Summer Transfer Window 2017

Do we really need another DM though

I would have said no
But with Barry gone we have no one to replace Morgan if injured /suspended
Macca and Bescic are more Gana replacements
The little I know of Dendonker would suggest he'd play the same role as Morgan
If rumour is to be believed he wants to leave and wants to play for Koeman.
We have decent contacts in Belgium and good relations with Anderlect after the Henry loan so it could be a good but surprising signing

...I got the impression from RKs after-match interview that he's after a LB/CB as opposed to a CB/LB.

This utterly stinks of Enner Valencia type signing on deadline day.

It could have been worse though mate.

£30 million quid on Sissoko.

Badly. Schneiderlin is our only sitting DM with Barry gone. Besic and Gana are positionally all over the shop, and work in more of a box-to-box ballwinner role. McCarthy will probably never play for us again, and is also in the Gana/Besic mold anyway. Davies, Klaassen aren't DMs.

A CB and Striker, no idea who.

Outs...

McCarthy, Robles, Niasse, Lennon, Barkley (we'll see on the last one).

Spot on.

Hopefully a DM is also coming in with the striker and CB.

How's that kid getting on at Anderlecht?

Sorry, couldn't find his thread... as I can't remember the lads name.

Just what we need, more defensive players.

Zzzzzzzzzz

surely they are even harder to find!

...absolutely Neil, but he kept mentioning cover for Baines.

Since yesterday, who have we bought, what did they cost, where do they play and are they any good?

Thanks
lol

....a few months off perhaps, but it's worth noting that Coleman and more importantly Bolasie will surely give us something more going forward.

I know, but the last thing we need is another midfielder who doesnt know what a forward pass looks like.

We have Morgan, Besic and Gana, we dont need more freaking defender midfielders.

...we've got a young goalkeeper from USA.

All 3 are doable deals

Giroud is 33-1 on to stay at Arsenal. You don't often see the bookies get it wrong by that much. If Howedes is actually available, we'll face massive competition for his signature, not least from our neighbours. And I'm not sure if Dendoncker is in Koeman's mind, although I would take him in a heartbeat. He could cover the CB position too but probably not LB.

If we bring in even one of the three I'd be delighted. All three is, as I say, dreamland mate. But no harm in that.

Dunno mate, when talking about it he did say centre back before adding about the left back ability to play, which for me would suggest the other way around, a cb who can cover lb
