Raheem Sterling (30)

I remember coming back home from the NLD (my first season at the Emirates as a season ticket holder) and watching this! One of my all time fave Wenger moments!

Nothing will EVER top that 2013 Ozil deadline day

I won’t forget that day until I’m dead.

Hated that era, but that day was absolute pure madness.

Damn, even the next few days until he was properly announced lol.

He’ll be better for us than he was for Chelsea, no doubt.

His past relationship with Arteta should be beneficial too.

Could be interesting next summer if he’s done well for us and we want to keep him with no option or obligation in place.

After he gets injured in training :slight_smile:

Deal sheet!

Know the majority of the squad as well through England and City, should settle in real quick

Martinelli scored 6 league goals in 35 for us last season. Jesus got 4 in 27.

I am super confident that Sterling exceeds both those numbers.

I’m very excited by this signing. He’s not going to bag 20+ league goals but he’s going to improve our floor considerably.

Martinelli becomes the weakest player in our bank of 6 attackers. That’s an excellent place to be in.

YESSSS

No more head down Martinelli. Arteta obviously had enough :joy:

I expect more intelligent runs and quality final balls from Sterling, which we can hardly see from Nelli.

WOOOOO SO OVER THE MOON FOR THIS!!!

Reckon Sterling ends up starting LW, can’t wait for Trossard’s celebration after that.

Beautiful.

This is a season loan with no option or obligation clauses.

Makes this a very simple and clean piece of business.

Gives us the freedom to go big next summer on a marquee attacker.

Really is a deal that suits us. Very, very pleased.

Trossard, Martinelli, Sterling, Jesus, Havertz and Saka is a quality bank of 6 forwards.

I think it is a good deal for deadline day, but the real positive with the outgoings, is that we have put ourselves in a really strong position for January or next summer to sign another marquee player. We are defo still going in the right direction.

loan is perfect though! completely different thing.worst case he can be a backup with 20 appearences and he does a decent job, best case we win the league he takes off and we buy him permanently. not mad at all.
