Agree with you on that though I had similiar feeling in summer that we ignored key positions, I'm happy with some of players that we have bought over all. Our loans have been poor, I'd rather of kept suso tbh and they money we bought Alberto with been used elsewhere. I think we make transfers too complex with all the people involved. Suarez will look at this window and be disappointed probably all ready planning his exit

So all we ended up with is Kim ****ing Kallstrom 
, i just hope he does a good job when he is asked to play and thankfully its only a loan deal rather than a permanent one.
Looks like we will have to rely on the squad we have now to get us through to the end of the season. Will be an interesting end to the season for us though, to see if we still are in the fight come end of this month or we have completely imploded like we normally do.

Essentially for free too ! What an absolute bargain
This is a chicken and egg debate. I will agree to differ and let his career decide the winner

I don't understand how you can complain about signing Kallstrom when you've already admitted to knowing nothing about him... Seems very stupid.

Can't believe no one in Europe took a punt on Ever Banega and he has went to Argentina on a freebie.

So another deal missed out on, questions need to be asked though.
Ayre spent 3 days in the Ukraine. If the owner was unwilling to sell he would have know of his stance and it would have left us a little time at least to look at other options. 3 days to get a deal done when the owner was refusing from the start? Makes no sense.
Secondly, why leave it till 2 days before deadline day to go after Kono? OK we were after Salah but were apparently in talks for 2 months. I mean come on, that is ridiculous in itself We should have had deals sorted early in January, Ayre or FSG have been massively messing around.
This way of handling business can not go on, it stared last summer and we missed out on Willian, Mkhitaryan etc and before that Dempsey and Sigurrdson. We may have dodged a bullet with a few but the point still stands. Other clubs get business done quickly, we drag our heels and get gazumped or miss out all together.
I am very much for FSG and what they are doing but questions need asking now. It's not good enough.

Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet are reporting that Kim Källström could face 2-3 months out after having been injured in training for Arsenal.
Yup. Two different people are telling me that
Presumably from the same source though.

Probably took advise from Moyes about training methods

Wenger is cursed. Just when he is doing well and actually has a chance of winning something, half his team decide to get injured.

This is Arsenal, predicted come back date, 6 games, actual date first available, 6months, reinjured 6 games after that, then he'll leave Arsenal in 6 years(okay doesn't quite work with a loan but, you get the gist)
Simple thing is, for x amount of cash a week, paying for someone who is pretty much going to be missing for 1/3 of the entire loan spell... it's just not worth it. It's also been suggested they didn't know the full extent because they didn't do a full scan to find out about it... meh.
We'd have less defensive injuries and problems if Wenger learned how to protect players and actually chose to rotate players around busy periods of games. Walcott, just back from injury, played in a series of games very close together with no rest... it was asking for trouble and then he ends up injured for 6 months.
