2020 Transfer Deadline Day

[UpTheGunnerz]

Pretty sure you need a medical to complete a deal but the medical can be done anywhere.

@yousif_arsenal took his med. licence over night and is currently sprinting to Madrid, i am being told

 

[Kakao]

Wait what???? Why did we let Torreira got to Atletico then????? We will go into season with Xhaka, El Neny and Ceballos as only real midfielders?

At Arsenal, we don't put too much emphasis on medicals. Signed Kallstrom with a broken back for example.

 

[SingmeasongSong]

Went to bed around midnight and thought I'd be waking up with that new shiny thread - I can't believe this

 

[roz]

Even by our standards this is depressing.

Going into the season with Xhaka, Ceballos, Willock & El Nen is suicidal.

An injury to Xhaka or Ceballos and its curtains for this season.

Maybe we might see AMN there at some point

Ornstein: Arsenal’s bid to strengthen in central midfield looks set to end in disappointment. Hopes of signing Lyon’s Aouar were dashed over the weekend and barring dramatic late twist, the long-term pursuit of Thomas Partey will go the same way.

So it was them or bust? We have no plan B? then why did we let Torreira go for 2 million? It makes no sense.

Do you completely discard Arteta’s comments from Yesterday, that he feels confident about bringing players in?

 

[GunnerShy]

Wish Ornstein would just hurry up with the no more signings tweet so I can get on with my life, I have sh*t to do yo.

Here mate from the man himself:

Arsenal’s bid to strengthen in central midfield looks set to end in disappointment. Their hopes of signing Lyon’s Houssem Aouar were dashed over the weekend and, barring a dramatic late twist, the long-term pursuit of Thomas Partey from Atletico Madrid will go the same way. Interest in Jorginho is unlikely to progress because Chelsea are reluctant to strengthen a rival, while there is currently no expectation of alternative targets arriving at the Emirates Stadium before tonight’s deadline.

Ornstein has spoken.

• Arsenal’s bid to strengthen in central midfield looks set to end in disappointment. Their hopes of signing Lyon’s Houssem Aouar were dashed over the weekend and, barring a dramatic late twist, the long-term pursuit of Thomas Partey from Atletico Madrid will go the same way. Interest in Jorginho is unlikely to progress because Chelsea are reluctant to strengthen a rival, while there is currently no expectation of alternative targets arriving at the Emirates Stadium before tonight’s deadline. Arsenal are meanwhile attempting to shift players out of the club, with Lucas Torreira and Matteo Guendouzi heading out on loan and others potentially following.

 

[Wryer]

Please.
Don't.
Panic.
Buy.

 

[Wiltord's left boot]

Can someone please explain why we are letting Torreira go if we are not bringing anyone else In?

 

[HairSprayGooners]

I like the sound of a dramatic late twist.

 

[OnlyOne]

I am absolutely lost for words on what a disaster this window has been. We’re going into the new season with a weaker midfield than last year and now only have 3 players at CM, one of which passes like he’s playing rugby.

I’m fuming honestly. Edu should be sacked on the spot.

 

[<<reed>>]

Imagine going into the season with Xhaka, Ceballos, Elneny and Willock.
We had the bottom of the barrel midfield last season and somehow managed to downgrade it further
Finishing 8th would be a huge achievement.

 

[balthazar]

chance for ESR. Seen enough of the Nanny and Granny show. Where are my pills?

[roz]

Yes. Even if we do, it’ll be a panic buy for an inflated price at this stage.

 

[GunnerShy]

We made the part time Gunnersaurus guy redundant.

The guy missed his brothers wedding to attend a home game.

Look forward to Tim Stillman and Benge explaining the massive investment we've made via salaries necessitating that one!

 

[field442]

Ornstein announcing no incomings and Gunnersaurus being made redundant on the same morning.

 

[say yes]

I mean we literally have 3 CMs right now if Torreira and Guendouzi leave. So surely we will bring at least one in..
