David Ornstein said about a month ago that Higuain was our top priority and he's about as reliable as these twitter lads get but it could still be a load of old waffle.

Thats from 2013

So to clarify; David Ornstein has not said that Higuain is our top priority this summer. He said it 3 years ago. This ****ing thread.

What's the 8-10 years based on exactly? I'm assuming it's based on how many typically get freed up each year, i.e., a tiny amount. It would take a small economic downturn for that 8-10 years to become 1 year.

For an example - they waited 11 years, others see to be in the 8 year ballpark. Seems to be the general numbers anyway, from looking around. 80,000 in the queue - that's huge.

Yes, it is. However some of those people will have moved away, had families, died, got married etc. How many of them would pay up tomorrow is the important thing. A downturn in the economy and results and there'll be a massive fall in that figure. Well, they'll probably turn down the ticket but remain on the list.

Surely we can agree that there's enough people in the waiting list that selling season tickets is nowhere near being a concern for the club, at least to not have to resort to pretending to sign players.

It does sound ridiculous, but our stadium is rarely full despite how difficult it is to get a ticket because apparently they're in high demand, but evidently not.

Grand, they're just incredibly awkward at signing players.

Now this is something I could get on board with.

The season tickets are still sold though. People not turning up is another thing.

Don't know much about him but he averages over a goal a game so i'm on board!

Joel looking very happy for a guy who's been told to leave

Not sure about him either - but it seems like he scored 18 goals in 38 appearances for AC last year. And he is 30 in September.
I think i'd rather see us go for Lacazette or someone.
Although beggars cant be choosers, so he's for sure better than nothing

I think Bacca would be a good option, he's nearly 30 but still has a few years in him, got a very good goal scoring record. He cost AC Milan 30 odd million last year

Yea and at £26M we could still possibly invest in a winger too

That was my thinking too. Himself and Draxler could be good business.

Need a CB really bad as well lads

Good. A tournament in a different climate might bring him on especially if he can play well. I rate Gnabry myself but he's still a bit raw.

I see Wilshere has returned early from his holidays to join in Arsenal training, despite being allowed extra time off after being with England in the Euros. One thing we can't fault in that kid is his attitude towards the club!

He's a real footballer, everyone else whinging because they only have a month off...

TBF he's hardly suffering from football burnout over the last year....

Fair play to him coming back but the lad only played 257 minutes for club and country last season. Not his fault but he has to have a decent preseason this year. Credit to him still though.

I'm sure he'll take extra holidays in the middle of the season to make up for it.
