Just keep bidding until Ozil and Alexis sign new contracts then pull out of the deal

According to Ornstein (and common sense) there has not been a bid made. Which really can not be too surprising to anyone.

I could see Arsene making a cheeky £20m + Giroud bid, but that's it.

Edit: Oops, he's now saying the club are not denying they made a bid. In that case, my above joke is actually now most likely reality.

Careful you don't violate the TOS with statements like that. Religious discussions are a no-no. 😆

Pictures of Wenger in Nice with representatives of Mbappe are moving around the web. Maybe Arsenal are serious after all about trying to sign him.

I just...still can't believe it.

Apparently, Juventus are ready to buy Szczesny for £14m. If that's true, we better have a plan, because if they feel good enough about signing him, we should feel good enough about keeping him.

Unless of course he wants to leave.

Taking a moment to stop laughing at Arsenal and look at it objectively, I actually don't think it's completely outside the realm of possibility.

It's pretty obvious the kid likes RM and Zidane, but if he's not ready to make the jump to RM yet, then following in the footsteps of his country's greatest ever striker wouldn't be THAT bad either. Wenger can probably promise to make him the first choice striker, something a lot of clubs at that level probably wouldn't offer.

If he's good enough he will land himself at RM eventually anyway.

Saw this on the Daily Mail:

Bets suspended on Van Dijk
Take it as you will, but bookmakers Ladbrokes have announced they are suspending all bets on Southampton defender Virgil van Dijk to move to Liverpool.
The Reds are keen admirers of the Dutchman, with Jurgen Klopp believed to be hopeful of building his defence around him ahead of the club's return to the Champions League.
Liverpool face still competition from Manchester City and Chelsea, though are willing to match their competitors financially in order to secure their target.

Reports are he wants to go to Liverpool because he's been promised a key role. Now to get the deal done.
