    Unai told no lies...loan transfers only and between zero and two signings

    Played a blinder...got the man he wanted and made everyone realise how bad Ivan and the board have been.

    It does remind me that Wenger was not only our most successful manager, he was our most intelligent and blessed with a wry sense of humour.

    His first signing was Vieira. Emery's was Lichsteiner.

    If I may that sense of humor seriously wore thin. It's what secured him his bumper paydays, including a $22m exit payout. All the while he was happy to provide cover for a bunch of faceless sports bureaucrats while jerking around the average fan.

    He loved the club and wanted to win. He won us 3 FA Cups in his last five years. Not bad. I'd take that kind of cover.

    His first signing was Remi Garde. Technically Suarez is Emery’s first signing because Mislintat was doing the recruiting in the summer and now he isn’t.

    One might suspect that Gwendolin was an Emery signing - seeing as he plays him every match.

    It was funny to see Sven getting credit for that one even though it was clearly Emery's influence having known (or heard about him) from his time on PSG's books

    Indeed, the notion that SM was the deciding voice in every transfer move was funny.

    When asked how much of an influence Emery had on his move, Guendouzi told Canal Football Club: "He [Emery] was definitely a reason why I went. It was him who really wanted me to come to Arsenal.

    Yes you're probably right. Anyway as LA suggests, none of it is that important. All managers make good signings and bad ones. I'm ****ing sick of people who keep reminiscing about Arsene. He's gone, move on or kill yourself.
