Multiple reports that it's almost guaranteed Wenger will buy a starting left winger in January to play across Alexis.

Corinthians president says a deal is in place for Liverpool to sign Alexandre Pato. As long as it's solely for depth purposes, I'm ok with it. He's had injury issues in the past and never quite lived up to his hype.

Pato was a project that completely failed due to nonstop injuries.  Not sure how well he'll do in physical EPL.

He's played at least 40 matches each of the last 3 seasons, so I think he'd be fine as a rotational guy.

Wenger is after Lucas Moura and Mauro Icardi.  Also looking to sign Victor Wanyama for the right price.

With Santi Cazorla and Coqiulin out for 3-4 months and Alexis Sanchez with busted hammy, looks like Wenger will have to buy 2-3 top class players if he wants to challenge for the title.

that sounds familiar...

[Raskle]

Always does...

 

Btw, I'm ignoring the hype and rumors this window. Too many of them where I get excited Spurs are going after someone to actually fix their problems, just to be disappointed when we don't sign anyone cause Levy likes to wheel and deal a little too much. Transfer windows are such a let down, just not worth following as a Spurs fan, lol.

this is around the time City will sell underperforming players they massively overpaid for in order to clear space to overpay the next crop of players. hope it pays off in the UCL for once, thankfully they cannot draw Barcelona again.

With the most recent Sturridge injury, Klopp will be forced to sign a striker in January.

Arsenal did impossible and won away today by 3 goals... Advancing to top 16 of Champion League. 

Wenger is now under a lot of pressure to get new blood in...

Apparently Real Madrid will bid for Alexis Sanchez next summer...  The fee is expected to be in 120m pounds range 0_o.  Real Madrid is willing to sale Isco to Arsenal to sweeten the deal...

[Ja Rhule]

BEIN just said they have inside sources that confirm Isco is leaving Real Madrid for Arsenal unless Wenger changes his mind.  Both Isco and Madrid agreed to part ways.

Fingers crossed! 

      Walcott

Alexis-Ozil-Isco?

Yes please.  That line would consist of all La Lega rejects.

He wouldn't be able to play in CL games, so how would this make sense for either party? I seriously doubt this, as Benitez is likely out within a month.

Apparently Isco got punished by the club because he laughed when Madrid was losing....  I think Madrid burned their bridge with Isco...  Isco clearly wants out and I'm not sure if next coach will be able to fix anything.

Isco wanted out a year ago too. He got more minutes and said he was happy at RM. It's a matter of wanting to be on the pitch.
