Yeah and he was in contact with Granit Xhaka a full year before we signed him and if IIRC he also took Lacazatte out to dinner in Paris to convince him to join us aswell.
And Southampton have been categorical in their desire to to sell VVD so not sure where weād have gotten this consent from.
Ya like these radar graphs do ya? Well Iāve got one to show you that will blow ur mind :theo:
This made me lol. Well done.
That footbaklisticly arsenal lot are a bunch wankers
Iām pretty sure dermot o Leary used to do it but stoped coz they talk so much bollocks

In all seriousness I know the oneās youāre talking about an Theoās no where near as bad as people make out.
Heās just frustrating AF to watch on the ball lol
really good point. I suppose I just want to believe we would get a badass defender like that.
Surely there is some young French defender out there we should be looking at for not such a ridiculous fee who is younger and will be as good or better than VVD.
So essentially you want to buy a center back version of Sanogo?
Typical.
Kudos to the guys who spent the time to make that video lol, itās true that the āWalcott has no football brain/is an idiotā thing is ridiculous (if anything, heās an extremely untalented footballer who has made it through his intelligence, especially of his movement) though I couldnāt help but laugh at the āVisionā part.
Every year pundits have a hipster choice they claim has done well. Van Dijk was that last season for me.
Has in no way shown enough to be valued as highly as mooted in this market - at least Siggy has been quality for a few seasonsā¦
If that was true itād contravine tapping up rules, so Iām not buying it. Wenger will talk to players when he has a teams permision, not without it.

I canāt help but feel you havnāt seen Van Dijk play over the past 3, 4 seasons if you did youād know his anything but a hipster choice.
VVDās class & heās consistently shown that since his days at Celtic.

Neither did John Stones or Kyle Walker but that didnāt stop them both from becoming the most expensive defender of all time, thatās just shows how fucked the market is right now.
Thereās too much money itās ridiculous, Iāve said it before but weāre at a stage now where as long as you get the right player it doesnāt really matter about the transfer fee as long as you can afford it.
Itās unlikely but for all we know Southampton might have gave us permission to do so.
Do we think Salzburg gave Wenger permission to speak to Keita when they were trying to move him to Leipzig?
While not allowing Liverpool? The guys just fishing for clicks
Iām happy with Rob Holding.
Maybe, maybe not ? I havenāt got a clue mate. He is probably fishing for clicks though.
Van Dijkās a pipe dream anyway so itās doesnāt really matter + Ornsteins said weāve got one possible incoming before deadline day and I doubt thatās gonna be VVD when weāre crying out for a centre mid.
Iām happy with Rob Holding.
So am I but Holdingās not a left sided centre back Van Dijk is, like I said to Luca
we need to start planning for life after Koscinely ideally sooner rather than later and what better way to do that than with VVD.
What do you think of Issa Diop? Makes a little bit more sense to me to ride it out with Mertesacker and go for a centre beck in the summer of 2018. Diop and Holding will both have another season behind their back then.
