Who was excited? Far as I recall reactions ranged from "not the kind of player we should be signing" to "I guess he can fill a hole until we find someone good"
Reactions from different posters:
- "I like it overall" in reaction to the window as a whole.
- Another reaction seemed more than alright with the move.
- "I'm ok/fine with Lichtsteiner"
- He'd "provide stability"
So correct, no one was "excited", but as I said at the time the reaction to the deal was essentially rubber stamping it while at the same time some of the same people were all too happy to see the back of Ramsey.
Boateng played striker for Las palmas a couple of years ago too
I think he scored against a season or two back too.
I was furious about this yesterday. I'm too tired to be mad now. It's a loan, so not that big a deal, but it's just embarrassing. I mean f***, I'll just come and say that considering any striker deal wasn't going to be that serious anyway, I would have taken a punt on Bojan. He actually proved himself at the club and has a bit of a knack for some nice goals too.
Morata to Atletico on loan with option to buy.
This just doesn't feel right.
KPB to Barca is hilarious.
Well I'm not f***ing laughing Nich o las.
Lol, remember the time when Barca made smart transfers?
Time? You mean times. Like when we signed Ter Stegen, Umtiti, Arthur, Dembele, Rakitic, Suarez, Semedo, Lenglet and Malcolm. Of course none of them are good enough to start for today's Arsenal, but we can dream.
Yeah, I would love our team to be backed by tax payers too. Barca should be fortunate they can hide all their terrible transfer buys under the rug.
I see your ignorance doesn't rest at just our transfer history.
Paulinho to Barça, my friend
As odd as that was, it worked out really well in the end. He scored 9 goals in the league, more than Benzema for example and in fewer minutes no less. and they made a profit on him.
Wow...
Emiliano Sala signed with Cardiff from Nantes for 20M this week.
Yesterday he took his stuff and took a private plane to Cardiff.
His plane never arrived. On going researches but it looks like we'll never see him again
Crazy...
Speaking of Schalke...whatever happened to Konoplyanka? I always thought he looked very solid.
I think he's had some run-ins with his manager. Must be something about him off the pitch. He didn't start regularly for Sevilla, but had some nice moments and put up some good numbers. At this stage, and it's really late in the game now, but he should be looking for a club where he'll start consistently.
Been told by a local source that De Jong has chosen Barcelona.
Hard to believe considering all the stories and how quickly the narrative around the player changes, but sounds like it could be the case.
- Arsenal still linked with Denis Suarez.
I read today that any deal is off.
What about de ligt, the guy Barca actually need?
Well to say we "need" is saying a lot actually, but don't worry, we'll sign him too.
