Wenger lurks somewhere in FIFA. Trust that he's got our back if Kroenke or Arteta sends a distress signal.
Another charity donation to Saints. Nothing good came our way from them.

This is so simple yet people make it so complicated. He was brought in because we've only got one actual RB and he himself has had injury issues in recent times. Arteta has bemoaned the fact that he's had to play a winger and a midfielder as his full-backs. AMN has said on numerous occasions that he wants to be considered as a midfielder an rightly or wrongly doesn't want to be tied down to being a RB. This is literally a risk free transfer, if he's absolutely horrendous he'll not be here after this season. Also FWIW Cedric has also played LB at times so the added versatility might have been a factor.

Yeah, I mean we didn't actually buy a Southampton winger who scored over 100 goals for us (several in cup finals, CL knock-out ties, Sp**s and Chelsea derbies).

I'm sure if a few of these kinds of signings fail (I'm still suspicious of the Denis Suarez one), Edu and Sanhelli will be under a lot of pressure. But anyways it doesn't look too well so far.
I know many rate Walcott but I don't. Stats aside, and nice words from Pep back in the day don't change the fact that he was never able to be consistent and help us to even a flimsy title challenge. He flattered to deceive and his money for nothing contract was the source of anger (eventually) amongst many Gooners. We'll have to disagree on this.

League is very weak
He joined in an era where we were doing well just to finish top 4. Guys like Walcott, Giroud, Ramsey etc were signed for 30M, always got us top 4, scored and assisted in over 350 goals.

Time to play another round of AM’s “you’re either world class or you’re ****!”
I'm not talking about lots of past players it's just my opinion that players we've bought from Southampton haven't been that great for us. Compare Bale at Sp**s and VVD at Liverpool. There's always Schneiderlin so we're not alone.
Nope. Just have a negative thing about players we've bought from Southampton.
Solid squaddie. Always been a fan of his. Happy to have him. Bellerin and Cédric are quality RB options.

Welcome to Cedric- I’m a fan of signings with prem experience we never do enough of those.
Side note but Walcott had a fantastic career with us btw. Mainly ruined by unrealistic expectations and injuries, but he had special moments with us for sure. Plus he’s a centurion.
His lack of natural technique and genuine love for football ultimately held him back from being truly elite, but his Arsenal career is absolutely nothing to be ashamed of - he was great for us.

I know people say AMN is a solid right back and good cover for Hector, but he isn't a natural there and sometimes gets exposed. And he doesn't like playing there.
We also need cover for Lucas Torreira whose role has taken extreme importance under Arteta. None of our other midfielders apart from AMN have a similar skill set and the pace and energy levels required for that role.
If Cedric allows us to give Torreira a rest, with AMN playing his favoured position, then that's a smart sigining. He has experience in this league and shouldn't take too long to bed in. And if he does struggle then at least we still have AMN..

Can't make his mind up
Just read he won’t be ready to play until March given his injury. Is that true?

Raul Sanllehi must‘ve collected quite a lot of money for this transfer to happen, good on him, he truly has a big **** energy about him. Except that we‘re getting f*cked.
