He was more than a solid player in my opinion. I thought he was a rolls Royce. I could never understand why he acted the dick towards us when he came back with Pompey etc

Piss aside, good transfer.
A box to box player they really needed. Maybe the best swiss player since Chapuisat.

Xhaka is going to have a few suspensions I feel. He is good and will fit the Prem well.

Ozil, Sanchez, Ramsey, Cazrola, Xhaka...sounds like Arsene is finally putting a good squad together.
gotta hope the typical Arsenal mid-season slump continues next season.

Time will tell.
I recall being told that we signed the wrong Spanish striker when we got Negredo and Spurs signed Soldado.

Yeah but one made a good contribution to a league title win and the other was renamed Loldado.

They do have a good squad, but their strikers are still Giroud and Welbeck. And as soon as the inevitable injuries hit them, they will be back playing Calum Chambers and Mikel Arteta.
