Rumours of Lemar signing and Arsenal in talks with PSG for Presnel Kimpembe.

This is getting too much. All these rumours. :lol: :lol: :lol:

So we have Lemar, Mahrez, Lacazette and Kimpembe. What are they smoking there at the Emirates?

Oh! I forgot Mbappe. :tic:

It's fair to say that our best two purchases over the past five years have been Alexis and Santi : two absolute steals ....

The Worst: Ozil by a mile followed closely Callumity Chambers and I'm very worried about Mustafi and Xhacrap. Mustafi is like a ball of nerves with poor body language on the field right now

Bring them on Pa Wenger don vex...Liking what the club is doing so far this summer. Kolasinac, Lacazette.... :thumbs: :thumbs:

Getting Lemar may be difficult based on the noises out of Monaco, so I hope the Mahrez rumour is true (Mahrez for Walcott is the sort of move that makes you feel you are upping your level), he will be devastating for Arsenal on the right wing in a 4-2-3-1 and can maybe play the Sanchez role in a 3-4-3. For me he is one of the best 1v1 players in the league, if not the best.

Sanchez is a great player but if he leaves it is down to us to bring in the sort of quality that ensures we are better than we were last season.

Waffileaks, is the chase for Leon Goretzka still on?

Jack Wilshere removed all Arsenal references from his social media bio prompting rumours of him leaving.

He is not happy with Arsenal due to no contract offer.

Many reckon Wenger will keep him but will wait until he recovers from current injury then decide.

I am confident if Arsenal get all their first choice targets, we will at last be genuine contenders for the title next season. But, many of you here will of course disagree. Fair enough, the game is what it is. We all love The Arsenal and are frustrated with the ways things have panned out in the last two seasons. I say, it will be 3rd time lucky, so I am keeping everything crossed.

The Jeff is injured? Do you guys want to see him promoted, or do you want to see us get a Goretzka? Can he be the back up to Ramsey and Santi?

If the Mahrez rumours are true, then Theo's had it at Arsenal. A real shame.
