Get the above players attacking purposefully and swiftly.
We don't try to walk the ball into the net we try to walk it in backwards!!!!
Just get on with it Pep.

Yep. Sanchez would've been a bonus, not a necessity.

The left back issue however appears to be unresolved.

Not so sure - Danilo can play either side, peps planning on wing backs anyway so that adds sane to the mix even tho first impressions suggest it's not his best position - Mang also dabbles in left back doesn't he?

I was driving home trying to work out how we fit all the players in including the bench so happy this one hasn't gone through - unless a sudden change happens - now Pep needs to get the best out of what we have rather than whinge about who we haven't got - let the players prove they are good enough without strengthening

They know exactly what they doing mate. They are looking after their own personal interests and taking plenty of money out of the club. Football was a distant second in Arsenals vocabulary a good while ago

I used to know someone who was involved in meeting between the chairmen of Arsenal and the rags in the last '90s. They never spoke about football just about maximizing the profits of both clubs.

He could have forced this through, if he doesn't he can fuck off in the future .Wouldn't touch him with a Gallup poll, let alone a bargepole.

How could he have do you think?

Reports are he told his mates he was coming to us, and now that we will look to sign him on a free over the summer.

Tolmie said fee was agreed at 3pm so I was getting carries away at work and claimed sky knew nothing.

Could still be posturing as the lemar bid sounds bollocks.

There was a verbal agreement in place by all accounts, but a verbal agreement is not worth the paper it's written on.

Sort of paints a picture of why Wenger gets rewarded with continual failure .

Agree with others, would have really liked some more defensive reinforcements.

I don't know why but I just have a 'feeling' that this ain't dead yet. Gut feeling that something will happen in the next hour, be it Sanchez finally submitting a transfer request (publically) and then us paying the £70mil Arsenal want.

Put in a transfer request springs to mind.

I think 'Tolm' has posted a few songs.
"Like all bullies, they've just found out that there is a much bigger guy in town, someone who is richer and more powerful than their worst nightmare. And this smiling Arabic assassin is intent on stealing all the treasures they've nicked off everyone else, and pulverising them into commercial and footballing oblivion as he does so."

Think Tolmie said 3pm yesterday but the club are just teasing them as they have a deal with Jim White to make the last seconds of transfer window very exciting

Sky just said they have heard that Mahrez has turned up in Paris. Can't be for psg but could it be for Monaco with Lemar to arsenal still a possibility?
