We don't even need a world class defender. Just someone better than Lovren. We signed Matip for free, and i dont watch much German football so I knew nothing about him, and he is better than Lovren, so how hard has it been for our scouts this summer.
Citeh given up on Sanchez. Means Lemar has definitely turned Arsenal down. Citeh will get Sanchez on a free in the summer my guess and Arsenal will be more ****ed than they are now.
I actually think the biggest problem for Arsenal is that he clearly looks like he cant be fu<ked to be there. He will be a bigger problem throughout the season more so than the loss of money.
TBH that looks like most of there team. Arsenal are going to struggle this season, Everton, Soton and West Brom all could finish above them this season. (along with the other usual suspects of course)
So.... sahko gone. Good for all. 26 eventual is decent consider g what we did to him over the 12 months... reality is 40mil was prob possible he wasn't a doodle. Still a profit on him. Adding up all the outs thus far and ins and its not a huge spend. It's a pity we have focused on players klopp gets a hard on watching and not pragmatic matters but then... well we will just have to enjoying til It goes tits up and make do with that. It should be a fun season mostly. Maybe January but that's a pain hope with klopp.
Yeah unless there is some dispensation that allows late registration due to the game. The price quoted arsenal bid is just not possible

However, today he turned down the opportunity. Perhaps he is holding out for a Spanish giant like Barcelona to come in for him - and their window doesn't close until tomorrow night... Or perhaps he really was hoping to sign for the club who's name you've avoided saying all day ya manc twat.
Thankfully as some tumbleweed tolls by at Southampton sky hear a lone voice screaming out a window Virgil ain't going anywhere. Not sure who they are shouting at mind.....
What an anti climax. What thE f#ck do it do with this case of beer and the entire night? France v NL on TV. Will see what all the fuss was about with Lemar....
Well if The Dutch lose tonight Soton can pretty much say goodbye to the idea that VvD will need to play for a WC place.
