Fernandez told Spanish newspaper Sport that their €25 signing Samuel Umtiti would have been worth a lot more, had they not wrapped a deal up for the player in June. You think about what might happen, what might not. “You had a lot of time on your hands”, Vardy, 29, recalled about his Gunners’ transfer saga.

The England striker, who has been named in newly-appointed manager Sam Allardyce’s squad for the opening World Cup Qualifier against Slovakia on Sunday, said his side was ready to look beyond the Euro disappointment and focus on future. Every time I thought about every little thing, both head and heart were saying, “You need to stay”.
“It was just, ‘Hi, are you all right?’, and walk off to the match”. It was hard, but it was actually an easy decision to make, “he added”.
“It was basically every hotel”.
Ozil feels the expectations of fans can be too high as he says “everybody expects something special”, while the opinions of his Arsenal and national team head coaches, Wenger and Low respectively, are far more valuable. I think he was doing French TV for the Euros.
“I did a few years ago have this number, but Lukas Podolski wanted it. Up to now it has been really enjoyable”.

It remains to be seen as to whether or not Ozil gets his wish, but ultimately it looks like it could put Arsenal in a hard position moving forward, one that they would much rather not to have to deal with as Ozil and Wilshere will likely both be seen as key pieces moving forward. Remember when an Arsenal team solidified their place in the annals in football history by going unbeaten for the entire 2003/04 Premier League season? I’m happy that the Arsenal supporters all came out to support a good cause.
