Re: The Official Summer Transfer Rumours Thread

[Jay29]

Here's some Internet Bullshit Artist twitter stuff for you:

Arsenal had all their eggs in the Vardy basket. Were convinced he was going to join. No plan B.

Arsenal are looking for a striker but number of targets dwindling.

I 100% believe this because having no plan b in the transfer market is absolutely an Arsenal thing to do.

[Chumlum]

Some options that haven't gotten much play ...

Jonatan Soriano
Paco Alcacer
Inaki Williams
Ayoze Perez
Kevin Gameiro

These aren't endorsements, just names - I suspect one or two of them will still be linked to Arsenal over the next few months anyway. What if one of them were to offer dat dere striker magic?

[Kaladin]

I'm wondering why Arsenal dont go for Bacca? He's roughly the same price as Vardy (25m-30m), same age, has a good goal record in the Europa league. Honestly seems a much better gamble than Vardy, he's been feeding off scraps last season at Milan and ended with 18 goals, i imagine with Ozil and co he'd fit right in

One of the most clinical finishers in Europe too. Was thinking this as well.

[El Gunner]

Yea let's go for Bacca.

RG, get on it

[RealGunner]

According to ESPN Arsenal have offered Wolfsburg €50m for Julian Draxler

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

Draxler is amazing tbh.

Love this signing

Arsene4lyf

[Jay29]

Pretty sure ESPN just took the France Football story and added their own spin to it. Doesn't look reliable at all.

[RealGunner]

Been wanting Draxler ever since I saw reports Wenger will turn him into RVP

love Draxler

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

France Football

Marquinhos' brother tells L’Equipe Arsenal are interested in signing him, adding to Man United and Chelsea.

[RealGunner]

I'd take him

[Sri]

I dreamt that I woke up to a dreamy announcement in the wake of Wenger securing a deal for Draxman.

It is legit.

I'm telling you, it is going to happen.

[Sina]

I Prefer Stones but would take either
lol as if these players are waiting for us

[Sina]

L'Equipe: Arsenal want LOSC defender Djibril Sidibé. Close to Monaco few days ago, Arsene Wenger stepped up interest in the last 48 hours

[RealGunner]

That sounds a lot more likely than Koulibaly or Marquinhos lol

[Sina]

can play RB/LB hope it means Jenks/Debuchy leaving but Gibbs stays
sounds like poor mans Aurier the way ppl describe him

[RealGunner]

Well he is 6ft and can play both sides so signing him as a squad player wont be bad if both Gibbs and Debuchy are leaving.

[Jay29]

We do need a right back to compete with Bellerin.

[RealGunner]

Yea. Need to sell Jenkinson before he starts having these idea of him being a squad player.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

We do need a right to compete with Bellerin.

IMO.

[RealGunner]

Di Marzio says our interest in Sidibè is for real. Deal close to being done


Actually not mad. Not watched a single Lille match so won't say how he is like but for a squad player he doesnt sound too bad.

Hope he has 85+ pace

[Hapless_Hans]

We do need a right back to replace Bellerin.

Agree. Won't be easy though.

[urbaNRoots]

Get it done and bin Debuchy. Surely Sidibe is better than him.

Although that name suggests average.

[RealGunner]

Sidibe and Djibril are 2 of the shittiest names going.

[Hapless_Hans]

'Quaresma' is the greatest name of all IMO. Hulk a close second.
