Özil would be an amazing signing, but not signing anyone else is a major bummer. We REALLy needed a striker. Would have overpayed for someone at this point. If Giroud gets injured we're quite screwed.

Well guys talking about strikers Yilmaz is still there and will cost us just 10-12M.

 

[Dial Square 1886]

There is an hour and a half to go and we have to be realistic now...

 

[Buhry]

 

[wishful_llama]

If we don't sign a striker today we have to get one in January.

In the mean time we'll have to wrap Giroud in bubble wrap for the next 4 months

 

[Bourne]

Gutted this means that the Ivan Drago impersonator is likely to be staying now.

Alvaro Levrero ‏@AlvaroLevrero
Speculation in #Uruguay & #Italy about #Palermo striker #AbelHernández could be signing for #Arsenal is not even mentioned by @SkySportsnews

F*ck me. Worst news possible.

 

[Hunta]

I'll take him, he destroyed Tahiti, he can do it in the prem.

 

[GunnerGetYah]

So sad, if he had cemented in well here then he might have been able to push for a perm move.

 

[Cruisio]

We're going to end up in a similar situation that we were in last season where we had to play Gervinho up front in certain games. I can see Walcott and Podolski getting many minutes up front and a lot of pressure put on Sanogo

 

[Kroket]

Signing Özil is terrific but being forced to bring back Bendtner would be a massive disappointment. Can't stand the ****ing **** anymore.

 

[redwhiteAustrian]

Just 90 minutes left, it's Ba or bast (meh).

looks like that higuin deal came back to haunt us, I blame it on suarez

Yeah we messed that one up. I got the impression that if we'd been more decisive we could have gotten that deal done before Napoli came in for him, I may be wrong though.

 

[Lakersgooner24]

Higuain is definitely the one that got away for me this window. Ah well it's water under the bridge now. Just bring in an anybody, I would happily take a Benayoun equivalent striker.

We gambled on getting Suarez instead, didn't pay off and we missed out on Higuain. I don't think this one wasbecuase we were slow for no reason. We tried for someone better. Can't have both.

 

[darthwenger]

Glad to see that I'm not the only one majorly disappointed in not possibly bringing in a striker - Özil great signing - not bringing in a striker considering we've had all summer and sticking with Bendtner is one major ****-up.

Wenger seems to give with one hand and taketh away with the other.

 

[Vinci]

We stuck with Suarez for too long, I think. Should have told them to **** off and should have bought a 15-20M striker.

Someone like Muriel or so. Must be plenty around for that money.

Fck this thread. Someone lock it.

To the 'transfer deadline' thread!
