Yes, but it's been categorically proven after three games that he's shít, psrb. Do try and keep up!
He was actually one of Europe's least coveted strikers. Nobody else wanted him and the only bid last summer was from West Ham.
Not that I am knocking him, obviously. I have only seen him play once. I am sure he is quite good and all that.
Atletico wanted him. Shirley, that is a sign of a good striker
"Scoring a goal is better than sex" - Whoever said that was sticking it to the wrong woman
Shhhh! The West Ham angle was funnierAtletico wanted him. Shirley, that is a sign of a good striker
Was he really?
That's not to diss the man, just asking. Were we fighting off other suitors?
He was all set for Atletico, they got their transfer ban and in a most un-Arsenal move we stepped in and wrapped up the deal pretty quickly
Pretty sure United and Liverpool were also linked
Okay, fair enough I know the Madrid deal was in place and a lot of people hold Simeone up as a genius.
The United one I seem to recall the story being peddled that they looked at him and said no thanks though I expect some of the rejection theory here was the media trying to create a division or conflict between JM and AW when one did not exist.
Can’t recall the Scousers but you may be correct.
Still, hardly “most coveted”. There seemed to be a bit of the proverbial back and forth with Monsieur Aulas at the time and I can’t recall him threatening us with stories of tangible interest from third parties.
Again, not to cast aspersions on the chap at all. I hope for the sake of God and all that is holy in this world that he is a huge success for us. I spent about €60 for a shirt with his name on the back if nothing else, if he turns out to be toilet it will be a tough conversation chez moi.
Sanchez out, Draxler in, that's my prediction
But PSG said he is definitely not going. I know we said the same about Ox and Sanchez but dont discount the possibility that other clubs may actually mean it when they say it.
Draxler has gone fishing today anyway. He always turns his phone off when he goes fishing. Everyone knows that.
