Europa is a distraction

Such as who this summer?

If it allows Reiss Nelson to get first team experience it will be hugely beneficial in the long term.

The schedule ain't great, but even when we were in the CL they would make us play away on Wednesday then in the PL at 12:30 on the Saturday...

Are you stupid?

You just came to call me names then, your comments aren't really to do with anything. Can you find anything that says Lemar didn't turn down arsenal because he wants to play in the Champions League, that was sort of the point

Why is Europa beneath Arsenal after 15 failed attempts to win the Champions League? Why is it better to be pumped by Bayern? Only in about two of your cl campaigns did you have a real chance of actually going the distance.

You should go all out to win the League Cup and Europa imo. People won't be laughing if do both these very winnable trophies in one season.

And it's set up nicely. If you don't hesitate group stages right, you can play loads of kids before the knockouts.

Seems like you're being intentionally obtuse.

First, the burden of proof is on you, who claimed as a "fact" that Lemar refused to join due to the lack of CL footy.

Second, you then decide without justification that the frame of reference for recognised players joining non-CL clubs should be "this summer", for no good reason.

Finally, even given this absurd condition, you fail to realise that, apart from countless others around Euruope, you have the example of Lacazette at your very own club.

Pretty absurd to use this transfer window as an example for this transfer window

and who are the countless others around europe?

the players milan bought? lacazette? sigurdsson?

Absurd in that it's just a feeble and futile attempt at narrowing the goalposts to suit your argument. As if the gist of the argument was players' readness to join non-CL clubs "in this transfer window". It happens every window.

i think you need a time out
