Wenger's Transfer Targets- Summer 2015

[redanddread]

The last thread of this kind was based on information from a lying fool on twitter, this one is based on what one of our directors has said.

maybe the lying fool wasn't lying because unless I completely misunderstood what Lord Harris said, he's basically corroborated what the lying fool had intimated!

the player wants to leave and yet Reus has just signed a new contract removing a very reasonable buy-out clause - dosnt make any sense at all

Take your point however, his reasons for 'wanting to leave' might not reflect on Dortmund, just his ambitions, CL etc.
Playing devils advocate, your point about signing a new contract to quash the reasonable buyout clause is a great gesture that we have seen other players leave after time and again knowing their parent club has been properly recompensed.

Nah it's Reus lads, £50m + Gnabry loan, or whatever...Remember who said it. hehe

This thread has license to get wild & wooly because anyone bar Messi & Ronaldo is game now.........fire away.

Lord Harris never said that we will make the signing of the summer.

your right dread, but to be fair I'm sure many of us could've dreamt up an identical scenario. Wenger, whilst notoriously stubborn, or as I like to see it 'full of mental strenx and conviction', isn't blind or stupid.
Listening to his recent interviews he has admitted many frustrations under the stringent era.....
He's got his mojo back, and is about to make it rain *****ez!!!

I want either Lewandowski or Mueller a proper striker out and out number 9 a fox In the box.... Second option would be Benzema - third would be dzeko until one of the other three are available

But isn't that exactly what he's saying??? A superstar striker-that would be the signing of the summer mate.

This hurts:
according to the german tabloids, 100Mn offer for muller from United.

Nice list but Dzeko over Reus? Or even Greizman?

Oh Jaysus-why do we have another thread that will just wander into oblivion........It's getting out of hand man......all the same arguments will be rehashed here. Sheesh.

The Bezema thread was immediately over run with talk of this, and people were speculating about all sorts of players, posting links about Welbeck going to Turkey, etc.

If this gets out of hand it'll be locked. Lets keep it on topic.

It's been plain obvious to me this summer that Wenger wants to buy a superstar player but they don't grow on trees & in much the same way he stealthily snaffled up Cech, Sanchez & Özil, he's on the hunt again but he has to wait until the "big" boys start flashing the coin to see what becomes available. The biggest stars are at 3-4 clubs and once they start shaking the pennies around nice things drop out of their pockets. There hasn't been a real MAJOR signing yet this summer.

Can't see Wenger going for Benzema. He's ****, and a bottler.

I thought that the renamed "Silly transfer rumour" which was originally the "signing of the summer" thread could have sufficed-now we have two that basically carry the same vibes.
Anyways it's all fun & now we have our own Board members trolling us......

Absolutely agree. To add to that he is also a sucker for great talent at a fair price, I wouldn't rule out a versatile fwd in favour of a strict CF.

........Reus it is

I have my heart set on one of the other three and would rather keep funds for them, plus I think dzeko could do a good job for us...

Doubt anyone actually want to live in Manchester.

That was me sorry didn't mean to trash the thread

Bro, this isn't about doing a job for us anymore. We've lived that dream for the last few years. This is about busting out the cheque book, scribbling lots of zero's all over the place and buying the best.

The biggest reason for Reus to leave. having just signed a contract - would be that Jurgen Klopp left - something I dont think Reus would have expected at the time he signed his new contract.
