[say yes]

Seriously though, who cares? He's dirt cheap and hopefully won't play at all.

You can't get a decent goalkeeper for less than £10m, and there's not much point selling Martinez if we're spending that much on his replacement.

 

[samshere]

Let's not hold him to first choice gk standards.

 

[HairSprayGooners]

Tbf completely forgot we sold Greenwood for 1.5M. His sale covers this, excellent stuff.

 

[Highbury_2006]

Because he seems to be a generally poor goalkeeper who's only real stand out quality is distribution.

Generally poor? Thats probably not fair. According to Statsbomb he is fairly average (read Rex Banners post). Not terrible, not great. Thats acceptable for a number 2.

 

[GDeep™]

Weird. Someone kept saying we’d spend most of the Martinez fee on his replacement.

Thought we’d sign an adequate replacement. Didn’t know we’d go bottom of the barrel like this.

 

[L3T5 PL4Y]

I've just been on a really good date to get back and see we're signing an Icelandic goalie? What a joke.

Who cares to be honest. Priority has been CB and midfield this summer and a 2nd choice GK better than Emi ca be found in January if needed.

I just don't like Puffin hunters.

[Tosker]

at least there will be no obligation to play a second string GK who is much below Leno's level in cup games

 

[OnlyOne]

You meant *puffin shagger*?

No, that's very disrespectful.

 

[Wrighty4eva]

Arsenal move like some weirdos in the transfer market...

Neuer is expensive while Allison want to stay in Liverpool.

Like Willian I guess? You're such a tool.

Bore off you clown.

Still, there's a massive gulf between Leno and this guy. There must be some Ospina level back up's available out there, where there wouldn't be such a massive drop off between numbers 1 and 2.

Ospina only cost us £3.5m after all. I refuse to believe this guy is the best we can do, even on a budget.

Smacks of one of Arteta's coaches trying to get his buddy a move.

I think if Daddy Raul was here we wouldn't even need to get to 5m for a decent back up.

Either of those would have been better choices and would cost nothing.

Its not easy to sign players who are supposed to be on the bench most of season.

 

[El Duderino]

Meh, at least he is dirt cheap. The Raya deal was awful because he didn't seem like a good keeper and we'd be spending most of Emis fee on him.

We move.

 

[jmsmtthw28]

1.5m is pretty good price
He will be on low wages too, sign him on the cheap let him play cup games and invest the rest towards midfielder.

 

[yorch44]

At least the name is cool. Having a Viking in the goal will be exciting
