I don't think they've had a great summer if they haven't addressed the glaring problems they have at the back and in terms of spirit/character. They've picked up 137 points at home in the last three seasons compared to our 132 (mostly at Wembley, tbf). Away from home they've got 69 compared to our 100.
It's not hard to see them continue to stroll past most teams at the Emirates, that's never been a problem for them. There'll be plenty of 3-0/4-1/5-0 scores. But I don't see how Pepe or Ceballos turns around their away form. It's a chronic problem and they've spent close to £100m on players who aren't likely to change the script, and nothing on players who could.

Gooner friend says PEA, lacazette, pepe and ceballos is on par with City's and Liverpool's front four. Absolute shite. Two aren't prem proven but that doesnt matter to him.
I said that four isn't even as good as DESK and he said he'd happily place a bet that PEA, lacazette and pepe would outscore our four combined. I obviously accepted the bet. I look forward to my winnings next May.
Better hope we don't sell eriksen then.
He'll be replaced with someone else should he leave.

In your bet? That's ok then.
Seeing as Ceballos is a no6 or no8 I'm not sure where he's getting the idea that he's part of a front four from.
Well that was in my thinking also but i really couldn't be arsed to argue, he's a pain in the arse when he starts spouting crap like this, only surprise from him so far is that this summer is the only summer so far where he hasn't said Kane is leaving.
Our depth is better too.Our front 4 are all capable of hitting double figures in this league, only two of their have proved it, that should be Ozil in place of Ceballos really.
Having said that Eriksen will probably look to leave so not sure where that leaves us.
Astounded that it is €80m PLUS add ons on top of that, for Pepe.
Wouldn't be surprised if the top line figure is close to €100m. Regardless of how achievable the add ons are, that is nuts.
Smacks a bit of desperation to quell the fan uprising.
Who have they bought? They've only got cellabos on loan, saliba has been loaned back and then added pepe and martinelli. what left back have they got? callabos doesn't even want to be there hence the 'option to buy' clause hasn't been added to the loan deal, saliba isn't here till next season (we have tanaganga whos looked fantastic pre season). pepe, how good is he? why were no big teams in for him? they've bought players they don't need.So while we were all laughing when it was reported arsenal only had 40mil budget. They have went and boought 2 new wingers, centre back, left back and good midfield loan addition. Also when Palace didnt play ball with Zaha no messing around straight and picked up Pepe. Levy will have alot to answer for if we loose ground to Arsenal.
