodate Ozil, Lacazette, and Aubameyang in their best positions, and Wengy doesn’t seem like he would switch to a diamond or 3-5-2 any time soon. e: I forgot about Mhkitaryan. Not sure Wengy has a plan at all here. blue footed boobie fucked around with this message at 20:10 on Jan 18, 2018 |

Ninpo posted:I was going to make a post lamenting the lack of width in that formation then I remembered Arsenal have no width of note anyway No width and no sensible combination in midfield. Even if Arsenal get Aubameyang and Mhkitaryan, there isn’t any team that they can play that seems particularly good. The diamond discussed above gets the most of Arsenal’s expensive players on the field, but Wenger would never try it. Most likely he’d go with a 4-2-3-1 and hope the front 4 are talented enough to paper over the cracks.
