Have all these Dest lovers ever seen him play for a longer period? He's as average as they come.

If he was all that great there wouldn't be any rumours for him to leave Barcelona in the first place.

If AMN is staying we can’t have four RBs on the books ffs.

Absolute shambles. Get him gone no matter what.

He's 20 years old. He was bought by Barça at 19 considered one of the biggest futures for a RB in the game, and has spent one season under a crap manager in a club in disarray and people have totally changed their opinions on him.

He's got quality on the ball and is athletic. Defensive side of his game needs refining but those two facts make him better than any option we have.

Perhaps there are better options out there but I am so desperate for us to get a RB with some ability on the ball that can actually run and move and take advantage of the spaces that the triangulations between Ödegaard-Saka/Pepe and a RB make on the right side, that I am just desperate to make sure we at least get a somewhat interesting RB in before the window shuts.
You don't need to tell me about Dest. I've seen every single game of his at Ajax. He's mostly very fast, decent technique but very erratic, defensively poor. The games he's played at Barca against better sides he was clearly the weakest link in their defense and out of his league.

He wasn't even the best RB at Ajax when he was bought by Barca. I was very surprised Barca was in for him. Hell, the new RB breaking through at Ajax (Timber) is also better than Dest.
Dest is still miles better than every RB at Arsenal
That shouldn't be the benchmark. The benchmark should be is the player CL level.

Edu ‘loan with option’ Gaspar

As Tim Lewis was forcing Raul into the police van, his parting words to Edu were "Remember, Edu, Loan with option to buy".

Shame he didn't mention it was when buying and not when selling players.

Fair play...I'd certainly take him over our current options though. Hopefully we sign someone better before tomorrow ends but it isn't looking that likely.

We agree that we need to sign someone better than our current options for sure. Also not that hopeful it will happen.

Arsenal Quotes

When we won the title on May 3-rd by beating Everton 4-0 as Tony Adams scored that iconic goal, we showed everyone and especially Manchester United that we could beat them. Thirteen days later, when we beat Newcastle 2-0 in the FA Cup final in the legendary Wembley Stadium, it was wonderful... I felt immensely proud for the team, for the club: this was the fantastic response I was able to give to those who had put their confidence in me, as well as those who had put me through all those difficult weeks when I first arrived.
