Those saying we've weakened the squad are wrong full stop.

Maybe we've not improved things when we perhaps should, but let's not cry over old and completely underused milk.

So Mason, Townsend and Falque all out on loan.... leaving Gylfi (the non-winger) and Bentley (the non-player) as wing-cover.

Outstanding.

We pay CL-level ticket prices to watch a squad that Daniel Levy (not providing finances for the targets his managers want) and our scouting management team (not going out and finding decent alternatives to their 2-players-long shortlists) seems to get weaker with every passing transfer window. Not good enough.

Robbie Keane to score 30 and set us on our way to the CL!

Some sort of striker would have been lovely... It's going to be Kane 4th choice, who realistically won't play because Dempsey on his own will be the fallback when Defoe/Adebayor aren't available. Holtby injects a bit of hope into the whole thing, think he and Adebayor could be a good combo, massively relying on latter to come back to form. Then happy enough with Dempsey and Defoe as impact subs/being rotated in. But can't help feeling that it didn't have to be like this...
Was Kane back to us ever confirmed?

This is worst than last Jan, squad has been weakened especially with Townsend off:

Parker injured = we are fucked!
Bale Injured = we are fucked!
Adebayor Injured = we are fucked!
Lennon Injured = we are fucked!
Defoe Injured = we are fucked until Adebayor gets back!

We are fucked!

Ah, the Levy apologists are out in force again!

The fact is we've got rid of Modric, Kranjcar, VdV, Saha and Pavlyuchenko, and replaced them with Dembele, Holtby, Sigurdsson and Dempsey.

While Pav was useless and Dembele and Holtby look good, the fact is we were not strong enough this time last year, and we are weaker now than we were then.

It's not acceptable that we keep leaving it this late and missing out on top players. We've been within Wenger's scrawny old cock of Damião and Moutinho, yet we have neither.

Levy's getting slated on twitter.

Didn't we do the same last Jan? Sell/loan out all our squad players leaving us short in key areas.

Loaning out Townsend is ridiculous ...

Weaker at the end of the window than we were at the star.

Well done Levy for ruining our squad.

I don't understand loaning Townsend at all....we have no wing cover!!

Ok that's the one that did it for me. Out of here until the kids go to bed.

Hey .. At least we have Lewis Holtby .. Who i think will be a revelation ..

Lets just hope for now defoe and dempsey can soldier on for us until adebayor comes back (hopefully with a new air of confidence)

Whoevers on the verge of suicide (alot of you it looks like) Chin up ffs and actually look at other teams around us (we still have a better squad imo)

Keep the faith .. coys

For what it's worth, I think Adebayor and Holtby can be bloody good for us for the remainder of the season.

So do I. Though it's one thing Levy and AVB sitting down and coming to the conclusion that we aren't going to go for a striker (which admittedly would still be disappointing), but it feels more frustrating that we've seemingly left it all to the last day again and surprise surprise, it hasn't worked out.
