It’s not David Luiz it’s just made to look like David Luiz.

Arsenal are supposedly making a second bid for Douglas and Villa also supposedly do not want to sell. Arsenal must have done some serious tapping up on this guy.

Really hope Arsenal do some business in the next few hours and get another CM in. Part of what I think helped scupper our top 4 finish last season was not getting in another striker in the Jan window to replace Aubameyang and it's worth giving 30m or whatever Villa wants if it means we get a decent CM that doesnt leave us short in the middle with all these injuries and with the amount of games we'll be playing.

Without another CM coming in, I think top 4 is gone. We would be forced to play Sambi twice a week until the World Cup.

Arsenal's recruitment as shambolic as I predicted. Stop the winger search because you need a midfielder, fail to land a midfielder anyway, end up with nothing.

Yea I like Arteta but if we fail two seasons in a row to sign a key player for a position that needs to be filled and it leads to us slipping up again that's unacceptable.

Agreed, but fabio vieira is potentially cover at deeper lying cm as far as I read, and I thought zinchenko was supposed to also be a potential fill in for partey as long as tierney is fit

Apparently Arsenal have just offered 25m for Luiz and that doesnt look like it's enough. Well just offer 35m then for god sake. It's not like they're strapped for cash and if that extra 10m gets you a player that will help you secure top 4 and all of the money that comes with it then do it. Clubs arent going to let you lowball them when you're a rich club and they can see you need the player.

How can you call it shambolic when the team is the best it's been for over a decade?

Xhaka got better over the past season and Zinchenko can play midfield. I don’t think Vieira will ever play either of the deeper midfield positions; I think he’ll end up in Odegaard and Saka’s positions. That said it’s shambolic they’re relying on Partey at all. The team’s as good as it’s been in a decade maybe but man is it a gloomy loving situation.

We have 1 DM, who is not even a DM for the forseeable future, and stopped our pursuit of a winger to sign another midfielder, then failed to sign the midfielder, and ended up with no winger either.

The quality of the squad is good, but it is far too small to handle the fixture list we have. It is also needlessly small, since we did loaned out Pepe thinking we would sign a winger, then didn't.
