It's a poor start to the transfer window.

Kompany is probably the easiest person to hate in football after benoit assou-ekotto, Xabi Alonso and Mourinho.
No one cares Kompany. Go away.
anyway, Diego Costa huh? Is he good or just had a good season?
I think he's fantastic. Obviously not match fit and obviously doesn't fit into the Spain side, but a one of good season might be 15-20 goals. He got 35 in a title winning season. If he can stay injury free he'll be fantastic. Gonna cunt up the PL as well, love it.
You what mate.
We needed a right back and Arsene has (probably) signed one who is keeping Sagna out of the French national team and has premiership experience.
There are probably other signings at advanced stages but this got out early, maybe leaked by someone at Newcastle.
I agree, it's underwhelming. But you can see why Wenger's gone for it. French, experienced, knows the league, won't be on massive wages. Surprised he starts over Sagna for France though.
There's a Schalke fan in the WC thread. I tried to get him to join.
:lol :lol
I don't mind Kompany, but I am fed up about hearing how many languages he can fucking speak.
He's good when he wants to be.
He'll mostly be seen walking down the tunnel after being sent off.
It's probably the easiest deal to conclude.
Aurier is too big of a risk. We don't need a fullback who can't defend.
It's not the most exciting signing we have ever made, but then again fullbacks rarely are. There is plenty of time for us to announce more exciting signings.
Also ff did you see the article I posted earlier? It's sublime.

Glad you agree. Those that disagree, in 10 years time Kompany will be the Michael Owen of today. Giving his opinion on things when nobody cares what he thinks.

You know I'm going to get emotional regardless of the result of Friday's match. If it's a good or a close win by Colombia, tears of happiness. Close loss tears of sadness. Bad loss I'll be like English fans prior to having their souls crushed. Then having it crushed. And turning into a husk of a man.

I think Deschamps wants a starting XI that will play at Euro 2016. Sagna is older and if he is just backup for Zabaleta for two years he won't be good enough.

I'm going to try and make an effort to follow the bundesliga in addition to the EPL this year. Anyone know of a good way to pick a team?

Ty ty! I was excited about being top of the PL for a little bit last season but winning the FA Cup was a nice consolation prize being as it was their first piece of hardware in about a decade.
And regarding Sanchez, it's funny because I had Sanchez on Arsenal when I had Fifa 12 lol. I think he is definitely someone the team needs atm and it also helps that I believe Barcelona owes us money from the Cesc deal still.
GQ, pls. You don't need him. You have Costa, innit. £30m plus addons. You'll take £30m plus addons, right?
Please god please. Rumors fuel me, especially when they're bullshit.

I personally don't feel he's better than Sagna or should be keeping Sagna out of the team. If the 11m fee is true then we've paid out the ass for the right back who has around 2-3 years at best left in him at peak condition. An expensive scenario that and unless there is a development plan for Jenkinson or Bellerin they won't develop on our bench or in our reserves playing reserve games.
Also feel people are getting ahead of themselves with Sanchez. I've yet to read 1 Arsenal related journalist confirm we're trying to get him. Veysey says we're interested but that's about it. Everything else is coming from sources outside the UK which makes me not believe them.

Flow chart:
Do you want a team that can win something?
If yes, pick Bayern.
If no, pick one of the other 17 teams out of a hat.
1. Watch German football
2. Realise pep is ruining it
3. Support dortmund out of necessity
Horseress? I think so

4. Get frustrated when Dortmund keep on selling their best players
5. Support Mönchengladbach because it's a fun word to say
*awkward salute*
Tried to call my fantasy team munchencuntflaps last year but ran out of space
Wait, are you the same person who pretends to be a horse? Or is that someone else?

not me, I just love this mask
and my m8s usually call me "cavalo" (horse in portuguese), don't ask why
Ah ok. Cool.
YES CAVALO
Nope. Or at least it doesn't look likely, if we're willing to go as high as 20M. Not sure if it's a bad thing for you guys and / or a good for us though. I like iTurbe well enough, but ... ehhh.
Debuchy... could do worse than sign an experienced international I suppose. Sagna is better than him though, should be starting for France. 10m is way too expensive but I'd rather spend it than not so w/e
I don't agree/understand the idea of using World Cups as platforms for future tournaments. you don't know how the squad will look like in four years, how players will develop, injuries, etc. you don't even know if you'll be there in four years. Bring and select the team that will best help you win and win now.

Quarterfinals prediction:
Colombia over Brazil (4-0)
France over Germany (2-1)
Argentina over Belgium (1-1, penalties)
Netherlands over Costa Rica (3-1)
