Summer 2018 Transfer Window

[buskwhi2]

I wonder just how close we were to signing Giroud? Last season could’ve been so so different.

Is he the same player that was linked to Southampton in the January transfer window?

Yes and linked to the [Poor language removed] as well

From the little I know about that, very very close.
Until his mrs kicked off.

Sound mate, moan away, it wont bother me anymore.

I dont intend to come across as moaning for the sake of it or trying to wind up others so I'll try refrain from posting on this thread until we hear something credible. I suppose without the footie on/going the match with the lads I've been venting on this specific thread than I would be during the season!

As I said earlier though come 31st July if no transfer business my posts won't be seen as moaning as it'll be an accepted view amongst the majority, the same way if someone posts crap about Silva every day they'll be shot down as having an agenda if we are sat in 6th/7th - but likewise they wouldn't be challenged if we are sat in 14th as it'll be seen as the viewpoint of the majority and wont be challenged.

I don't think he'd have legged it back to London the moment Allardyce turrned up though

I dont trust that article at all.

The "fenerbache offered a loan" bit looks like pure lazy journalism.

I'll believe it when I see it

Pavard for CB?

I don't get why you are quoting goalscoring records of 3 attacking players against a defensive midfielder, that's abit odd

not everyone rates wilshere to be fair, I rate him highly and think he's brilliant but to say he's a myth is strange

and he had a really really good spell at the latter end of the season where week in and out he was there best player

I find it a bit odd that you called him a defensive midfielder when in last season in his 33 games he was only utilized as a defensive midfielder twice. Where he has played as a attacking midfielder almost half of his games.

But the reasone I quoted the stats of those players was because you said Wilshere was arsenals best player in the last 6 months of the season. I was pointing out how he was no where near.

Why wouldn't Fenerbahce offer a loan deal for a CB like Mina?

Varane, the centre half for France, is so similar in physique to Jack Rodwell. Could never understand why we played Rodwell in midfield. If ever a player looked like a centre half playing out of position in midfield it was him.

Mate do you believe Rodwell is PL quality and you are saying CB...

Don't think he's quite as fast as Varane, who is just friggin lightning. But yeah, likely had a 10 cent head.

Rodwell was a CB, but was played in Midfield by Moyes
