Of course my favorite non-City player is going to United. Of course.

There's still time for The Greatest Striker That Ever Lived to ruin things, though.

and right on cue, the reports now are Bendtner rejected yet another club and is staying.

Re: The Transfer Thread

Ozil speaks about Arsenal, so I guess it's finally official

Fellaini staying at Everton? My god this has been brutal.

Re: The Transfer Thread

Is it only me who is seeing Ozil as a bad transfer? Arsenal have Cazorla, Wilshere and Ramsey so, in my opinion, don't need to strengthen in that area. Add to that the huge fee paid, I'm just a bit confused. Surely a striker or a defender would be a better addition?

Considering how oft-injured Wilshere is? Ramsey is just coming into his own, so what he brings consistently remains to be seen. Bringing in a World Class player is something I can hardly see as a "bad transfer" would've liked a few other things as well, but at least we got a superb player for depth.

The team has needs, but you don't turn down the opportunity to sign someone like Ozil when he becomes available. Striker is still needed, but make no mistake, Ozil makes this team way way better

Lukaku to Everton on loan

Re: The Transfer Thread

The Club is delighted to announce the signing of Elsad Zverotić from BSC Young Boys on a two-year contract with a further option. #FFC #COYW

That is apparently a person who exists. I don't know a lot once it gets outside England.

I would have liked a striker, but I'm okay with Podolski being Giroud's backup in that area.

Now you have a midfield trio of Ramsey, Ozil, and Arteta/Wilshere, with Walcott on the right and Cazorla on the left, all feeding Giroud. That attacking force has the potential to be downright scary, and I didn't even include the quality backup options like Ox, Rosicky, Podolski, and Flamini. Add all this to the fact that Arsenal were the #2 defense in the EPL last season and the team is looking strong.

Could Arsenal have used another striker and defender? Absolutely, but the club is still in great shape.
