Wenger's Transfer Targets: Summer 2017

[Tir Na Nog]

We all know how important full-backs/wing-backs are in the modern game, plus his signing allows Monreal to go to the back 3 which he's excelled. With our new system it's vital that we've got guys like Kola and Bellerin as the outlets.

You can dress it up however you want, Kolasinac is an excellent addition to the team and gives us good balance in the wing-back department. The difference between going into the season with Kola and Gibbs/aging Monreal at wing-back is not to be underestimated. Kola has better ball-retention, better crossing, better passing and is an all round tough physical guy.

To completely dismiss the signing because he's not a shiny 60 million striker/CM/CB is basically acting like a spoilt toddler.

We haven't even extended Özil Sanchez or Ox for god sake.

I'm not impressed.

 

[Anders Harbo]

For the me the core and most important business was the spine of the team.

I'm glad Kola is here but a guy like him isn't going to swing our season as much as a CM, CB etc.

I agree, but the fact we badly need a new creative CM, doesn't cancel out another fact: We needed a new left back. Yet you insist on ignoring his appearance in the squad.

 

[Arsenio Venger]

Kolasnic is like that piece of broccoli on the plate, I'm still waiting for the meat and potatoes.

You guys put cream on the broccoli and enjoy, not me.

Alexis is the plate

 

[Tir Na Nog]

I had a wish list at the start of the summer and I see no reason why I should step away from that.

I think we need a new spine to compete, thats my belief.

Sure we'll pass it on to Wenger seeing as you know more than him about what's needed in the team.

 

[GDeep™]

I keep genuinely forgetting about Kola, so what does that tell you?

 

[Anders Harbo]

We haven't even extended Özil Sanchez or Ox for god sake.

I'm not impressed.

I don't really care about Ox. Sanchez ... well do you blame the club?!? Everybody knows(you included), that Özil will extend his contract...

We know Wenger is too loyal to his current players. Another season of Cech, Kos, Per, Santi, Jack coming.

3 of these will barely kick a ball, the other two are old.

I don't really care about Ox. Sanchez ... well do you blame the club?!? Everybody knows(you included), that Özil will extend his contract...

No, I'm worried Özil is going to take us into his final year.

About you or about Kola?

Come on, man. You've been nothing but negative lately. I know you'll try to say you're just being realistic but you're taking the piss for sport recently.

are you a new member or is this someone who's set up a new account?

 

[GDeep™]

About you or about Kola?

About how I view Kola.

We shouldn't joke about such stuff, dementia is a horrible thing.

 

[Tir Na Nog]

About how I view Kola.

Yeah but, how you view Kola means nothing in the grand scheme of things so I've no idea what you imply by "what does that tell you" when every other Arsenal fan is aware of his existence.

Why would Kolasinac count as a substantial signing anyways, not like he was the best left-back in the Bundesliga last season.

Imagine signing Alexis on a free. Subpar.

Hey, I completely respect that - we definitely need more signings. Just feel like you've been talking down to people more than your usual banter.

And not new, no. I might have bumped my head and forgotten my name though.

 

[Tir Na Nog]

Imagine signing Alexis on a free. Subpar.

Also Alexis is a winger so he wouldn't even improve the spine of the team which means we'd all forget about his existence.

 

[GDeep™]

Anyway, I hope Wenger signs the 3/4 top players we need, we've got one so far, and I'm happy with him.
