Yeah but some of the bugs are ridiculous after three betas. Constant lock ups, messages reverting to SMS for no reason, hard locks and then instant battery drain after a reset. I could go on.

I had iOS6 & 7 Beta and never experienced anything like this.

The risk you take with pre-release software. Same thing happened on Windows Phone. 8.0 GDR3 beta was basically RTM, 8.1 beta was far from it.

Ideally, we get Remy and ship both of them out on loan.

Remy is definitely a better option than the two just based on experience but part of me wants to see Campbell being given a try, at least for less important games where results won't affect us as much. I suppose it's better to send him out on loan for his own development though.

It is widely reported that five ultras representatives were allowed to enter Vinovo for private talks with the club directors, including director general Marotta and Allegri himself.

The meeting lasted only a few minutes.

Yeah it was unofficially announced last night before Conte's resignation! I still don't think he's worth 25-30 million :/ he's no fucking Sanchez, not even close.

Campbell is unproven as a goalscorer. If Wenger wants to keep him around as a squad player, playing on the wing, getting games up front in the cup, that's fine by me. But Sanogo is made of glass and shit. the Giroud-era was a fun little diversion. but now I want a competent striker up front. why even bother spending 50m this summer if we're just going to end up watching Giroud play another 50 games up front for us. we need Remy imo

Campbell is not ready to play as a lone striker. relying on him up front for the occasional game when Giroud is hurt or tired is going to be Bendtner all over again.

Remy is worse than Giroud and I'm sure Sanchez or Walcott are going to be playing through the middle a bit. Both can't play on the right wing.

has to be the most promising 19 year old in world football, right

?

Liverpool have the most promising 19 year old prospect in Sterling and the most promising 25 year old prospect in Lallana.

Crazy.

People who rate Remy ahead of Giroud are in for a rude awakening.

€22m + €2.5m in add-ons. 5 year deal. This number is about 5m less than the Juve guys were expecting they'd pay... man, that's rough. What a squad Roma have built.
Click to expand...

Apparently it's that + 10M€ to the third-party owners. Verona only had 70% ownership of Iturbe.

So it's really more like 30-35M€. Goodbye, Benatia!

Also, Evra and Morata are still on.

Remy has pace and Remy can finish. Our midfield will create chances that he will score. He'll be fine until we can get an actual good striker.

Quoting myself so this doesn't get missed. Arsenal have 14, Chelsea have 10, United 18, Everton 24 and Spurs 20 for the record.

The Daily Mail did a pretty interesting study a few weeks back which showed the number of English players clubs have brought through their academy that played for their first team. Richards and Sturridge weren't included in our list since we paid small compensation fees for them back in the day, but City had 14 total (none recently of course). By the same metric, Liverpool had 13.

Here is the piece for those interested: http://tinyurl.com/q3d86zw

Unrelated, but it's amazing that Porto gave away so much money. Iturbe's buy-out clause was €40m I believe. I'm certain they could have loaned him out for another year and got at least €30m themselves. Strange they let a falling out with the player dictate leaving so much money on the table.

Ipswich 0-0 West Ham Utd.

Gave the players a run out I guess, Vaz Te seemed to have a lot of chances, Zarate only had half an hour on the pitch.

They're off to New Zealand next.

If we are genuinely in for Stroot that would imply we are not going to go heavy on a CM this window surely?
