It’ll still be Xhaka next to or behind Aouar
Yeah I know, Xhaka and Mustafi are gonna be playing here until they're 40 then get a coaching role then be on the board until they're 80. Won't ever get rid of them.

My fighter pilot mate, Toby, just texted me, reckons a private jet from Lyon is scheduled to land at RAF Northolt at 4:10pm gmt. The only one from Lyon all week.
My astronaut mate, Lawrence, backs that up. Texted me saying he's seen it from the space station.

Some virginal comments in here. Aouar will be an Arsenal player this window. Did he make The French squad? I'm guessing yes, but it would be nice if he could spend some time settling in to London.

Two transfer windows that ****ed us over big time. The one where we signed only Cech and the one we splashed cash on Mustafi, Xhaka and Perez.

Every window from 2014-2018 set us back. With Saliba seemingly not in the plans this season, it can be argued that last seasons window set us back as well.

We were better off when we were broke tbh.
Yep, the performances got progressively worse as we started spending more money post 2013.
Because we just buying without thinking and sold very cheaply

Saliba was/is young enough to be classed as an investment though. You can’t stop signing what’s perceived as the best young talent when you get the chance just because you need players ready to contribute now. Until he plays, nobody can say it was a wasted window.
Don't get me wrong I think he has a lot of potential, but given the state of the team, could we really afford to spend 30million on a player that won't contribute anything over a 2 year period? If we don't make the required signings in the next few days, the opportunity cost of that deal will be massive.

I’m reading this thread like this.
As soon as we signed Willian I knew this was going to happen which is why I said it will be a 4/10 window around a month ago and I got laughed at.

That's not true though.

If we don’t, then I think it’s fair to say the Saliba signing impacted our spending this window to a degree, but covid ultimately will have had the bigger say. I wouldn’t go back on the Saliba deal now though regardless. It’s water under the bridge and we need to tackle new obstacles.
We were a regular CL club before that period. Maybe I should say post 2014 as 13/14 was a good season. Since then though results and performances have gone downhill, I dont see how that can be up for debate?
