Looks better than Orban.
But surely this is just a non starter. He's Gooners scum. Also point to the fact they already rejected about 40m for him from Monaco.

Spurs, sorry, gonna need you to stay away and not ruin him.
The only possible way we would get Balogun is if Woolwich sold him to another club first.
I can’t believe this rumour is still going around
...teamnewsandtix?
Sounds funky, but are we genuinely in a position to be playing what would essentially be 2 x #10s (and just pretending they are #8s because it looks sexy on paper)?
I think someone posted that Rennes manager Bruno Génésio used to manage Ndombele. And Rennes may be selling Doku?
Edit: LOL I did not see your post on P2113..
As I say, maybe we did, maybe we didn't - neither you nor I know. But if we did - and we might have, it makes sense - then that would be a legitimate reason for not going after Tapsoba.
There is a huge difference between having no competition for places, and signing a player who starts in a position, then signing another player expecting to oust him from that starting place just 2 weeks later. Of course competition for places is good, but a). you can't make a player sign, and b). it makes no sense to go back on what was said to a new signing just 2 weeks after he has signed.
Has he? Was very poor last season needs to up his game if we sign another good cb or he might find himself out of the team
Finger on the pulse of THFC
"proven wrong"Lol
Olise signed a new deal you nugget. It wasn't just a rejection. Chelsea literally couldn't do anything. Theyve been wanting him for nearly an entire month. Do you think they put all their eggs in one basket or something?Moron. "next target" as if they just found someone today.
The fact you didn't just shut up when you got proven wrong about Raya/Vicario is beyond me.
But keep yapping, I guess.
yep just trying to get even like I thought. No actual intention of having a discussion...simply annoyed that you were so wrong the last time and now trying to point score.
It's fine I'll entertain you. Firstly, technically speaking the only one that was "proven wrong" was you when you said we moved on in a week which was actually proven wrong. Now I'll move away from the semantics to entertain you're bullshit again.
Olise signing a new deal is irrelevant to the conversation you "nugget". They missed out on their primary target and moved on to their secondary target in a day. The only "moron" here is you that is actually missing the point completely and going into details about Olises contract highlights this.
Take for instance our desperate need for a centre back. We highlighted VDV as the main (or second if Tapsoba was the main target). We found out price...dithered...refused to pay...only to return near the start of the season (where he missed all of preseason) to pay what they wanted anyway.
Let's go back on your statement about me being a "moron". The only person to have exhibited moronic behaviour is the poster that believed we would:
*keep Kane
AND
sign
*another cb
* Gift Orban
*and an attacking right sided midfielder.
even after it was highlighted that that would mean over 200m net spend.
please don't ever in your life call anyone a moron on here ever ever again.
I'd rather sign Tosin than either of Lenglet or Bailly, don't get me wrong. I'd definitely take any of them over Dier; it's amazing, he's so utterly shit now im finding it hard to remember a time when he was good..
At this point it's late August and any kind of upgrade on Dier is desperately needed. Even a mostly lateral move that brings in a defender better suited to playing a high line would be far less damaging for us than having 2 of VDV, Sanchez and Romero injured or banned at the same time. Which isn't exactly out of the realm of possibility. We just need to get a fucking body in, whether we sell or not. Infuriating we seem unwilling to pursue any further acquisitions until we've offloaded all our shit.
It's a tricky one for me. I don't know if the past couple of seasons would tell us that he's a very good backup CB, but if there is a system where his best attributes can shine it would be in Ange's, which I think we've seen in a couple of games now.
If forced to choose I'd rather keep Sanchez than Dier or Tanganga for sure. If either one of them goes I still think we're deficient at CB but we could possibly get by without reinforcements if needed. If Sanchez were to go we absolutely need a replacement.
LOL
I suppose that is one way of looking at it.

Stop wineing
It would be so spursy to see sanchez find form and diers form to drop off a cliff due to zero compatibility with anges system to go and sell samchez but not dier
3 good players for two positions makes sense. I’m less bought into having two players for every position
*groans*
Everyone Bar Kane & Bentancur were poor last season for us and majority of the poor play coincided with after the new year, just a fact.... Romero was still our best defender in difficult circumstances regarding Conte Ball and Conte own Crisis, add in the dumbass ill scheduled WC and him being away for the whole month winning the WC the ecstasy of it then having to refocus immediately in a dogfight under dross archaic stubborn football style. (First time ever players have Won a WC and have to be back pronto into a gruelling second half of arguably the most physically demanding league in top class football.

If we can get any millions for him we sell IMO.
Hopefully he will prefer a move to the South of France than err...Russia.
