Tiresias Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Criminal. It's not even like a lot of of the ludicrous over spending was sensible business either. And they got 200m for Neymar. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they got 200m for Neymar. Coutinho, Dembele and Griezmann are 3 of the worst signings of all time for the money they paid for them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Weren't they paying Messi like 700k a week? I get it, it's Messi and he's probably worth it, but got to wonder how much that skews the rest of the wage bill? Coutinho isn't going to come to them for £150m or whatever it was and get paid a fraction of what Messi earns. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Coutinho was one of the best players I have seen at St James, has he had injuries at Barca or something cos I thought that was a nailed on great transfer even for the money they paid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read an article that made this exact point, Messi's wage set the bar for everyone else coming in and they had to pay them to get them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 A rare decent bit of business by Arsenal who have seemingly found cash for players who will not move them up the league enough to earn it back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 I still think White will be a cracking signing. Ramsdale could go either way. Young for a keeper and his record over two seasons is similar to Pickford at the same stage. One of Pickford’s seasons was with a top 10 team and he still conceded a load.

Guest neesy111 Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Yeah, White will prove to be an asset eventually. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 (edited) Didn't realise Ramsdale's age, maybe not the worst move in the world if they really think he can kick on then. Arsenal are mental, what do they actually need you think in order to improve? They've got a lot of pieces but they never seem to be fit enough to get going, Thomas DM & Gabriel CB should both be good enough imo, their full backs aren't bad on paper but despite having £200m of strikers they just seem to lack a proper focal point that can bring the likes of Saka, ESR and so on into the game. They should have brought Giroud back tbh, or someone that can play with their back to goal and bring others into play. Keeper Bellerin White Gabriel Tierney Thomas Xhaka/Lokonga ESR Odegaard Saka Giroud type Some variation of that would surely give them more stability and actually play to the strengths of their players, but would mean abandoning Auba, Laca & Pepe or at least 1/2 of them Oh yeah and Thomes/Gabriel never fit obvs Edited August 18, 2021 by mrmojorisin75 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
