Transfer Moves

 I know nothing about this Tomiyasu guy we paid 16M pounds for today, except that he plays right back and can play center back, and he's 22 years old.  Getting Odegaard was very good.  Ramsdale is a good keeper, and we needed backup for Leno.  Lokonga has already shown himself to be one of our better players, and looks to be a bargain.  We've offloaded (read: paid to go away) Willian, sold Runarsson, and loaned out several other players.  We sold Willock for decent money.  We're keeping Maitland-Niles, which I like.  Bellerin is going to Spain.  I wish we'd called Saliba back from his loan spell, but instead we extended it, which I really don't like.  No one wants Kolasinac and Palace wouldn't pony up money for Nketiah.  Whatever else we fans can say about the Kroenkes, we can't say they didn't spend some money.  Now all Arteta has to do is manage a lot better than he has and win some football games.

The international break comes at a good time.  We can integrate the new boys into the squad and ideally the coaching staff can turn our defenders into players who can avoid giving up easy goals, our midfielders into players who can keep and move the ball, and our attackers into players who can actually score goals.  They're doing none of that now.
