Think our CB luck was more than countered by the annihilation in midfield tbf mate!
But fair point, we could definitely use another CB given that Sagna was also an option there while Debuchy aint.
Koscielny and Mertesacker arent going to be broken up though so I cant see us signing a superstar CB even if Vermaelen leaves. Not that there are many top CBs for sale in a market where David Luiz is £50m! Probably sign some young CB from Ligue 1 as a longer term project.
If I had to bet then I'd be looking at either a big DM like Javi Martinez, or another winger like Di Maria if the twitter itks are to believed that another worldie is on the cards.
meh, Szczesny never gets any respect even though he is perfectly solid and improves every year.
He's cocky and since he's an Arsenal player too, people will just keep saying he's not good enough even though he keeps doing the biz.
Bergkamp wasnt that similar to Ozil tbh.
Bergkamp was definitely more of a 2nd striker than a 10 and was capable of playing as a target man as well whereas Ozil is more of an all round playmaker. Probably if DB was on the market now as a 25 year old, he'd be going for £75m odd.
Sanchez is also nothing like Pires really. Sanchez is more like Ljungberg.
