    Don't forget Theo either. Someone will give us 25m (EUR 30m for him).

    Or, to be more exotic, how Real spent all summer chasing De Gea and then actually missing out on him, the year before?
    Or the way we had Xhaka in the bag before the Euros?

    Almost like all clubs take some time over deals and do some immediately, us included.
    We ummed and ahhed about Mustafi's fee for over a month. Resulting in our only two fit CBs being Chambers and Holding at the start of the season. That is poor. Not blaming Arsene as I don't think he makes the decisions on finances.

    We also signed Lucas Perez at the end which was pointless as he was clearly never going to be a top PL player. He is 30 next year.

    Well, you are confusing newspaper gossip with reality and have totally ignored the point I was making, which I admit doesn't really surprise me

    Perez has not even been given a chance. He can't be worse at football than Walcott, surely.

    Why would we give him a chance over the far superior Alexis, Welbeck Giroud, Ox? Tbh - Walcott isn't as one footed as Perez. I assume he was just insurance in case Welbeck broke down again.
