Cazorla is still suffering tendon issues he had last season so i wouldnt say our midfield is that great with both him and Jack looking dodgy for the start of the season, although with Elneny, Xhaka and Coquelin were not short on defensive mids for a change.

With injuries mounting up before we've even kicked a ball and our half-hearted, half-baked transfer actively it looks like we can expect another frustrating and ultimately fruitless season ahead.

Surely Fonte at 9m is a better prospect

Not a chance for Fonte I hope !!

Really really good player... only showed a fraction of what he is capable of in the Euros... would not be cheap though, I think Wolfsburg paid 40m for him, so you have to be in the 60m range...

I would be extremely happy with him and Mahrez. Either convert him to a forward like we did RvP or throw Alexis up as a CF.

Looks like we have bigger support in Norway than I realised. Currently on the ferry to Stavanger for tonight's game and it's packed with Gooners. A good mix of old and very young, so a lot of future generations of fans.

Seeing a lot of Xhaka shirts too.

Joel Campbell having a cracking game tonight.......is he not now going out on loan?

I thought he was up for sale....I'd rather Walcott was!

A career that promised so much but has ultimately delivered so little. Walcott is the epitome of Arsenal over the last 10 years.

Anyone got an idea how Alfa will vote

Wenger OUT, Simeone in!

Tuchel is a good shout but not a possible choice.

I'm in two minds, Arsene is a legend and I love him for what he's done for the club and one day I hope we can read the true story about all of this in his autobiography. However something is fundamentally wrong at the club and a change in manager is possibly what we need.

Sorted that

Gets my vote.

Gabriel stretchered off in the last minute or so of the Man City friendly. No way he's fit for next weekend.

Walcott scored the kind of goal that makes you just so frustrated....scored a great goal.

[NordicCrankShaft]

Gabriels injury looking possibly serious....

A growing injury list before we've even kicked a ball in anger. Complete incompetence in the transfer market. This club is in the worst state it's been since the 1980's .

I now think a lot of our failure in the transfer market is because Wenger is our manager and potential targets see the complete failure he has presided over for the last 10-12 years and don't see Arsenal as a viable club to achieve their ambitions. I pray this is his last season in charge.
