Hi eds

Absolutely BUZZING to see Ozil has said he wants to stay. Hopefully with the signings of lacazette and Ozils extension, this is enough signal of intent for Sanchez to commit.

I still feel like we need another central midfielder and a winger.

Eds have you heard anything about goretzka. I saw we were linked with him but I've not heard anything since.

Also is there any update on the Lemar/ Mahrez situations since I last asked.

Thanks again Eds. top notch work as always!

He by said staying is his preferred option not that he is signing a new contract, my guess is things will drag on until January with Mesut much like Theo has done twice now resulting in him getting a really good result.

13 Jul 2017 07:12:45
not sure theo was ever in his last year of deal or was he can't remember.

13 Jul 2017 08:48:28
I could be wrong Derby but I think it happend twice with Theo, certainly the last time a couple of years back it was reported in the January he was free to talk to potential new clubs as he was out of contract that summer.
We only ever know what we read but I remember Arsene repeatedly being quoted as saying he was confident Theo would stay even though he could move for free.

12 Jul 2017 17:15:42
lemar close to being done i'm told then great signing and won't be the last. good times.

12 Jul 2017 17:33:38
I will give you your due Derby mate you declared Lacasette a done deal two weeks before even Arsene know it was :-) so we can only hope your on a roll Geeza.
I just hope people listen to you this time and don't give you the thumbs rush :-)

Thumbs up from me derby.

12 Jul 2017 18:42:09
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼.

12 Jul 2017 19:48:57
It's a thumbing old game :-)

12 Jul 2017 20:17:35
Its just clicked derby, your avatar is taking the p1zz mate. lol.

12 Jul 2017 22:40:54
the avatar is the guy I have wanted in since day one. no top4 has shaken the club in a good way I feel tho. looking forward to the new season for once.

12 Jul 2017 14:47:01
Lanesra there are people on here who vote themselves up and vote others down on a systrmatic basis, I even tried on a few occasions to try and catch certain serial voters out whom to me were obviously doing it. I complained to the ed ( who will remain nameless) and I can't vote now and do you know what, its great. All I see is the posts, no thumbs. And I know who the serial abusers are. Sad really, on both our parts.

12 Jul 2017 15:14:17
Steve, for a man who doesn't care about having his thumbs pinched you ain't half going on about thumbs a lot mate :-)
Have you tried asking for them back nicely? :-)

12 Jul 2017 15:51:11
Why does anyone even worry about it. Personally I thumbs down everyone 😂😂.

12 Jul 2017 15:56:31
Tell me about stoner it's proper sad case material.

12 Jul 2017 15:54:04
It's hilarious I can't believe fully grown men are getting all upset about it. So what big deal someone has thumbed down your post. I think if you look it's the individual not the content of the post that gets thumbed down more often than not.

12 Jul 2017 16:27:01
To be fair I put a thumb up if I agree or one down if I disagree. Aside from today. This post and la do da I forgot your name I put one earlier just as banter 😊.

12 Jul 2017 16:28:42
In future I will just reply with this 🖕Or this ⬇️ Or this ✖️ Or this ❌ or of course this 👎🏼and may add the look of, wtf 🙄 to add weight to my disagreement. 😂.

12 Jul 2017 16:28:47
Ha ha sano, i'm not upset, I find it very funny that people do it. But its also a bit sad. Anyway we might have something else to talk about if we sign mabappe. Or matuidi.

12 Jul 2017 16:44:54
I find it funny that people think it's weird to agree or disagree without getting into some large debate. I personally don't use it but now I have found a purpose for using it so il mash the hell out of it lol.

12 Jul 2017 16:57:20
Dags is the worst, he always gives a big thumbs up. Lol.

12 Jul 2017 17:10:52
I don't usually use the thumbs but I went through all Lanesra's posts today and gave each one a thumbs down. I don't even know why I did it, I just did.

Seriously though, it's weird seeing a bunch of grown men having hissy fits over this. I can't even describe this as childish, just pathetic really.

How do you lads deal with disagreements in the real world?

12 Jul 2017 18:37:47
I just start wind milling Sharpie, keeping my thumbs in of course, to avoid a nasty injury. 😁.

12 Jul 2017 08:54:33
Eds. I really understand Ed02. There are some real right miserable ungrateful people on here. You try and have a laugh and lighten the mood and they have to go and be nasty. Thumbs downing people's comments e:g the ones I've just put up. Why!? . It only a laugh. I don't get it with them at all.
I'm glad I'm not around them all day I would be on a never ending downer.
Ed02. There are a lot of good people on here so come back for them mate.

{Ed002's Note - I appreciate it but not right now. Perhaps in a little while.}

12 Jul 2017 10:03:14
Hope you do ed. I'm getting fed up relying on tabloids for my arsenal transfer information. I wish there was a way to filter out the idiots on here. I just wanna enjoy this site for what it is before the usual Arsene put people return mid season 😂.

12 Jul 2017 10:55:05
Come back Ed 002 just ban the 'R' souls that lack a decent brain or appreciation. This page needs Ed 002.

12 Jul 2017 12:15:40
Lanesra, why do you get so annoyed with the "Thumbs down guys"?

It never really bothers me tbh.

12 Jul 2017 14:33:04
The best posters on here don't use the thumbs, they reply so don't take any notice of them, I dont.

12 Jul 2017 15:11:04
Exactly that Steve.

I don't even notice the big red thumb up/ down thing. Well, apart from my own avatar 😁.

12 Jul 2017 15:16:36
Dags.
It's not so much annoyed mate it's the fact that I'd like to know why they do it Dags. Remember the old keyboard warriors just the same mate.

12 Jul 2017 16:41:33
Thumbs up = agree
Thumbs down = disagree

So at a guess I think they do it because they disagree
Hope that helps.

12 Jul 2017 18:29:32
Sano, yes that's right but only one thumb from me not the 35 some people do. Lol.

12 Jul 2017 18:39:05
I did 87 in a single day once steve, all on the United page. 👍🏼.

12 Jul 2017 18:57:27
It depends how much you disagree steve. Sometimes the 35 👎🏻 Is less hassle than trying to explain things to sum. Remember you can teach a tricky pig but you can't educate pork 👍🏻.

12 Jul 2017 20:15:24
Ha ha very thummy.

12 Jul 2017 00:01:42
I've just arrived in Sydney. Guess who I bumped into in Australias supermarket called Walternrosie Mate Mart. Bit like Waitrose.
Wenger!
He couldn't believe it when he saw me.
I was a bit embarrassed when he crept up behind me and shouted " Oi what you doing here? "
I said "Av a word Arsene mate I'm doing a bit of shopping. what's going on with these rumours then? ".
With that he winked at me whispered then tapped the end of his nose ( which was no mean feat I might add) as if he was telling me a secret and said "Wait and see. Anyhow are you coming back to the hotel to see the boys? . "
I was in a bit of a rush so I couldn't accept but I said to him to give me a call tomorrow and I would see what I was up to .
I'll keep you all updated.

12 Jul 2017 08:22:36
Why the thumbs down? There is a miserable sod on here or maybe more than one.
Miserable sod reveal yourself!

12 Jul 2017 10:00:23
Lanesra - I refrained from thumbs downing but that Waitrose joke (if indeed it was supposed to be a joke) was diabolical! Wilshere one was ok, but I'd advise you stick to the humouros rumours!
😉.

12 Jul 2017 10:19:38
SCAR. I suppose you like Dags jokes better? 😂😂😂.

12 Jul 2017 14:49:15
You're one up on Dags Lanesra!
