Transfer window shut for Arsenal 2 weeks ago after the opening day win over Palace. Sanogo beasted in his one preseason appearance? Welp that's good enough for a second striker. Theo should be back by October/November? That's almost a new signing, and outside the transfer window, wow. Diaby has little niggle that keeps him grounded for 3 months? Awesome, he can slot in as a DM when he's back.
Since Wenger apparently feels some type of way about dealing with 3rd party ownership groups you'd think he would be offended at being the 3rd party financier for players moving to other clubs. I guess not. Barca buys Suarez with funds they got from Arsenal for selling Alexis, who is being quite pedantic with this whole first name thing but at least he's scored a couple of goals so whatever. Man U gets Falcao and gets Arsenal to finance the majority of the deal by selling Welbeck. If you put them together they equal a striker. As they are, they're both wingers who want to play through the middle but do a middling job at it.
2nd in CL group, eliminated by Real Madrid in the round of 16.
Furious fight with Man U/Liverpool for 4th.
Bale spends next summer telling Ramsey just how much he would like it in Madrid.
100 million transfer kitty gets talked up, 50 will be spent on a young prospect, a castoff from a higher level club, and a bargain basement player with great potential and no end product.
And we'll all be right here, praising and cursing Wenger and the board for doing it to us again.
