January Transfer Window Shenanigans

We are in January! Taken our time with this one, but to be honest, we wanna get it write for the people reading our blogs. (Please check out my friends blog: http://portsmouthunderdogstory.blogspot.co.uk/ - it's my friends attempt to not only save Portsmouth from ruin, but to also rebuild).

Luckily, I'm still at Arsenal, and I've been asked to re-evaluate my expectations. Slightly arrogantly I have changed from a Europa League qualification through my position in the league, to a Title Challenge. It means that I get £36.5m transfer budget, and a £1.75m wage budget. YAY MONEYS! I aim to strengthen my strike options as Ademilson seems to be a little bit of a flop, but I'm not panicking. Didn't really expect him to perform brilliantly from day 1. Andre Schurrle (see below) is very unhappy where he is and I could snatch him, which would bolster my LAM position greatly, and even free up Podolski for the striking positions.

I have already signed young defender Doria from Botafogo:

And here is Andre Schurrle, a potential prospect:

UPDATE!!!
Absolutely delighted by this next signing...
For a total fee of £35m (£5m up front and £30 over 2 years), I have signed Giuseppe Rossi from Villarreal!
