Why do I keep hearing this argument that Cesc can slot in for Oezil if he's not on form? It's bollocks.
Vice Verse. Squad rotation Chrissy mate. We'll find a way to make it work. It would simply be 2 players. Ozil has the ability to play AM and on either side of the Striker. Cesc can play 10, or as a CM.

The options would be ridiculously good.

So basically playing at least one player out of position per game to make up for making a completely pointless signing.

How does that work? Firstly, we haven't paid 16mil yet. We pay that if he reaches certain goals at the club. However, he is a player that could potentially be a very good servant for the club over the next 10+ years, in positions we lack depth in.

As for Cesc, we would be paying nearly 15mil more for a player that we have zero need for, It doesn't matter how good he is.
He could also potentially end up on the scrap heap. But that is another story, what Raiders and I are alluding to is that we really need someone who is the finished article who can be brought on and do a job. We will most likely be selling Vermalen with his faults but also with his experience and replacing him with a some stupid kid. Fuck that, that's crazy.

Chelsea had Willian, Hazard, Schurrle and Oscar as their attacking 4 players but they still went boss mode and signed Cesc. Fuck it they thought. Hes a class player, who'll improve us available for under £30m, no brainer. It's always something with us.

Debuchy 10m Chamers 16m.

If it's not £16m, what is it then, £10m. Because that makes it so much better.

Chelsea also signed one of the best CF's in the World. Brought back one of the best GK's in the World. Signed arguably the best LB in the World. Chelsea can do that, we can't.

We need to spend whatever we have in the right areas of the team, not on a luxury player (which he would be in regards to our squad).

A great start then chucking millions at a stupid kid.

3 of them are best on the wing and Oscar has also been used on the right numerous times so it's not as if there's a drastic change.

Buying Cesc wouldn't have made sense and we could have used the resources more wisely, okay I get what you're saying. Okay.

Would you therefore agree with me if I were to say that spending (what could eventually cost us) £16m on an unproven player, that could take multiple years to blossom, was an equally unwise move to make?

WHAT? You shot me down for saying Ozil might be able to play on the left and then you say this.

Ozil can play on the left, not as if it's a drastic change.

Just to add to Chrissy & Clancy's points, the only player who really gets shackled by Cesc joining Chelsea is Oscar, a player who isn't anywhere near as good as Ozil. They bought Cesc to make up for their lack of a true chance creator, which is something we're not lacking.

Yes, Oscar plays on the right for Chelsea already, Oezil doesn't play on the left for Arsenal. Oezil is Arsenal's best player, Oscar isn't Chelsea's best player. Moving your best player to accommodate another is probably going to cause unrest and hamper his motivation. That isn't likely to happen when one player is already used to playing out wide and quite happy to do so.
