Fantastic signing if they indeed pull it off. Not so sure about signing of the summer, though. That has to be Fabregas. Sanchez isn't a player that adds that much different than some of the players they already have. Fabregas adds a completely new dimension to our midfield and when you consider what we paid for him he's got to be the best buy. Curious to see how they use Sanchez, though. See a lot of chatter saying Wenger may use him as a striker in the mould of Suarez. Someone who can roam all over the attacking third and not just score goals like a classic striker but also beat his man and set things up. He's perfect for that but I'm not so sure Wenger will drop Giroud. Sanchez, Özil, and Walcott behind Giroud maybe? Either way he's the first Arse signing that I'm actually worried about.

We'd probably finish about 15 points ahead of the 2nd place club with Yaya in our side, but yeah. No chance.

I'd like to think that our board and manager are smart enough not to even let the thought of selling him to another English side enter their minds. Especially not fucking Spuds. They should be on a permanent blacklist after the Modric saga. Think it's blatantly obvious that he wants out. WAGNH had a brilliant article this morning that was spot on and summed up my feelings about Romelu. He's just like De Bruyne in that he doesn't have what it takes in him to accept that he needs to fight for the right to be the main man at a top European club. This shit isn't just handed to you. I kept wavering about whether I want him back or not, but after yet another round of idiotic comments I just want him gone and replaced. Get another young, hungry striker who understands that even though he may not start every single match, he'll still have plenty of opportunities.

How fucking dumb does that sound? LolBuy one of, if not the best young LB as competition for the other you just spent £30m on. Around £50m tied up in LB's.

Wonder how Joe Lion-Hart feels about that one. Clearly being undermined there.

Unfortunately, Sanchez seems really close to joining Arsenal already.

Do jizz stains void the warranties on Apple products?

100% guarantee that he'll be sold within 2-3 years when the next flashy name pops up. Kroos' game isn't spectacular enough, so when the fans and media get bored of him he'll end up back in Germany or here in the PL.

Really hoping that some of these big name players linked with PL moves either stay put or go to other leagues. Really don't want to see the likes of Vidal, Sanchez, and Di Maria playing for our closest rivals. Imagine if United manage to sign Vidal, Di Maria, and a top CB. They really could go from 7th to champions in one season.

Astounded that this still hasn't happened. If anything I thought this would be the first deal that we would've concluded weeks ago.

I'm still holding out hope that it's possible. And if not Pogba then some other midfielder. Just look at the powerful midfield we used in the biggest games last season in Matic/Luiz. We no longer have the combinations to field a partnership like that. I think José will want a player like Pogba. Has all the traits that Mourinho loves.

I'm just predicting that Yaya (if he's even there next season) won't be quite as good as he was last season.Don't think they'll take a sizable step back, just maybe a few points. Don't think they'll finish lower than 2nd.

Think Arsenal will be similar to last season. They'll look like genuine title contenders and one of the best sides in the league for the first half of the season but will then fade like they always do. I expect United and City to be the big threats. Think City take a slight step back from last season with us improving significantly which will see us winning the title. United playing once a week and being able to focus solely on the PL will see them do a Liverpool. Think they'll finish above Arsenal.

We'll see the real Gerrard next season. Last season's was a facade. Played once a week and never had to be rotated. Let's see how he gets on with midweek fixtures and 3-4 competitions to compete in.

I'd like to see them play a side like Real Madrid or Bayern, or any of the elite sides. The sheer gulf in class between the lineups when the team sheets are released will be hilarious.Ronaldo, Bale, Di Maria, Benzema vs Lallana, Henderson, Gerrard, Sterling They'd be shitting themselves.

"Defending is easy. Anyone can coach that." Concedes ridiculous amount of goals last season. Let's see how he gets on against the elite sides in Europe if they draw any in their group. Those sides aren't going to bend over and beg for more like Norwich.

That, and Liverpool can't attract top drawer players. They need to target players that don't have offers from anyone better.

Just smacks as Spurs & Bale. So many of their supporters and even a bunch of media and journalists were saying things like "they got rid of a world class player in Bale but they may be an even better side because they're fortifying all of the holes that Bale masked." That's how Liverpool fans will spin it.

So Liverpool have signed Lallana, Lambert, and Can so far with Markovic now seemingly done and Lovren likely. Just like Spuds, they've replaced one world class player with a bunch of average ones. Have to say that I'm not sweating Liverpool at all. Much more concerned about Arsenal, City, and United than them. Don't think they get near the title next season.

Apparently done to Liverpool. The way they're getting so excited about this signing you'd think they'd signed Di Maria or some world class player. Most of them have never seen him play.

Yep.Hope we genuinely are linked with him, though. Now that France are out it would be wise to get any potential deal done quickly before clubs start courting Vidal. Was just reading on twitter about that Mutu issue we still have with Juve and how it may be able to help in negotiations with them. Plus they want Alexis Sanchez so us dealing with them can be mutually beneficial. They can use the cash raised from Pogba's sale to buy Sanchez which would make Vidal want to stay and play alongside his compatriot. How awesome would it be to acquire Pogba, stop Arsenal getting Sanchez, and stop United from getting Vidal all in one fell swoop?

It seems like we get linked with him once per week. Everything dies down and then a few days later we get linked with him again. Nobody has any clue.

Still surreal that he's a Chelsea player.

Think he and Hazard will be the two best wide players in the league next season. Really sucks that he's going to Arsenal.
