Summer Transfer Window 2021

Young to be retiring but good on him I suppose.

Youā€™d love to see CR7 on the same side as Messi and Neymar. Be some crack.

Makes sense that Liverpool have extended top players contracts now before we sign Mbappe and they try and look for equivalent wages.

Great bit of PR by the Sligo Rovers team.

Suspect all details were handed directly to Mr Romano.

It will cost you 300 euro to get him to make an appearance on your podcast. If you had one that is.

Not much considering the traffic heā€™d generate.

Arsenal doing Arsenal things

Be a good signing for when Conte takes over.

Arsenal are in for Ramsdale, the keeper at Sheff Utd. Great business from the Blades, donā€™t rate him as a keeper and the Gunners are paying a reported Ā£24m for him. You could see Darren Randolph going to Sheffield in his stead.

Iā€™m just seeing on SSN that Robert Lewandowski wants a new challenge away from Bayern Munich, well played sir, Harry Kane must be seething.

The whole village?

Controversial Iā€™m sure @count_of_monte_crist and @gman will agree. A fine tribute to the deceased life-long Gunners fan who the local soccer pitch is named after.

Arsenal have become fairly good at tossing away money on shit players.

Ā£75m on White and Ramsdale. ::grimacing:

Pepe for 75 million must be pound for pound the worst ever. Read he was actually a goalkeeper till the age of 12. A one-footed winger with no pace. You could have prime Dani Alves tearing down on the overlap in 20 yards of space and heā€™d still cut in and put it in the stand.

This lad from Madrid is actually very good but its whether Xhaka and Partey can give him a platform. Presume heā€™ll play off the right. Bellerin is bollixed so will be no help.

You look at some of the moves this summer, you could assemble a decent team for what they paid for Ramsdale and White.

As an expert in EPL money laundering, do you think something is amiss here?

Nope they were regulars for their teams. I just think Arsenal are idiots.

Agreed. They are in an odd spot where they have the revenue to attract decent players but not the manager or recent UCL status so they have to overpay. Itā€™s one thing getting mugged off by overpriced English players but they seem to get mugged off by continental clubs too.

If Wenger came in now, even with the shit squad they have, heā€™d win a cup and have them around top 4. That wasnā€™t enough for them though.

I reckon the manager is Arsenalā€™s biggest issue. Hard to fathom why they have so much faith in Arteta.
