fuck it, I'll post it then go for a quick vomit
Lets hope he is marred by injury like most Arse star players.
fingers crossed for a long settling in period followed by injury like that Croatian / Brazilian guy they had
Poor form to wish injury on another player fella. That's jinxy talk right there...
Great player but not sure how they are going to fit him in?
Who does he replace?

Sounds like Arsenal, they're desperately short of defensive midfielders, so they sell one of the two they have.
Talksport were having an Arsenal wankathon earlier, Adrian Durham reckons they're contenders now they have Sanchez and if they get Khedira they'll be unstoppable.
An improvement no doubt but not an improvement that sees them going from 4th to 1st.
They will be contenders.
Some of the revisionism in this thread is funny, too.
Arsenal will come flying out of the gates in Aug/Sept/Oct/Nov as per usual. Top of the league, swag football, silky goals, sun shining, everyone banging on about this being 'their year'.
Then they'll fall apart in January and February, as they always fucking do. Because there is not one leader in that team, not one winner, and no sense of do or die about them.
What won United titles for years on end wasn't just Van Nistelrooy banging them in for fun, or Ronaldo scoring 90th minute winners, it was the likes of Neville, Bruce, Keane, Ince, etc ensuring that their standards never dipped, and that 3 points away to Bolton in February means as much as 3 points at home to Charlton in the middle of August. Arsenal have none of those types of characters. They used to have them, in fact Wenger inherited them - Adams, Dixon, Seamen - winners, and ballsy fucking footballers.
What's Jack Wilshere, or Mesut Ozil, Vermaelen, or fucking Giroud gonna do for you when the chips are down? Fuck all.

Mesut Ozil trying to inspire his teammates sounds hilarious.
Only player on that team I can see being *that guy* are probably Mertesacker, assuming Arteta leaves. And I don't think Mertesacker commands enough respect in that dressing room to have enough of an impact.

They actually do seem to be identifying targets that address their weaknesses for once, though. Sanchez, Remy, Debuchy and a DM either Schneiderlin or Khedira would improve them a great deal. I think they'll finish top 3, actually.
If we beat them to Remy right when they were about to sign him, that would be fantastic.
Oh, and I hate Arsenal.
People need to remember who we're dealing with here. It's Arsenal. They simply don't exist as a viable title challenging team anymore. Nothing will or can change until Wenger leaves.
They could sign Messi and it still wouldn't worry me.

That is probably taking it too far...
Sign a top striker and DM and they could challenge.
