£6m is feck all in a great scheme of things, he'd have cost us £40m in total and he was well worth it - a 21-year old who is going to be one of the best in the world for a decade or so. The whole reluctancy to pay premium money to agents etc. has hindered us a bit in the market, it's one thing having principles and another implementing them within reason.


I just don't think it's purely a case of the manager having his say, there's also something above that.
 
Still can't believe we weren't in for him. One of the best AM's in the world available and we are sat doing feck all
 
Absolutely, the problem is it doesn't look like we're signing anyone, except maybe Fellaini.


Well thats a different problem entirely.

feck this shit if Ozil to Arsenal is done. Last year we didn't "need" Van Persie also. Look how it turned out... People still saying we don't "need" one of the most creative, if not the most, player in the world. feck. THIS. SHIT.


I was one of those who actually said that, and I obviously stand corrected.

However, Van Persie was a steal at £24m to be fair so that kind of helped understand the reasoning in getting him. Ozil is different, we're talking £40m-£50m. We can't continue to hide or mask the shortage in midfield and spending that type of money won't help in the search for a midfielder I don't think.
 
He's a great signing, but IMO they needed a world class CF much more.
 
Fair fecks to Wenger, fantastic signing. He is the absolute best schemer out there. Just think of the service he could provide to Van Persie, instead he will make Olivier Giroud a 25 goal a season man.

Another astonishing talent passes us by, but never mind we've still got Wayne and we fecking love him don't we?

Ozil will create about 5 chances every game on his own.Giroud will do fine and they are getting Ba as well apparently.

feck me. What a depressing day
 
I could never see us spending enough to get both Ozil and a CM so atleast get the fecking CM in ffs.

Ok it's depressing when you put it like that but still Rooney to Chelsea would really be shooting ourselves in the foot.
 
Balague talking like it's already done and dusted to Arsenal. Oh well. Next...
 
I don't believe it. Wenger spending that much money on player just doesn't compute.

Even worse that means we're no longer shit transfer window buddies with Arsenal.

He'll create chances that Cazorla/Ramsey/Wilshere/Rosicky would have created. Don't get me wrong, he's a great footballer, but don't think they needed a lot in the creative midfield space.
 
Spare a thought for the Arsenal fans that may well be shitting a brick every time somebody posts a tweet about PSG trying to gazump the deal. :lol:

Willian's gazumping would pale into insignificance if it happens in the Ozil deal.
 
Ozil is one of the best attacking midfielders in the world, but I reckon Suarez would had done more for them than Ozil will.
