Because of our own awful mismanagement of the transfer window. We still need a CB and DM = Arsenal don't know how to do transfer windows.
I don't disagree, and I accept we can't compete with clubs who want to spend £200m+ in a single window, but my concern is that we target players who are excess to requirements for the top clubs. Welbeck would be 4th choice at Utd yet he immediately becomes our first choice....
I am not that annoyed about Welbeck think he has the quality to be great and most importantly blooded in the BPL. My frustration is we are doing this stuff hours before the deadline day shuts with still a CB and a DM needed.
At least AFC have let that welsh **** from SSN into the Emirates to get away from those pricks outside
Not quite sure how the club have failed to bring in any defender at all, Wenger made it pretty clear a while back they were looking to..
This time last year you were after Suarez and signed Ozil on deadline day. This year your happy to sign Welbeck....seriously?
It's an embarrassment of a signing given what we've needed and what AW has said this window. Complete shambles.
lol, that couldn't exactly be a clerical error. "Monsieur Wenger, I just found out I forgot to send those transfer request faxes last month"
