Wenger signed both Mustafi and Lucas last year due to fan pressure. Wenger did not want to sign mustafi and looked at Kostas Manolas first to no avail. I think Wenger now is letting them both go in order to prove a point. Due to Wengers stubborness I don't think we'll buy anyone, and even if we do because he has left it so late the prices will be massively over inflated and they will ultimately be panic buys after what was probably.

Nonsense. When has Wenger ever done anything due to fan pressure. He signed them because of a team need and tried to budget buy. Letting both go is a mistake, plenty others I'd release before them.

I've read that Wenger has said or at least is inclined to not sign anyone and wait for VvD and Lemar in January or next summer. As neither mustafi or perez were first choice i'd say that these signings were due to fan pressure, and panic buys after another embarrassing loss to the scousers last season.

The signings were due to Wenger missing his original targets because of his stubborness. He wouldn't spend money to keep fans happy, what sort of a statement is that.
