The almighty 2016-2017 summer transfer window thread

Lies.

You believe every other shit news out there that fit your agenda but not this.

Do one

No, I don't believe any of the news. And I have no agenda.

I was reading about how Walcott needs to be sold, and people think that he can bring in over 20 million pounds. Such delusion! On those wages, you'd have to pay a club to take him.

Loooool Emanuelle Gianelli is an absolute fraud

Well thats more or less all people involved in sport journalism. Yet we still use other journalist info as valid and we have heated discuss based on the given informations.

#AFC interested in signing Valencia defender Mustafi. No bid yet + others inc #CFC keen. Also want a striker but not pursuing Mahrez/Draxler

— David Ornstein (@bbcsport_david) August 4, 2016

This is opposite to everything we heard last month from lot of sport TV/newspapers. So who is right. Who is fraud.

Ornstein is essentially an Arsenal mouthpiece.

Szczesny Loan deal is done. He will be Roma player this season.

Wenger speaks of the importance of maintaining team harmony when making additions via transfer, but isn't waiting until August to try and do business disruptive to team harmony? Even if they fail to sign anyone, the players on the squad must suffer the distraction of not knowing if some player will be brought in to take their job 2 weeks into the premier league season.

If you are going to do transfer business get it done in July.

Wenger speaks of the importance of maintaining team harmony when making additions via transfer

He can speak all he wants but there is no evidence to this being true. Some clubs have added 6-7 first team players and picked up a trophy 10 months later, and some clubs have done only a few transfers over a long period and never won anything.

Exactly. It's total bullshit. What irks me the most about it is that this team is never in harmony. It's a constant crisis. Every year, they start the season with a shortage of defenders, no appealing option up top, and half the first team looking over their shoulder because of all the transfer rumors. Just get the transfer business mostly done by early July, and then take the position that if a great deal comes along, you take it.

Wenger: "money is not a problem for arsenal in the transfer market"

Agreed! Wenger and the board are what prevent arsenal from doing business!

Good article on what is wrong with wengers transfer policy.

Started reading and stopped at the "When you've lost your most senior defender and you're scrambling around for a replacement, you're panic buying."

Absolute bollocks. I can puke a better article than that.

Alexandre Lacazette will cost £60 million as Lyon look to keep striker

This is beyond stupid now. IF true ofc.

who will leave if mahrez arrives

Mahrez will be transformed into a striker and he'll be better than Suarez.

But the rumors about Mahrez were again from new twitter acount.

Skysport denied the bids. Arsenal have not made a £30m bid for Leicester City winger Riyad Mahrez, according to Sky sources.

Lewandowski Griezman and Mahrez will all join us. We're also buying 20 centerhalves as fans have suggested.
