we cant afford to just splash out £75m on a player without an exit though. i'll never expect Arsenal to do this kind of business not out of lack of ambition but we don't have the sheer financial power they have (which is probs down for Coutinho going for £160m within the next two windows)
the reason we brought in mislintat was to get ahead of the market and sign these van dijks and keita's before they go for ridiculous prices. im expecting us to sign diallo from mainz in Jan with the possibility of a Lozano/Draxler for around the same price we bought lacazette for

Teams are especially going to have to overspend on PL purchases on players that are already established here.
Virgil might not be an elite defender but he is still a very good PL experienced defender, and better than anything we have.
I stopped caring about prices as a fan of Arsenal. That pocketed money does not go anywhere near my pocket.
I commend Liverpool for at least showing ambition to address their weakness.
Our defense and their defense have sucked. We have let in the same number of goals this season. One team is willing to address it and thats Liverpool.
Credit to them.
We , OTOH, were trying to get rid of Mustafi as well, and reoly on Per, Holding, and Chambers.
