Arsenal fans unhappy with possible new signing

What could potentially be Arsenal’s new boss Mikel Arteta’s first signing is all but confirmed and Arsenal fans are, fair to say, not very happy about it. Reports in France and England state that the Gunners have completed the signing of PSG full-back Layvin Kurzawa, who is expected to arrive as a free transfer in the summer if the deal doesn’t go through in this transfer window. PSG have asked for a fee of €7m if Arsenal wish to buy the player before the time in this transfer window runs out. Kurzawa too has expressed an interest in signing for Arsenal as he reportedly stated that he’d prefer playing for Arsenal over Inter Milan.

Kurzawa never really settled as a left-back at Paris Saint Germain and was gradually became an uncertainty in PSG’s starting line-up. While the French full-back does have some exceptional attacking stats to boast of, his defensive fragilities are bothering the Arsenal fans more apparently. Mikel Arteta has certainly brought about a change in the mood among the Arsenal fans and though they are sceptical of the signing, his plans could well turn Kurzawa into an Arsenal hero.

Fans Reactions

A new signing doesn’t often has the fans worrying about him even before he has been out on the field for a minute. Kurzawa, however, has managed to stir up a storm among the Arsenal fans even before the club has announced his signing. While some are unable to understand why the club wants to sign a left-back with Sead Kolasinac and Kieran Tierney already in the squad, some others do hope that he can help Arsenal fix their leaky defence a bit!

If we're getting Kurzawa, then Kolasinac is probably off in the summer. Not sure what the added value is considering I do expect Kurzawa to be on a high wage too. Of course we will make something out of selling Kolasinac. But is this a transfer we really need?

I’ll be happy with Kurzawa as long as we get Bruno Guimaraes as well. The good overshadows the bad.

He's literally like an Arsenal player. Big enough name that people recognise but would get run ragged by the likes of Wolves players and other mid table teams.

Just so I'm clear, we're looking to sign a player who is ridiculously injury prone to cover for our very injury prone left-backs?

Is there any video for his errors? I'm just asking a friend

To all Arsenal fans reading this, Tierney is out for a long time with Kolasinac too injured, what do you make of this new fix at left-back, if not permanent, for the coming days?
