2024 January transfer window - hopes, needs, expectations and rumours.

[LeeB]

The answer to all of our dreams.

[ChicagoLion]

One thing I would like to know is what each clubs actual spending power is based on FFP this window.
I guess this is something clubs keep fairly secret.

BBC's rundown of possibly-moving players features Emil Smith-Rowe, 'with Douglas Luiz moving the other way'.

a) Doug is better than ESR, and more important to his team, why is he casually mentioned like this

b) why would we ever, ever do this

c) whoever wrote this needs to get replaced by AI immediately

[Sexual Ealing]

The answer to all of our dreams.

When Shane McGowan died I went on a bit of a Pogues binge, which culminated in me blubbing uncontrollably at Nick Cave doing Rainy Night in Soho at his funeral. That song contains the incomparable lyric, "you're the measure of my dreams."

Jermaine, I took shelter from the shower and I stepped into your arms.

The BBC seem to have a few 'reporters' that spend some of their day posting shite like this and the rest of it on Arsenal forums.

On a rainy night in Aston, Jermaine shots whistled past the Bartons Arms.

Jermaine Beckford.

Is he ‘at it’ again?

I think it's funny that most pundits, and even Arsenal fans, will say their problems are at the front and at the back. They need a striker, or they need to tighten up their defence. So obviously the most persistent rumour is them signing another midfielder.

[Brazilian Villain]

WINDOW OPEN

Still not signed anyone yet, what the FUCK is Monchi doing?

We are now 1.24% through the window with no sign of any activity. It's a disgrace.

Seems impatient, but should auld acquaintance be forgot, and the days of auld Lange signs?

They do need a midfielder as well, they played Havertz there yesterday. Rice and Odegard and Luiz if they could get him would be formidable. But I don’t see him leaving this window.
Another criticism is Arteta has no plan B, when getting the ball out to the wingers isn’t working.
They definitely need a striker desperately.

[ROBBO]

It's irritating in the extreme that they think Luiz would willingly leave Villa to go to a team below them on the ladder.

They can think what they want.

No way, he's going to them to play under that thunderbird fucktwat

[OCD]

I'd say that they don't think much of the average reader to think they we would sell Luiz. But having seen how simple some of the Arsenal fans are, that must be who they're aiming stories like that at.

Or they're aiming it at Villa fans and banking on their outraged clicks. We're something approaching clickbait worthy now, you know. Sign of our success.

Playing a midfielder in midfield? That'll never catch on.
