Xhaka replacement got the highest vote.
Well, it's going to be replaced by Xhaka himself aye....

Somehow, I still think it might turn out better than we think now. The crazy Ben White signing, and the Martinez rumours...something is just weird... - lets see how this is once the window is over...it might be better than what we think now.RCB got 1 vote as well and we spent 50 mil there
CF with 3 votes - probably one of our most likely signings outside of a #10 as well.
Funny window.
I’ve said this all along but the supposed Xhaka extension (I’m dubious it’s even true) has blown me away.Somehow, I still think it might turn out better than we think now.

That means arsenal mania could run arsenal better than our board.RCB got 1 vote as well and we spent 50 mil there

Yes! And at the end is Arsenal going mid table midfield master XhakaMarket seems to have moved up a gear. Seeing more and more sides finally stepping into the market and closing deals. The Lukaku, Kane and Grealish moves are surely gonna have a domino effect.
On this day in 1999, we signed Thierry Henry, a WC winner but largely unproven. There was excitement and the expectation that he would succeed. I don't get that feeling about any targets. It's buy and hope. Horrible window so far.
I was miserable when we signed Henry because we had just lost Anelka to Madrid, arguably the most promising striker in world football at the time. Henry was awful to begin with - and also a winger not a striker - but it turned out alright. Not saying this window turns out the same, but sometimes it takes a bit of time to assess the signings. ESR might turn out to be the best deal we did this window.Agree except for Lokonga, yet, mind that we seem to have a golden youth academy on the rise, there are many more ESR'ish/Saka'ish youngsters to come.
Patino probably the most exciting one, but Azeez looks to be quite impressive and closer to actual competition just yet.
Might be too soon for Flo, but he looks to have great all around traits. JJ maybe after this season loan as well..
Many potentially exciting things from the inside
Would Arteta go from a 10/10 manager to an 11 or maybe even 12 out of 10 if he signed Vlahovic?I know a lot of people are hooked on Lautaro, but if we're actually in the market for a CF I'd rather we went with someone like Dusan Vlahovic. I sympathize with Fiorentina and saw a fair amount of their games the past season and the kid's legit.
I was desperate for us to sign Chiesa, but I suppose he was always Juventus bound sadly, but I think Dusan is a different case.
Fits perfectly as a lone striker, great physique, can score with any part of his beautiful body, and he can move well both with and without the ball. He's not blind either, and does posses some decent ability to hold-up and spread the play.
Summer ends with Ødegaard and Tammy imo.
Lukaku > Chelsea, Tammy to us.
Pretty **** window. We'll be looking for a new CF in a year or two.
And takes something of a 20/21yo to score 21 in 37 under the Italian Tony Pulis' reign.
You underestimate our willingness to do deals that don’t make much senseYou have no European football and you just gave ESR a no 10. I don’t see how it makes sense to spend big on him just to bench ESR. I think Tammy and a right back being your last signings are more likely than Maddison
This is scarily accurate to my reaction when I saw the news of Xhaka’s extension
I still have hope
