People slating mahrez? Imagine wanting a move from an average team that you took to new levels. He would be excellent in an Arsenal shirt. I think if I played with Wes Morgan I'd have a sulk on aswell. wasnt like he was totally rubbish for Leicester last year was still one of there better performers. The whole team had issues last year and as a winger there's not to much you can do about that. MAHREZ IN!

05 Jul 2017 23:42:55
I wouldn't say no dolally but I do prefer other players and him and ozil in the same team would worry me a little.

06 Jul 2017 00:15:59
Wes Morgan has a premier league winners medal, how long since anyone got even close to that in an Arsenal shirt?
Bit more respect due here towards Wes Morgan me thinks.

06 Jul 2017 07:10:11
So did Mahrez.

06 Jul 2017 08:08:41
A lot of players have a premiers league medal. I remember watching Wes Morgan at turf moor in a forest shirt lose 5-1 at the hands of Austin and co for Steve mcclaren and he was by far the worst player. What I'm saying is a footballers career is short and what mahrez did for that club he should have been allowed to leave last summer.

06 Jul 2017 10:11:35
Do what your actually saying Dolally is Mahrez should have been allowed to leave a bunch of premier league winning losers while Sanchez should stick around with an outstanding group of 4th place champions hopefuls?
Sounds like a reasonable argument, I'm sure every intelligent and football fan across the world would understand your logic, no wonder people don't take us seriously anymore.

We must remember what people have done, when slating them
I won't list Arsene achievements, I sure you know the ALL
😀👍.

06 Jul 2017 11:09:18
Hi Welsh mate, I'm not sure what Dolallys achievements are and because he is the only one I'm slatting I'm not sure I understand your reply either mate :-)
I just don't get all this putting others achievements down as if they were some lucky fluke while playing our own achievements up no matter how long ago up.
Yes we were once the invincibles and yes we have won 3 out 4 fa cups but I don't see how either of those things mean Wes Morgan needs to be slatted for leading a group of underdogs to footballs greatest shocks of all time.
We need to concentrate on rebuilding our own reputation within the game not trying to undermine others.

I was ment as a bit off banter. We should respect everybody.
Except sulky Sanchez. Jesus Christ they have supposedly offered 275k.
How do you exsplain that to the working man who is on 30k a year.
Aw I'm getting wound up again now.

05 Jul 2017 22:13:15
So we add what we have really really missed - never replaced TH14

Now let's keep Sanchez - 400k per week? Let's do the maths, that's the equivalent of a 59m signing plus 210k per week for 5 weeks. May be 350k per week is a worthwhile compromise.

Let's replace PV4 and add a centrehalf

Lastly a winger

Welcome to Arsenal Alex.

I'm thinking that he doesn't want to play under Wenger.
It's not a wage issue because when you get to his level and wealth the money is nice but it's hardly a deal breaker.
As I said before. Sanchez has been playing back to back
games virtually since last season along with the confederations cup. He's only human so I believe he's due a burn out and will need to be rested or he is bound to get an injury which will put him out. Another question is if he mentally wants to leave why would you take the chance and make him stay? . Whether he's professional or not All it needs is a few bad performances and his head wil drop and his performance will suffer rapidly. I'm of the opinion if a player is not happy and it seems the case between him and Wenger then let him go. We want players that are mentally positive too.

06 Jul 2017 08:43:48
Sanchez has been playing every summer for the last 4 years Copa America world cup confederation cup and he and Chilli have gone a long way in all those tournaments too, but the man just loves playing football and he is extremely competitive and wants to win every competition let alone every game.
Personally I'd like to see him stay but I think he's earned ( earned being the opperative word) the right to chose his own future and if we can't convince him he can be competitive at Arsenal we should let him go with nothing but gratitude.
If the rest of the team and everyone at the club had shown the same desire as Alexis Sanchez there simply wouldn't be a problem.
Our bad not his we created this situation the man deserves our respect what ever he choses to do.

06 Jul 2017 10:02:26
I'm not talking about desire Gunner that goes without saying. I'm stating that he's going to get an injury which is going to keep him outt. He's knocking on 30 now. I think he's dodged the bullet so far. So god forbid for him, if he does get injured I would rather it not when he's wearing the Arsenal shirt. It's a case of when not if I think.

05 Jul 2017 19:25:45
Ed. With AL now signed up and looking good in Red and white do you think that's our business down or do you expect another signing and who?

{Ed025's Note - i expect a couple in paul and a few out mate, this lacazette deal will start the domino effect i believe and we will see the market really start moving now, and i expect arsenal to be readily involved..

05 Jul 2017 20:07:07
There has to some leavers before we make any more signings. We are forward heavy now so expect Perez to leave next and campbell, Gibbs and Dubuchy most likely aswell. I hope Giroud stays tbh as he offers a good target man option, also would like to keep OX but I think h will struggle to get in the team ion the centre position he wants so can see hiom leaving . Sanchez I am just not sure where is head is at really very 50/ 50 to me. It's not looing good for Cazorla so I can see him maybe being released and I would also allow Wilshire to leave so to make room for a midfielder. I think Marhaz is on only if Sanchez leaves. Wenger is after Lemar I think.

05 Jul 2017 21:50:32
I think we should make Sanchez see out his contact! For me with Sanchez it's a unique situation as the guy will still give 100% for us. Get some other top signings and really give this season a go. Let's show him that we are a top club with ambition and a year is a long time in football. If the time comes and he leaves on a free I feel Bayern will come into it and be the likely destination. It's a gamble we must take imo. We now need to replace cazorla and find a more dynamic right winger who can offer more than Walcott.

05 Jul 2017 22:47:06
buzzing for lacazette ways been a fan since youtube in june lol joking. sanchez i'd rather take the cash and move on. fekir would not be a bad buy I don't think.

05 Jul 2017 23:28:31
Keeping sanchez next season would be the difference between getting into top four and not, if he went. If he doesn't sign at the end of hid contract, he would still pay for himself.

06 Jul 2017 20:05:19
if city are getting him i'd rather get the cash then see him there on a free. would be rubbed him our faces weekly.

05 Jul 2017 16:46:48
Steve. r ANNOUNCE LACAZETTE!

05 Jul 2017 16:57:52
Ha ha, is he having a wobble. Lol.

05 Jul 2017 17:01:45
Its ok he was announced at five oclock to coincide with the french stock exchange closing. Apparently.

05 Jul 2017 18:02:57
Yes, he has been announced now finally.

05 Jul 2017 12:53:34
Bearing in mind Santi looks likely to miss the whole of next season, perhaps we should keep Wilshere at the club. In addition we should keep Chambers and Szczesny as well, With Kolasinac and Lacazette, if we can keep Ozil. Ox. Sanchez and Bellerin, we could be in with a shout of the title.

05 Jul 2017 14:15:35
Lacazette will fit in lovely at arsenal, going from one Europa league club to another lol. We will go close to winning the title says deluded R. G. Like Jim would say in the royle family my arse.

05 Jul 2017 17:16:02
And another winger 🤗.

05 Jul 2017 22:12:18
Raver my old mate. When it comes to the europa your Spurs fans are the fountain of knowledge.

Guess we will see you after the first round, if you can sneak 3rd.
I know Wembley is your new home. Not many leave from their happy, well only the few away fans do.

05 Jul 2017 07:52:22
Is mahrez going to happen I have not seen anywhere that we have put a bid in.

05 Jul 2017 08:09:29
Depends on the Sanchez situation.

05 Jul 2017 11:33:59
I hope Mahrez isn't the answer if Sanchez leaves, his attitude seemed rotten at times last year and he's not the same level as Alexis either.

Replacing Alexis is going to take 2 players, or an absolute record amount. Why oh why we didn't sign Draxler when given the chance is beyond me!

05 Jul 2017 17:12:58
Show a bit of ambition and sign a world class winger and I think Sanchez will stay if we don't he will go.
