10 reasons Arsenal transfer window WAS a success

Top ten positives from the transfer window By AondoaverK Hello Arsenal fans, it’s time to exhale! The market is over and we are the talk of town. You’d even think we just won a major trophy in injury time, in the most agonizing fashion. The four signings the Gunners made and the players released might not be what everyone wants but there is unanimity that we bought smart. We can’t win by just buying but we can give ourselves a chance. That, I think, we did. As we digest the market and how it went, I have compiled a list of top ten positives that Arsenal fans can take from the summer transfer window just ended. Feel free to add or substitute or create your own list entirely! Enjoy my countdown: 10. We didn’t buy Salomon Kalou 9. We didn’t sell Prince Poldi 8. Chamakh left (but Bendtner is still here?) 7. At least two of our junior boys will get a chance in the senior squad 6. Olivier Giroud stepped up his game (to ward off another central striker) 5. Flamini’s return is like a bit of the old Arsenal back 4. We (literally) sold Ramsey (not true in fact) and got a new Ramsey (re-loaded) 3. There is space for a January addition (Demba Ba didn’t come and there could be the balance of the 70 million pounds) 2. We were trained to expect very little 1. We got Mesut Ozil Can’t wait for hostilities to restart
