Wenger becoming blasé about letting slip transfers before Arsenal.com

#WelcomeChambers

Hot on the heels of the Ospina transfer comes confirmation that Chambers has joined Arsenal from Southampton, for a fee of £11m, rising to £16m.

I must admit that I was surprised to learn that we were to sign another right-back, having already signed Debuchy, but the transfer makes more sense in the light of recent comments suggesting that he could be used at centre back, or defensive midfield, as well as at right back. After all, Chambers is tall and athletic, has Premier League experience, is British and, at just 19 years old, has the time and talent to become a major star of the future. The transfer does, however, raise serious questions about the future of Carl Jenkinson.

Ospina and Sanchez signings signal a change in demographic

#WelcomeOspina

I'm delighted with the news that Arsenal.com have officially confirmed the signing of Ospina from Nice. While Fabianski had worked hard to finally overcome a reputation of being prone to making mistakes, I believe that replacing him with Ospina represents an improvement in the squad. It remains to be seen how Ospina will respond to playing second fiddle (initially at least) to Szczesny, but he is three years younger than Fabianski and performed admirably for Colombia in the World Cup.
