He is relatively famous Bruce. German international. Weird eyes.

Looks as though he's tied his tie to tight which in turn has made him go all bug eyed

BBC Sport says he is signing now. Tend to believe them - so Yay! Although I'd really rather some defenders Mr Wenger please Sir.

Well, I watched City play on Saturday and spent half the match pointing at players I've never heard of. :?

Indeed. We have a right back, so speedy that he'll blow your mind. He literally races down the wing at every opportunity. It is a sight to absolutely behold.

And he'll be great so long as someone tells him to stop running when he gets to the end of the pitch. And someone reminds him that when the opposition have the ball he'd best stop running towards their goal!

Lol at the Ozil deal.

Cracking player, yes, but the last poition they need, small technically gifted attacking midfielders.

And FORTY million quid.

I reckon Ozil has only gone to put to bed rumours he's not as good as Andy Carroll.

Signed! Awesome player and we have a fantastic attacking midfield but slightly concerned Wenger hasn't signed a few squad players too, esp defenders. We haven't got much strength in depth...

You have that little Jap you tried to palm off on us, haven't you ? He could be your saviour.

You would expect Arsenal to add again in January. You can't make a statement like signing Ozil and then go back to buying kids.
