Beast of a signing.
Aye. I was hoping Liverpool would get him as part of the Suarez deal. Oh well.
Wasn't the point that they have a load of decent kids, essentially... so bringing in people like Cole/Senderos/Richardson, who admittedly aren't great players, could add useful experience to the squad?

When I first saw Eriksen he was playing wide right for Denmark (U21s?) and I was very impressed. He's more than capable of filling the role.
Sanchez = diving ****. English press will have a field day with him
Only plus point is he will inject a bit of pace up front that we really lacked once Walcott got injured. Will be interesting to see how Wenger chooses to use him i.e:
-Main striker, replacement for Giroud
-Formation change and plays alongside Giroud (unlikely)
-Maybe on the left/right of the 3 behind Giroud
could Shaw potentially be converted into a winger...?
Sanchez could well be a fantastic bit of business - interested to see how good he will be in a team where he is expected to be the main man instead of second fiddle to Messi.
Hoping that the Sami Khedira thing also pans out - would be a very sucessful transfer window in my eyes then.
Hopefully Sanchez turns out as well as Ozil did.
I'm not too keen on Khedira if he's (reportedly) demanding to be the highest earner at the Emirates. Falling back on Lars Bender would surely be better business?
