What Have They Done With Stan Kroenke?

I assume he's been kidnapped and forced to spend money on players, because the signings this summer can't be of his own free will, at least the paying for them part.  And all this is without unloading our wage bill problem children Ozil and Mustafi and Mkhitaryan (and Kolasinac).  This is a serious bid at leapfrogging Chelsea and maybe Tottenham into a Champions' League slot.  Our offensive firepower is awesome, but out defensive prowess is not nearly at that level.  Expect some rough seas early in the season, until Tierney, Holding, and Bellerin get fit, and Ceballos and Pepe start to click with our dynamic duo up front. 

We're so stacked with offensive talent that it would not surprise me to see Iwobi sold to Everton.  Of course, I'd rather see Ozil and/or Mkhitaryan out the door, but that's not going to happen.  Torreira and Guendouzi are going to be solid, Xhaka is still a force, and how about the academy graduates for backup?  I'm pumped.
